best interview yet! funniest too, i think.

Lancer · March 20, 2002, 00:36

All I have to say is...

Salamatatoodeeebadoootyyyy!

Just to get even for all those meaningless, jibberish thread titles in the OT.

ravagon · March 20, 2002, 02:00

Very amusing interview.

Poor DanQ. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

Lancer · March 20, 2002, 03:58

That's right ravagon, Dan, how about doing an interview? As owner of Apolyton...along with that other fella, what's his name, the interview would be very interesting to me and others I'm sure. Waddayasay?

Keygen · March 20, 2002, 06:10

Yeah, it was funny indeed

Good interview Stefu

BTW, could I have the Markos b-l-o-w-u-p doll?

Urban Ranger · March 20, 2002, 10:15

Whoa, that smug looking smuck is Stefu?

MikeH · March 20, 2002, 11:03

I got a mention.

Gramphos · March 20, 2002, 11:37

You know, I got the banana thing first time you said it...

Stefu · March 20, 2002, 13:25

And now, the man, the myth, the masturbator, that's right, ME, will answer your stupid questions!

Gasmaske: Male or female?

If you don't know already, look down your trousers. If you see two eggs and a sausage, you're a man, if you see... mysterious object, you're a woman.

Gasmaske: Spit or swallow?

Swallow, naturally. While swallow is not one of birds I eat daily, chicken being always the trusty choice, it is still alive and meaty, and I'd eat it much rather than eating spit. Especially someone else's spit.

Anyone who tries to make double entrende's based on that is guilty of piscicide in a barrel.

MrWhereItsAt: Are you getting enough oxygen?

Yes.

That reminds me. Why do you English-speaking brain-damages insist on giving chemicals stupid names? I mean, sodium and potassium? Who came up with those? You can't help but think "Sodomium" or "Sodoffium" every time you see name sodium, and "potassium" just makes you think Dan Quayle would likely spell it "potassiume." They're natrium and kalium, folks! NaCl is natrium chloride, not sodium chloride! I mean, Na=natrium, K=kalium, what the fjock is so hard about that?

MrWhereItsAt: What is your secret identity?

At day, I'm John Ashcroft, mildly mannered fundamentalist nut who is Attorney General of United States. However, at night, I'm Stefu, the funny Finn of... of... Fenia!

In case you're wondering who George W. Bush is, one word should set you straight: ottok.

MrWhereItsAt: Who is Stefu and why should he/she be interviewed?

I'm John Ashcroft and should be interviewed because otherwise I'll slip hardcore pornography in Solver's computer and then have my brownshirts arrest him. OK, I'm not really John Ashcroft. I'm his live-in gay lover.

Chris 62: Is that gibberish you call Finn an actual langauge, or are you just joshing us?

All I have to say as reply to that is: Huunaja kirstaa rehnikkää kortosta ernikisti.

BeBro: Who made the troll song?

I did. It's based on log song from Ren & Stimpy. It's log, log, it's big and heavy and wood!

Come to think of it, that sounds dirty.

CtG: are you a cantalope?

Haha! America boy misspelled cantaloupe!

Gasmaske: legs, arse or tits?

Look, Gasmaske, you are obviously very confused young ???, so here is some advice you'll need later on:

1. You aren't supposed to get the moonies. Go see a doctor. And no, they aren't supposed to be blue like in that commercial.
2. You aren't supposed to get the hangy things in with the blood-filled thing. And you won't get many chances to use this knowledge, I'll wager.
3. No, when you are in prison, person named "Flagpole Flaganan" isn't a good friend if you want to protect your arse's virginity.

DarkCloud: Do you have a database of information of other posters stored secretly on your desktop to be released at a later date to defame many such as the future politician "Bob Dornan/History049"?

Believe it or not, I once thought of this. Then I decided not to. Not because of ethics or anything, but because I'm lazy.

In fact, I'm so lazy I'm going to stop answering stupid questions for now. Maybe later.

Solver · March 20, 2002, 14:08

Good ones, Stefu! I do now have the proof that you really know how to make the masses laugh.

Just wait till you get the Ming interview... an impressive piece of modern culture

.

Hueij · March 20, 2002, 20:45

Hmm, mixed feelings...

