The Interview: Tic Tac Addict
Tell us a bit about yourself …
I’m 24 and live in Surrey.
I support Arsenal and work as a Recruitment Consultant in the engineering industry.
I play 5 a-side football (for the mighty ‘Phantom of the Chopra’) in defense with a knack of scoring goals and am an all round good guy.
As well as football, I enjoy playing darts, pool and Badminton (various amounts of each) and like drinking/watching football and regularly do both.
I also like cooking and playing on the x-box in my spare time.
What’s your highest qualification?
A-Levels. English Literature and Business Studies (I got a U in Psychology AS levels if that means anything?)
Why TicTacAddict? Do you like them THAT much?
You should never take anything I say literally.
No, I am not addicted to Tic Tacs and do not shake if I haven’t had one for a while, constantly wondering where my next Tic Tac is coming from.
But, I do like them. I don’t know why. I was a pack a day person at one point, although I’ve cut down recently, would now last me a couple of days.
Normally get a pack of four, keep three in the office and take one to the car so I nearly always have some on me.
I can’t tell you when it started, or why, but they do say humans are creature of habit and for me that habit is Tic Tacs.
Usually not in the morning (well, one when I get in the car), but then after lunch to home I munch away (only one at a time though, never two or more like some uneducated people do)
LSOE. Racist or misunderstood?
I’m not sure, but he certainly wants to present himself as one.
Is he actually? Who knows.
I get the strong impression that LSOE just wants to be controversial, and it doesn’t matter what that means.
If the Nazi’s were in power, he’d be a Communist. If the Communists were in power, he’d be a Nazi.
My U in AS Psychology tells me that he had bad parents as a child and the only way he could get attention was by acting up. This is what he is doing now, acting up for attention. Only he isn’t clever enough to do it, so he has to steal from LittleJohn, his father who never was.
What's you favourite non alcoholic and alcoholic drink?
Alcoholic: Baileys coffee. You couldn’t obviously drink them one after the other in a pub. But I LOVE that drink. Honestly, if you haven’t tried it, you haven’t lived.
Non Alcoholic: Tea. Don’t really drink coke etc so has to be tea. Gets me through the days! I know what you’re thinking, awfully English of me.
Who do you hate more? Spurs or Chelsea?
Spurs, no two ways about it.
I actually quite liked Chelsea and some of their players when I was going up (the likes of Zola and Wise) and this was due to a lot of my family being Chelsea (a divide in the family…).
But NO ONE is a Yid.
Every team needs that one team that they can’t stand, it’s healthy for the game and makes great entertainment for the neutral.
What’s your favourite tic tacs? mint or the multi coloreds?
Mint
If you are asked to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth and your the main witness, what happens if you say "no"?
You wouldn’t say no though, would you?
One of those examples where you either would and so you would say yes or you are a liar and you would say yes as a result...
Nobody would admit that they are about to lie and then lie, unless they are a very bad liar.
Do you like cheesy Wotsits?
No, I don’t like Cheesy Wotsits.
I don’t eat crisps of any kind now, but when I did I never liked Cheesy Wotsits anyway.
Although, I have a funny feeling you weren’t talking about the actual crisps…
Does Jere spout the biggest amount of crap ever in the Arsenal forum or what?
Ha ha everyone is entitled to their opinion, and some I agree with and some I don’t. I have to say, Jere I don’t often (if ever)…but if you agreed with everyone there would be no need for Forum!
New Thread: I think this
Everyone else: I agree!
How boring would that be?!
Why do you think you know everything?
It’s a gift…
That’s half a question and half a statement.
I don’t think I know everything. Far from it.
Are you easily offended or do you see yourself as quite a laid back person who can have a laugh and a joke?
I’m quite laid back.
I’m no hippie, but if someone says something about me I take it in good humour. I don’t often get offended but like all people do have my own ‘pressure button’.
But…its not really a question you can answer yourself. I always think those type of questions are best answered by those who know you. So…do you think I am quite laid back person who can have a laugh and a joke?
You say you don't believe in God. Have you ever thought about becoming a Muslim?
No
But seriously. If you don't believe in God, that means you don't think anyone will judge you, which means you can do all sort of evil things because you don't think you're going to hell. How do you handle this? Do you have any morals?
People judge me all the time. My work colleagues, my friends, my family…so that’s a ridiculous statement to make. In fact, I’m judging you (I’m assuming Calean?) for making that very statement.
I don’t think I’m going to hell, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have morals. I do have morals, I like to think very strong morals so I have nothing at all to ‘handle’.
Because I don’t believe in God, I don’t spend my days plotting to take over the world.
Christians annoy me. They are very self-righteous, more so than any other religion I would say (certainly in my experience). How many times have you heard ‘I wouldn’t do that, I’m a Christian’ as if that’s some sort of defense? Often said by people who HAVE just done that.
Christians think they are better than anyone else, and anyone who isn’t a Christian is missing out on something…hence the Holy Crusades.
This isn’t all of them, and I’ve met some very nice ones with quite open views, but a lot of them preach about other religions and the non religious with some sort of ‘I am mightier than you’ view that instantly makes a mockery of their own preaching. And they can’t see it.
Example of a Good religious person: Puerco
Example of a Bad Religious person: Calean
Would you like to be a mod here?
No way. I’m not on here enough to be a good mod, plus some of the crap those guys get...not my cup of tea. I wouldn’t have the patience for it, fair play to those that do, because with me as Mod I think the forum would go down quicker than a recently blown on Drogba.
Craziest 24-7 member?
Who’s that guy who doesn’t say much at all, but every now and again pops up with some random crap? I can’t remember his name, will let you know when I next see him.
Who is your least favourite user of all time... got to be Geeman?
