The BEST thing about it was that gun that shot razors...

You could do the a secondary fire and then have control of the razor mid air, then JUST as it's about to hit them, angle it up and hit them in the neck... BAM, head off.

Had to be soo precise.

Am i thinking of the right game?

Nah, I like real literature.

:sorry:

So basically anything pre-1950.

i can enjoy some somewhat more classical stuff, but i'm definitely a sucker for pop-lit.  pop-lit is easy.  it's like watching a movie in my brain.  sometimes i'll have a tendency to get a bit ADD with literature that actually requires thought.  that's not to say i can't enjoy it, because i certainly can.  but it requires me to be in a certain mindset, whereas i could pick up pop-lit pretty much any time without fear of accidentally nodding off.

haha.....i suppose it's fair enough to say that.  BUT, there is some sophisticated stuff in there, and they get more adult as you go on.  tons of philosophical, mythological, astronomy and so on. 

im into classical literature as well.   

actually for my book category there should be a sub category: Hesse.  i totally geek out on his.

also i should add film/cinema to my list.

actually, i am a dork about pretty much anything i am interested in/passionate about.

I love books and prefer to buy books instead or reading them online. I'm mostly only into Non-fiction books. I have kept most of textbooks from high school and like to read through them and do the section reviews to keep the information sharp in my mind.

  I love Lord of the Rings and almost anything that has to do with that sort of theme. I have been wanting to buy various Lord of the Rings collector items since I read the books. Something about that kind of early war-fare is very cool to me. All the early weaponry is fucking badass.
  Xena is another thing I still really like thats related to the whole love of medieval type war-fare. I actually bought some boots because they reminded me of Gabriella's boots in the show. Amazons are the shit. I love the brutal sword fights, early catapults, maces, chain flails, caltrops although theyre mean because they hurt horses :frown:.

  I love all things equine. I love reading about horses, horse breeds, horse breeding, equine history etc. I've always wanted to have a horse or two that I could show in Hunter/Jumper horse shows but also be able to gallop freely in open fields, bare back. Its absolute freedom to me and its what makes me happier than anything else in the world.


  I love mythology. Greek, Roman, Russian, African, Native American, etc. Its really interesting to me because it shows how the culture was, their beliefs, and way of life among other things.

  I love history.

  I've recently really got into collecting heady artistic pipes. I really love glass blowing and actually want to give it a shot myself now. I love silver and gold fuming. Kevin Nail, Kenan Tiemeyer, and Maka B are some of my favorite glass blowers.

  I love mushrooms and plants but I think that just goes with my love of science and everything pertaining to the natural world.

Short add-ons:
Psychology and psychopharmacology
Neurosciences
Philosophy
Sci-Fi
DIY
Owls and Big Cats


Thats really I can think of atm. This post came out much longer than I originally intended. :blush:
