Lindstrom Knows Everything, everything that matters, anyway Options

[Lindstrom]

Depends where I'm going. On a normal day, probably about a half hour to 45 minutes, to eat, shower, get dressed, etc. If I know I'm going to get dirty (like if I'm going to a salt marsh or something), I save the shower for later cuz I'll need one when I get home. I always eat breakfast though.

[IdlersDream]

What do you usually eat for breakfast? Or is it different everyday?

[Lindstrom]

When I lived in California, I ate all kinds of different things, like French toast, bacon, fruit, cereal, bagels, whatever I felt like. At home, though, I only can have cereal because the fridge is overtaken by the rest of my family. They tend to buy large amounts of food that they can't before it all spoils, and anything I buy either gets thrown out cuz they think it went bad, pushed into the back where it actually goes bad, or someone eats it and they decide they like it and will eat all of it before I get to it.

When was the last time you and most of your family sat around and had dinner together?

[Lindstrom]

On Easter, we went out to dinner with our grandmother, though my dad wasn't there (he hardly ever leaves the house, and never ever goes out to a restaurant). My mom, grandmother, and one of my brothers love going out to eat so pretty much any birthday or other occasion is a good enough reason for us to go somewhere good. I'd say the whole "eat as a family" thing only happens because of my grandmother, since we never do anything like that if she isn't involved.

What does your father do for a living?

[Lindstrom]

He's an accountant, mostly doing other peoples' taxes for them. I have no idea how much he makes, but it has to be good since he's pretty carefree with his money.

Ever been to a funeral?

...Just an extra few characters...

[Lindstrom]

Yeah, plenty. My dad's side of the family is pretty much all dead due to diabetes, smoking, and general unhealthiness, so that was a bunch right there. On my mom's side though, we're very long-lived and healthy, my grandfather died from an accident and my great aunt died from Alzheimer's. Anyway I'm pretty accepting of death so while a lot of people get pretty teary and upset I'm quite composed.

[Hasfusel]

Have you ever played a Phoenix Wright game?

[Lindstrom]

no

[Hasfusel]

Definately do so if you ever find the first one for anything less than about $25. You're missing out on a lot.

Do you have any particular objectives for this year?

[Lindstrom]

I'll try it if you try a Castlevania game.

Not particularly, I don't plan for much. When I plan, things don't work. If I don't plan, I am heavily rewarded.

[Hasfusel]

I own two Castlevania games and used to own a third. It's awesome. I plan to merge the two series. And when Dracula's been defeated, he can look forwards to being prosecuted to the full extent of the justice system.

Do you have a favourite food?

[Lindstrom]

Which ones do you have?

Favorite food: banana bread

[Hasfusel]

Aria of Sorrow, Lament of Innocence, used to have Symphony of the Night.

Banana bread is awesome. Do you have an ideal drink to go with it?

[Lindstrom]

Didn't play Aria of Sorrow, Lament of Innocence was pretty neat but kind of... lacking. I think it served well as a bridge into 3D and after playing Curse of Darkness you could tell that they were aware of most of their mistakes, but still the level layouts were kind of uninteresting. Symphony of the Night was fun but kind of easy, though Richter mode was pretty damn awesome. Still though, the bosses were mostly jokes. Anyway you will earn bonus points if you play Rondo of Blood, and super ultra mega points if you beat it as Richter.

Water.

How often do you drink alcohol? Also, are you more of a 'casual' drinker or do you only drink to get drunk?

[Lindstrom]

Not very often, I don't drink alone or with people I can't stand, or if I know I'm going to have to drive or something. Pretty much only when I'm hanging out with specific kinds of people, and I usually just drink til whatever feels right, regardless of how drunk I get or if I get drunk at all. I have a good gauge of how much I can handle.

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

Speaking of alcohol, when did you accquire a taste for it? I've had a few sips of beer, but it always tastes so dry to me, and my sister and her fiance says you just get a taste for it when you get older, but I was just wondering when I could learn to tolerate the stuff. Not that I plan to drink alot, but something that interests me on if I learn to like something as dry as that, then what else might I accquire a taste for?
