Style over substance

[Almeidaboo]

The thing about cyberpunk, to me, is that I got introduced to the whole genre by the RPG Book called Cyberpunk 2020. It was a utopia that never came true (since there is no more time to archive what the predicted in the 80's), like hovering cars and brain implants to teach you stuff you'd never be able to do. The book relates the whole 2020 world in such details that it gets you gripped: it always rains, bodies on the gutter are normal, cyberpsycosis (disease caused by massive cyberstuff implanted in your body that makes you lose humanity), Friday Night Firefight, "the last bird died in 2008", no kids on the streets (they're grown in vats) and so on.

The great thing about the game itself is that it is as realistic as a game can be. You can actually lose character after character and not pu the blame on the DM; in this game a SHOT in the arm IS A SHOT in the arm. As they say "a magnum .44 can splatter a real person all over New Jersey"

I'm not into the dressing up thing (like using leather and mirrorshades...), but the world of Cyberpunk really seems cooler than our own.

Dressing: Mostly dark stuff. I own a couple of pairs of jeans, but rarely wear them - I'm more into "comfortable" clothing.

Humor: I try to be funny, but fail miserably. Everyone around here should know that.

Social life: What's that?

Politics?: I believe that, as of now, every political system in the world is corrupt. I have no desire to change that, but at the rate we're going, the president of the US will usher in the apocalypse.

Class: Lazyholic.

Blarg!

Dressing: Whatever I have. I could care less. (Mostly black shirts, I despise shorts, and I'd wear band shirts, but I even fear wearing a Rammstein shirt for fear of human contact.)
Humor: I'm much funnier online than I am in real life. :/
Social life: Dead.
Politics?: What's a senator do again?
You addition: I enjoy drawing. No one else enjoys me drawing. :/
Class: Solo.      >.>             I tried to avoid this class. I really did. I tried to convince myself I was another class, and failed. This is me alright, but having put it here, I sound like a "I wanna be cool" kinda guy.

Being cool is for losers.


I agree with Aboutthisandaso about the oxymoron.

Dressing: Jeans are lovely. Shirts and tees that are every colour of the god-damn rainbow. I like logos and pictures and patterns and funny things on them and with thanks to a lovely t-shirt printing girlfriend I can even bring some of my own ideas to life. I have four coats, all of them dark as god-damn pitch. I'm never without a pendant, necklace or tie.

Humour: Ranges from intelligent satire to fart jokes to none.

Social Life: I'M POSTING ON AN INTERNET MESSAGE BOARD

Politics: This bird hangs to the left, if you see what I mean. My holy trinity? Love, Knowledge and Freedom.

You Addition: I love my food. People you ask will say I don't, but it's true. I'm half anglo and half chinese, and in china if you don't love your food you might as well be an texan atheist muslim... commie*

Class: Outwardly it has been said that I appear to be some kind of metalheadbanger musician. It comes as a dissappointment to crack the shell and find a nerdy yolk within.

*And don't even f*cking THINK about being vegetarian.

Don't even think about comparing mechanics to IT dudes.
