    One thing you hate so much?

    Willing Ignorance. When someone refuses to learn something because they "aren't technical" or think there's no reason to know it when it could obviously help them rather than having someone else do it for them. I mean for gods sake, changing your oil is neither hard nor expensive... infact...

    Your three wishes?

    1. To be made Biologically Immortal. Never aging, always the same age, forever... can still die to unnatural causes though. 2. A fortress built into a mountain with an engineering bay at least as large as a decent sized aircraft hanger and modern tools and equipment, all of it in my name...

    Is it okay to be cheap?

    Let me ask you this... Am I a cheapskate because I would rather make things myself or repair them to save a bunch of money? I'm sorta converting the money saved into time but for me it's more I'd rather not have them be what I rely on... when I can just rely on myself.

    Expressive Face?

    I'm far more expressive than I used to be... at one point I was repressing a lot and focused on simply remaining calm and neutral but I learned to get past it... still have people struggling with my emotions so I've been emulating stuff instead. It's great for mimicking stuff though to make...

    How honest should you be with your kids about your past?

    My past sounds like some epic journey... so probably just tell them the tale... A tale of going through hell, being forged by it, and coming out stronger, faster, smarter. taking on enemies, defeating enemies, and learning to tell the world where to shove it and never be held back or limited...

    What is your purpose?

    I'm going to paraphrase Conan here... To Build stuff. To see it come to life. To hear the lamentations of my doubters as they see the impossible made real.

    Chit Chat Zone

    I hate to say it but I've seen parrots, cats, hell I've heard a first hand account of an octopus opening a lock. Given that a bipedal child could probably open one if it's a turn key mechanism. It it's unlikely yes. If I were to use a subdermal tracker I'd want an nfc chip of the sort that...

    Chit Chat Zone

    Okay that right there? That's why I won't trust a lock by itself. It has to pass my own rigorous testing... and well I hate to say it but If I had a kid? They'd have a subdermal chip until they were old enough to be responsible... just in case. I know that seems dark and dystopian but the...

    Anyone into Crafts?

    Sewing and recently Leather crafting have been my jam when I'm not tinkering with technology. Case in point. I made this to handle storage while I'm working on my jeep or whatever I'm tinkering with... and as a general purpose utility storage. I call it. my Band-O-Gear.

    What's your battle theme?

    What's your battle theme?

    @Nebulous can't go wrong with a classic lol.

    What's your battle theme?

    If you could choose a song or anthem as your battle theme, what would it be? You know the kind of music that when the enemy hears it they know they're completely doomed. for me it would be one of the following. Either this version of Rock you like a hurricane. Or this version of He-man's theme.

    When using the bathroom,

    Rule#1 don't panic :p no matter what the situation there's always a solution if you know enough and are prepared enough. Given the situation in question it probably goes without saying but I hope you knew where your towel was XD.

    Adult Swim Severs Ties With ‘Rick And Morty’ Co-Creator Justin Roiland After Domestic Violence Charges; Voice Role Will Be Recast

    Anyone think Solar Opposites will be affected as well? Also according to the article he claims he's innocent as well. I wonder what the real truth is? 2020 was in the midst of a lot of #metoo stuff with tons of false allegations mixed in with the legitimate ones.

    House = money pits

    My house... but only because I like proving the world wrong and doing my own repairs. Self taught plumbing, electrical, hvac, appliance repair, etc. becuase why should I pay someone $400+ for a $20 part and an hour's worth of time?

    When using the bathroom,

    oh geebus. see I wouldn't let myself get stuck that like... keep various tools on my person when I'm up and about including a screwdriver... there's no deadbolt on the bathroom door but if there was and it was jammed? I'd disassemble the lock and get it open XD.
