April Community Spotlight - Kroberts11 for the win!
As voted by y'all, the XBA community, this month's Community Spotlight is on Kroberts11. Normally I would indulge myself with a verbose intro but this little lady's answers say it all.
Meta: Okay, so first up, tell XBA a little bit about the Kait behind the Krow-bertz. Include anecdotes from your Xbox Live Spotlight would you kindly.
Kait: The Kait behind the Krowbertz.. hmm. Well, I'm 20, Canadian, but I've lived in the USA for most of my life, and I'm a junior in college in North Carolina. I love sports, mostly soccer and football, and video games/technology in general. And I'm really good looking.
I found out through the XBL Gamer Spotlight that boys really really like girls. Getting selected for that Spotlight was nice, for a few minutes, until the messages and friend reqs. started pouring in. I easily got over 1000 friend requests from that thing, which was crazy, as well as many inappropriate messages asking if I did indeed have a vagina and boobs... I guess some girls don't? However, one good thing came out of that Spotlight - I was told about XBA!
M: What do you like to do when not X-boxin?
K: You can do stuff outside of Xbox? Who knew? Okay but on a serious note, I go to school full-time, studying Accounting which is the MOST FUN you could ever get out of a major... or something. I like working out and playing sports, eating, listening to music, and watching full seasons of TV shows in one day.
M: What are some of said TV shows you've been enjoying lately? And are there any teams or sportsball shout-outs you'd like to make?
K: Amazing Race and Survivor are two of my favorite shows that are just getting started right now, they are both amazing. I have also watched nearly the entire series of Degrassi on Netflix/DVD over about 2 weeks (not including time it took to get said DVDs)... yay Canadian High School Drama! The best kind!
Hopefully my stupid Panthers can get a good pick in the draft this year to propel them to a Superbowl.. HAA good joke. And currently my real 'football' team, Manchester United, was doing well.. and now aren't. So hopefully they can pick it up and win the Premiership as well as the Champions League this season! PS a shout out to Lou - CHELSEA ARE CUNTS!
M: Degrassi, eh? Edgy stuff, eeeedgy stuff. Were Manchester United at the recent World Cup, and do you think they'll be invited to the next one?
Haha well, Manchester United doesn't play in the World Cup because they're a club team, and only countries play in the World Cup . Which by the way, I support the Netherlands, who made it to the finals in 2010 (and should have won!). And unless hell freezes over, they will definitely be in World Cup 2014!
So most of us are privy to the fact that you enjoy the sonic train wrecks of Ke$ha, what other terrible music do you like to groove to?
K: Ke$ha is fantastic, and you just won't admit it. But I listen to everything, honestly. A few of my favorite bands are Metallica, MxPx, Less Than Jake, Britney Spears (helll yeah!), David Guetta, Basshunter, Jack Johnson, Eminem... oh the list goes on. I really do listen to everything from rock, to country, to reggaeton, to pop. Hell, I even obsess with certain musicals as well. My iPod comes with me everywhere, so I'm never without it.
M: Since we've both seen Black Swan now, you must tell me: do you think the late night partying and encounter was just in her head or it really happened and Mila's character is purposely messing with Natalie Portman? And have you seen the movie Pi by the same director?
K: I think the sexy hot partying and SEXY HOT dancing happened, but I don't think the sex happened (unfortunately). And no I've never seen pie.
M: What is your take on the motion gaming thing and Kinect? And what do you think of the 3DS?
K: I had my Wii before I got my 360 because I was a Zelda fanboy and had to get one as soon as it came out to play Twilight Princess. I think the Wii is pretty cool, but once I got my 360 I kinda shoved it aside... I haven't ever tried Move, and honestly don't care to... it looks like a retarded Wii Dildo and I don't swing that way! As for Kinect... I'm glad it was a gift, as $150 plus $50 games are overpriced in my opinion, however, it's SUPER fun. And dangerous, for some people anyway - my roommate (Brie) was on crutches for a week after drop kicking our glass coffee table while playing soccer with her pet lion cub. And in case you were wondering, yes, when I dance to "Evacuate the Dancefloor," I look WAY better than the people on the DC commercials!!
The 3DS looks pretty neat... I wouldn't buy one until it went way down in price, but I may ask for one for Christmas, again, just so I can play the Zelda remake on it, since I'm slightly obsessed. Plus, I don't really have a DS of my own anyway (my mom has one she doesn't ever use, but won't give me, and Brie's is well, not mine.), so it'd be cool to get one when it came out.
M: Who is your favourite actor and actress, and who would you pick to play you in your bio pic, and who would play Brie?
K: Oh man, I am so bad at answering all of these questions. I can never pick a favorite actor/actress off the top of my head... hmmm.. actor, possibly Channing Tatum, Robert DeNiro, Matt Damon, Vin Diesel. Actress... Jordana Brewster, Eliza Dushku, and the girls from Sex and the City. I'm sure I'm forgetting somebody important that I love, but oh well!
As for my movie... I think Ali Larter would be a good me. Sexy, badass, and awesome. As for Brie... someone with perfect tits and a cute face... haha but really, I like a Jordana Brewster on her. Cute, charismatic, charming... yum.
M: When you play an RPG such as Dragon Age, what type of character do you most like to create and play? An in-your-face warrior, conniving rogue, or fruity mage?
K: I love warriors and rogues, but usually choose to start with a big bad warrior RAWR. In DAO I made a female warrior, in which I lived vicariously through re: sexing up every character in the game. But I decided to be a male warrior n DAII because I loved the big burliness of the original Hawke... I didn't change his appearance at all because we connected on a certain level that was just unexplainable. My second playthrough is always a rogue, and my third is a mage.
M: What is your favourite internet meme, and what is one you are tucking fired of?
K: Hmmm... some of my favorite memes are Lolcats + Halolz, >9000 and a classic, All Your Base ARE BELONG TO US! Those all make me - NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP NEVER GONNA LET YOU DOOOWNNNNNNN - smile. One I really dislike? I was never a huge fan of play him off keyboard cat.. but to each his own, I suppose?
So there you have 'er, folks. If there's something else you'd like to know, you can post here. Special thanks to Rev1318 for the kick-ass header graphic!!
