Well, since you probably know what I'm talking about, is it just me, or is the Sun Crusher the dumbest thing you've ever heard about?

sonnets
I think I might get obsessed with John Cale and silent films next

Sexuality will probably always been an interest for me so I don't really count it when I'm talking about my special interests. It's what I plan to build my career around.

Right now they are:
Music of the indie rock persuasion. (Too bad I only have 2 GB of space left on my iPod.)
School shootings.
Pretty Little Liars.

Previous special intrests: (These are only from the last few years.)
Richard Ramirez.
Winnie the Pooh.
Jackrabbits.
Marilyn Manson. (Not just his music, his personal life and his life before his music career got started.)
World War 2.
Piranhas.
Alacatraz. (I remember when my Grandma went to Cali and she told the tour guide I loved that place and he let her film the whole tour for me. I think I peed myself.)

Not that SW is about practicality, but there's still a certain level of believability! Plus, you can't bring up the Death Star as the worst weapon in the universe and then...

I feel like there are tons of these threads, but they're interesting anyways. My posts probably seem to be different in each of them, because I have many interests as opposed to the very few ones I had when I was younger. However, they are still pretty limited to primarily academic interests (such as linguistics, genetics, biology, psychology, science in general, philosophy, literature, history, etc.) and I also like arts, such as... well, what we usually refer to as art, music, literature, etc. I also like to learn about the Holocaust, and WWII in general.
I really like the game osu! now, hence the current avatar.

My past intense, singular special interest was Presidents of the United States, particularly JFK. It lasted for about seven or eight years... maybe more; I didn't really keep track of time as it was in my primary school days and early secondary school days. I have yet to have an interest so intense (though I desire one), and I am currently most interested in languages and literature. I hope I have a very intense interest again sometime.

I go through phases that last anywhere from a couple of days to a few months, though, where I'm interested in a topic or two, then I suddenly drop interest or the interest lessens greatly.

I'm just saying, the death star can destroy a planet, but it's the size of a moon and it has many weaknesses. The sun crusher is no bigger than the millennium falcon, it's indestructible, and it can blow up an entire solar system. Isn't that just a bit ridiculous?
