Interview with Stretchysumo

Posted by Asandir - February 17th, 2014


Asandir's interviews with Newgrounds forum users

This week's interview features the user Stretchysumo.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

When did you find Newgrounds and why did you join? Why did you choose the username Stretchysumo?

Stretchysumo:

"I discovered Newgrounds in 04 - 05 because knox was hosting his claymations here. I don't remember exactly why I joined, but the rest is history. I chose the username because I was trying to find a usable name for Runescape without numbers in it that wasn't taken. I guess I just stuck with it."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

Do you think that you changed over the time you were here, as user, or also in real life?

Stretchysumo:

"Oh definitely. I was like 11 when I joined, so I was an obnoxious ignorant shithead online and IRL. Now I actually put some thought into my posts, but I do still shitpost for shits n giggles."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

Are there any other users that you like, and how do they affect you?

Stretchysumo:

"Entice is a pretty cool guy. So is Yert, but he doesn't post much anymore. I also like gandhi because people STILL get angry at his posts. I don't think users here have really affected me."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

Are there any users that you would consider enemies or that you just don't like?

Stretchysumo:

"Enemies? No. Xenomit is an elitist douche, but I kinda like the shit he stirs up."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

What is your opinion about the forums? Is there one forum that you prefer? And is there another forum user that you want to see getting interviewed by me?

Stretchysumo:

"The BBS is long past its prime, but I like the tight-knit community we have. I also browse 4chan's /v/ and various boards on 420chan. I can't really think of anyone I'd like to see interviewed."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

I guess that you have an opinion about the moderators of Newgrounds. Do you think that they do a great job or not?

Stretchysumo:

"Eh I used to, but the mods don't do much anymore it seems. I don't really have an opinion on current mods. I liked Canas, Poozy was great just because he was such a dick, but nobody brought the tears like bigbadron."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

Would you like to become a moderator on Newgrounds? If so, what kind of moderator?

Stretchysumo:

"I'd be fine with it, but it's not like my life goal. If I was any mod, it'd have to be a forum mod, I don't explore the rest of NG too often anymore."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

You were a member before the redesign 2007. Tell me how you experienced Newgrounds back then and what changes you liked about the redesign.

Stretchysumo:

"Back before the redesign, NG had WAY more activity. It's a shadow of what it was then."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

The last redesign happened 2012. Tell me what you think about it. What do you like and what is not so good?

Stretchysumo:

"Fuck that redesign. I still hate it. I mostly use NG on my phone, and the redesign ruined mobile functionality. I couldn't see my pictures I was posting, text would constantly not be recognized (before html5 support my quotation marks would come out as a string of text after posting), the new levels are shit, I can't post blogs from my phone, and I just don't like the look.

Back in 2009 you submitted some songs to the audio portal. Did you work on more audio stuff since then and do you plan to submit more to the audio portal in the future?

Stretchysumo:

"I was just fucking around in Garageband. I'll probably never make music again cause I don't really enjoy music anymore. Everything just sounds like noise now."

Banjo Tooie is your favourite video game of all time. Tell my readers what you like about this game.

Stretchysumo:

"I don't know if it's really my favorite. If I posted that I was just thinking of one of my favorites. I'd be hard pressed to pick just one. A few of my favorites would be BK/BT, No One Lives Forever, Demon's Souls, and Rayman 2."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

You played both Dark Souls and Demon Souls. Which situations/scenes impressed you the most? Which bosses were the most challenging for you (heavy bets on Smough and Ornstein and Seath the Scaless)? Lastly, are you looking forward to Darksouls 2?

Stretchysumo:

"Demon's Souls was by far maneaters and False King Allant. FKA purely because of his soulsuck shit. Dark Souls NG Fat and Slim was the hardest, but Seath wasn't bad. NG+ 4kings is the fucking worst though. I'm looking forward to DS2. I liked the beta, but they got some serious issues to work on (mainly hitboxes)."

You are a member of The Stoner's Club. What was your fist experience with drugs? What was the best and most scary drug experience that you had?

