Author has written 2 stories for Maximum Ride.

First Name: Folding
Last Name: Turtles
Middle Name: Mwa ha ha ha ha! No one will ever know!
Age: I am old enough to read "chapter" books and use a computer.
Place of Residence: Milky Way Galaxy

Fears: Bees, wasps, ostriches holding needles and equipped with propellers... anything that has stingers and flies

Favorite Songs: Home, by Philip Philips and Rondo Alla Turca, by Wolfgang A. Mozart

Favorite Books: There's too many to count. I pretty much like anything that isn't too insane and foolish. But just as a short list that I can come up with on the top of my head...
Maximum Ride series (Except for Nevermore. Ugghhh... Don't even get me started!)
Harry Potter series
The Book Thief
The Giver
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Journey to the Center of the World
Wondrous Strange trilogy
Tunnels series
Legend series
Alice in the Country of Hearts (It's actually a manga, but I like it. Peter White's rabbit form is so cute!)
Pandora Hearts (See above note, minus the whole rabbit form thing.)
Garfield (See above note; replace manga with comic strip.)

Favorite Foods: Macaroni and cheese, lobster, pears,
And, my ULTIMATE NEW favorite...
NUTELLA!!!

Favorite T.V. shows:
The Big Bang Theory
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (I tried to explain the story line to some of my friends, and their response was, "What - the - heck...?")

Likes: Reading, writing, looking up random facts, telling people the aforementioned random facts and seeing their reaction, folding turtles (heh heh), living in my own imaginary world, classical music, country music (Yes, I defy the culture!), and purple (Don’t even think about bring up JB.)

Dislikes: Snobby, idiotic people who think they’re geniuses, pop music, rap music (shudder), failure, arguments and fights, and that paperclip thing from Microsoft Word that pops up telling you that you have a grammar error (apparently, that paperclip has a name: Clippy.)


The Review Revolution…

Even if the fic has 10,002,464 reviews already...
Even if the fic is older than time itself...
Even if it was abandoned a loooooooooooooooooooooong time ago...
Even if the author turned out to be a total psychopath...
Even if the OC is a Sue and the spelling would make a dictionary cry...
I will review every fic I read. What goes around comes around, and more people will review my own fics.
I have joined Review Revolution.

(I'm pretty sure most of you can find it, since most of the people on this site are "words" people. If you can't, it means you're better with numbers. Oh, and the mistake is that there are two "the"s.)


The white man said, "Colored people are not allowed here." The black man turned around and stood up. He then said: "Listen Sir... when I was born, I was black; when I grew up, I was black; when I'm sick, I'm black; when I go out in the sun, I'm black; when I'm cold, I'll be black; and when I die, I'll be black. But you sir, when you were born you where pink; when you grew up you were white; when you're sick you're green; when you go out in the sun you turn red; when you're cold you turn blue; and when you die you'll turn purple. And you have the nerve to call me colored?" The black man sat back down and the white one walked away. If you hate racism post this on your profile.


I understand that Scissors can beat Paper, and I get how Rock can beat Scissors, but there's no way Paper can beat Rock. Is Paper supposed to magically wrap around Rock leaving it immobile? If so, why can't paper do this to scissors? Screw scissors, why can't paper do this to people? Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class? I'll tell you why, because paper can't beat anybody, a rock would tear that stuff up in two seconds. That's why when I play rock/ paper/ scissors, I always choose rock. Then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper I can punch them in the face with my ready-made fist and say, "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought paper would protect you"

If you have ever pushed on a door that said pull or vice versa, copy and paste this in your profile!

If you think being unique is cooler than being cool, copy and paste this to your profile.

Admitting you are weird means you are normal! Saying that you are normal is odd! If you admit that you are weird and like it, copy and paste this onto your profile!

If you haven't died yet, copy and paste this onto your profile!

If you read this in my profile, copy and paste this in your profile.

There's nothing wrong with arguing with yourself! It's when you argue with yourself and LOSE then it's weird! If you agree, copy and paste this and put it in your profile!

If you've ever wondered what you are like in another dimension, copy and paste this in your profile.

