This is a new thing we're doing where we give a specific member a thread for a week in which they can share whatever information they want about themselves, then answer whatever questions the public asks them. It's sort of an expansion on the "Let's get to know each other" thread by, well, giving one member the spotlight. More information on the concept can be found here.
This week's participant is [member=1100]The Pyro (Gym Leader Devil)[/member], who has elected to share the following information:

Feel free to ask whatever you'd like. This thread will be up for approximately a week before we move onto our next participant.Hmmm... What do people wanna know about me? Alright, so I was born in Washington State some 30 years ago, but found myself moved to Arkansas just four short months later. I grew up in three different dwellings that were all on the same acre and a half of rural land backed up to a little copse of woods where I spent a goodly portion of my time. We were pretty poor most of that time, and never got beyond slightly poor.
I have two real sisters, both older. One is a pharmacist working her way up towards being a department head at the hospital where she works, the other joined the Air Force, and has sort of bummed around switching between work and not work ever since, especially since she and her husband split. Between the two of them, I have four nephews and two nieces. My dad died when I was about nine of cancer... lots of cancer. It took tumors in like six different organs to finally take him down, my old man was tough. My mom, who is perhaps even tougher, lives next door to me in a tiny cabin she had converted from a free standing storage shed
I have two kids myself, which you all hear plenty about, so I don't get to pursue my hobbies as much as I'd sometimes like. I do swords and knives, used to do some light archery. I also write, though not so much of late, and read a lot (like, consumed five discworld novels in four days a lot). I train Pokemon, I play L4D and TF2, and just recently I've been taking over as DM for a D&D table (which is part of why I've not been around so much lately).
I'm working at fuckin' McDonalds, ain't that fun? I've actually always enjoyed being a cook for a living, if this counts, but something about fast food just seems to breed cuntish co-workers.
I'm an emotional person, especially where anger comes into play. I've had therapy, so don't worry
I'm a witch, have been since I was a tiny kid. My beliefs are almost entirely self-determined, you won't find any organized coven anywhere who does and thinks what I do and think exactly. And yes, I said witch, not wizard or warlock. Witch has a better sound to it Anyway, I don't worship anything. I don't exactly venerate anything. To venerate, say, nature, is to venerate all that comes of it... and that includes people. So screw that. Any god-like beings wanna have a chat, I'll hear 'em out with no promises
Oh yes, and I'm a colossal nerd, as the trophies in my sig will attest.
So yeah, that's all I got. Think of your own shit you wanna know from there. Just remember GLD's Rules of Coversation #1: Never ask a question unless you're sure you want an answer, for GLD will answer it, possibly graphically, because he has no shame
