First of all, I'm sad that this is the last Know Your Temps session, but all good things must come to an end. I suspect "James Bond will be back in... Know Your Temps II: Electric Boogaloo!" but we'll just have to wait and see. In the meantime, thank you [M]artin, for the awesome topic(s), you've done a good thing. I'm sure KYT qualifies as a Legendary Topic in the Wiki.. I'll see what I can do.

Now, onward to the questions.

1. You've been a member of GBAtemp a relatively short time, but have been quite active and entertaining. What drew you to the 'temp, and had you been lurking as a non-member for a while before signing up?

2. Do you see GBAtemp as more of a gaming site, or more of a social site, or both.

3. How's it feel being the last guy on the KYT?

4. What percentage of the previous KYT sessions have you read?

 

I know that there's something to be said about you being the last KYT... but I'm really bad at compliments / saying nice things to people so I think I'll stick to asking questions.

1) You're 17 so I'm going to assume you're in High school. Are you a Junior or Senior?
2) What are your 3 favorite anime? Assuming that you like Samurai Champloo since its in your sig.
3) Do you prefer to be serious, funny, or act stupid?
4) What do you plan to do in college?
5) If you had a duck that laid a golden egg once every 3 months, what would you do? Assuming that caring for the duck costs slightly more than its golden egg.

 

1. Wa aleikumu assalaam. Dude, think for like ONE moment...My parents brought me over to egypt for me to get a full muslim education, that includes memorising quran, learning the religion all over again but in more detail(fiqh) and arabic(the old language)
THEY WILL BEAT MY ASS IF I DONT (lol not rly).
Besides, theres mosques all over the place doing adhan when the time has come. Its hard to forget.
I never really had that much of a problem with praying though, alhamdulillah i grew up with very supportive and islamic parents. My dad never really beat me(just once when i REALLY pissed him off, dont wana go into detail about that), he opted to use an alternate form of punishment...grounding me, banning me from gaming, he even smashed my ps2 and gamecube at the same time(i brought it on myself really, though it wasnt smart of him since i got new ones 3 weeks later). It is quite effective for me, must be how i am.

2. I dont any YET. I was supposed to order them a month ago (when i first got into the scene) but something honestly kept getting in the way. It was annoying to the extend that it slightly depressed me for a little bit. It was supposed to be my reward for a YEAR OF HARDSHIP LIKE I NEVER KNEW (i actually worked my arse off lol, doing A levels in 1 year is hard ) but i never got it.
Im gonna order tomorow though..provided nothing gets in the way AGAIN.
Getting a R4 + EZ4 minisd+Hori screen gaurds from japan + Replacement case for my phatty (hinge got messed up) + 2 Kingston MIT (minisd and microsd) 2gig + 2 Kingston MIJ (mini and micro again) 1gig.
Big order huh

3. All i know is a bit of Visual basic, i think i mentioned it before. I heard from my friend that its a sucky language anyways...
It was fun but i hope it isnt true... ive had a look at JAVA and it seems a bit weird.

4. I just wana get a nice and comfy job, one that doesnt require loads of research, numbercrunching, homework and hard work in general...im sick of it now and im gonna do a 4 year course as soon as i get back to england...
Ill probably just get a simple job before i start looking for something serious.

5.Meh...Theyre not that rascist but they are funny. The only thing thats a bit off putting is how direct they are with you. Im used to it in my culture (somali) but this is a whole new level.
Youre walking along the street, someone randomnly calls you and asks you to eat with him whatever hes having. If you somehow share a lift and he gets out before he always invites you to tea. FORCEFULLY! Its the same with you too, if youre walking along the street eating something, a random person comes to you and asks you if they can have some.
Its pretty cool here though, everyone is laid back. You have like the through and through muslims who work and read quran in the mosque all day just having friendly chats with a outright christian(note; by outright i mean dresses scarily to show hes a christian. Kinda like those big dresses muslim men wear (khamis) but all black with a MASSIVE cross on the front and thats all i know. I avoid them like the plague because the creep the f*ck out of me).
Some people are also so nice its startling. I saw the local imam of our mosque the other day and i never personally talked to him so i just went up to him and gave him my salam. He was so nice it gave me a nice fuzzy feeling inside. Kindness like that is rare.

 

1. How would you feel if in KYT:II the temp we're getting to know could only respond with pictures?

2. Have you ever played the SNES game Xcalibur 2097? If so, your thoughts?

3. its 11:11A.M, I'm at the University, and I have a little headache, what do you reccomend?

4. Have you ever engaged grammar nazi mode? How did it feel?

5. does the big [M]'s avatar scare you just as much as it scares me?

 

1. Metal gear solid is great and ive played all the games. Im not a fan that goes nuts everytime theres a new trailer for MGS4 but i am exited for the game(thats the only reason im getting a ps3). Crab battle i just found randomnly by whoring stumbleupon(which i usually do because im bored) and i thought i should share it. I have hundreds of stuff like taht.
heres some of my sites

as you can see, i spend a lot of time stumbling lol

2.Well, because i was dutch and we dutch are very much into american culture(thats why a dutch person tries his best to speak with a texan accent each time you meet one and talk english) We saw some tv show that used the joke why is 6 afraid of the seven (BECAUSE SEVEN EIGHT NINE) and then they kept spamming it at me(it became our own little stupid meme) so to piss them off id rearrange the numbers to 798. its also really comfy to enter yourself. Go on, try it.
Whenever Xalibur isnt available(my handle) i use either 798 or 698(at one or 2 sites). I just became used to it and enter it subconciously now lol.

3.I didnt do astrology as my option for physics, i di telecommunications and medical physics but ill give it a shot.
I believe that the universe is finite, theres lots of evidence for that. I dont want to go into detail since GCSE physics isnt gonna cut it. Besides, Im a religious person and i do believe that God/Allah(what you want to use, same meaning really) Created the universe for us humans. I DONT believe in extraterrestrial life.

4.I dont know and i couldnt care less. I stopped watching Simpsons AGES ago

5.I wouldnt be a car. I would be this

(Repugnus)

6. I had a lot of friends that were crazy about WOW and even though i never played WOW, W3 is pretty good.
I would keep it like tis. Maybe get a WOW themed sig. That would rock

DWARVES FTW

 

Nothing too fancy. I just wanted to try my hand at some programming languages because all my uncles and my dad(believe it or not) have done something with IT. My dad is A+ certified, my uncle did a full MCSE in uni(i think) and my other uncles all own a computer/mobile shop toghether. That went bust sadly....

If i were to specify it would probably be C/C++ and HTML and a bit of JAVA.
