• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Meaning behind your Username and/or Usertitle

    Uh, when I first joined up to the forums, I had an avatar of a purple Snorlax with a Scizor claw that looked like it was plotting the downfall of mankind and I was just discovering Internet lingo, so I thought it would be ~radical~ if I used some in my username. I've contemplated changing it a...

    Are you a Supernatural believer?

    Am I the only one who's noticed that the middle two responses are not actually answers to the question "do you believe in the supernatural?".

    Are you a Supernatural believer?

    There's no unexplained phenomena that's bizarre enough for me to jump from "we don't understand this thing that happened" to "holy shit ghosts", so no, I'm not a believer.

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    Mfw I realise I've been thinking pathos and Phantom are the same person and that they were simultaneously indoctrinated into both Catholicism and Judaism;

    Tropes that describe you.

    Adorkable: Or so I'm told, at any rate. Bi The Way: I'm bisexual, but in a long-term committed monogamous heterosexual relationship, so any time my sexuality comes up, it's kind like this trope. Brilliant But Lazy: I'm highly capable in a broad range of academic and creative disciplines but...

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    Can't be certain but it seems likely that when she said "American Catholic Church", she meant "the Catholic Church in America" rather than the tiny independent Catholic movement called the "American Catholic Church". Hopeandjoy seems at least moderately aware of what the RCC is and how it works...

    Share your CD collection

    I don't have very many CD boxes to photo due to the Great CD Case Holocaust of 2009, but I can give a quick rundown of the albums I have physical copies of; Beyond the Horizon - People In Planes Tales From The Punchbowl - Primus Progress - Take That Progress Live - Take That Out of Time -...

    Favorite "Villain Songs"?

    I'm a villain fanboi, so this one is always difficult for me to answer, such is the level of oversaturation of villain songs in my mind. 1. "Everything You Ever" - Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog 2. "The Hounds" - The Protomen Act II: The Father of Death 3. "Hellfire" - The Hunchback of Notre...

    How many words do you know?

    Apparently I know 27, 100 words, which seems like a load of baloney to me, frankly.

    What are you reading? II

    Have started Catch-22, finding it pretty hilarious. My aunt is buying me one hundred euro worth of books from Amazon for my eighteenth birthday, so I'm getting some pretty sweet titles soon enough, including Maus and The God Delusion.

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Re: What Games Are You Playing? (Redux) Since my mocks are almost over, I'll be taking up the UNHOLY TRINITY (feat. Fallout: New Vegas) again. The UNHOLY TRINITY being Arkham City, AC: Revelations and, of course, Skyrim.

    What are you reading? II

    I tried to read Paolini's Inheritance but considering I've read the likes of Anathem and The Stand since I read Brisingr, my tolerance for literary stupidity has plummeted too far to tolerate it. I gave up on Sophie's World because the translation was really childish and uninteresting...

    Mental health support in your country

    As someone who has seen the mental health side of things, I can give more detail to Coroxn's comments on the Irish mental health services. Frankly, like most of the HSE, they are populated by excellent frontline staff but the administration is utterly incompetent and overbloated while there's a...

    I did, though I just realised that I forgot the academic awards night at my school and apparently someone made a speech about me that I missed.

    Products of our Environments

    Yeah, but the only reason you can't see the colourful bits is because you don't have a powerful enough microscope. There are no circumstances in which you can know the thoughts of another person. Also, helium was a terrible example anyway; noble gases don't react (except for in extreme...

    What is the biggest problem in today's world?

    Imbalances in social power - between the state and the nation, between the wealthy and the poor, between the religious and the areligious, etc.
