    wild animals vs domestic pets

    Does anyone else appreciate wild animals more than domestic pets? I've never really had many pets. Never had a cat or a dog, just some guinea pigs and a hamster, when I was younger, but have no desire to keep pets anymore. I like watching the wild birds in my garden (I don't know enough about...

    Music or bands that changed your life?

    the band XTC had a really big impact on my life because I'd always appreciated music but hearing their early stuff from the late '70s and early '80s is what made me want to actually be able to make music myself. I guess there was just some quirkiness that I could identify with.

    Furries

    Your username/avatar combination messes with my head. WildCat... Hyena avatar... :P No reason to feel bad about identifying yourself a as a furry - I can see that society stigmatizes it as some kind of weird fetish but society is wrong about a lot of things and that's one of them. There is that...

    What characters do/did you find relatable?

    Scar from The Lion King was kinda funny. I remember people at high school called me Scar for a while. But I hadn't seen the movie since I was 5, so didn't really know why. Then I watched it last christmas and it was like, "you know what? I get it?"... It's not the "evil" stuff. But every other...

    What was the last movie you watched?

    That's my dad's favourite movie... I think. I agree about the soundtrack :) Also the last movie I watched. I'd be interested in seeing the musical simply because they have included some stuff they removed from the movie that, when I saw the deleted scenes, I was thinking, "why did they remove...

    Favourite Non-Disney/Non-Pixar Animated Movies...

    Yeah, that's a good one. Kinda proves that animation isn't necessarily a kiddie thing, as well. It's kinda dark, has a lot of adult themes, and it's very graphic in places - and... that cat is creepy! Although when I was growing up, that movie was ok for kids, I have an older cousin who was...

    Watching the same cartoons series for months

    I don't like watching things with other people. Usually it seems like they either want to give you their opinion of what you're watching (hint: I don't care!), or want your opinion on whatever they want to watch. But yeah, I'm 27 and I do this. Always have done - watching the same thing over...

    90's

    yeah, I think it almost used to be that the things were really made for the adults who would be paying for the cinema tickets or the video releases, so they tended to primarily deal with more mature themes but had some childish jokes thrown in for the kids... ...and nowadays the opposite is...

    90's

    I dunno why but I think referring to it as a "kids" thing sort of undermines it to an extent. That applies to most of the classic disney stuff... Yeah, kids can enjoy them but there's always something more just below the surface that kids don't tend to notice. So you can watch these things as a...

    90's

    I don't mean to ruin your username but... It's spelled "Bennie" :) (I'm listening to that LP right now so have the gatefold sleeve opened on my piano stool behind me). There's not much from the 1990s that I like that much, other than Nirvana and other grunge. I kinda like some britpop stuff...

    "Boys will be boys"

    I guess I was never a real boy then :P

    What do you collect?

    I did see one for sale a few years ago but I think it was a bit too expensive for something that I probably wouldn't use very much. All the other recorders are just stuff that I acquired when I was in a school that did recorder lessons. I still have them because I don't get rid of things like...

    What do you collect?

    The melodica has been something I've overlooked but it's interesting, probably the sort of thing I'd buy if I saw one and had some spare cash lying around. I have played a cabasa before too, along with a lot of other percussion things I've forgotten about. Truth is, even though the electric...

    What do you collect?

    I collect electric guitars - and also other musical instruments... and try to learn to play them all. Here's a list of different instruments I've collected (even variations) -Electric guitars - lots of them because I'm totally obsessed with them. -Acoustic guitar -Bass guitar -Piano...

    Cat people are smarter than dog people

    I consider myself a 'lion person' to an extent, in that I have this crazy ambition to be working as a zoo keeper who is primarily responsible for taking care of the big cats, specifically lions :P And yet, lots of people do seem to want to mess with me - maybe they wouldn't if I were actually...
