Design, advertising and marketing. And I pwn people. (maybe I need to disable anonymous questions... because I'm curious: who's asking?)

Was watching Locked Up Abroad today, and thought about all of the crazy reasons people have for going to, and living in, weird places.
I'm not thrilled by the idea of moving, and thought that others' passions might spark something.
I wouldn't want to actually live inside LA city limits, however. -
Fifth amendment, buddies.

No. I have some other shooters, though, including Borderlands GOTY. My ID is "rainfault"

I spent most of my time running away from rabid animals and people. I like to play with the local squirrels that come by my building; we chat about our days, I watch them eat their little nuts, sometimes I bring a peanut or pistachio for them—and I try to keep them from freaking out when a neighbor's dog approaches. There's this cute little Maltese I like to see.
I don't usually make resolutions to add significance to the first of a new year. I do make plans, but right now, I've been thinking about Mass Effect & Dragon Age 2. I need a new TV and I need to move. -
Ever tried to throw wood with a chainsaw? Not easy. Throwing chainsaws—now that's pretty cool. Especially at the park, at people—parents with their small children—rev' it up and yell "hey, catch" and launch the fucker.
It's not an everyday thing, though. Great for holidays and other special occasions, however. -
Sorry. I don't understand the words you have used. It may provoke in one unlike myself a sense of anxiety. I'm new to English, too. I haven't even used it for a quarter-century. 英語わからない

Mostly myth. This happens very rarely. Most of the time, the shooters shoot themselves instead after experiencing nugpoioils

I think Bleach is pretty cool. Almost as cool as Star Trek.

[Note: I somewhat foolishly composed my reply to your question in Taptivate's app "Spring" for iPhone and lost it all due to a crash while attempting to "send" (publish?) the answer. Attempt No. 02]
In many ways, success is like beauty—perhaps foremost, it's in the eyes of the beholder.
Success is a difficult thing to judge in others; as everyone values different things, and what equates to success for one might equate to failure for another—let's call him "two." One might want a wife and kids, and to live in a suburban area with good schools... while two might want a fast, luxurious car and a penthouse condo in a high-rise, living single with supermodel girlfriends.
People may value money, power, knowledge, love, fame, safety—but never all equally.
I see success as something best measured in bits and pieces. To acquire success in one thing often requires sacrificing something else. It's unlikely that anyone is successful in all vital areas all of the time.
I think that if people achieve the true goals they set for themselves and progress—looking/thinking forward, that's success. Happiness is important, too.
Often the more success you have, the harder it is to maintain. It's easier to clean a puddle than it is to clean a swimming pool—and a swimming pool is far simpler than keeping a lake clean. Just look at Lake Merritt's water and "coastline..." an example of some failure, that is.
I value to-do lists, journalizing and project management tools because they help to focus energy and keep things accountable. Success is a battle against entropy, and it isn't always pretty. Sometimes attrition is unavoidable; it might be necessary to bite, scratch, bleed—crawl to the finish line... because the race can be brutal, with vicious competitors also seeking the same success.
In summary, success is about setting goals and reaching them while figuring out how to retain happiness and perpetuate the process.
[Another note: I'm glad I got to use Formspring.me—it'd be nice to do so more often. Hopefully more friends and pupils use it.] -
I finally figured out how to answer this.

I love type! I offer this as some proof: http://superfloo.us/journal/2010/7/10/why-you-shouldnt-steal-fonts.html

Could you please be more specific? What kind of project, and what do you mean by for my own "sake?"
Sometimes I spend a fair amount of time or money initially, but my "projects" are usually profitable.
For future reference (everyone): I can answer questions more completely when A) the question isn't vague or non-specific; B) you don't ask anonymously. -
I know. I found it funny, though — thought I'd share.
-
Sorry, dear. I'm in high demand. There's a line just to get into my fan club.

Is this like Jeopardy, where the question is an answer?
