    15 years or so ago on some shitty G4 review show you mocked the timeless Sonic soundtrack classic “Escape from the City.” How do you feel about that song being more iconic and long-lasting than the sum total of your career’s work?

          That is fair. I have just learned that new users cannot send private messages for the first 24 hours of their account so I can’t even follow through with this bit properly. Pretend this is our DMs:

    So was it, “oof.”, “oof!”, or “oof?”

    Like, was it an “oof?” of unexpected surprise that the thing happened and it hurt? An “oof!” of shock? Or just an “oof.” of minor inconvenience?

        It sounds better if you change the instrument and add some ambient synth in the background https://youtu.be/9oByTUQjCFg?t=17

        Some suspect that it’s because the original “composer” didn’t tell them that horns are not the right instrument to hide the fact that he was lying about being deaf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-En6wZOsm4k

        But I figure a musical genius such as yourself would have been able to tell :very-smart:

Welcome to /c/AmA

Want a scheduled AMA announced ahead of time? Contact Awoo directly at the bottom of this sidebar.

Please stick to one of either three post types:

A standard Ask Me Anything post.

A request post – (What is the format and why should I make a request post?)

A gauging interest post – (What is this?)

What is an AmA?

AmA’s or “Ask Me Anything” began on the old internet, originally AOL chatrooms, later followed by Slashdot. They are crowdsourced interviews where the interviewee first makes a post describing who they are and what they do. Commenters then leave questions and can vote on other questions according to which they would like to see answered.

The interviewee can then go through and reply to the questions they find interesting, and easily see those questions the internet is dying to have the answer too. Questions will be a mixture of radical, serious and lighthearted resulting in the kind of interview you won’t get elsewhere.

What Topics Are Allowed?

Anyone can do an Ask Me Anything. The topic of the AmA must meet the rules below, and in some cases you must provide proof of the claims you are making. Ask Me Anything topics fall into two categories:

Something that plays a central role in your life. The prime example of this is a person’s job; posts about someone’s occupation are almost always allowed. A person’s topic should be something that they know thoroughly and is important to them; this gives them more to discuss and a more thorough background in the field.

A truly interesting and unique event. An example would be “I organised a protest against x.” It’s an activity that doesn’t play a central role in someone’s life but is so uncommon that many users would not have experiences of their own to relate to it.

AmAs should NOT be about:

Mutual-Aid and Crowd Funding - AmA submitters that include any aid or funding campaign must be eligible for an AmA without the campaign for it to be allowed. Additionally, the focus of the AmA must not be the campaign – those posts would be more appropriate in the mutual-aid community. Posts about suicide.

Other Restrictions:

Giveaways are not permitted on AmA. Contests and giveaways already running on a third party site prior to the AmA are acceptable

Proof

Proof in the case of public figures or orgs may be a social media post on an official account. For other topics it may be a proof image. This does not always have to be included in the post at the time of posting and it may be discussed with the moderators and provided privately. We will ALWAYS respect your complete privacy.
