Hey, everyone! In the public eye I'm a fairly stoic, quiet person who works at a hospital as a Diet Clerk. In the privacy of my home, or among certain friends, I'm a massive nerd who never grew up.

 

My basement is my "Nerd Cave". It consists of video games, anime/cartoons, comics/manga, figures/statues, and much more.

 

My biggest fandom is for the original Brave Little Toaster movie, which I collect as much of as I can find. I'm such a fantard over it I even got this tattoo:

I have two adorable guinea pigs named Dahlia and Iris after the third Phoenix Wright game:

For music I mostly listen to oldies, but I've got an embarrassingly large amount of Disney songs on my player as well. If I'm watching something, 90% of the time it's animated. When I'm not working, I'm currently watching the original Dragon Ball series uncut for the first time and replaying Persona 4: Golden when I get too burned out. 

 

I usually have a shipment of figures coming in every month from AmiAmi, so I hope to share my collections on a thread here sometime. I unfortunately have to be to work in less than an hour, so I thought I'd make this post and see what's being discussed elsewhere in this forum when I get home. I hope to fit in fairly well and hopefully won't be too annoying!

Welcome, you. Loving the guinea pigs, they make me nostalgic.

Hey-o!

 

Launch was pretty much my favorite female character from the DB universe. So, you've already got some points in my book.

I had guinea pigs when I was a younger boy. Do they squeak when they hear plastic bags rustle?

Anything that remotely sounds like a bag they go nuts over. They also listen for when the refrigerator is opened since they know their veggies are in there.

.......replaying Persona 4: Golden when I get too burned out. 

Hey same. I scored me an American copy as opposed to a EU version. Funny how certain words are in Spanish in this one. Best game I've played in awhile. Hopefully this time I can court Marie.

I felt terrible the first time around since the guide I used, for some odd reason, told me to get into a serious relationship with all the girls. Holy shit did I feel terrible on the Valentines Day segment that was added to this version! I spent most of my time with Ai, though. I really liked her character development and how she knows she's a bad person and wants to change that. I hate Rise, but I think I'm gonna go for her this time because of her Christmas item. I'm just bummed you can't date Kanji, LOL. 

 

Heh... At full volume, not so much. They're scared of the camera, so they're not at full power, but here's a dose of what I deal with:

Hahahaha. That would have been hilarious. I went for Rise because I dig musicians. I stayed loyal to her and got a good Valentines and Christmas special event. Technically this would be my 3rd play-through as I beat the original on the PS2.  This time I'm going to try max out all the social links instead of just the girls, I only discovered the tutoring SL like a month before the end of the game. lol At least I know what to do now. 

 

Guinea Pigs squeal like our car alarm. lol Dopeness.

My problem with Rise was that all she talked about was her showbiz career which I cared absolutely NOTHING about. To me it was one of the worst S. Links. I had Chie as my girlfriend my first PS2 play through and went with Naoto on the second since I screwed up and wasn't able to do it the first time. I just love her! I hate that Chie got a new VA for Golden because I just can't listen to her now; that voice is beyond obnoxious! 

 

Oh yeah. Unless you use a guide, some stuff is ridiculously obscure to figure out; it's why I find Persona games just as stressful as they are fun to me. I hate that I wouldn't be able to get everything if I just played without any assistance. The Tower S. Link is actually kind of adorable. Wait... So you didn't max out Adachi's or Kanji's? They're the best ones! 

 

The various noises they make are ridiculous. It's like the noises in old video games sometimes.
