If you could talk to the leader of your country, what would you tell them?
I’d tell him that no-one who went to University at the same time as me (and after) appreciated him tripling our tuition fees, don’t make fox hunting legal again, and he will be in a whole lot of shit if he privatizes the NHS just don’t do it David DO NOT DO THAT.
Do you like root beer?
No, I do not like root beer. Or regular beer for that matter. Beer is icky.
What is the worst crime you’re willing to commit for the person you love the most?
Now, I thought about this probably too much and it’s weird - if said person asked me to steal something or hurt someone, I don’t think I would, but if it was a life/death situation then I like to think I’d pull a trigger to save them. I mean, obviously I can’t know for sure; we say we’d do something only to react completely differently at the time, right? Because how can we know how we’ll react in a situation we’ve never been in before? Sorry this is getting long and deep next question!
What helps you sleep at night?
Normally, dreaming up scenarios (yknow, like in writing) with my favourite actors as the characters in peril. Eventually, my thoughts just wander, and at some point fade away entirely, and I wake up going ‘what was I last thinking about?’. If that doesn’t work, mentally singing One Hundred Green Bottles usually does the trick. Thoughts go a’wandering around 75 Green Bottles, I’ve discovered.
You have one wish and you can’t wish for more wishes. What do you wish for?
No more hate...? Is that too big?
When you were a child, did you believe there was a monster under your bed or in the closet?
Bed, yes, though it was more like a puppet-mummy (of the Egyptian variety) that I’d seen on a TV show - I wouldn’t sleep lying on my side for years. There were also some dressing gowns on the back of my bedroom door that scared me.
Best way to eat potatoes?
The way my dad roasts them. No question. (Jamie Oliver style, fyi.) Though I do also like them fried, and chippy-style chips are a guilty pleasure!
If you had a one way ticket to any place in the world but could never return to where you are now, where would you go? Or would you stay?
Having pretty much just come back from this place, I’d be happy to go and live in Portland, Oregon. We stayed in a really cool neighbourhood, the weather wasn’t too dissimilar from here, and Portland has Powell’s Book Store. Win win win!
Pizza or pasta?
[Tea, what are you doing to me?!] Can I say both? I mean, I’ve come to realise that pasta makes up a rather big portion of my diet, and I’m fond of a good carbonara and my own bolognaise sauce, but then I also love a nice meaty pizza too (with BBQ sauce. Always), so I’m not sure I could really choose... :S
Do you enjoy bad puns?
Pun away. I will groan to the Heavens, but my inner wordsmith will be singing with joy.
What is your favourite drink?
Day to day? I love ice cream shakes, and hot chocolate - when done well - is great too (Bailey’s and hot chocolate... oh my days!). If we’re out on the town though, it’s gotta be a Captain Morgan’s Spiced Rum and Coke. Absolute fave!
Alrighty then - deckofdreams, buckygunsout, hawkeye1313, hyperrasperry, rushingrullett, saintnoname, riveracantha, mo-digence, the-killing-joke-1988, whoresrarelysink, frodofeels - should you accept this challenge, here be your questions:
You find yourself in your favourite fictional universe; who is the first person you seek out, and why?
Name five flavours of ice cream you think should exist.
If there was such thing as a Fruedian Trunk, and it was a box that held your deepest, darkest desires inside, what would be in the trunk if you were the one opening it?
If you had to be transformed into an animal for one hour, what animal would you prefer?
What song do you know all the lyrics to without exactly knowing why or how you know them?
You’re a contestant on Lip Sync Battle; what’s your tune?
Would you rather star alongside Fred Astaire in one of his films or be an extra who gets eaten in a Jurassic film?
What is the most brilliant/stupidest thing to come out of your country?
Your friend asks you to give them your top five tips for surviving Wonderland. What are those tips?
What was your favourite TV show when you were ten years old?
Anything significant about the number eleven?
Apologies for the randomness. Enjoy!
