No Starfleet For Me

Reclusive Artist

53% Intrigue, 73% Civilization, 57% Humanity, 35% Urbanization

Your result for Reincarnation Placement Exam...

Reclusive Artist


We think we've found a place for you.

Your answers indicate that you're very fond of the fruits of civilization... for example, education and technology. But, in some twist of irony, you're not too fond of the pressures of civilization... you know, human beings and crowds and working together. We found you a place where you could enjoy an erudite existence, live a life that's intriguing and not entirely secure -- but far from the madding crowd.

Removed from civilization and humanity, yet educated and sophisticated, you'll make the perfect reclusive artist... An eccentric that produces irresistibly attractive masterpieces. Your art will make people swoon, and yet you will despise your audience. Your audience will probably dislike you as well, though they will go on admiring your work. So it all balances out, and your patrons will leave you alone to shape beauty in the wild, dangerous parts of the world where people won't pester you so much. Probably, you will write under a pseudonym, and mutter a lot when a rare admirer comes calling. If you feel really adventurous, you can pursue the role of a political dissident.

As you age, you will grow into the role of an incorrigible curmudgeon.



You artists, you're all the same.

    Das Right Bitches, I'm The Debil


    You are The Devil


    Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession


    The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.


    Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

    The Crickets They Are A'Chirpin

    So yes this place has been fairly dead for the past month or so. At least it feels like it to me. I have lots of stuff that I could put up. Tons. I have been gaming a bit, but really that never stopped me from posting before. I'm probably going through one of those periods that most bloggers, if not all, sometimes go through. Work has been a bit tedious lately and certainly hasn't inspired me to be all that motivated to do much of anything. Today was just another one of those days with depressing news at work added in. I've still got a job, but my ongoing blahness plus that news and I headed home early. So here I am.

    Crufty has an interesting meme posted yesterday. It applies well here since today is my birthday. Here are the instructions.

    1. Go to Wikipedia.
    2. In the Search box, type your birth month and day (but not year).
    3. List three events that happened on your birthday.
    4. List two important birthdays and one interesting death.
    5. List any holidays
    6. Post it.

    Here ya go. Note that there was just way too much stuff to strictly follow the rules of the meme. There were over a hundred births listed and over fifty deaths. There were also thirtynine events listed. Also, I'm adding fictional birthdays as well just because I can.

    Three Events
    *475 - Byzantine Emperor Zeno is forced to flee his capital at Constantinople.
    *1431 - Judges' investigations for the trial of Joan of Arc begin in Rouen, France, the seat of the English occupation government.
    *1995 - Valeri Poliakov completes 366 days in space while aboard the Mir space station, breaking a duration record.

    Birthdays(2 + 1)
    *1913 - Richard Nixon, 37th President of the United States (d. 1994)
    *1944 - Jimmy Page, English guitarist
    *1971 - Scott Thornton, National Hockey League player
    I threw in the last one just because I'm a hockey fan and he used to play for the Sharks and he was born the same year. Happy Birthday Scott. Interesting to note that there are two other hockey players currently in the NHL born today as well. Intersting to me anyway.

    Deaths(1)
    *1939 - Johnny Gruelle, American cartoonist, children's book writer and creator of Raggedy Ann (b. 1880)

    Holidays
    *Martyrs' Day (Panama) commemorates the 1964 riots over sovereignty of the Panama Canal Zone
    *Roman Catholic - Feast of Saint Adrian
    *Eastern Orthodox - Feast of Saint Theophan the Recluse
    *Black Nazarene feast in the Quiapo district, Manila, Philippines
    *Balloon Ascension Day
    *Stepfather's Day

    Fictional Birthday
    Severus Snape's birthday, from J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series

    So there you have it. As I was reading through this post prior to posting I noted that I had written through for threw and their for there. If you find more of this type of bullshit please just replace the wrong word with the correct word. You'll have to do this in your own head, because I'm not giving out editing rights.
