===About me===

I like, well, games, preferably older [[w:Computer and video games|video or computer games]].  I do not own a [[w:History of video game consoles (seventh generation)|current-generation game console]], but would not mind an [[w:Xbox 360|Xbox 360]] (I want to play [[w:Geometry Wars|Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved]] and see it for myself), and I do have a PC.  I also like [[w:Lindsay Lohan|Lindsay Lohan]] and many other [[w:Red hair|redheads]].  (My icon here is from an image on a (currently [[NSFW]]) site of mine, [http://dirtylittlegirl.ytmnd.com/ Lindsay wants it BAD].)

====Votes and viewing habits====

I try to give votes from [[Image:1_star.gif]] to [[Image:5_stars.gif]] and amounts in between.

I usually like to check [[Up and Coming]] sites, but if I give too many [[Image:4_stars.gif]] and [[Image:5_stars.gif]] votes I'll check [http://random.ytmnd.com/ random sites] to find awful ones.

====Comments====

I like [[w:Emoticons#East_Asian_style|verticons]] like '''o_0''', like [http://ytmnd.com/users/Asgard01/comments Asgard01 does], but I use them far less in my comments.

Sometimes I like to type an elongated "sweet" (e.g., "sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet").

My "This just killed [[NEDM]]" [http://ytmnd.com/sites/profile/519607 comment] on [http://ytmnd.com/users/reggie-wanker/ reggie-wanker]'s [http://pelhamfunk.ytmnd.com/ Taking of Pelham] gave rise to his follow-up, [http://omgtheykillednedm.ytmnd.com/ OMG They Killed-].

One of my comments [http://ytmnd.com/sites/profile/413886 here] led to the use of Lavos' Theme in "[[holy crap]], a meteor!" and its derivatives.

====Fads====

I prefer to stay away from [[Fads|fad]]-based sites and make strict-style ones (I often say "Strict YTMND ftw" on others' sites), but I may make one at times if, for instance, I like the music, premise, or character involved ([http://secretislamicsailorjupiter.ytmnd.com/ Secret Islamic Sailor Jupiter], for example, for the cute girl and cool music).  I also despise fad sites that ignore core aspects of their respective fad (including many "Epic Maneuver"-type sites).

If I had to choose one [[Comparison_of_fad_remakes|alternate universe]], it would probably be [[YesYes]], because I have seen some smart sites made for that.
