    Poll: do you consider gaming to be a life style?

    Well... kinda, I guess. I mean, not for me, and not for most people, I'd think. But then you get people like my brother who are obsessed, and while obsession may not equate a lifestyle, he's made his life revolve around gaming, so it's become one.

    Do you enjoy your job?

    Yeah, it'd be safe to say I enjoy my job. I'm a... well... I don't know what the hell my job title is, but I work for two museums owned by the same charity. One is awesome (it's for the RRS Discovery, if anyone's ever heard of that) and the other (an ex-jute mill) wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't...

    Favourite Word?

    Delectable (I tend to apply it to women more than I do food. Still works). Balls, which is the closest I get to swearing when I'm not enraged. Searing. I don't know why. (captcha: siowe word)

    what's your IQ score?

    The average of my online tests is 132, taking into account I struggle with the numerical ones, and a few others, because of my dyscalculia. So, really, it doesn't say much at all. I'd love to get officially tested if there's one out there that caters for dyscalculic people. Should be if there's...

    Poll: Should There be Gay Characters in Kid's Shows/Films?

    Ok, as much as it really irks me to say, on a strictly biological/scientific level I can't argue with you that much, although I will say humanity wouldn't suffer if hetero and homosexuality were of more equal proportions, not by a long shot. I also don't think homosexuality will die out either...

    Would you still play a game if the main character was gay?

    Yes. Character sexuality doesn't make a blind bit of difference to me. It's the character as a whole I look at. Flat, lifeless, cardboard characters are no fun whatsoever, regardless of sexuality, as well-rounded characters are enjoyable, again, regardless of sexuality.

    What does your screen name mean?

    Well... I like cacti a lot, and I'm interested in psychology. I had a conversation about the two with a friend who ended up saying I had a cacti complex. It just went from there. captcha - problem berinspe (given the context, maybe trying to tell me something...)

    Poll: Should There be Gay Characters in Kid's Shows/Films?

    Pretty much these two comments. Seriously, why not? It's a part of life. There always will be people who aren't heterosexual, and right now we're kind of shoved to the back of things like this in case it offends some poor sensitive soul. Homosexuality is a normal thing, so why not treat it as...

    i want to get to know some nice scottish people

    Scottish here, and nice enough, I think, anyway... heh, a positively lovely person compared to the few you've been unfortunate enough to meet anyway. Pity you had to meet the idiots first and get such a bad impression of us as a whole.

    What is your greatest fear?

    Insects and arachnids and physical contact with strangers (even bumping into someone on the street gets me panicky...).

    Poll: Mental disorders and you: Would you get rid of it if you could?

    No, never. As hard as my disorders and illnesses have made my life at times, they've become a part of me, and through having them my life has come out at an amazing place I don't believe I'd be at had I never had them. I don't believe I'd continue as I intend to if I didn't have them either...

    What is your Zodiac Sign?

    In that case, you can take this as a promise that I will learn more about it. Off to the library I go :)

    What is your Zodiac Sign?

    In that case, I hold my hands up, plead ignorance, and apologise for any offence I've caused. I think I've made it clear that I don't know that much about astrology at all, despite my interest in the subject. It's something I keep meaning to find out more about, but never quite seemed to find...

    Still think you think straight even AFTER the philosophical health check, think again

    1. Disagree 2. Agree 3. Not always, so for the sake of simplicity I'm disagreeing 4. Agree 5. Agree 6. Agree 7. Agree 8. Disagree 9. Disagree 10. Agree, though there are some religious issues to consider when it comes to church (churches of any religion, I should probably say) marriages

    What is your Zodiac Sign?

    I stick with the old one, making me a Cancer. Does it describe me accurately? Well, given that most descriptions of the sign seem to add up to contradictory, moody, overly sensitive, bitchy individuals then absolutely. I can't judge myself against the positive aspects of the sign because I...
