Well Satanic Lullabies is entering its sixth year of existence, so, its seen quite a life.
In that life I have received many questions both foul and fair about this site, so, lacking anything better to do (or at least anything which I could get paid for), I have created this FAQ to shut up the endless questions.
Q: You sure like to crap on a lot, don't you?
A: Yeah. Its a great stress reliever.
Q: Are you a psycho or a demon worshipper or something? What is this site?
A: No, I'm not a psycho or demon worshipper, just an apathetic agnostic with a lot of time on his hands. This site is just sort of entertainment for me. If other people enjoy it too, good for them, but I'm not setting out to give some big message to the world. There's enough wankers already doing that.
Q: Why Satanic Lullabies?
A: Beats me. I came up with it one day while in Germany. I wanted a name that was a sort of contradiction in terms. (But I never could find that picture of a demon in a bib). It used to be called the Academy of Thamaturgy, then Academia ex Thaumaturgica, then NTM's Academy.
Q: Don't you ever get tired of making fun of people?
A: Specific people? Yes. People in general. No. People are welcome to make fun of me if they want. I welcome it. BRING IT ON!
Ahem
Q: What's the mountain of pseudonyms - Quentin George, NTM, Azrael, etc, etc. Are you afraid to use your real name?
A: No. My real name's plastered all over this site you dork. I just find it amusing to have all these little nicknames.
Q: What is all this I hear about Falminica, NTM, Guru Al, etc?
A: The Falminican Republic is a sort of fictional country my friends and I invented during a lunch break in senior High. Most of the characters involved in it are parodies of people we knew. Just for kicks me and a couple of friends wrote fiction about this country and we got a little... carried away. You can see the stories here.
Q: Is Ask Azrael a real Agony Uncle, or do you just make up all the entries as well as the replies?
A: Funny you should ask that, but it began purely as a joke on a school friend...then I started to get emails from total strangers. And someone from school I hadn't told about it, printed it out to show to my Chemistry class. Weird how that sort of evolved. Anyway, its been sort of stagnant lately.
Q: What's the deal with Natalie Portman?
A: Yeah, what's with that, huh?
Q: Who is Kitley/Richy/Jan/Dan/Coo-an/Engels etc.. Why are you always mentioning them?
A: People I know. School friends I still keep in contact with. University acquaintances, the like. I won't reveal specifics here, but if you really want to know them, you'll find out enough just by scouting the site and the discussion boards.
Q: What's all this 'to which the malamute' stuff.
A: We call it "Pig Richy". Only a select few are privy to its secrets.
Q: What with all this Star Wars and RPG crap, you must be some sort of nerd, huh?
A: If you say so. Though I notice the term seems to be rather elastic in its definition anyway. At least I'm not a dickhead who paints stuff on his bare chest and stands drunk and half-naked yelling obscenities at a sports event though. Oh wait, that's cool, right?
Q: Are you gay?
A: Wh-what? Why does everyone say that?
Q: Just asking. Sorry
A: That wasn't really a question.
Q: Would you make sweet love to me?
A: Damn it, why won't you girls leave me alone?
