How do you imagine me?

I have been thinking alot about this, and I wanted to know (it mind sound funny though) how do imagine my personality and the way I look, I'm thinking about changing my name, what d'ya think, I want to know if the way U think of me is what I want or if I should change it.

Helooooo?

There is a french proverb that says "no matter how much we change we stay the same."

I don't know you, but I'll tell you right off, I think your name is kinda silly. Unless you have a really weird and uncool real name I don't know why you'd call yourself " death of a vampire".

But hey, I'm only saying all this because you asked.

Gabriel Scarllet is a nice name, as it Max or, well Shannon for a girl, try one of those, or something a little bit less Goth.

Kevin, labeling? How unlike you.

Death of a Vampire, I invision you as a young adolescent still trying to find your place in society. You like fantasy and horror, and you want to be taken seriously while at the same time, be taken as a unique, interesting individual. You want to stand out, as most attention-deprived, appreciation hungry youngsters do. I am going to assume, without looking, that most of your poems are mediocre, mostly submitted under Dark Poetry. Your name has no importance or deeper meaning...you just like the way it sounds.

Shannon -is- a lovely name, isn't it? : D

Well, I don't know you.. but I did want to say a "Haha" about Kevin's comment. :]

Why that's a nice picture sibylene

Why thank you Sir David. My ear is flattered. ; )

Yeah it is a rather fetching picture Sib, you know it's, how to say, subtle. Alot of the allure a woman has, if you don't mind me saying, comes from her neck and shoulders, and yours are ace.

*wink wink*...what are you doing later? Huh huh uh...wanna play scrabble?

Who is Scarlett? Hahaha!

Mm... I can hardly turn down a good game of Scrabble....

And if I can't think of a word, I could just surreptitiously shrug one of my bewitching shoulders, and my opponants would be so entranced that they wouldn't realize that I just spelled "opponents" with an A.

And yes Bob...I am very afraid.

Soft-spoken naive young person who's trying to find his way in the world...be gone from the interwebs.

oh, yeah, and definitely change your name.
doood, vampires are immortal.
it's not clever or cute or ironic to claim to be the death of one.
unless you're a slayer.

Take a number kevin i saw her first

Heh, it's true. But David, Kevin's comment was so complimentary... : )

Crap! foiled again! and i would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for those meddling kids and that dog.....oh wait wrong lines

Ah David you savage, a wonderous being such as Sibyllene cannot be won with mere numerical authority, scrabble is the way to go man! Why, because I totally suck at it, yeah, it's the only game I know that you play on a board that I am not good at, and I know lots of big and little words and my spelling is par for the course...I just don't see the words on the board.

Soooo, girls love beating boys at compititions, it makes them think they have reversed millions of years of evolution and become the superior sex, which usually leads to sex, I've found anyway.

"Oh..ha ha...you beat me at tennis..wel I guess I'm just a simple man in comparison to your preternatural skills"

works every time.

See, i can be subtle but it isn't my wish to. most of you have noticed that one way or another i end up being the leader of the opposition in debates.

my flair is not in the flattery of a cozy spring garden but in the marble edifices that hold the great orations, debates, and ground breaking political maneuvers.

after all i am obnoxious and disliked.

Haha! David, that was the greatest closing line ever. I like you.

Kevin, you do have a point. Girls like winning. Wouldn't it be strange, though, if you found out that after centuries of deference and chivalry... we actually knew that you were letting us win? So we'd be letting you let us. That would be quite a shock. Good thing it's just my silly little mind running away with me.

But anyway, if you're no good at Scrabble... what then? Checkers? Risk? (I call Kamchatka!) ...Twister?

Twister? if you can't beat em get tangled up in them

Now you're thinking like a woman... ; )

All of a sudden i have the urge to go shopping.....oh crap

Haha... I'm sure it will pass.

I actually have very little patience for shopping. Unless it's Barnes and Noble - lock me up with those books, and I'll be just fine. I may forget to eat, but at least I'll die happy.

Same here, a good history book and i'm done for

Sigh... yes. What kind of history? From your photo, I'd guess American, but who knows? I'm fond of the really old - ancient Greco-Roman, Celtic Europe, Medieval, Renaissance... (Unless it's art, then I'll go all the way up to modern.)

But fantasy is my nerdy fail-safe. The genre can offer a lot of crap... but when it's good, it's good.

I'll absorb anything but i prefer american. i like it all from cinncinatus returning power back to rome up till the berlin wall falling

Man... aren't you afraid of limiting yourself to a too-narrow span of time? ; )

^You are me...but more soft-spoken. Not to mention blond, pale and frail.

Question: Don't men like winning just as much as women? Perhaps the reasons are different, but hey.

SCRABBLE?! Count me in.

Yeah! I think I remember we had a book discussion once... and we basically have the same library or something.

However-

1. I'm not blond.
2. I'm not very frail, either. I mean. I'm not crazy athletic. But I can hike all day, carrying a couple of packs and a canoe... : )

(I am quite pale though, you got that right. My hiking excursions give me unfortunate sunburns....)

I really, really, DO want to play Scrabble now. You and I could play with Fantasy book names that nobody else has ever heard of before. Points galore! Mwaha.

Heck yes! Haha, I have only been beaten once at Scrabble...and she was twice my age, not to mention completely bilingual. She knows English better than most people who speak English as their first and only language (including me apparently). But it was a close match! Alright, sorry. I still haven't recovered from the whooping.

Twister sounds fun too.

Yes, from the minuscule fragments of memory I have left of that discussion...you have good taste in Literature! Fantasy dominates. Have you read 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series by George R.R. Martin? My screen name on here was Daenerys Stormborn for a while, one of the lead characters. --Definitely a must read.

I haven't! But I'm making a note of it now.

Man. I wish I had two middle names....

Only if they both start in the same letter.

I prefer board games like Settlers of Cataan, or Risk or even some Monopoly....the kind of games where you can wheel and deal, and banter with people....scrabble just ain't exciting enough for me...chess I like, used to be almost up to National level but I got rusty...

Hey, Jane you know I'd never have taken you for a fantasy fan....shows what I know about you, what a dark horse you are! Have either of you read Jonathan Strange and mr Norrel? Ace book...just get it...also, the Running with the Demon books by Terry Brooks are ace...you'd really identify with the main character I think Jane...she's a nutjob too....hmmm..what about The Wizard Of Earthsea books by Ursull Le Guinn?...they are classics of modern fantasy, far surpassing and pre-dating Harry Potter....well worth a read.

Anyhoo, my lovely bed beckons...got my wee sister visiting tomorrow bright and early....

Night night all, dream of me won't you.

We seem to have really gotten off topic but I'll say this-I will change my name (i'm not to reative though) but I hate my reall name cuz everyone pronounces it wrong and my mom wont let me give it out online (oops I think I already did a few times)

Kevin, we should probably get married. I'll check out those books, I am a dark horse, and I doubt you were ever very good at Chess. Oh well.

Keep dreamin'

I mean, sweet dreams.

I've actually checked out Strange and Norell before... But it was along with a few other books, I never got around to it, and my school wanted it back eventually.... oh well, I know where they're keeping it.

I'd just like to say..........i got nothing, sorry

This is probabl the first actual thread I have read all the way through lol It sure kept me entertained... and now I want to play monopoly and read a fantasy book. thank you all alot lol, I find that in scrabble I can win, purely the people I play it with are my age also (18) and so I can make up a word and when they say 'is that a real word' all I have to say is 'look it up' and none of them do because they can't be bothered... so I win... but by default I guess.

^ That made my night.
