1. If you're on my friends list, I want to know 35 things about you. I don't care if we never talk, or if we already know everything about each other. Short and sweet is fine
( Read more... )
For whatever value of "serious" I'm capable of, I suppose so.
02) What was your dream growing up?
I had a recurring one about a theme park where there were dinosaur footprints instead of tour guides, and a different one where those two-dimensional grids depicting the spacetime continuum were having giant rocks dropped on them, and it was only through force of will that I kept the boulders from getting too huge and knocking against one another and making a terrible noise.
Hey, it's not my fault the question is ambiguously worded....
03) What talent do you wish you had?
Picking winning lottery numbers.
04) If I bought you a drink what would it be?
Staple Remover
05) Favorite vegetable?
Cauliflower. Is garlic a vegetable?
06) What was the last book you read?
"Emily the Strange: Who is Emily?"
07) What zodiac sign are you?
Leo. Shocking, I'm sure.
08) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where.
See icon.
09) Worst Habit?
I let the dishes build up to unreasonable, potentially evolutionarily-viable levels, before washing them.
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride?
"It's the car, right? Chicks dig the car." - Robin (Batman & Robin)
11) What is your favorite sport?
Football. American football, not the "I have been lightly touched by another competitor in passing and must now act as if I've taken a large-caliber round from close range" variant.
12) Do you have a Pessimistic or Optimistic attitude?
As soon as I have a reason for optimism, I'll consider it.
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
Every single thing I say here is going to get me slapped by *somebody*.
14) Worst thing to ever happen to you?
I've made some poor decisions, and I'm leaving it at that.
15) Tell me one weird fact about you.
I share a birthday with my GF's brother and best friend.
16) Do you have any pets?
Joint custody of four cats.
17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly?
I'd hope you weren't allergic to cats.
18) What was your first impression of me?
"Captain, I'm detecting non-trivial levels of snark and cynicism."
"Very well, lay in an intercept course."
19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
I don't think of clowns at all.
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
I'd either want my hair back, or to be about three or four inches taller. Or to magically achieve and maintain 6% bodyfat.
21) Would you be my crime partner or my conscience?
There's nothing to say one can't be both. "Okay, if we're going to do this, we're going to do it right... and not get caught."
22) What color eyes do you have?
White, with brown.
23) Ever been arrested?
No comment.

Very little, these days, but I did like those 16oz glass bottles when we were younger.
25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it?
Pay off two credit cards, buy a new couch, go out to a nice dinner. Maybe some other boring small stuff.
26) What's your favorite place to hang out at?
A place where they don't end sentences in prepositions. :-p
Failing that, it's all about the company, less so the location.
27) Do you believe in ghosts?
Not particularly.
28) Favorite thing to do in your spare time?
Depends on motivation and energy levels: work out, read, video games, surf porn, nap....
29) Do you swear a lot?
You must be new.
30) Biggest pet peeve?
Religion.
31) In one word, how would you describe yourself?
Rafetastic!
32) Do you believe/appreciate romance?
Sometimes.
33) Favourite and least favourite food?
Faves are a fairly long list, including crawfish, steak, broccoli, seasoned popcorn...
Least? Beets. I fucking LOATHE beets.
34) Do you believe in God?
No. Anything further I say on the subject will be very impolite.
35) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?
It is perfectly grammatically acceptable to end sentences with prepositions. The rule regarding prepositions is a hold-over from Latin grammar. In Latin, you literally couldn't end a sentence in a preposition. In English, this is not only not the case, but at times the most practical way to say something is with a preposition at the end.
That said, this entire meme has some iffy phrasing, but more or less passes the test of holding my interest for long enough to fill it out.