Besides the fact that Fins should use "the, a and and" more (can't think of the right term here), Stefu tries to be funny too much. We all know he can be a laugh, but I hoped to learn more about the real guy.

Another thing, I hate it when other people mix their comments in an interview.

DanQ · March 20, 2002, 23:10

As soon as Solver asks and is able to pencil me in, by all means I will be glad to participate in an interview.

Dan; Apolyton CS

Lancer · March 20, 2002, 23:11

When you consider it was done by a Fin it's really excellent!

Lancer · March 20, 2002, 23:13

Dan, you posted that one minute before my post...after a whole day in which niether of us posted! Amazing...

Solver, screw Ming, WE WANT DAN!

(Sorry Ming)

Solver, when can Dan be scheduled?

Great interview!
The funniest yet!

Though the Lazarus section was a bit vulgar

Oh, and Dan/Solver, The "C" in Cloud is capitalized

If you can be bothered to correct it

Quote:

That's for Markos to decide [and me; on that front, the decision has already been made not to cover SG -- DanQ].

I see that Dan is trying to reclaim his once lofty position

Quote:

AnnC's Secret Diary was very therapeutic for me to write

I second that

Good email circular

and antoher fix:

Quote:

Solver: What do you use to make your smilies?
Stefu: MGI Photosuite. Might not be the best program, but donsarn it, it's what I got. I used Animagic to animate them, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

Apolyton banana thing got started with a poll which asked whether people wanted more nonsensical options in polls. Amongst choices were "Banana", "MikeH", and "I have weasels in my trousers." If I was to choose, I'd go with weasels. Not in trousers, since that's job better left to ferrets, but as nonsensical option. O' well.

Somehow I think this got transplanted.

And a last one:

Quote:

Solver: What is your opinion about no [multiplayer] in CivIII?
XStefu: Well, it'd be nice, certainly. I mean, without military police units, how do they keep order amongst regular units? But I digress from my topic, which was MP, which can only mean multiplayer. I'm not particularily bothered about lack of MP, to tell you the truth, since I most likely wouldn't use it. Then again, I might, SO PUT IT IN THERE INSTANTLY GRRMH MURGH!

Who's this "XStefu" fellow? He seems to have replaced Stefu a few times

I want to know about "STEFU" not "XSTEFU" !!! I don't want an imitation

Good job

And Good interview

DanQ · March 21, 2002, 01:00

These corrections, and request, that DarkCloud has pointed out/made have been done.

Thanks for answering my questions Stefu and I liked the interview.

What? You need to have an omelette between your legs to be a man? I trulely didn't know that

OK, don't worry, we can handle words like testicles & penis

Hey, perhaps we should seriously put Dan as the 10th interviewed

Solver · March 21, 2002, 10:14

Just checked, I got no XStefu in my document. Dan must have screwed this up (sorry Dan).

As for the interview with Dan, I got #10 reserved, but I guess I could postpone #11 for that. So, tentatively, we can have Dan for the #11 spot. I will want some questions from Markos there, as they're the owners, and will try to beat everything out of Dan!

Dan, prepare

.

Keygen, your omlettes are not tasty! This is not a sex site.

DanQ · March 21, 2002, 12:23

I never said that they the "XStefu"'s etc. were your fault, Solver, and I certainly did not mean to leave that impression so I will clarify and confirm that they were ever so minor oversights on my part that were quickly corrected upon learning of them. There is no reason for you to apologize.

On a more light-hearted note, I am honoured to be slotted for "FoA" Interview #11 (tentatively).

Solver · March 21, 2002, 12:43

Dan, the masses, the masses, they want you #10. Just read that thread Plead for Dan, hehe.

Thank you for taking the time to fixthose corrections, including my name

Come on Solver- DanQ for #10? He deserves the honor!

Solver: How much time does it take for a smilie?
Stefu: About 5 minutes for animated smiley, about 20 minuted for a non-animated smiley. And just for the record, "it" takes about a minute for a smiley. Been tested.

1. Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?
2. Isn't it supposed to be minutes and not minuted?
3. Isn't it spelled smilie ?

H Tower · March 24, 2002, 17:58

you still haven't answered my question!

when are you going to get aim so you can recieve anime shop?

Stefu · March 24, 2002, 18:10

Oh, Zopperoni sent me a link for another animation program.
