65 things you don't know about me by Parallax

Hullo all. Shamelessly stolen this from patches_namaki patches_namaki!!

  1. First thing you wash in the shower?
    My arms, and try to get as much water over my shoulders as I can. No idea why.

  2. What color is your favorite hoodie?
    I only have one hoodie, it's not a type of clothing I tend to wear. But mine is an ashy red Cthulhu one.

  3. Would you kiss the last person you kissed again?
    Oh god yes. I try to do that every time we see each other.

  4. Do you plan outfits?
    Nah. Throw things on and they tend to fit good anyway. But that's because I tend to buy boring, neutral clothes.

  5. How are you feeling RIGHT now?
    Sore. Owwie...

  6. What's the closest thing to you that's red?
    Uhh, a little red dress. Don't ask. It's not mine.

  7. Tell me about the last dream you remember having?
    I think it involved playing some kind of game, I suspect it was a board game because I was confused about the game pieces, they seemed to move in and out of three and more dimensions...

  8. Did you meet anybody new today?
    Two landlords. One seemed nice. The other seemed like an axe murderer.

  9. What are you craving right now?
    A warm footbath with fizzy salts, and another mini kiev for dinner. Think I'll have the latter now. Mmm.

  10. Do you floss?
    Wire rubbing against my gums feels nasty, so no.

  11. What comes to mind when I say cabbage?
    Yeeurgh.

  12. Are you emotional?
    Not too much, but when I am they're a bit too strong.

  13. Have you ever counted to 1,000?
    With my tendency to get distracted by things? You must be joki-oh look, a butterfly!

  14. Do you bite into your ice cream or just lick it?
    Lick it, but I tend to lick pieces of it into my mouth. So I may as well bite it. But I prefer to lick it.

  15. Do you like your hair?
    I've come to realise that I suit my hair better short. So yes, I do.

  16. Do you like yourself?
    Eh, I'm alright I suppose. Not great, not awful.

  17. Would you go out to eat with George W. Bush?
    Depends, is he allowed to speak? Actually, no. I think he's the type that would order something really expensive and then expect me to pay.

  18. What are you listening to right now?
    My computer. It is going whirrrrr.

  19. Are your parents strict?
    My grandparents were, but not my parents. But because I lived with my grandparents for the most past, I suppose you could say that the answer is a yes.

  20. Would you go sky diving?
    Sure, as long as I'm entirely reassured that it's quite quite safe.

  21. Do you like cottage cheese?
    Not in the slightest.

  22. Have you ever met a celebrity?
    I've run into Leonard Nimoy, met Neil Gaiman several times, and entirely failed to recognise Colin Baker when he was standing right next to me.

  23. Do you rent movies often?
    Who has 'rented' movies in the last five years?

  24. Is there anything sparkly in the room you're in?
    No, there is nothing sparkly in my dark and creepy vampire cave of dark creepiness.

  25. How many countries have you visited?
    Two, three if you count England.

  26. Have you made a prank phone call?
    Yes, and it wasn't as much as I thought it'd be.

  27. Ever been on a train?
    I'm British, of course I have. I remember being on the trains long before they were ludicrously expensive and perpetually late, too!

  28. Brown or white eggs?
    If I crack an egg open and the white bits are brown, I'm throwing the rest of the eggs out. And setting fire to the frying pan I broke it into, just to be safe.

  29. Do you have a cell-phone?
    Technically, if by cell-phone you mean 'small lump of electronics that sits on my desk and does nothing because I don't charge it or use it'

  30. Do you use chap stick?
    Only when I'm eating chinese... oh wait, chap stick? Nope. I'm a big manly man with a leather harness and a hairy penis, feh to your girly chap sticks!

  31. Do you own a gun?
    In the UK there are laws about gun ownership, and if I qualified to own one, I wouldn't want someone like me to have one.

  32. Can you use chop sticks?
    Why do I have a feeling of deja vu?

  33. Who are you going to be with tonight?
    It's a work night tonight, so nobody. I used to stay over at my partner's on Sunday nights, but saying goodbye in the mornings became too hard for me.

  34. Are you too forgiving?
    It seriously depends.

  35. Ever been in love?
    Yes and still am.

  36. What is your best friend(s) doing tomorrow (or the next soonest week day)?
    Off to view a new flat, I believe.

  37. Ever have cream puffs?
    Is that the giant thing that was the incarnation of Gozer?

  38. Last time you cried?
    Earlier today, but I had a rough day yesterday. It's all cool though, no worries.

  39. What was the last question you asked?
    "Shall I show you how?" to a girl behind the checkout at the supermarket who was confused how to process my electricity payment.

  40. Favorite time of the year?
    Summer, I like the heat.

  41. Do you have any tattoos?
    Yes, one sleeve.

  42. Are you sarcastic?
    Sometimes, but I tend to be more sardonic.

  43. Have you ever seen The Butterfly Effect?
    Yes, originally with the different ending.

  44. Ever walked into a wall?
    A few times, when distracted.

  45. Favorite color?
    Green, preferably green lantern green.

  46. Have you ever slapped someone?
    Only when I'm really, really angry.

  47. Is your hair curly?
    More frissy than curly, but not when it's short.

  48. What was the last CD you bought?
    CDs? Oh god I don't know, we're talking almost a decade ago now...

  49. Do looks matter?
    I like a strong personality and kind heart more than looks, but a little self-respect does help.

  50. Could you ever forgive a cheater?
    It depends very much on how they did it and why.

  51. Is your phone bill sky high?
    No, I barely use a phone.

  52. Do you like your life right now?
    It's better now than it was six months ago, that's for damn sure.

  53. Do you sleep with the TV on?
    Actually, I've got into the habit of going to sleep with episodes of MST3K playing on my PC. No idea how that happened...

  54. Can you handle the truth?
    This isn't going to be about Jesus, is it?

  55. Do you have good vision?
    I have good long range vision. My up-close vision is not so great, though.

  56. Do you hate or dislike more than 3 people?
    I've learned that hating people doesn't achieve anything. I prefer to just avoid anyone who rubs me the wrong way.

  57. How often do you talk on the phone?
    Every week day, I'm an operations controller. Everything I do is done over phones.

  58. The last person you held hands with?
    Oliver. He's mine.

  59. What are you wearing?
    A towel and a bathrobe. That's it.

60.What is your favorite animal?
Rats.

  1. Where was your favorite picture taken at?
    Locally, I think the sunset at the beach.

  2. Can you hula hoop?
    Of course I can, I was born in the 80s.

  3. Do you have a job?
    Yeah, operations control. I phone people and make sure that the jobs that need doing are being done and, if they're not, do what I can to make sure that they are done.

  4. What was the most recent thing you bought?
    Lunch.

  5. Have you ever crawled through a window?
    More like I've stumbled through one, once. But I couldn't use the door due to it being, well, unsafe to do so. Looong story.

And if you've sat through all of these and want to do this too, here ya go, use it. Wheee.
