newnumber669 question quiz. It sounds worse than it is.
1. Are you currently grounded?
Yes, sadly I am currently unable to fly. One day, though!
2. Do you snore?
I never hear myself snoring, ergo I must not snore.
3. Are you a lover or a fighter?
Well, I'm certainly not a fighter, although I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say I'm a lover. I'm just an -er.
4. What's your worst fear?
Answering this question. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!
Generally public speaking, any kind of situation where I have to make speech-sounds without actually responding to someone else's.
5. As a kid were you a lego maniac?
No. I had a few, and in fact I still have a bunch under my bed in the category of 'things I'll probably never use again but I still don't throw away and, in fact, bring with me when I move'
6. What do you think of reality TV?
It has its place. That place is in the summer. Really, it's a perfect arrangement - normal TV during the regular season, and reality TV in the summer when everything else is in reruns. It's only when reality TV started creeping into the regular fall season schedule that it got so obnoxious.
That said, I like a couple shows, usually either ones which have a really novel premise, or ones where I can easily imagine myself in the situation.
I've given up on Survivor - they've just stuck to the formula too long. I know they've made a couple minor changes this year, but still, on the whole, it's pretty much completely a numbers game, especially after the tribe merge - if your alliance is larger than the other alliance, then you can vote the person you want out of the house.
7. Do you chew on your straws?
No.
8. Were you a cute baby?
Yes. No, I don't know what happened.
9. Is the single life for you?
It seems likely.
10. What colour is your keyboard?
Greyish?
11. Is Barbie sexy?
Well, she's made of plastic and lacking anatomical correctness, so I'm going to say no.
12. Do you sing in the shower?
No. I sometimes write in the shower though. Not physically write, that is, because that would be odd, but, you know, compose, in my head.
13. Have you ever bunjee jumped?
No, but I'd like to. Or skydive. Especially skydive.
14. Any special talents?
Not really. I'm pretty humdrum.
15. What's your ideal vacation spot?
Another world.
16. Is Jay Leno funny?
Not really. I mean, I occasionally watch for the 'Funny Headlines' segment, but that's just reading off someone else's mistakes and doesn't require much funniness. He's too jokey, though. Letterman's just funny even when he's not doing jokes. Though I don't watch him too much either, usually either I'm going to bed or watching the Colbert Report.
17. Can you swim?
Theoretically. I haven't tried in a while. But I assume I can.
18. Have you ever seen the movie Donnie Darko?
Yeah. It had some interesting bits, but I think it needed to be edited to be a bit clearer what was going on - I'm fine for movies that are a little obscure, but when you have to read the writer's comments just to figure out the plot of the movie, that's a little much.
19. Do you give a damn about the ozone?
As a segment of a larger problem, yeah. I mean, I'm not running around saying, OMG THE OZONE! WE MUST FIX THE OZONE! WE NEED MORE OZONE!, but I care about the environment, of which the ozone is a part.
20. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?
I'm not even sure I've ever had a tootsie pop. I'm informed from commercials, that, at least for owls, it takes three.
21. Can you spell the alphabet backwards?
Yep. T-E-B-A-H-P-L-A E-H-T. Check it. I even did it while closing my eyes.
22. Have you ever been on an airplane?
Yeah, but not in at least 10 years.
23. Are you an only child?
No, I have an older brother, and some stepsiblings. But I was already like 17 by the time I even met them so it's not really the same thing.
24. Do you prefer manual or electric pencil sharpeners?
I use my teeth. It's the manly way. Also, I don't use pencils much. Mostly because of splinters.
25. What's your stand on hunting?
My theory is simple. If you're doing it for food, or personal safety (if there's a wild, possibly ninja, deer breaking into homes and killing children in the middle of the night and you need to take it down), okay. If you're doing it for sport, I don't like that at all. Now, I'd say this goes for INTENTIONS as well - even if you happen to eat every bit of the animal, if the only reason you're doing it is because you find it fun, I don't care for that attitude... but I'm less displeased than someone who just does it so they can mount a head on the wall.
Well, I do have one amendment to that - If you're hunting an animal bigger than you and you're doing it barehanded with no weapons, you get a pass on the 'just doing it for fun' restriction. At least that's a fair fight.
26. Is marriage in your future?
I doubt it.
27. Do you like your hand writing?
It could be neater. Well, no, it can't be neater. I've tried. But I wish mine was neater.
28. What are you allergic to?
Not sure if there is anything significant anymore. Bullets.
29. When was the last time you said "I love you"?
Sunday I think I said it to my grandmother as we left her place for lunch/coffee.
30. Is Tupac still alive?
Who?
31. Do you cry at weddings?
No.
