Deviation Actions
Currently sitting at my desk at the American University of Armenia in Yerevan, bored, my last day teaching Creative Writing here was yesterday so I'm free to do whatever until I'm reassigned to a new internship next week in Vanadzor (and I swear I'll never teach teens again, ugh), and I got tagged by Wottagal0505 for this questionnaire thing, so why not? I guess I could be working on my fan fic...by the way I have been working on it diligently, just not at work.
And you know what, I'm going to tempt the internet powers that be by not tagging anyone, if you want to copy it, you can. Whatever.
I—You must post these rules.
II—Answer the tagger’s ten questions, then make ten of your own.
III—Select ten people and put their icons in this journal
IV—It is required that the tagged must make a journal entry. But if you don’t want to, say nothing. Silence is more preferable.
1. What’s your least favorite movie, and why? - That is a hard one. For a long time it was 102 Dalmatians, my sister and mother forced me to watch it when I was younger and I just HATED everything about it. I can't even remember it that well now, all I remember is there being an annoying parrot. Others I hate include The Cat in the Hat (Mike Myers version), The Lorax (CG version), Cars, Grease (yeah people can't understand why I don't LOVE that movie like everyone else).
2. Who is your least favorite superhero? - I don't know. I don't really even like that many superheroes. I like Batman but none of the others really appealed to me. There's a shorter list of superheroes I like. Batman, The Powerpuff Girls, Freakazoid, Darkwing Duck, Powdered Toast Man, Really Really Big Man...I think Batman is the only serious one I like.
3. While we’re at it, who’s your least favorite supervillain? - Aw but super-villains are so amusing. Hm, well in Batman, I always found the episodes of the Animated Series boring or out of place when they featured Clayface. He doesn't fit in with the Batman universe, he's too sci-fi. Not that there's anything wrong with that but I like Batman because he's a tinge more realistic than other superheroes. Killer Croc is the same thing.
4. You have become an animal overnight! Which would you be? - A dragon.
5. Is there a fandom or franchise you could not, for the life of you, understand, and if there is, why not? - I hope I don't piss anyone off, but grown adults who like Thomas the Tank Engine. I mean I'm not one to talk since I love cartoons and kids stuff, but I dunno, there's a limit to it. It has to be something that still entertains me on an intellectual adult level. And I've seen so many avid fans on the internet who do weird Youtube videos incorporating it with An American Tail and Winnie the Pooh and making some bizarre crossover...it's like what? Maybe I'm being somewhat hypocritical (as someone who likes writing crossover fan fics about cartoon characters) but I can't wrap my head around that fringe fandom. It's the same people who were vandalizing the American Tail wiki for a while.
6. You want to see something strange and mystical? - Maybe.
7. Which Avatar would you prefer, the bald kid or the blue kitty? - If by bald kid you mean Aang, then yes, bald kid. That show is awesome.
8. When is a croquet mallet like a billy club? - Because Poe wrote on both. Wait...wrong riddle.
9. What’s that noise? - Secretaries speaking Armenian in the same room as me.
10. Quick, a monster is heading your way and the only weapon you have is on your right side! What is it? - My laptop cord. Maybe I can strangle it.
The Tagger's questions...
1. Your reaction to/thoughts on some of the recent revelations on Gravity Falls (or whatever show you're watching now if you don't watch GF)? - I don't watch that show. I've been watching old episodes of Early Edition on Youtube though. The show where this guy gets tomorrow's newspaper and runs around Chicago trying to prevent disasters. The show ended in 2000 though. So, no recent revelations.
2. Bugs or Daffy? - This question is hard, because I hate those later episodes where Daffy's only characteristic is being jealous of Bugs, but then I do love Bugs, I just hate when he's being a dick to Daffy. I don't know, I feel bad about it but I kind of like Bugs' cartoons better, especially the 1940's ones.
3. While we’re at it, Mickey or Donald? - Donald, definitely. He reminds me of myself sometimes, when I let my anger make situations worse than they'd need to be if I'd remained calm. =/
4. What was the first movie you remember seeing? - If it counts as a movie, maybe the He-Man and She-Ra Christmas Special? I still have it recorded on an old VHS tape. I know the first movie I saw in theaters was the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
5. What's the number one thing you HAVE to do every summer? -I dunno. I hate summer, honestly. Complain about the heat, yeah that's it. Or relish in the knowledge that after June 21st every day is just a little bit shorter, and every night longer.
6. Shouldn't there be a place where nothing is naughty? Shouldn't there be a place where anything goes? Where all shouldn't, and can't, and won't, and musn't, and aren't evaporate, and fun's the only biz? - I don't trust humans enough. It would end in horror I'm sure.
7. If you were given the chance to know when and how you were going to die, would you take it? - I think I'm better off not knowing.
8. What superhero movie released since they became popular again do you think is the best one? - Since they became popular again...you mean like since the early 2000's I guess? I haven't really liked many of them. Although, the animated adaptation of The Dark Night Returns was awesome, and sorely under-rated. So that one. Under the Red Hood is a close second.
9. Annie, are you ok? Are you ok, Annie? - Ah that song. I do like Michael Jackson's music. And I liked it before he died and it became cool to say you liked his music. I like it best when remixed with Sonic the Hedgehog music.
10. What does your customized, badass weapon of choice look like? An arm-cannon sort of thing, I guess like what Mega Man uses.

1. Sega or Nintendo?
2. What's your favorite Disney movie and why?
3. What's your least favorite Disney movie and why?
4. What's your favorite song from the 1980's?

7. Who is the the most annoying cartoon character?

9. What country would you most like to travel to?
