Joke of the Week


Fly


A family are driving behind a garbage truck when a dildo flies out and thumps against the windscreen.

Embarrassed, and to spare her young son's innocence, the mother turns around and says, "Don't worry; that was an insect."

To which, her son replies, "I'm surprised it could get off the ground with a penis like that."

JoeInterview's Member Feature


This week's interview features CRA-Z_HEART. This interview was conducted by travbowman.

JoeInterview: First off, how did you find YT?

CRA-Z_HEART: I found YT through I-Am-Bored. One day, IAB connected itself with the YT chat room and I started off in there. After the direct link in IAB went missing, some of the regulars pointed me to the link on YT. And thus my YT times had began.

JI: What would you say is the biggest reason you keep coming back for more?

CZH: The people in chat we're like family to me. Oh, sure we didn't get along at ALL times, but I spent a lot, if not too much time there.

Eventually chat started to spiral downward so I went to forums, and around my 2000th post, I was hooked and then Buddy closed chat. But because I was hooked to forums I still stayed.

JI: What's the best thing about living in Minnesota?

CZH: Oh, wow. Honestly, I have no idea what the 'best' thing is. I like how dispursed the place is, but that makes it hard to get to the family up North.

I also appreciate how the weather is perfect in the Spring and Fall, considering are very cold winters and very humid summers. But really, i can't decide what's best. ...I like the fishing.

JI: Describe the best fishing experience you've ever had to us.

CZH: Oh, easy. I was, what? Six, seven or eight? We were fishin on my grandparents like, good old Lake Six. I know, the state has so many lakes that we cant even name them all. Let's just say the fishing was pretty much horrible that day.

We had caught a 'few' sizable bass, but pretty much nothin' else but sun-fish. Small sunnies. I for one, kept hooking the same sunny around 5 times. He had the same markings around his cheeks and was the same size each time, so he appeared to be the same. Needless to say he was unkeepable.

Then I hooked what I thought was just him again, only stronger. After I fought and fought him up to the surface it revealed that it was actually a foot long Northern. My cousin said I pretty much saved dinner. That fish was some good eatin'.

JI: What does family mean to you?

CZH: A place to crash until I graduate from high school and can finally get my own place. Just kidding, but seriously. To me, family is pretty much people that you can go to anything about without feeling uncomfortable. Unfortunatly, the only relationship with whom I can do that is my older brother.

JI: What's the best advice he's ever given you?

CZH: Always go to him before I go to my mom, my dad, or my step-dad about the really big stuff.

JI: Where do you see yourself in ten years?

CZH: Well it really depends on which road of two roads I've pathed myself out for that I decide to take. I could either be

a) Doing as much research and study on Cryptids as I possibly can in order to prove or de-bunk the existence of certain Cryptids. Or I could be b) a starviing actor trying to make it in Hollywood, but first Broadway.

JI: Have you done much acting so far?

CZH: I've been acting since 5th grade, so four years now. I was in all but one of my middle school plays, starting with the spring play of Peter Pan where I played a lost boy named Slightly.

I guess you could say my 'Role Standard' shot up in the fall play of my 7th grade year when I was casted as the Lion in the Wizard of Oz. My favorite role I had in middle school was my 8th grade performance of Suessical where I played The Cat in the Hat.

I had a lot of fun performing at Ellis but now I'm in the highschool, and during the school's fall music performance of Little Shop of Horrors I was one of two freshmen to make it into the play. I was cast as 'The Voice' and a Wino but the director admitted to me that I can play very flexible roles.

I don't know why I started acting but I've loved doing it since I started.

JI: Is it more difficult to do drama or comedy?

CZH: Tough question...I guess I would have to say comedy because when I know I'm doing something funny it can hard for me to remain my composure. But I still love both.

JI: What would be your dream role?

CZH: Honestly, I don't know. I usually try to take whatever role is offered to me and just do my best to get one of the higher roles. For some odd reason, I've always wanted to be in a movie with Tom Hanks.

JI: What sort of music has been getting the most spin from you lately?

