-The Basics-
The basic things that everyone is dying to know!
Name: pippins_addict, Gillian
Age: 15
Story behind your username: I love Lord of the Rings, especially one hobbit, Pippin Took. You could say I'm addicted.
Origins: It came from New England, Red Sox Nation and home of the Patriots.
Current location: Rehoboth MA
-Your favorites-
List 5 favorites for each. Then pick one from each of those five and explain why it made the list.
Bands: Less Than Jake, My Chemical Romance, Dead Kennedys, Disturbed, Mindless Self Indulgence and so many more. I picked the Dead Kennedys because I came to love them inadvertantly when someone I had a crush on went into a rant about what "real" punk rock was. He mentioned this band, and I was curious. Now, I can't go without them, one of my nicknames (Gillo) is for their lead singer, Jello Biafra.
Songs: Kill the Poor - Dead Kennedys, Bury Me In Black - My Chemical Romance, Fearless Vampire Killers - Bad Brains, Kill Yourself - Mindless Self Indulgence, Meaning of Life - Disturbed. Bury Me In Black was my first illegal bootleg from the internet.
Movies: SLC Punk, Queen of the Damned, Interview With the Vampire, Lord of the Rings, Grease. SLC Punk is like a cult at my school, a big, Herion Bob worshipping cult.
Books: This Lullaby, Phantom of the Opera, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings. I read a lot, but I'm hard to please. I like plot complexities and characters with a lot angst.
-Free Time-
Free space to tell us what you do in your free time! Make sure you don't miss this one.
I write a ton. Literally. I'm working on a brick of a book called My Bloody Valentine. Hopefully, in the end it touches on the emotions of its' characters and pulls a reader in. It's based off of my own twisted ideas and more often than not, its' characters are my friends.
http://www.fictionpress.com/~poseurpunk That's my bio, hit the link to pull up my story list. I also write fan fiction, but I'm not proud of that...
And I write song lyrics. My brother attempting to get me to sing for his would be ska punk band so he can get his hands on said songs, they want originals over covers. So yes, I write, irk some of my friends, hang out with my friends, read, fight with my parents, take of my horses. I have my own gelding by the name of Danny Boy. He's an App, about 17.1 hands and four years old. We show in hand and hunter pace.
-The Old Days-
Ok, so we're getting a picture of you now, but what were you like when you were younger?
What was your favorite crayola crayon color? Black
Tell us a funny story from when you were in elementary school: I threw up or got hives every year until I was in 6th grade. Every single year without fail. That includes launching my breakfast (Raisin Bran) into my best friend's lunch box.
Go dig up a baby/childhood picture (if you can): I burned them all. And what I haven't destroyed, my mother has hidden.
-Speak Your Mind-
Tell us your opinions on these hot button topics. Answer as completely as you can, put some time into this!
Gay Rights: My mother, although not a leasbian herself, has many friends with quite a few gays since her divorce to my father, who is very anti-gay rights (comes with being a Christian Republican I guess). I feel people deserve the same rights everyone else gets. You can't pick who you fall in love with, so when you do, it shouldn't be so wrong to be proud of it.
Labels: I'm not overtly fond of labels, but sometimes they do simplify things. I have been called everything from an Emo to a Punker to a Metal Head. I'll never assign anyone a label, I'll wait for you to say what you consider yourself.
George W. Bush: *ahem* Get that biased asshole out of office. I don't like him, point blank. The war, the no gay rights, no abortion, the fact that I listen to way too much Dead Kennedys music, and he annoys me, thinking everything is just fine and dandy. We're in debt up to our eyeballs and he thinks we can go spend more money and dumb down the educational system.
Straight Edge: I don't know what that is. (and I still don't, someone want to explain what that is)
Abortion: Needed, by many women. My aunt's a bit of a hooker and has had quite a few herself. Plus, I don't want to have kids, but I don't want to a virgin forever now. I got kicked out of CCD for refusing to write an essay on how abortion was wrong...that and challenging everything there. I'm Atheist.
-Emo Reject-
So why do you want to be here, and why do you belong? Let's find out!
How did you find out about emo_rejects? I was searching for communities interested in Less Than Jake. This one seemed pretty cool, so I hit the Join button.
What made you want to apply? I wanted to joine cause there's a long running joke wtith one of my friends about being an emo reject.
Why do you consider yourself emo? I like emo bands, so I guess that's a good reason. But I'm also a little too emotional.
What music do you listen to that would make emo elitists cringe? Emo elitists I know despise my love for heavy metal, which is, believe me, great. And I love classic rock, ska and hardcore punk. Emo music's great, sure, but I like music with meaning, and punk rock does it for me. Metal is usually just violent. Unless it's Cradle of Filth, which is just twisted Bible passages.
What's your most dorky reject moment? The first time I wore combat boots with my bondage pants, I got the straps caught on the boots and promptly went down a flight of stairs. And the day I got my square frame glasses.
-And All That Jazz-
The stuff that every community wants from you.
Promote emo_rejects in another community, and show us the link: Community promoted @ gc_fans_. This isn't my computer, however, so I wasn't able to use a banner.
Post photos of yourself, no less than 2, no more than 5:
Some of my nonstop doodling, I love to draw the band I like. This is some bad GC work.
