Please welcome my pal here!

KillerQueen’s a pal of mine. I’d like to introduce her here. Please welcome her to our corner of the internet. Thanks guys.

Hey everyone,

I guess I should introduce myself somewhat, at least, but first I’ll tell you why I’m here. I’m not really a fan of Star Wars all the much, so try not to hold that against me. The reason I am here is because I’m going through a rather rough time and need a distraction. I’m not one to really reach out for help or to others, but my friend here convinced me to do so.

Now with all that being said, I guess I should say a little about myself. I’m a huge fan of old cheesy horror films, I love video games, I’m an avid gamer, usually anyway. I have a fascination with old muscle cars, particularly mustangs. Mustangs are my favorite, hell, I drive a mustang, so I may be bias.

I’m not sure as to what else you guys would want to know.

Oh yeah… Classic rock is my thing.
Killer Queen is one of my favorite songs, hence, the username.

Welcome to this, our fine forum KillerQueen…! It is also good to see you again my good Trident…it has been more than a short while…yes? Please both of you…pull up a chair…the tea’s on already…!

Welcome aboard! You should check out the Classic Rock thread.

First off, I’m already insane. It’s a given, so this could be perfect for me.

Second, thanks for all the replies already, didn’t expect that.

Yeah. What’re you guys still doing up at this hour? lol

You have referenced a difficult time…would you care to elaborate…? Feel free to feel as free as you may feel free to feel…we understand both the difficult and the mundane…!

As for gaming, which might be considered your preferred platform? Essentially, what games do you frequent most often?

The closest I might arrive at horror in the B grade and below is to watch ancient episodes of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (of which this entire forum appears to be a reasonable facsimile…)…I have the entire series…unfortunately…!

Muscle cars is beyond my scope, unfortunately…I am firmly into (and out of) mini-vans…

Classic Rock is a fair interest…do you have a favorite band (a banal question I realize…but nonetheless it is an interest of mine as well…). Though I confess to being ignorant of Killer Queen, it does remind of Rocket Queen…which naturally points to Guns and Roses…(clearly Unclassical Rock perhaps, but Rock nonetheless…). Therefor if my image of you is of an individual wearing a bandana much as would Axl Rose I apologize in advance…! 😉

Again, it is good to have met you…it is most welcome to have guests in the parlor…!

You have the entire run of MST3K? How is that even possible?

I recorded a good chunk of them on VHS back when they were airing, and bought some on DVD, but…wow.

It is a failing of mine…I freely admit…also, I accidentally downloaded it on Vu–ah, that is to say, I accidentally found it to be located within a directory upon my D drive after seemingly having left my computer running for about 4 days in an undisturbed state… 😉

We have couple of threads that might be the place to talk about this if you wish to.

http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Prayer-requests-Anyone/id/48765

Would clicking on both identical links give twice the emotional support? Anyway, I clicked on this thread, and then totally forgot to come back to it… so, welcome to the place that is OT! And I’ll pray too.

@Post Praetorian,

It’s an extremely difficult time for me, however, I feel like it would sound silly to all of you and it’s why I didn’t actually mention it. It’s hard to talk about because it as you know, when you talk about something difficult, that forces you to actively think about it. It’s something I can barely handle as it is, so thinking about it just makes it too real. Being a person with a psychology background, I know that the worst thing you can do is avoid the hard feelings, but, right now, I can only handle it at certain times. This, that I’m dealing with, has essentially happened to me before, almost two years ago actually. I guess it’s harder this time because I was convinced it would never happen again or maybe I just convinced myself. Who knows? All I know is that I need to keep myself busy, so I don’t think about it.

Thank you though, for taking the time to actually ask. That’s very nice of you.

Gaming, I’ve always been a PC gamer and just before this thing happened, I threw myself into Tom Clancy’s The Division. Great game, I actually would love to find some other people to play, it’s just a matter of me making the effort to play again. Like I said, I love gaming, it’s just a bit difficult right now because everything is reopened and associations were made, triggers, basically. Now I know I sound like a neurotic crazy lady. -_-
I also have Black Desert Online, which I can’t bring myself to play.
I WAS waiting for Dark Souls 3, I kind of still want to play it when it comes out, but it’ll just be too hard, too many memories attached to that series to play it right now.

I’ve seen episodes of Mystery Science Theatre when ScyFy was still SciFi and airing them occasionally on Saturday mornings. Although, I’vbe always preferred stuff like The Twilight Zone and Stargate when it comes to science fiction. I’ve tried Doctor Who, I know there’s a huge fan base, and I watched a lot of the newer series, it just didn’t do much for me.

I find that watching horror helps when I’m feeling the way I am and when I mean horror, I mean horror. I get it in my mind that no matter how bad I’m feeling, well, atleast I’m not in that situation. Its a numbing thing I think. I’m talking The Shining, Pet Sematary, Misery, The Lost Boys — Although The Lost Boys isn’t really “horror” neither along with Misery. Those films have a certain distraction for me still, I don’t know why.

I’ve always had a thing for muscle cars, not sure why. My knowledge of the mechanics doesn’t go too far, so I couldn’t tell you much about that. The look of them does it for me, I don’t like the newer looking “sports” cars.

Killer Queen is a song by Queen, check it out. It’s one of my favorites and boy do I have some favorites.
Steve Miller Band
Queen
Boston
The Eagles
Lynyrd Skynyrd

Just to name a few, I normally listen to classic rock on the way to school (I’m graduating this May. Trying to be excited about it, but I guess it’s the furtherest thing in my mind right now. It’s a huge accomplishment, it still doesn’t change the fact that I feel like shit… Heh) and they play a lot of different bands, all classic rock, absolutely nothing else and it’s why I love the station so much.

Ha, Axel Rose, that’s very unfortunate, I must admit I don’t really care for Guns N Roses. His voice… Not so much for me. I don’t know why. The same with Rush… Please don’t stone me, I just really don’t like Rush. While I can appreciate the musical aspect, his voice kills it for me.

As for what I look like, a more accurate image of me would be a short geeky chick. No bandanas, I assure you. Just a regular gal.

I guess that’s all for now.

@Everyone else, thanks again for the warm welcome. Again, I didn’t really think I’d get many replies.