Stretchysumo:

"Not counting being doped up on prescriptions most of my life, I first smoked weed the day I got out of eighth grade. I didn't get that high, but I loved it. Scariest would be overdosing on pure synthetic cannabinoids (unkown chems). I was having a seizure, conciously, screaming, heartrate over 200, and watching everything melt as electric sounds of death filled my ears. I had to bike home 15 minutes after that. Got anxiety issues ans derealization after. Best would be either shrooms or the first time I robotripped. I never took many shrooms, but 2.5g was just pure euphoria. First time robotripping this white trash kid dumped a bunch of bottles of syrup into a half empty 2 liter. I chugged a lot, idk how much dxm I had taken, but it was enough to make me leave my body. We went offroading in my friends jeep through a forest in the dead of night. I was living life in third person. Pretty crazy for my first hallucinogenic experience."

I know that you have atleast one dog and one guinea pig (both posts are from 2011). What pets do you have and how important are they to you?

Stretchysumo:

"The guinea pigs are dead. I used to have 3 rats years ago and 2 cats that I was too young to recall much about. I currently have 2 dogs. They're very important to me, moreso than most people."

Every person has secrets. Can you tell one of yours or something else that we didn't know about you yet?

Stretchysumo:

"Half the shit I say on this forum is stuff I'd never say to anyone IRL. For an interesting fact, though, I have a poster with Bam Margera's autograph and a bunch of other skaters. Used to spend most of my free time skating."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

What can we expect from you in the future, Stretchysumo?

Stretchysumo:

"I don't really know what I want to do with my life yet, so I have no idea where I'll be 5 years from now."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Comments

I liked this interview but gotta be honest a few of the questions i skimmed over, such as favorite video game, the animals. Everything else i enjoyed, personally i liked when you asked stretchysumo about other users on ng, i felt myself just waiting for him to bash others or.....not. If i had to choose someone for you to interview, I think you should interview gandhi. People love or hate supergandhi64 but i think an interview would be a chance to set the record straight.

I see. Well I can relate to having pets and I know a fair bit about Dark Souls, so I asked about that. I will keep in mind what you said and ask more/other things for the custom questions.

The thing with superghandi64 is, like you said, that he is super controversial. The comment section would be a sight but I wouldn't even know what to ask him. There is not much substance aside from posting in certain ways, to be honest.

For me, the interviews are always a way to get a glimpse at the person behind the username. With ghandi, that is not possible, thus I don't want to interview him. Sorry if that's a let down but that's just my honest input on the matter.

#freesupergandhi64

dont make me start a trend, interview the most interesting man on NG!

Well, now I am curious and I rather see the trend unfold :3

I cant start trends, i'm just a plain face in an otherwise colorful NG crowd

Hm.....

Superghandi64 needs an interview. Also, nice interview

Thanks! Wasn't there another guy who interviewed forum users.... TheDark?

Another good interview!

Thank you :)

I'm done. This guy is too fucking hilarious.
Nice questions.
Perfect answers.

Back in 2009 you submitted some songs to the audio portal. Did you work on more audio stuff since then and do you plan to submit more to the audio portal in the future?

Stretchysumo:

"I was just fucking around in Garageband. I'll probably never make music again cause I don't really enjoy music anymore. Everything just sounds like noise now."

This was my fav ^^^ :D

Thanks! Was indeed a bunch of amazing answers ^^

I'm gonna answer one of your previous responses. The Great-One (and the people he handpicks for The Interviewer) is the only other person besides you that interviews BBS users, but interviews now are posted very infrequently. Only 127 have been posted (some of which are repeats) and after Interview #200, which at this rate will be posted years from now, the whole project is set to end. Also, whether to post a gimmicky SG64 interview or not is entirely up to you. I have no opinion on the matter.

I see. One of the main differences between my interviews and TheInterviewer's is that I release them weekly. Granted, that would still be over a year for both of us to reach 200. I stand by my point that interviewing gimmicks is pointles; the user Maltos who asked for it made an short interview with superghandi64 and posted it on his userpage.
