The rest of the character asks

Yukio: Are you a self-critical person?

Sort of. There's a part of me that is very self-critical, because I strive to be a perfectionist, but there's also a laidback part of me that allows me to turn a blind eye to my faults.

Shiemi: Do you make friends easily?

Not really. I like to think that I'm a friendly person, but I do have a hard time getting close to people. 

Konekomaru:Are you a cat or dog person?

Dog person! I love both, and cats are super cute, but in the end, I can't help but to like dogs more. They're the sweetest and most affectionate.

Izumo:Do you find it hard to depend on people?

Yeeepp. Not that I think other people aren't dependable, but I like being as independent as possible. 

Takara: Are you a quiet person?

Yep. I get loud when I'm excitable but I'm generally a quiet person who prefers a quiet environment.

Godaiin:Do you have any fears?

Bugs D: I'm as bad as Renzou is with bugs.

Paku:Are you a friendly person?

Yep!

Shura:Do you look up to anybody?

I look up to people who strive to be the best they can be.

Kinzou:What kind of music do you like?

All kinds. Rock, pop, classic, jazz, j-rock, russian music. I tend to like songs that have catchy beats. 

Juuzou:Do you have any pet peeves?

Sooo many. Mostly writing related, such as when people come up with inadequate hair color descriptions, such as silverette or bluenette or what have you. Ugggh. 

Neuhaus: What kind of people do you hate?

Judgemental, intolerant assholes.

Arthur: Do you have any talents/skills?

Tough question. Well, I'm good at writing, I take pride in my ability to absorb information quickly, I'm a good listener, and I know how to knit. I think that about sums it.

Lewin Light: Are you a neat or dirty person?

More neat than not, but not as neat as I could be. 

Shiro: Is there anybody you would die for?

Yes, but I would rather live with them instead. 

Lucifer: Do you have any dreams?

Not particularly, nothing big. I have some goals, but little ambition towards a big dream.

Rin x Konekomaru (Did I ask this one?)

Send me a ship and I will explain why I do or don’t ship it

I think you have asked once upon a time maybe, and perhaps to Liz, but either way:

Yes! I definitely ship these two cuties. Not exactly my OTP ofc, but at the same time, the relationship between these two is so important to me. I really can’t put it into words, but just the thought of them being in a happy relationship makes me beam. I think they would be really sweet boyfriends. Rin doting over Neko, making him bento, studying with him…. 

They’re adorable and I totally need to read more fics about them. I think I’ve only read one actually, and I think it might have been someone dreaming… 

There needs to be more neko/rin love gdi

i just thought that id point this out to people: "The Pitch Drop Experiment"

But theres this thing called the Ninth Watch and its this tar ball at Queens University in the land of the kangaroos  thats about to fall and its only fallen 8 time in the past 89 years and its about to fall the ninth time at any point now Theres this live feed and you can watch people making faces at the tar ball because they dont know theyre being watched by the camera... by hundreds of people and if you happen to be one of the hundreds of people logged in when the tar falls youll be recognized as witnessing it fall, first to happen in all of mans history theres also a little background behind this and a cute little history about how a guy dedicated to this study and wasnt able to live long enough to witness it...  but this will be able to explain it better than i ever could check it out http://www.theninthwatch.com/

Word Wall II

A few weeks ago I wrote a post titled [Talk the Talk](http://ryanverner.tumblr.com/post/29461905691/talk-the-talk) about the new vernacular I've been exposed to since entering the world of software development. To briefly summarize that post, early on in this process I noticed that a lot of new, confusing words were being thrown around and I felt like everyone was speaking a different language. To help me learn, I started keeping a word wall, a list of any word I encountered that I didn't completely understand. In this post I'm going to research the next five words on my word wall. **Word Wall** * *encapsulation* * to restrict certain aspects of a class from use by other parties * hiding the implementation details which may or may not be for generic or specialized behaviors * **not** just information hiding * building a barrier around a collection of things * the practice of including within an object everything it needs in such a way that no other object needs to be aware of this internal structure * *porting* * the process of adapting software to allow a program to be created for a different environment from the one for which it was originally designed * port comes from a Latin word that means "to carry" * when code is not compatible with a particular operating system, the code must be "carried" to the new system * when software is very portable it means that it can easily be adapted for new systems * *tarball* * suggesting a ball of tar, this is a jargon term for a tar archive, which is a group of files collected together as one * Tar stands for Tape ARchive and is a UNIX command that creates a single file called an archive from specified files or separates the files from such an archive * *macro* * a rule that specifies how a certain input sequence should be mapped to a replacement input sequence according to a defined procedure * for example, keyboard macros allow short sequences of keystrokes to be transformed into other (usually more time-consuming and difficult) sequences of keystrokes * *DNS* * stands for Domain Name System * it serves as the phone book for the Internet by translating human-friendly computer hostnames into IP addresses * it's easier to remember the domain name www.espn.com than it is to remember its corresponding IP address * DNS allows you to connect to another networked computer by using its domain name rather than the IP address * this allows you to type in www.espn.com instead of 207.443.313.48 (or something like that) *Some Helpful Stuff* [Abstraction, Encapsulation, and Information Hiding by Edward V.
