Bonjour. My name is Tabitha. I reside in the lovely country of Canada, particularly the province of Ontario, and I am a musician. The band Simple Plan means a lot to me. I live for music. I love cartoons, comic books, technology and Star Trek. My hair is dyed. My guitar is my best friend. I am a vegetarian. I use proper grammar and spelling. Life isn't always awesome, but I live it, anyway.
These Are More Questions Inspired By Simpsons Episodes [SurveysDaMe]
01. Have you ever attended a company picnic? I've never had a company with which to have a picnic ... The only time I went to a "company" thing was when my sister, mother and I would attend the Christmas party at OMS when my dad worked there. Wow, that makes me feel nostalgic. I'm going to change the subject.
02. Were your grandparents ever in the army? No, but great-grandfather was.
03. How do you feel about cartoon violence? I think there are worse things that can influence children. It's hard to believe that someone would kill another person in a hilarious, artistic way just because Itchy did it to Scratchy. Besides, like I heard on some commentary a while ago ... parents used to just TELL their kids not to drop an anvil on someone's head. I guess it's too much work for parents to do that now.
04. Have you eaten any fish recently? What kind? You know, I just read this question and the only thing that went through my mind was, "Hm, which episode is she talking about?" I have a feeling it's Two Cars In Every Garage and Three Eyes On Every Fish. Man, I've watched that episode many times. It's actually Harry Shearer's favourite, but I don't think it's anything amazing. I didn't really care for the first and second seasons. I wasn't even alive when that episode aired. Crazy. But, anyway, I haven't eaten fish for over four years, and shrimp used to be my favourite.
05. Have you ever had a teacher that had a very obvious personal problem? Yes, there have been times when I've seen a teacher in a certain mood, and known that it must have been something going on outside of school which influenced this mood. But I've never seen it actually jeopardize their ability to teach in any way.
06. If you have pets, have they ever needed surgery? Well, my dog was spayed, but there haven't been any other medical procedures necessary.
07. Have you ever been in a play? No, I have not. Not that I can recall, anyway. I might have been in one. My childhood is a messy blur.
08. If your town had a day devoted to beating snakes with clubs, would you participate? NO. But I know which episode you're talking about. I still wouldn't participate. I would never intentionally hurt an animal.
09. Did you ever dislike any of your current friends? I don't have any current friends, and I kind of dislike that fact, but it's not very important to me right now.
10. What's the longest amount of time you've ever spent in a treehouse? Hm, I don't think I've spent any amount of time in a treehouse, ever. Sad. I missed out on some good junk.
11. Do you know the story of your conception? Well, since I know how a baby is made, I DO know the story of my conception, technically. But, as for the rest of it, I only know that it happened on Valentine's Day. Ha. Oh, gosh, are you talking about the episode And Maggie Makes Three? Because that's one of my favourite parts of that episode. (Really, anything but the ending is good for me, since The Simpsons isn't supposed to make me THAT emotional!)
12. Would you rather take ballet lessons or take classes at a clown college? Psh, clown college, of course! Now, I've watched THIS episode a bajillion times. I don't think I'd be graceful enough to actually succeed in ballet, no matter how many lessons I took.
13. How would your mother react if she found out you had shoplifted? "Idiot!" Basically. Wow, I've been capitalizing all my sentences. Weird. This might become a trend! Probably not. Good grammar and spelling hasn't caught on yet.
14. Do your parents listen to any music from this decade? My mother will listen to anything. Seriously. However, I have a feeling that she doesn't like half the things she claims she does.
15. How old were you the first time you babysat? I think I was nine? But that was just babysitting my sister while my parents when out, and it wasn't a very difficult job.
16. Are any of the teachers at your (former) high school married to other teachers in the school? Not high school, no, but my seventh grade teacher married my sister's fifth grade teacher. We predicted this the moment she came to the school, anyway.
17. Have you ever attended a wedding that was held at somebody's home? No, I have not.
18. Have you ever glued anything to your face? Ha ha, no, I don't believe I ever have ...
19. Under what circumstances would you donate a kidney? if it was a matter of life or death, probably. I mean, if I could survive healthily while helping someone else survive even partially healthily ... it'd be worth it, I guess.
20. If you could get a doorbell that played any song you wanted, what song would you choose? The Pee-Wee's Playhouse theme song, just 'cause. It'd probably creep people out, though. >.<

I know Anthony Green sings in Saosin, though, so I understand why you would confuse that. anyway, this has happened many, many times.