32. Are blondes dumb?
Let me put it like this: I don't think being blonde actually has anything to do with your intelligence. However, I'm open to the possibility that, at least in our current culture, dumb people are more likely to make themselves blonde, or that some people who are blonde are treated differently, such that they don't try as hard as others and wind up not doing so well academically, and that because of those two factors, blondes are dumb to a slightly disproportionate degree. But there's still no reason to look at someone and assume something about their intelligence. Dumb comes in every color.
33. How do you like your eggs?
I'm generally a scrambled fan, especially when you have a lot of other good stuff in there. Once in a while I really like a hard boiled egg though, they're fun to eat.
34. Where does the other sock end up?
The truth is, it was never there to begin with. It was a delusion.
35. What time is it?
10:22 am.
36. Do you have a nickname?
Not really, aside from aliases. Some people call me 6, or occasionally 6ie, online, which isn't technically any of my aliases, but a shortened form. Likewise 'Hyp'.
37. Is McDonalds disgusting?
Yes, but in an oh-so-delicious way. Well, actually it's not all that great, but I enjoy it now and then. Mostly then.
38. Who's your hero?
I'm not sure I have one hero. I take my heroism in bits and pieces from lots of people and in lots of ways.
39. Are you in love?
I can't say that I am.
40. When was the last time you were in a car?
Sunday. Unless you count busses or subway cars as cars. In which case, Wednesday.
41. Do you prefer baths or showers?
Showers
42. Is santa claus real?
Of course he's real, he's locked up in![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
80sfiend's basement.
43. Are you afraid of the dark?
No. When I was a kid, sure, but now the dark is like a warm blanket. Except not always so warm.
44. What are you addicted to?
Not sure I'm actually addicted to anything at present.
45. Crunchy peanut butter or regular?
I go back and forth - I'll prefer one and then suddenly get sick of it and prefer the other one. Right now I prefer crunchy, although we only have smooth at the moment because we alternate in buying one
46. Can you crack your neck?
Probably.
47. Have you ever ridden in an ambulance?
Not consciously.
48. How many times have you brushed your teeth today?
Just once.
49. Is drug free the way to be?
Ideally, yeah. I mean, it's a personal choice, but I think it's a better one.
50. Are you a heavy sleeper?
I'm a medium sleeper.
51. What colour are your eyes?
Brown I think.
52. How loud do you sneeze?
... uhm, medium?
53. Do you like your life right now?
No
54. What's your best friend(s) name(s)?
I'm not going to answer this question.
55. Who's better stone cold or the rock?
I don't care about wrestling.
On the one hand, The Rock has made something of himself besides wrestling, by appearing in movies. Not _much_ of himself, but something.
On the other hand, Stone Cold has stuck to wrestling and thus is comfortably in a place I never have to see him or think about him unless someone bizarrely brings up him as part of a quiz question.
So it's a toss up.
56. Are you pyschic?
No. I wish. Then I would Rule The World.
57. Have you ever read catcher in the rye?
Yeah, I read it once in school. It was okay, not my type of book though.
58. Do you play any instruments?
No.
59. Can you skate board?
If skate board is some new fangled slang for 'hang out on the internet', then yes, I can.
60. Have you ever stolen anything?
When I was little, yeah, little things. Felt bad about it.
61. Do you snort when you laugh?
No.
62. Do you like camping?
I haven't done it in something like 15 years. I recall it being okay, but not great. If I had a computer and internet access I'd probably enjoy it more.
63. Are dogs man's best friend?
No.
64. Do you believe in divorce?
I believe it exists. I believe the option should be there. I also believe too many people are too quick to use it rather than actually try and solve their problems.
65. What's on your mouse pad?
My mouse. Odd, I know.
66. Can you moonwalk?
When I get to the moon, we'll see.
67. Does size matter?
Presumably, for some things yes, for other things no.
68. What was the last thing you ate?
Sugar Crisp cereal. (Can't get enough of that sugar crisp... oh no, I actually did get enough of it)
69. What's the most annoying tv commercial?
There are so many to choose from. The Uncle Yaris ones. The one where celebrities sit in people's laps to demonstrate the power of the laptop.
Oh, and this new bizarre Virgin Mobile one where a woman gets a gift she doesn't like for christmas and her eyes start crossing and she starts hissing like a madwoman until a reindeer enters and gives her a phone. I appreciate them for trying to be bizarre, but the woman creeps me out and annoys me.
Speaking of creeping me out and annoying me - ANYTHING WITH CREEPY PUPPET MEN. THIS MEANS YOU, NUTRAGRAIN BARS. MAKING THEM EUROPEAN ONLY MAKES IT WORSE.
1. Are you currently grounded?
Yes, sadly I am currently unable to fly. One day, though!
2. Do you snore?
I never hear myself snoring, ergo I must not snore.
3. Are you a lover or a fighter?
