1. How tall are you barefoot?
Generally I say 6'2", but I'm feeling pedantic today so it's 6'1.921". Although, a "nurse" had me down as 6'2.5" in a medical years ago.
2. Have you ever smoked heroin?
Once. Accidentally. Was in a certain club years ago chatting to a group of people when someone passed me what I thought was a regular spliff. It tasted odd and a bit nasty so I just passed it on. I didn't know what I'd actually just smoked until someone told me 5-10 minutes later. Oops!
3. Do you own a gun?
Fortunately for the world in general, no. Haven't even fired a gun in about 9 years. :(
4. Do you play with the ads on the side of the screen?
What ads? I don't do HP through Facefook so I don't get the ads down the side. However, when I'm using FB I rate every advert I see as either offensive of irrelevant.
5. Do you get nervous before "meeting the parents"?
Not sure why, but I always get a little tinge of nervousness meeting anyone's parents. Girlfriends parents? Never met any. I've always been kept well away from them. I wonder why? ;-)
6. What do you think of hot dogs?
The ones you can buy from that dodgy vendor guy in Corporation (when he bothers turning up) are a quid, not that great, slightly greasy, but fucking superb when it's 1.30am and you've consumed far more double vodka 'n red bulls than everyone else you went out with. Put together.
7. What's your favourite Christmas song?
I hate xmas and I especially hate xmas "music." Yep, I'm an old miser. Already have been for at least 10 years. Over the years several women have reliably informed me so. :D
8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning?
Mornings? Eurgh! You're making me dizzy. Stop it!
9. Can you do push ups?
Yep. Not sure how many though. I'd say at least 15 but I wouldn't put real money on that one.
10. Is your bathroom clean?
Sort of. Well, I try to keep it relatively clean. Especially the bath itself. We've had a few close calls in that damn thing when showering. It can get very slippery in there if not kept clean. :/
11. What's your favourite piece of jewellery?
Either my eyebrow spike or dog-tags and it's for personal reasons, not how they look on me or anything like that.
12. Do you like pain killers?
Nope. hate the bloody things. Spent a couple of years having to take fucking mountains of the blighters and they definitely buggered me up a bit.
13. What is your secret weapon to lure in the opposite sex?
Erm. I'm not a dickhead? Not that that seems to work much. :/ Ok, there's probably other stuff, but only an egotist would start listing what they think they are.
14. Do you own a knife?
Oh FFS. Just as I get used to the only 2 knives I used for cooking either being broken or vanishing into thin air and I finally stop fuming about it every time I want to chop something up, you go and ask me this stupid bloody question and I'm reminded about the whole thing yet again. Cheers. Pfft.
15. Do you have A.D.H.D?
Nope. But I do have plenty of other things wrong with me that have acronyms too.
16. Middle Name?
Michael.
18. What's your normal bed time?
Don't have one. If I could sleep regularly and predictably, trust me, I would.
19. Name 3 drinks you regularly drink?
Tea, gin, Lambrini. Cos I'm fookin' class. :D
20. What time did you wake up today?
About 11am.
21. Name one person that comes to mind right now?
That would be the other me - Beanie.
22. Current worry?
Which one? There's a list. :(
23. Current hate?
Having no money is high up on the list. It's getting in the way of some things right now that I won't mention for fear of jinxing myself. :/
24. Favourite place to be?
Sat right here. Actually, it probably isn't, but it is the place I'm the most comfortable.
25. Least favourite place to be?
Outdoors.
27. Do you own slippers?
Nope.
28. What shirt are you wearing?
A Wallace & Gromit t-shirt. the penguin wanted poster : "Have you seen this chicken?." :D
29. How many people have ever truly broken your heart?
One.
30. Favorite colour?
Orange or green. Usually orange more than green but it occasionally varies.
31. Would you be a pirate?
Nope. Can't stand the sea. I refuse to have anything to do with it whatsoever.
32. Last time you had an alcoholic drink?
About 24 hours ago.
33. What songs do you sing in the shower?
I never sing. Ever.
34. What did you fear was going to get you in the night as a child?
Anything.
35. What's in your pockets right now?
Nothing. The front pockets in these shorts aren't pockets. They're just holes. Great for quick and easy access though. ;-)
36. Is anyone on your mind right now?
Most certainly. In fact, there are 2.
37. Do you think you get enough exercise?
Nope. Starting to get more though. Jeez, I'm not used to getting any exercise these days. :(
38. Worst injury you've ever had?
That might be when the corner of my eye socket connected with the ground at high speed and the side of my head swelled up like you wouldn't believe and took a week to go down. Had to have stitches and I was concussed for 2 days. Cos I'm a lucky git the scar is barely visible and blends in very well so it's extremely hard to notice it.
39. If you could cheat on your spouse, would you?
What spouse? And, no. I would never do that to anyone.
40. Why?
Huh?
41. Who is your loudest friend?
I have a few friends who have almost no control over the volume of their voice and tend to get quite loud when excited.
42. Who is your most silent friend?
No idea. I used to be the quiet one but something broke and now half the drivel that I used to keep to myself gushes out all over the place. The other half stays where it should be. Count yourself lucky I've still got a modicum of control over it all.
43. Does someone have a crush on you?
I think so, yeah. There might even be more than one. :)
44. Do you wish on shooting stars?
Nope. Now I'm thinking about it, I don't remember seeing any shooting stars (they're meteors, actually *sniff*) in a few years now.
45. What is your favourite book?
Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy - the first 3 books.
46. What is your favourite candy?
Bleargh. Actually, eating chocolate does make me feel a bit ill these days. Doesn't take much to do it, either. Ah well.
47. What song do/did you want played at your wedding?
Wedding? Is there something you're not telling me?
48. What song do you want played at your funeral?
No idea. Not that it would matter to me at the time cos I'd be dead, wouldn't I? Funerals aren't for the deceased. They're for the mourners.
49. What is one of your favourite quotes?
I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs or insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for me.
- Hunter S. Thompson
50. What were you doing 12 AM last night?
Trying to crash and not doing very well. Took until gone 5am. :/