20. Gone So Young By Amber Pacific - Do you know someone who died at a young age? Brittany Murphy was too young to die.

Survey by shrinkmyworld. Music + Songs.
Put your iPod/MP3 on shuffle, and write down what it asks.
1. Song: No Regrets Artist: Gob Album: The World According to Gob Album Cover: How did you discover this song? man, it was quite a while ago, so I forget how I did exactly. I was really into Gob back in 2003-2005 because of their affiliation with Simple Plan and Avril Lavigne (when I kinda did like her) at the time. I made a mix CD of a bunch of Gob songs, and I even still have it in my collection somewhere, so I downloaded those from the internet. a lot of times I'll choose songs with interesting names while downloading music from a new band/artist. :) Does anything in life remind you of this song? well, yeah, pretty much. I constantly use one of the chorus lines in my everyday life: "I'm upset, and yet, no regrets." it's the way to live. If you could change this song, what would you change? I wouldn't change anything, I think it's brilliant. If you put this song on repeat, does it get annoying or boring? hm, it wouldn't get boring because the song isn't that great, it would just get boring because I used to play this song to DEATH back in 2003-2005.
2. Song: Perfect Situation Artist: Weezer Album: Make Believe Album Cover: What does this song mean to you? I don't think it really means that much to me. I love Weezer and their songs, but I really just like this song because it's a catchy and good song, and I love the lyrics. What does this artist mean to you? on a scale of 1-10 ... 6, I guess. Is this one of your favorite songs? nah, not really. definitely not my favourite Weezer song, but it's still very good. Why/Why not? because there are other songs I just like better. by the way, Rivers Cuomo, I hope your recovery is speedy quick! ♥
3. Song: Rich Girl$ Artist: Down With Webster Album: Time to Win, Vol. 1 Album Cover: Do a lot of people like/listen to this song/artist? well, more now than before, since they're song "Time To Win" has been playing pretty much everywhere lately. Would this song describe your lover/love life? ha ha, no. What genre does this song fall into? some kind of mix of pop and rap and rock, I guess. Does this song help you/calm you down after a tough/bad time? no, it doesn't really do much for me, I just like it because it's interesting and I like all of their voices.
4. Song: The Brews Artist: NOFX Album: Punk In Drublic Album Cover: What is this song about? something about Jewish people. it definitely is about Jews, but I don't really know what it's about, exactly. sorry if that makes me a shitty NOFX fan, ha ha. >.< Does/has this song influence/influenced your life in anyway? no, it hasn't been influential for me. I just love the entire song. there are a lot of Jewish references that I couldn't understand when I first heard it, but PLyrics helped me with that. :) Would you use this song to describe your life? nah. I'm not Jewish, and the lyrics just don't relate to me. How does this song make you feel? like singing along and playing drums! :D
5. Song: Space Game Artist: MC Lars Album: The Graduate Album Cover: Do you listen to the artist of this song often? yeah, I go in and out of his music. lately, I have been listening to him a lot, and I listened to him a lot in 2007 and 2008, too. How many times have you played this on your iPod/MP3? I don't know how to figure out the play count on the iPod itself. I know how to get it on iTunes, but I haven't figured out how to see the play count on the iPod. Do you think this artist is under/overrated? definitely underrated. Why/Why Not? he's a very talented songwriter and rapper, and I feel he deserves much more praise for that than he currently receives.
