1. You lurked for quite a while on WWE-Club and PubTalkForum before finally joining us and making your voice heard. What got you to finally join in on the action?
I rarely touched WWE-Club actually... it didn't seem very nice. I guess that's why I ended up on here so much - it was a cool place to hang about. I'm a habitual lurker; I don't usually join in at all!
2. Be honest: you were judging us the entire time, weren't you?
Yeah, but I'm in an almost constant state of judging everyone and everything, so I wouldn't feel too bad about that. And PubTalk came out on top there, so no harm, right?
3. What's something about you that many of us might not know about you, with you being a relatively new member here?
I have a tendency, in person, to speak in references; and when combined with my other tendency to remember obscure and useless information, this means that I often get the "You're clearly insane, and I don't understand a word you're saying" look.
I also spook easily, and am kind of a huge nerd.
4. By now, most people here know that you are engaged to Hanley!. You guys have a lot of similar opinions on hot-button issues and wrestling issues alike. But what are some areas where your opinions diverge?
Ooo... we have overlapping, but different tastes in most media. I'm probably a bit more vehement about my opinions, also. And he doesn't care much about the bouquet toss at weddings, but I hate it with a passion.
5. Along the same lines, what would you say is the one issue you're most passionate about? We've seen you engage in some great debates on the site in your time here already, so it'd be cool to get a bit more insight into what makes you tick.
Cultivating a response to the world that is both reasonable and compassionate? In specifics, probably feminism- and LGBT-related issues are what I'm most interested in. Aside from pop-culture fluff, obviously.
6. You are the first female Member of the Month and one of the few women we have active on our site at the moment (I believe there are like, four others). Does it ever feel like you're outnumbered/out of place?
Maybe? After all, I haven't seen the girls posting random objectifying pictures of men on here.
Although I'm kind of used to being outnumbered by those of the male persuasion, so it doesn't really bother me - I grew up with three brothers, went to predominantly male secondary school, and most of my friends are guys.
7. Standard question for Member of the Month: you get to pick three people from The Pub to go out on the town with. Who do you choose and why? Steve does not count.
I'm so telling him you said that. First you want him dead, and now this! - for shame.
Firstly, I must choose Porkchop on account of his avatar being so cute - I therefore assume that he dresses all fluffy - and I get huggy when inebriated. I bet he'd be a great random conversationalist too - like, what if cows secretly tasted so good to encourage our breeding them in massive amounts to some evil end? I'd want his take on this.
Then Str8Shooter, and you too Tim, for being good general hang-out personages who are laid back and can hold down their end of an in-depth discussion.
Basically, a good 'long night of conversation which is becoming progressively more drunken' crowd.
8. Are there any improvements you'd like to see made to the site?
More emoticons! I wants my confused-face smiley.
9. Anything else you'd like to say? The floor is yours!!
I dunno... I like it here, you guys are great. Well done on that.