They say "Guns don't kill people, people kill people." Well, I think the guns help. If you stood there and yelled BANG, I don't think you'd kill too many people.

If you can't convince them, confuse them.

Boys get fangirls. Girls get stalkers.

Haters gonna hate, potatoes gonna potate.

I don't have enemies, just haters.

You say I'm not cool. But cool is another word for cold. If I'm not cold, I'm hot. I know I'm hot.

It's all fun and games until someone get hurt...then its hilarious.

You can't wait for inspiration; you have to go after it with a club

Live dangerous…Run with scissors.

I’m not sleeping. I’m just looking at the insides of my eyelids.

Sometimes I wonder "why is the Frisbee getting bigger?" Then it hits me. Literally!

It's all sh*ts and giggles until someone giggles and sh*ts.


Emmett's the strongest.
Rosalie's the hottest.
Edward's the fastest.
Bella's the clumsiest
Alice's the quirkiest.
But only Jasper can sit in a corner and STILL make everyone feel jealous.


Some say the world will end in Fire;
Some say in Ice.
From what I've tasted of desire,
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if I had to perish twice;
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction Ice is also great;
And will suffice.
Post this on your profile if you've had enough of the destructive hate in this world.


I put more things in the recycling bin than the trash.
I own more pens than I do shoes.
I go outside more often than I go to the store.
And everything I buy, I’ll actually use.


1. The average Earth temperature has climbed 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit around the world since 1880, much of this only recently.
2. The 20th century's last two decades were the hottest in 400 years and possibly the warmest for several millennia.
3. 11 of the past 12 years are among the dozen warmest since 1850.
4. Arctic ice is rapidly disappearing, and the region may have its first completely ice-free summer by 2040 or earlier.
5. Glaciers and mountain snows are rapidly melting. Montana's Glacier National Park now has only 27 glaciers. It used to have 150 in 1910.
6. There are 6 million new cars on the road every year.
7. 31 billion tons of carbon dioxide is being released into our atmosphere every day.
8. 150,000 people die every year because of the effects global warming has on the environment, including droughts, heat waves, and increased spread of diseases like malaria.
9. 279 species of plants and animals are already responding to the warming climate by migrating north to escape rising temperatures.
10. Coral reefs are highly sensitive to the smallest changes in water temperature. The world's coral reefs could be destroyed by 2050.
Do you want us all to smother and swelter?
If you do, keep on wasting energy and ignoring these facts.
If you don't, post this in your profile and do something about it!


Punctuation is very important to our everyday lives. For example:
"Let's eat Grandma!"
"Let's eat, Grandma!"
Just one little comma can make such a big difference!


If you...
By: Yours Truly, Folding Turtles

If you tell me I'm different,
I'll thank you very much.
If you try to bend me,
I'm not going to budge.

If you call me "weird, abnormal",
To try to get me to conform,
I'll still do what I do
Through and beyond your storm.

If you call me a “freak”,
I’ll say, “At least I’m unique.”
If you toss sand in my face,
I’ll turn the other cheek.

What value do your words have?
Brush them off the past.
Turn around, go forward,
And never look back.

If you prick me with needles,
I’ll thicken up my skin.
If you try to batter me down,
I’ll still keep up my chin.

If you push me through fire,
I’ll leap over your ire.
If you deluge me with water,
I’ll swim to the shore – higher.

If you try to stifle me,
I’ll turn to my words.
And if you attempt to take away those,
Well, I’ll let you try until you turn absurd.

See, your actions are futile.
They're nothing but transient glares.
So you can do whatever you want,
But I'll still be me, and I'll still be here.


The MR Pledge:
I promise to remember Max whenever I must lead.
I promise to remember Fang when I would rather not speak.
I promise to remember Iggy whenever something explodes.
I promise to remember Nudge when someone just keeps talking.
I promise to remember Gazzy when it just plain stinks.
I promise to remember Angel when someone manipulates.
I promise to remember Jeb when someone is a traitor.
I promise to remember Ari whenever life's not fair.
I promise to remember Lissa and Brigid when they are a player.
I promise to remember these,
Cross my heart,
Hope to sing,
And take a chainsaw to my wing.
