FoA Interview #7: Stefu Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

The seventh edition of the "Faces of Apolyton" interview series, spearheaded by Apolyton staff member and interviewer Solver, is here. Today, we sport a hearty five-page article with <A HREF=/forums/"/misc/interviews/foa_7stefu.shtml">Stefu</A>, the chief Apolyton smilie producer and a well known "Off-Topic" poster. You are welcome and encouraged to post your comments on this interview in this thread.

When is the next "FoA" coming? It's only seven days away in fact -- on March 26th, 2002, will finally reveal the long-awaited one-on-one conversation with Ming, everyone`s favorite moderator, `Man with a Thousand Guns`, of the <I>Off-Topic</I> and <I>CivII</I> forums fame. It was not posted today due to scheduling conflicts and apologize for any inconvenience as a result. For past "FoA" and other interviews, <A HREF=/forums/"/misc/interviews">click here</A>.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

And now, the man, the myth, the masturbator, that's right, ME, will answer your stupid questions!

Gasmaske: Male or female?

If you don't know already, look down your trousers. If you see two eggs and a sausage, you're a man, if you see... mysterious object, you're a woman.

Gasmaske: Spit or swallow?

Swallow, naturally. While swallow is not one of birds I eat daily, chicken being always the trusty choice, it is still alive and meaty, and I'd eat it much rather than eating spit. Especially someone else's spit.

Anyone who tries to make double entrende's based on that is guilty of piscicide in a barrel.

MrWhereItsAt: Are you getting enough oxygen?

Yes.

That reminds me. Why do you English-speaking brain-damages insist on giving chemicals stupid names? I mean, sodium and potassium? Who came up with those? You can't help but think "Sodomium" or "Sodoffium" every time you see name sodium, and "potassium" just makes you think Dan Quayle would likely spell it "potassiume." They're natrium and kalium, folks! NaCl is natrium chloride, not sodium chloride! I mean, Na=natrium, K=kalium, what the fjock is so hard about that?

MrWhereItsAt: What is your secret identity?

At day, I'm John Ashcroft, mildly mannered fundamentalist nut who is Attorney General of United States. However, at night, I'm Stefu, the funny Finn of... of... Fenia!

In case you're wondering who George W. Bush is, one word should set you straight: ottok.

MrWhereItsAt: Who is Stefu and why should he/she be interviewed?

I'm John Ashcroft and should be interviewed because otherwise I'll slip hardcore pornography in Solver's computer and then have my brownshirts arrest him. OK, I'm not really John Ashcroft. I'm his live-in gay lover.

Chris 62: Is that gibberish you call Finn an actual langauge, or are you just joshing us?

All I have to say as reply to that is: Huunaja kirstaa rehnikkää kortosta ernikisti.

BeBro: Who made the troll song?

I did. It's based on log song from Ren & Stimpy. It's log, log, it's big and heavy and wood!

Come to think of it, that sounds dirty.

CtG: are you a cantalope?

Haha! America boy misspelled cantaloupe!

Gasmaske: legs, arse or tits?

Look, Gasmaske, you are obviously very confused young ???, so here is some advice you'll need later on:

1. You aren't supposed to get the moonies. Go see a doctor. And no, they aren't supposed to be blue like in that commercial.
2. You aren't supposed to get the hangy things in with the blood-filled thing. And you won't get many chances to use this knowledge, I'll wager.
3. No, when you are in prison, person named "Flagpole Flaganan" isn't a good friend if you want to protect your arse's virginity.

DarkCloud: Do you have a database of information of other posters stored secretly on your desktop to be released at a later date to defame many such as the future politician "Bob Dornan/History049"?

Believe it or not, I once thought of this. Then I decided not to. Not because of ethics or anything, but because I'm lazy.

In fact, I'm so lazy I'm going to stop answering stupid questions for now. Maybe later.

Hmm, mixed feelings...

Besides the fact that Fins should use "the, a and and" more (can't think of the right term here), Stefu tries to be funny too much. We all know he can be a laugh, but I hoped to learn more about the real guy.

Another thing, I hate it when other people mix their comments in an interview.

Great interview!
The funniest yet!

Though the Lazarus section was a bit vulgar

Oh, and Dan/Solver, The "C" in Cloud is capitalized If you can be bothered to correct it

quote:
That's for Markos to decide [and me; on that front, the decision has already been made not to cover SG -- DanQ].

I see that Dan is trying to reclaim his once lofty position

quote:
AnnC's Secret Diary was very therapeutic for me to write

I second that Good email circular

and antoher fix:

quote:
Solver: What do you use to make your smilies?
Stefu: MGI Photosuite. Might not be the best program, but donsarn it, it's what I got. I used Animagic to animate them, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

Apolyton banana thing got started with a poll which asked whether people wanted more nonsensical options in polls. Amongst choices were "Banana", "MikeH", and "I have weasels in my trousers." If I was to choose, I'd go with weasels. Not in trousers, since that's job better left to ferrets, but as nonsensical option. O' well.

Somehow I think this got transplanted.



And a last one:
quote:
Solver: What is your opinion about no [multiplayer] in CivIII?
XStefu: Well, it'd be nice, certainly. I mean, without military police units, how do they keep order amongst regular units? But I digress from my topic, which was MP, which can only mean multiplayer. I'm not particularily bothered about lack of MP, to tell you the truth, since I most likely wouldn't use it. Then again, I might, SO PUT IT IN THERE INSTANTLY GRRMH MURGH!

Who's this "XStefu" fellow? He seems to have replaced Stefu a few times I want to know about "STEFU" not "XSTEFU" !!! I don't want an imitation

Good job
And Good interview

Just checked, I got no XStefu in my document. Dan must have screwed this up (sorry Dan).

As for the interview with Dan, I got #10 reserved, but I guess I could postpone #11 for that. So, tentatively, we can have Dan for the #11 spot. I will want some questions from Markos there, as they're the owners, and will try to beat everything out of Dan!

Dan, prepare .

I never said that they the "XStefu"'s etc. were your fault, Solver, and I certainly did not mean to leave that impression so I will clarify and confirm that they were ever so minor oversights on my part that were quickly corrected upon learning of them. There is no reason for you to apologize.

On a more light-hearted note, I am honoured to be slotted for "FoA" Interview #11 (tentatively).
