I'm still here

Original meme (Warning: I used to try to come up with a unique name for the backwards version of every song I wrote down backwards lyrics to, and some of the names sound weird to me now. Especially when the song has no lyrics and so I just used the "opposite" of the original title.) )

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?

So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
7. No cheating and doctoring your list to make yourself look cooler than the person you took this from

New answers! )

You can tell I have a lot of video game music now - and I still haven't actually finished adding all the video game soundtracks that I want on my iPod!

I also removed backwards music from my iPod a while back - I still like backwards music, but at some point it turned out that I wouldn't have enough room for both forwards and backwards versions of every song I have so far.


What’s your sequel’s soundtrack?

200th post!

matt1993: (afer ventus or the river sings backwards)
For my 200th LJ entry (my profile will say 201, but that's because I haven't deleted the welcome entry that's automatically made for new users), I decided to do something completely pointless: take the first word from my first post, the second word from my second post, the third word from my third post, and so on, all the way up to this one. (If post #X has Y words, and Y is less than X, then the remainder of X ÷ Y is Z, and I use the Zth word instead, or the last if Z is zero.) And yes, this is a ripoff of 160 Seconds.

So here goes )

Context )

While doing this, I've noticed that I have quite a few posts that are exactly 48 words long, by the way. Coincidence?

On a less pointless note, I had to get my braces tightened again today. And this time, there are rubber bands holding the top and bottom braces together (which have to be changed every time I eat or brush my teeth, and also before I go to bed), so it probably won't pull a my wisdom teeth this time. :(

25 Things About Me

(got this from [livejournal.com profile] otterdance)

1. I'm good at math.

2. I suck at writing research papers and essays. And even at taking notes.

3. I hacked into my mom's computer at the age of two.

4. I love macaroni and cheese.

5. I have weird dreams often, usually about video games and/or Enya.

6. I love procrastinating.

7. I enjoy backwards music.

8. Cussing annoys me.

9. I don't get why things like this post are called memes when annoying things on the Internet like "SH00P DA W00P" are also called memes.

10. I am biased against Photoshop just because so many people who use it are biased against MS Paint.

11. See above. Replace "Photoshop" with "Firefox" and "MS Paint" with "Internet Explorer".

12. I hate school.

13. I have autism. AND I'M SICK OF IT. >:(

14. My favorite color is yellow.

15. I enjoy video game glitches.

16. I wish one of my favorite singers were in a video game that didn't involve a concert of any kind. More of an adventure/platformer-style game.

17. I am infamous for posting stupid things on forums. Mainly the SmackJeeves forum and the Homestar Runner Wiki Forum. Which is why I've stopped posting to either of them.

18. I sometimes use a ROM corruptor (which is intended for use on video game ROMs) on music files just for the fun of it.

19. I have only been to one concert in my life: a recent Celine Dion concert.

20. Sometimes, for the fun of it, I read the edit histories of pages on Wikipedia and the Homestar Runner Wiki and try to find the vandalized pages.

21. I discovered the missing link between Enya and the Mario world...maybe.

22. I beat Kirby's Dream Land the day I got it. (though I haven't beaten the extra game yet...)

23. I only like to hear Chuck Norris jokes every once in a while.

24. Even though I have an account on the Homestar Runner Wiki, I still prefer to make anonymous posts on talk pages rather than editing articles while logged in.

25. I prefer sbemails over hremails.

My first meme

While randomly looking through the archives of my LJ friends' LJ friends, I found that [livejournal.com profile] otterdance had done this meme and decided I'd do it too.

EDIT WAY LATER: I think maybe I should mention that I didn't have a Paid account at the time, so I couldn't use the Friends of Friends page - I was randomly looking at [livejournal.com profile] rovanda's friends page.

What's your soundtrack?

It's hard to describe this journal in just a few paragraphs... but I'll try

Just an autistic guy born in 1993 (hence the username) who's had this journal since I was 14. Has trouble phrasing things well especially in earlier entries, so keep that in mind.

My interests have fluctuated in the 17 years since I've had this journal, but the following has remained constant:
- I like Mario games (mainly the platformers, Mario Kart, Mario Party) and Super Smash Bros.
- I like Garfield
- I like Homestar Runner
- I like Enya
- And I've always loved the idea of wacky crossovers between ANY of my interests, whether it's in the form of a short-lived webcomic in 2006-2008, a short-lived backwards lyrics site in 2008, writing down weird dreams in 2009-2011, playing Tomodachi Life a lot in 2014-2016, or what most of my posts are about these days: playing around with Character.AI starting in 2023. I still can't believe I'm actually in a world where an AI of Enya can talk to AIs of Mario or Garfield or even my favorite obscure characters like Mary O. from Super Mario Maker. :O
