That is a toughy! Treatment of (low-class, though also high-class) women in history has not exactly been as stellar (in some coupled areas and times yes, but that's more the minority) as it is now. So...I guess I would have to be a man for this or I don't think I'd quite like it. Far as times go... Somewhere within the sphere of the Ancient world most definitely. The time of Athens as a large power, Bablyon or the Three Kingdoms period (and of course in those locations unless I want to be...I don't even know what was going on over here in NA East Coast at that time, probably not much). I know, the latter two, not particularly peaceful! But I've always been intrigued by "great" times where merit can take you far and that happened most in the Ancient world during war, what can be said?

For a definitive answer...some time in Athens (pre-Peloponnesian War most likely). No one likes ending their life on a pike up some forsaken mountain or as a pincushion in a ditch at the base of some fortification. Or, well, if anyone does, I'm not one of those people?

Haha, this one ._. It's so wildly...inappropriate. And I'm sure people hate it for using Sesame Street. But XD It never fails to make me laugh. There's just...like NOTHING it can really be applied to XD Sometimes I just use it anyway though because I want to share the funny.

I would like to have 99999 HP in life. 99999 instead of 999 or 9999 because those boss hp caps seem to be fairly obsolete anymore *shakes fist at games*

Sloth. I'm laaaaaazy. Maybe gluttony if you metaphorically make books food...or something. Pride and anger come second (they sort of go hand in hand for me...). And then I guess greed is third? Sort of? Can't really think of anything that I'm like "NEED MOAR" and refuse to share. Lust no. Envy nnnnh, not really. I sometimes think for five seconds "I wish I had that" or something, but even then it's more about the thing than actually being envious of the person. Personally I like the things I have best haha--guess that makes me conceited?

This is a recommendation post!

Recommend to me anything--a fanfic, a show, a movie, anime, game, manga, book, artist, webcomic... Yea, stuff like that.

Only things I demand request you keep in mind in your recommendations are:

Ω It needs to be in English. (which I guess crosses out doujinshi) I'm not translating Japanese/French/German/Esperanto/ect.

Ω It cannot feature pedophilia (which I don't think is a problem among anyone I know, but just saying! No pedo vibes!).

Apparently I look like crap. Danny said I'm red in the face--anyways I got sent home.

The sleep button is not the shutdown button, nnnnnnnngh.

I am so smart at three in the morning it hurts. Sorry guys.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees, party diversity is good! I admit the obvious line between "young" member and "older" members in XII was something I liked. Anyways Sazh looks cool and ♥ the chicobo. He's probably the comic relief character, but still! It's something, so.

I don't like most kinds of yogurt.

I don't think I'm ever going to get to this update I haven't gotten to yet.

Flip.

One vacation I spent the whole way back on the plane sick with food poisoning? But I had to sit in my seat because we were gaining altitude and puke in a bag someone gave me--which was kind of horrifically embarassing because I was on the aisle seat and people could see me tossing... We ended up having to switch to another flight halfway there and I had to keep stopping as we walked through the airport to puke in things (we were out of bags)--I still feel really bad for the guy who was collecting garbage for puking in his bin and stuff...he was not happy. Not that I'd be happy if some random girl ran up and puked in my collection bin either.

I drew that in five minutes, I'm not sure if I should be proud or horrified.

Comment with the name of a character from one of my fandoms. I will tell you three things that character received in his or her Christmas stocking, and three of that character's New Year's resolutions.

Black girl #1: I'm only tuning in tonight in the hope Obama accepts the oath of office with a "sho nuff," then crotch walks down Pennsylvania Avenue.
Black girl #2: Girl, you did not just say that.
Black girl #1: I did.
