Hey everybody, my name's Brett but you can call me Brett XD

I'm eighteen but that's not relevant, I prefer to consider myself as still just a kid rather than a mature adult. Otherwise I'd be draining all the fun out of everything!

I have an infatuance with things that don't exist, and that includes POKEMON PEOPLE! DO NOT DISS!! :evil: of course, I'm ultimately obsessed with Sonic the Hedgehog :3

Boy, I wish these fingers could be bothered to type more about myself but I don't wanna sound arrogant or anything lol ;)

It's nice to know that I'm not the only one too...you should know what I mean by that.

Hello, and welcome to the Wrong Planet, Brett. I voted "Fantasy." I think that the real world sometimes really fades in comparison.

when im not here, being a lonesome loser, i take my personal shuttle, venture into space, and bang hot space-chicks after lasering their captors, and bravely taking some laser hits myself (luckily only to the shoulder. the shoulder never matters)

really, its true :(

Hey there, Brett. I'm a huge Sonic fan myself; aside from being a legendary classic it's one of the best and highest quality game series' overall. (Although it has been starting to go downhill in very recent years. :() Some of my favourites are Sonic 3 and Knuckles, Sonic Adventure 2 (both with perfect saves) and, of course, tearing it up as Sonic in SSB: Brawl.

I think that fantasy is, by definition, better than real life. That's the entire point of fantasy; to give us a glimpse into an exciting, idealized universe that could never actually come to be.

Howdy. I voted reality but if you'd asked me this question ten years ago I would have said fantasy. I think escapism has its place but you gotta pay the bills too.

I went for reality. Fantasy would involve too much effort having to make stuff up. Its hard enough figuring out what everything means to have to worry about making up new things too...
