The man, the midth, the legend: Hawk Jefferson is our subject this week. Hopefully he still remembers that “midth” meme from forever ago. Anyway, Hawk is a very popular member of the FAN message board, and for that he can take a leap. What about me, what about Dave…n. His Twitter feed is very entertaining so go ahead and search the name above. It’ll be worth it. I don’t want to suck up but his interview is actually good. Go ahead and get offended anyone else I’ve interviewed. It’s not my fault Headbanger Mosh can’t be as good as Hawk Jefferson.
He is the host of the “Ruthless Aggression Podcast” that can be found here: http://ruthlesspodcast.podbean.com/ and I was going to say he writes for the FAN website but has one article on the site from back in December. Get on it buddy, we need you. Enjoy the interview everyone.
1.Would you rather share your room or car with someone?
If actually done both, with the same person actually, my roommate in college didn’t have a car and we had one small room so we shared stuff. I prefer the room though.
2.What would you name a band if you started it today?
Blood Fart…or Purple in Digital…my best friend and I have a ton of these terrible names worked out. I could never start a band because we’d have basically an endless series of names and no albums.
3.Name one physical attribute you would like to possess.
Does an Adamantium skeleton count? I want that.
4.If you could own any form of transportation, what would you choose? (If car, what kind)
I’m not really a car guy so I’d either go with the Batmobile that A. West and B. Ward rocked around in. Or the Vice City model of the Infernus from Grand Theft Auto.
5.Big cliche, but if you were stranded on an island what 3 things, 3 people, 1 album and 1 book would you bring?
Three things: A laptop, satellite connected wifi stick, and a solar panel.
Three people: My older brother (Eagle Jefferson), my best friend (Tuffles the Barbarian), and an attractive lady.
Album: Graduation – Kanye West, this is literally my favorite album. Ever.
Book: Fight Club – Chuck Palahnuik, one of the few books I actually revisit once a year.
6.Would you rather cover yourself from the neck down in tattoos or get one on your face?
One on the face, over the scar that I have in the middle of my forehead I’d get the Harry Potter lightning bolt tattooed. After that, I’d start wearing glasses, let my hair get shaggy, then I’d just randomly clutch at my scar in public like I’m in pain before brushing it off like the Dark Lord isn’t about to rise again.
7.What movie is your favorite in general and what is one you might not want to admit to people? (The internet is a good place for that)
Favorite: Pulp Fiction, I don’t care how cliched or overplayed it may be or the anti-Quentin Tarantino crusade that younger film fans are embarking on today. This movie not only perfectly highlights what some call the Tarantino Style in writing and direction, but provides the best performances that Uma Thurman or John Travolta have ever offered all while paying homage to the type of film that it was inspired by.
Guilty Pleasure: The Ladies Man, the one with Tim Meadows, not Jerry Lewis. It’s stupid, it’s raunchy, and someone literally eats a turd at one point but if you can’t laugh at Leon Phelps telling all of Chicago to, “grab your lover by the hand…and do it in the butt.” then I don’t want to know you.
8.What are the last 3 things you ate?
1. A Drumstick, the ice cream filled ones, not something I ripped from a turkey carcass.
2. A Reese’s Peanut Butter Egg
3. Frakenberry mixed with Boo Berry.
