The Honey Pot

Mushroom About

The key facts not enough for you eh? No problem, let's talk about Honey.

The Man

avatar of me
  • I've never broken a bone. Not even sure I have any.
  • I can clap with one hand.
  • I met Zezima in RuneScape once.
  • I won a dance competition at my cousin's birthday party by repeatedly standing up and sitting down.
  • My favourite colour is purple.
  • My online name "Honey" comes from "Honey on Toast", which comes from an old Minecraft server I used to play on where a friend was "Jam" and I was "Toast". I switched to "Honey on Toast", and a lot of people shortened that to "Honey". Several people told me how uncomfortable it was calling another man "Honey" and asked if there was anything else they could call me. I said no, because I found it hilarious.

Video Games

I like computer games. Have for a very long time. First console was the original PlayStation, then I graduated to the PlayStation 2, then the Xbox 360, and then PC gaming. These days I play on PC, PS5 or Switch. My favourite games/series are:

  • Fable (Especially The Lost Chapters)
  • Grand Theft Auto (3, VC, SA, IV, and V)
  • Tony Hawk's (Underground, American Wasteland, 1+2)
  • Arma II & III (Including the Day-Z mod)
  • World of Warcraft
  • Guild Wars (1 & 2)

And many more I cannot think of right now. As you can see from the last two on the list I enjoy MMOs, from RuneScape through to Guild Wars, then WoW and Guild Wars 2, I've probably spent the past 20-odd years playing one MMO or another. My all-time MMO favourite is probably Guild Wars 2, I might have played WoW longer but it has changed a lot from the earlier years. I joined late Burning Crusade and played through Wrath of the Lich King into Cataclysm, and these days it's unrecognisable. Guild Wars 2 has evolved too, sure, but I think it managed to retain what made it great much better.

Trading Cards

I like Pokemon too, and have been collecting a lot of cards from the most recent Scarlet & Violet TCG sets including Paldea Evolved, Obsidian Flames, 151, a little of Paradox Rift, and Paldean Fates. My favourite is 151, and I hope to get the complete set soon!

While we're on the subject, here are a few of my favourite cards that I got from the Pokemon Booster Pack:

TV Shows

Here are my top ten favourite TV shows in no particular order:

  • Red Dwarf
  • Peep Show
  • Futurama
  • Scrubs
  • The Inbetweeners
  • Malcolm in the Middle
  • Bottom
  • Bob's Burgers
  • Only Fools and Horses
  • Parks and Recreation

As you can see it's largely a mixture of cult classic British comedy with some American comedy sprinkled in. These are shows that I could sit down and watch for all eternity. Some other shows which I think are excellent but not quite on the favourites list are:

  • Fargo
  • The Vicar of Dibley
  • The IT Crowd
  • Aggretsuko
