Stow the violence, Jayne. OP: If you felt ill at ease, inarticulate, et cetera, then evidently you two didn't immediately click. With proper clicking both parties should be confident and have plenty to talk about, don't take it all as your failing if the fit wasn't right. Although, as...

I like detail, it feels more immersive and quirky.

Alex the Kidd, because it was built into my Sega Master System.

A whole bunch of Phoenix Downs.

I haven't had mine out yet, they're coming through and all but haven't given me any problems. I'd rather go under, though. At least dentistry is free for me, my boyfriend lives in the US and had to pay about $1000 just to have his 4 wisdom teeth removed.

I legally changed my name to Anastasia, so yeah, I like it.

Methinks someone needs a little refresher course in good manners. I could have blathered on about Dickens, Robert Heinlein or Nabokov, but none of their characters are particularly a favourite. Having eclectic reading taste doesn't mean I don't read anything snobbier, and certainly isn't grounds...

Sometimes it's obsession, other times I suppose it's stupidity. There was a story about a young boy who died of heart failure after playing for an entire weekend, because his mother was out working two jobs and wasn't home to tell him to go to bed or eat dinner, etc. If you need to be reminded...

I do it in art a lot. I can be all in-the-mood to start on some commissioned piece and get everything out and begin in gusto, and then realise I've made everyone look like a horse and i have to spend hours fixing it and nudging every little feature around slightly. In games I tend to fail...

I think it depends where you are. Sometimes people in London can be rude, but then everytime I've been, even in busy areas people have been polite to me, given me directions or opened doors for me, when the stereotype is that busy London people are rude, etc. In France, people in touristy cities...