LSOE. This guy posts LittleJohn crap and tries to pass it off on his own. It wouldn’t be so bad if he posted it and said ‘this is what I think’. But he doesn’t, he posts it and says ‘this guy is really spot on’ and then goes about sucking him off. He then tries to say the most controversial thing to get a rise out of people.
I often stay away from him and rarely go into any of his threads. Every now and again I snap though, but try to just say something quick and sarcastic rather than get into an argument because at the end of the day, you can’t win an argument against someone who doesn’t have any views to call his own. He’s just a middle man between me and LittleJohn.
Who is more evil, Stalin or Thatcher?
Thatcher. The bitch stole my milk.
To be fair Stalin never did anything to me. I always judge people on their actions towards me, not others.
Championship football, who would be your chosen team and why?
I don’t really have any preferences in the Championship.
Further down it would be Brentford, my best mate played for their reserve team and a lot of my drinking days have been held surrounded by Brentford supporters.
If I was pushed for the Championship I would say Ipswich just because of that year they came up when they finished 5th (I think) and had some really good players. A lot of whom stayed in the Premier League when they went down.
How many fingers am I holding up?
Holding up where?
You're not funny. Discuss
I very possibly am not. It really depends on the point of view on the questioner.
I have a sense of humor that some people really quite like, but a lot of people really do not. So you’re obviously the person that doesn’t, and that’s fine by me.
People think I tell jokes to make other people laugh, and I don’t, it’s just an added bonus if they do. I tell jokes because it makes me laugh, and in particular the reactions of others when I tell particularly dry/dark ones.
If you were to recommend a comedy TV programme to us all, what would it be?
Probably the first few series of Peep Show.
If you owned an invisible pig what would you call him?
‘Tottenham finishing in the top four this season’.
It’s a long name, I’d probably just shorten it to ‘Lol’, and my reason being you can’t see either of those things, can you?
The world is going to hell in a hand basket, so if you were like the ruler of the world, what would you do to stop it?
I can honestly say I’ve never been asked that before.
What would I do? Erm…I’m not sure. What could I do to stop it?
I’m not sure how the physics of this world works
Best up and coming player at Arsenal?
So many to chose from, but Wilshere looks different gravy. Can’t wait for him to get a little older.
2012...scary stuff eh
I’m crapping myself at the very possibility.
Sith or Jedi?
Is that a Star Trek thing? I’m one of those people that have never watched it. Not much of a film fan, especially science fiction.
Do you fancy yourselves to win the Champions League?
I think we can, especially if we continue playing the way we have started. But there are so many teams that can win it…who knows, a bit of skill and a lot of luck and anything can happen. Until you are out, you always have to believe your team can win it, or how can they?
I really think its why Liverpool have over achieved in that competition recently. To win it after being three goals down at half time? Possibly the best game of football I’ve ever watched, and the players were able to do it because the fans never gave up on them and drove them forward.
I really do think that Arsenal, with one of the greatest first 11 in the world at the moment, are let down big time by their 12th man. We need to get behind the team and not boo or gasp so much in the stadium.
Do you still think that we're interested in your misfortunes with ladies? By the way, what happened with that fat one you disliked but would do anyway?
Some were, as you obviously are too….
I posted something different and I though amusing, some agreed and some didn’t. But would I do it again? Always!
Anyway, that girl? Nothing happened, we met again and then she became crazy(ier) and so I ignored her.
The standard boy meets fat girl, fat girl falls in love with boy, boy thinks about ******* her, fat girl becomes crazy, boy runs away story.
If you could take one player from Spurs, who would it be and why?
I wouldn’t. I seriously wouldn’t.
If they could stay fit I would have taken King or Woodgate. Both quality, quality defenders. But they can’t stay fit and King is really just a cripple (he makes Scoot look lazy. Scoot…look at King and you really have no excuses)
Do you actually watch football?
Yes, constantly. Almost any premiership game that is on, and even a lot of lower leagues. Don’t watch many European games which is why I shy away from conversations involving European teams or players. But within England? Yeah, lots.
Why not try and be original instead of hanging on to bambers pubes?
Bambers pubes must be made out of steel nylon!
I am always trying to be original. I’ve never copied anything Bamber has said so I have no worries there. If we are both similar people, which I don’t think we are I just think we have a similar sense of humour, but if we are similar people then so be it.
Do you like being called ticktock?
Yes, but only when you call me it. It makes me feel special.
The Inbetweeners, discuss.
I watched the first series for the first time last weekend funnily enough.
I thought it was very funny…anyone with an immature sense of humour and who doesn’t take things too literally then watch this as it is funny.
Its like Peep Show for teenagers (that adults can also like)
Rangers and Celtic...any preference.....if so why?
Rangers of course.
Step dad is rangers, his family is rangers, my best friend is rangers and I know the words to the national anthem.
So really, it has to be rangers!
What was the name of your high school?
Glyn Technology School
Why are you still a virgin?
I never knew a priest as a kid
Will you be watching the “David vs. Goliath” fight at the weekend or is boxing not your thing?
Not really my thing.
Least favourite sport and why?
Cricket. Don’t mind playing it, but watching? My god…any sport that can last for four days and still end a draw isn’t a sport for me.
Who will win the A) Premier League, B) FA Cup, C) Carling Cup?
I’d like to say Arsenal to all, and I firmly believe that we will be there or there abouts with all of them…but if I was to use my head I would say:
Premier League: Chelsea (so strong and experienced)
FA Cup: Liverpool (might have nothing else to go for so will give it all in this competition)
Carling Cup: Man City (they really want to win something with their investment and this might be it. I do believe they will beat our kids because they are at home and I can imagine will play with a strong team)
Your five favourite members are ...
In no particular order they probably are:
Manic Loopy
Fredo
Leeman
McVince (as I always read it anyway)
Leeman
