Interview: Faye

Note: This interview was done for no particular reason. The questions were thought up of randomly. This interview was done over Yahoo! Instant Messanger, and will be presented in that format.

If you are offended by anything you read, you have my apologies for my bad question-making-up skills, but you are not to go bother Faye about it.

In other words, deal with it.

Thank you.

Rosiel Leonhardt: If Nietzsche were to go to Heaven when he died, what do you think God would have said to him?

Faye: I suppose if I were God, I'd just say "Well, fuck you!" But I doubt God would say fuck you.

Rosiel Leonhardt: But why would He say that, then?

Faye: Because I'd be all "Haha you were wrong. You suck." *Happy dance of God*

Rosiel Leonhardt: In your opinion, why can't humans find a common ground and live peacefully, even though we understand that we'll eventually kill ourselves if we don't?

Faye: It's hard to pinpoint one reason that I would want to say. There are many reasons. Fear, the natural feeling many people have to fight and survive, some rivelries are ancient and ingrained in people's minds.

Rosiel Leonhardt: Do you think humans will be able to stop themselves, or will we all blow ourselves into Oblivion?

Faye: I'm inclined to believe the second option. Humans are self-destructive in more then one way. Some are not avoidable, either.

Rosiel Leonhardt: If you were part of a culture that frequently ate dogs and cats, would you be able to have one as a pet?

Faye: That's too hard to answer. I don't come from a culture that does and I've grown up with cats and dogs always with me. The only way I know to think is "I love them" I can't even imagine eating a cat or a dog.

Rosiel Leonhardt: If you came into the sudden possession of a pet penguin, what would you name him or her?

Faye: I suppose that would depend upon the penguin... Maybe... Something cheesy that rhymed with penguin. Or some obnoxiously long name, dissproportionate to the size of the penguin... All really grand names... That's always fun. William Ceaser Alexander Neville Ferguson Campbell Morgan and insert my last name at the time. That took a long time to come up with. I had to use google. xD

Rosiel Leonhardt: What comes to mind when you hear the words, "Psychotic Gecko"?

Faye: Geico.

Rosiel Leonhardt: Why?

Faye: Because of the Geico Gecko.

Rosiel Leonhardt: He's psychotic?

Faye: That depends on how you view a talking gecko with an accent who does commercials and sells car insurance... And drive a tiny car. But honestly, gecko = geico so easily, I barely consider the psychotic part.

Rosiel Leonhardt: Who is your favorite author in the Horror/Suspense genre?

Faye: I don't have one. I don't know it well enough.

Rosiel Leonhardt: What about Stephen King?

Faye: I like Stephen King, but I don't really know enough authors who write that sort of thing to say he's my favorite.

Rosiel Leonhardt: If you were a character in one of his stories, would you be one of the characters that died, or one of the characters that lived?

Faye: I think I'd rather be one that died. Get it all over with. Besides, it's more fun.

Rosiel Leonhardt: How would you die?

Faye: I'd hope in some noteworthy way.

Rosiel Leonhardt: How would you react if you woke up one day to find yourself the opposite sex of what you are?

Faye: I'd probably be fucking scared to death. Firstly, I'd have to try to accept that it was possible to wake up suddenly the opposite sex, then I'd have to accept I was. Much yelling and cursing. I like being female. I like my boobs. I wouldn't be pleased.

Rosiel Leonhardt: What if I were to hit on you while you were in that state?

Faye: Well I just dont' know what I'd do or say. Normally I'd flirt. xD Because I am a flirt. But as a guy? I don't know if I'd even be able to function. xD

Rosiel Leonhardt: What would you do with me if by some weird legal binding, it turned out that I was your slave for life, and there was nothing I could do to get out of it?

Faye: I'm assuming I wouldn't be able to choose to free you myself... I'd not treat you as a slave. It would be like a fake title.

Rosiel Leonhardt: Suppose that I was required to stay with you, in order to perform whatever tasks were assigned to me, and since I am unable to get a job in that situation, you had to feed me and clothe me?

Faye: Then I would. I wouldn't really expect anything [from you].

Rosiel Leonhardt: I'm sure that I would have to do some work so that the expense of keeping me around would be worth it. I eat a lot.

Faye: That's alright. >.<

Philadelphia

Well, nothing much to this blog post, and unfortunately, there may not be more for some time yet. I've just moved to Philadephia and things are... a little different here. In fact, now that I think about it, it's a great setting for one of my time-honored rants. And so rant I shall.

People and driving. People in each state complain about other drivers, and I understand that PA is probably not one of the worst states, nor is Philadephia one of the worst areas (I believe Washington DC holds #1), but it's pretty fucking bad. I was born in a city, and lived most of my life in a city, but in a different country. I'm from Russia, and there, if you can afford a car, you're pretty fucking careful with it.

Buying a car in Russia is extremely expensive. Most people buy a car in the United States (I've even heard of a few buying them from Germany or England, but I imagine that buying from there would be even more expensive than just buying in Russia), then ferrying it over to Russia, and then it's still a lot cheaper.

People also drive better there, in general. Our test for obtaining a driver's liscense is a lot harder than anything in the States, and it's a lot less stupid, too. They don't test you on if you remember why the color of this sign is red or green. They actually test you on your driving ability, especially in bad weather. If Mother Nature won't aid the test, they have things to simulate ice, snow, and rain.

Now, in America, on the other hand... people don't really care. I'm willing to bet that a good 70% of the population can't drive properly, and for some reason, people in the city just assume that because they're in the city, the rules and laws of the road don't apply anymore. While I will rant and rave that most of it is the fault of the idiots who are behind the wheel, not all of it is. Sometimes, I think it's just a bad planning out of the roads and such.

For example. The famous, dangerous, and trecherous Left Hand Turn. In Maryland, on the crossing-light, people making a left hand turn could make the turn as soon as the light was green, providing that there was no flow of opposing traffic, which is extremely unlikely. They were also given an arrow, which had opposing traffic stop and allowed the person to comfortably and safely make a left-hand turn.

But no... where they actually NEED to have something like that, like the FUCKING CITY, they don't. Idiots.

The prices in PA are A LOT lower than they are in Maryland, and the food is just as good, if not better. For exmaple, buying ground beef was a problem in Maryland, especially in some of the less expensive stores. I like making beef cutlets and tacos sometimes, and since I want them to taste good, I buy the best grade ground beef there is.

What those assholes do in Maryland is this: They take the old groun beef, ball it up, and then they cover it with the fresh, new, good-looking ground beef, package it up, and sell it. Doesn't always matter where I buy from. They do it in Giant, Safeway, Superfresh, Food Lion, etc. That's not just cheap, it's also dangerous. Ground anything, whether it's beef, pork, chicken, or turkey, is more likely to have bacteria and all sorts of nasty crap, because it's more fucking processed.

They don't do that here, in Philly. I bought some ground beef, opened it up, and was amazed. Let's see... what else. I like eating Stouffer's creamed spinich thingy. In Maryland (Howard County, folks) the price for one such small package is about $3.89, $2.99 if it's on sale. Here, in Philly, without a sale, it cost me $1.56. FOR THE SAME FUCKING THING. And this list can go on and on.

I mean, I understand that people in Maryland make more money than they do in Pennsylvania, but not by much!

And that's all for today, folks. On the next episode of Rosiel Rants!, we will have a guest: Fellow Blogger, Faye! We'll even have interview questions, and there will be a nice little sampling of her perfected rants. Don't forget to visit her blog, linked here in the Other Blogs section of the site.

Over and out.