CZH: I listen to a variety of all types of music. I have a whole music folder dedicated just to random songs from random artists. It has everything from various artists from various genres. But really, I guess i would have to say that I mostly listen to Classic Rock and Hard Rock.

The bands that I have several songs that I continue to play include Van Halen, Guns N' Roses, Black Stone Cherry, and R.E.M. But really, I listen to just about everything.

JI: What artist would most be surprised to learn is in your playlist?

CZH: I dont think I could choose just one big one. There are a few artists I'm sure I have that would be surprised being a mostly hard rocker that I am... But I do have some different stuff:
TLC. South Paw. Tony Basil. Sugar Ray. even Paula Abdul. I'm a slave to cliche 80s music.

JI: You get to meet up with any three YTers anywhere you want. Where are you going and who is there?

CZH: Hmm..... Miss Amadeus, Miss ScottyDog, and whoever else wants to come because I can't think of a third.

And we'd probably go everywhere. Cause that's how we roll.

JI: So a big roadtrip with Amadeus and ScottyDog, eh? What's the best snack food for a giant roadtrip?

CZH: Beef Jerky and Mountain Dew.

JI: On the topic of food, what's your forte in the kitchen?

CZH: I can't cook worth crap. All I know how to do is boil water, and therefore make Ramen and regular noodles. I prefer the microwave.

JI: What's your most prized possession and why?

CZH: My Wrestlemania 21 Edition Figure of Eddie Guerrero. I'm a die-hard wrestling fan, and when Eddie died.. it hit me pretty hard.

When I got the figure for Christmas, it really meant a lot to me. I've kept it in my room ever since.

JI: Who is the greatest wrestler of your lifetime?

CZH: There are several great competitors in Wrestling that I love to watch. Lately the WWE has been a little lack-luster compared to what it used to be, and to me, that makes it hard to decide who the best performer is.

I don't know who the 'best' is, but I'd have to say my favorite wrestlers of the current generation would have to be Miz and Morrison. I dont know what I love so much about those guys

JI: Whose sense of humour gets you to laugh every time you read/watch/hear it?

CZH: Oh, easily the guys that do Cyanide and Happiness. And Ralphie May. Annnnnd... the guys that did Whose Line is it Anyway.

JI: What's your most difficult course in school?

CZH: Hm.... I dont know, theyre all equal to me. I guess AP American History.

JI: Your profile description shows a Bible verse. Is this a particular favourite of yours, or just a message you wanted to get across?

CZH: That verse is in fact my favorite verse. However, I do believe that if someone who is a Christian reads it, I would hope that they understand that when someone questions, or even insults their faith, there is no reason to be upset.

JI: What do you imagine Heaven to be like?

CZH: The only word that can be used to describe it is 'Perfect'.

JI: Dying and hanging out with the Creator aside, what would be the perfect way to spend a weekend?

CZH: Well, it depends on the mood. Sometimes I wanna get out and do something. Hang out with the friends, go to some Youth Group activity, and be crazy.

But sometimes I just wanna hang out, talk on the phone and sit on the computer all weekend. I guess a perfect weekend.. would be one where something memorable happens.

JI: If Buddy decided to sell YT to you for a dollar, what would be the first thing you would change about the place?

CZH: I would envoke stricter spelling and grammar rules. Posting a spam journal, and posting an actual journal is one thing. But combining the two by making an actual full blown journal in horrible spelling and netspeak... that is just unacceptable.

JI: Do you have a parting shot to share with your fellow YTers?

CZH: To all you people of YT, I've made some friends on this site, I've met some people that don't like me. But I don't care. All I have to say to all of you is this: You better get used to me, because I ain't leavin. I got no reason to.

Featured Article of the Week


This doesn't have a title yet. I hope you enjoy.
Excerpt: I took a chance. I tried to move my arms. I quickly discerned they had been pulled above my head. I pulled on them and found them fastened at the wrist to something that stopped my efforts to resist. I pulled at my feet. Fastened at the ankles.
