They call me Phatastic, however, feel free to call me Phat, or by my IRL name, Kenny. I only stream skilling & PvM content, so please don't expect much else. The 200m's and PvM killcounts aren't ganna get themselves, after all. Type !plans in the chat for more information regarding my goals on RuneScape.
When I stream, I like to joke around and laugh at stuff, (including myself), even if the subject isn't appropriate or funny at all. With that being said, I'm not a big fan of small-talk. However, I understand most people use it as an instrument to be friendly or to pass awkward silence. We can be social and friendly to each other without asking rhetorical questions and without bringing up any random subject with the sole intention of relieving the dead-air.
If I had to choose, I would much rather engage in an actual conversation about something that we both show interest in. Examples include, but is not limited to: gaming, life, interests, theories, stories, current events, controversial topics, and so on and so forth.
WARNING
MY INTERESTS AND MORE ABOUT ME
Video games: My favorite 3 video games (in order) are SOCOM 2, OldSchool Runescape, and competitive Left 4 Dead 2.
Movies: My top 5 favorites (in order): 2001: A Space Odyssey, Interstellar, The Matrix, Good Will Hunting, and The Shawshank Redemption.
Music: My favorite genre is rap/hip-hop, but I'm open to listening to anything aside from country, opera, and jazz.
Documentaries: Prison, North Korea, Space, Nature/Wildlife, War, True Crime, and more.
TV Shows: My favorite show is South Park, however, I REALLY enjoyed Breaking Bad. Please recommend a binge-worthy show, I'm currently looking for one!
Sports: I enjoy watching & playing pretty much every "American" sport except for basketball. I love watching old boxing fights, mainly from the era of Muhammad Ali (the original and true GOAT)... Boxing aside, when it comes to my favorite sport, it's hockey by a long shot. Specifically 1990's-2010. Not only would I watch as many NHL games as I could, but I also played throughout my entire childhood. Over the years, I've come to realize how much of an impact it's had on shaping the person I am today - 13 years of wholesome fun, deep friendships, learning to trust others, developing teamwork skills, determination to get better, discipline, the absolute euphoria of any much-deserved success after a ton of hard work... However, the best lesson of them all, is failure. Failure happens too much in life, and I feel fortunate enough to learn how to deal with it the best way I possibly could've (given my age). *Who knew some of life's most important lessons could come from something as simple as having fun out on the ice when you're just a kid?...
Psychology: I've attended college courses, but have not made it far enough to do anything with it... yet. I'm fascinated by the way the human brain works. For instance... what we do, why we do it, Nature vs. Nurture, child development... The usual stuff. But what intrigues me the most is trying to understand the mind of criminals. I plan to return to classes in hopes of eventually getting a reasonable degree that's in my budget to achieve. I know I can do it, and when I do, I feel as though it would be in my best interest to become a criminal psychologist. A criminal psychologist's job is to analyze the behavior of a criminal, both inside and outside the courtroom, and ultimately "profile" them with the intentions of aiding law enforcement and the legal system to better understand the criminal. When criminal psychologists are used in court cases, they often are heavily relied on to give the most accurate and probable testimony. This CAN have an influence on whether the person is found innocent or guilty of a crime.
Chess: I don't actively play anymore, but started at a very young age (maybe 6?), and was actually ranked high, even though I was a young kid playing against adults online on a website called Pogo.com. I gained a lot of experience on Pogo and began to play people in person. No classmate of mine wanted to play me, and neither did the kids at the summer camps I'd attend every summer... I'd beat everyone who gave me the time of day to sit down and play a game at the table, so pretty soon they got sick of losing and wouldn't show interest in playing me anymore. (Shout out to my Grandpa who would still decide to play a few games with me when we were spending time together <3). Shortly after seeing how difficult it was to consistently play games against people, my main focus turned towards sports (for better or worse).
Smoking: I smoke weed, ranging from 0.3 grams to 1 gram a day. I only smoke out of bowls and bongs, unless a joint or blunt gets rolled while hanging out with some peers. People are often surprised as to how long I can make my 'stash' last. Saves $, that's fine by me!
I also smoke cigarettes (Newports), about 5 cigs per day. It could be better, but I haven't increased the amount of cigarettes I smoke per day for over 10 years now. I'm not saying that's a good thing (smoking for 10 years and all), but at least I'm not up to a pack a day... right?
Drinking: Ah, yes. The drinking. My family has a long history with alcoholism (excluding my mom), so I expected to follow in their shoes ever since i was an adolescent. Fortunately for me, my Mom was (still is) a great parent, so I went my whole life without drinking until relatively recently (6 months ago, give or take a couple). It started off by only drinking a few Mike's Hard Lemonades to get drunk, and I chose those because I have to say... they're the best at masking the horrendous taste of alcohol - well enough to the point where it feels like you're drinking regular lemonade. However, I do have an addictive personality, so I started to drink more and more of that delicious lemonade. Now I've graduated to drinking lemonade-flavored TRULYS... and quite a few of them at that.
I will be continuing to do drunk streams, but please, don't ask me to have a drink at any point during the livestream (especially if I'm sober). I want us to have a good time, and I'm well-aware that alcohol spices up my streams. With that being said, I realize I'm developing a dependence for it, so I'm going to do my best to try to moderate the consumption of it before I let it turn into a bigger problem than it's already become.
Animals: HUGE ANIMAL LOVER!!! My favorite type of animal? Dogs... I currently have the pleasure of sharing my humble abode and these years of my life with two amazing dogs. Lucy... Slinky... you girls have always been there for me, especially when I've needed you the most. The unconditional love I receive from you both can really turn my mood around and make a depressing day into a great day, making our bond even that much stronger.
If anyone actually decided to read all of this very long bio, don't be afraid to spark up a conversation about something I've mentioned here, especially if you want to know more about any of the topics, because obviously I couldn't add in every little detail. But I like talking about them. That's why I made it. I want to be as transparent as I possibly can with the viewers and supporters of my stream, and I feel like this is a good step.
Thank you very much for your time. Enjoy the stream :)
