I idolised Kai from Beyblade so much I had a dream I can still recall clearly. I went into Toys R Us and discovered his Black Dranzer from his villain arc - it was in a huge case covered in chains and hidden in a derelict ailse. The intense desire I felt scared me, and steered from the path of evil
When yall were kids (think like.. age 4-12) what was the coolest character design you had ever seen that was super formative?

In my neverending drama life, got hate crimed and threatened outside the Doublet pub by some fiercely anti-pakistani randoms. Staff gave their sympathies, but did not move a punter who joined in, who I'd informed them of. Hate being a downer on socials but can't help being alive, haha!!

You ever think fondly about the best joke you ever made?
When I got assaulted, at the hospital the police said a journal was found at the scene. I, covered head to toe in blood, said yeah that's mine, must've flown out of me like loot from a goblin.
I feel I'll never top this
