A little soon for another post, but I don't care. Here's 50 random questions.
Got it from

mas90 1. Elaborate on your default icon.
It pretty much sums up Lost. You can kinda see what you're looking at but it's all a bit hazy. It also has a Blair Witch type feel to it.
2. What's your current relationship status?
Percolating. Has Bobby Brown found his Whitney Houston? Time will tell.
3. Ever have a near-death experience?
I almost drowned in a swimming pool. Throwing a kid into the deep end is not the best way to teach him how to tread water, and might put him off swimming for the rest of his life. Not traumatic AT ALL.
4. Name an obvious quality you have.
An uncontrollable razor sharp tongue.
5. What's the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now?
Third Eye Blind classic "Semi-Charmed Life." Possibly the best song ever.
6. Any celeb you would marry?
Scarlett Johansson I think is the hottest woman in Hollywood, but no, she doesn't believe in monogamy. She definitely looks like the kind of girl who will cheat on you repeatedly and I've been there, done that. Evi? Hell no, I'm sure Dom gave her STDs modern science hasn't even identified yet. Despite not being in my top 5 (not even 20 for that matter), it would have to be Jennifer Love Hewitt. She has a warm disposition, is plump enough such that she'd make a great bean bag chair for me to crash on, has big boobs for breastfeeding and wide hips for birthing lots of babies. Oh yeah, I'm gonna make one lucky lady very happy one day. LOL. Oh yeah, and plus she talks to ghosts, which is always useful.
7. Who will cut and paste this first?
I don't know anyone on LJ, so no one. I'm not even sure anyone will read this.
8. Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?
I was once told that I have Jackie Chan's nose. But my Mom thinks all asian people look the same. Racist.
9. Do you wear a watch? What kind?
My last watch was a Mickey Mouse watch which I lost in a rotating restaurant in China when I was a kid. There was like a half an inch gap between the wall and the floor at the round edge of the restaurant and I dropped it that strange crevice. Devastated, I never wore a watch again, except on formal occasions. Mickey, I hope people have dropped enough chow mein down there for you to have survived all this time.
10. Do you have anything pierced?
I have tiny metal objects inserted into my body against my will all the time - why would I voluntarily do so?
11. Do you have any tattoos?
No. I hate all tattoos that don't have a heart, an arrow through it, and the word "MOM" printed over it. As far as I'm concerned, that's the only acceptable one. And only if you've been in prison and your nickname is "Tiny."
12. Do you like pain?
I like good pain... like working-out pain, sex pain, and long-anticipated and long-overdue bowel/bladder evacuation pain.
13. Do you like to shop?
I hate shopping! When I need something I have to go to so many freakin' stores and there's never anything good and I always end up spending way too much time and settling on something I'm not crazy about.
14. What was the last thing you paid for with cash?
Sushi with... a friend. Tipped 20% too. I always like to have cash on me at all times.
15. What was the last thing you paid for with your credit card?
Ordered a couple of computer processors off Buy.com. Backordered for so long, I ended up cancelling. Bastards... it said they were in stock. DIE, BUY.COM, DIE and go to hell and then DIE again.
16. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone?
Sadly it was the CSR of my Satellite TV provider. I called to complain about a rate increase and got this retarded CSR lady with a thick Eastern European accent who couldn't understand half of what I was saying without me repeating myself. IMMIGRANTS!
17. What is on your desktop background?
An old one of a forest/valley/night/stars scene merged with a pic of Evi with wet hair. I'm not particularly fond of it, just like a dark background. Because I'm dark, and damaged and tragic. And horny.
18. What is the background on your cell phone?
One of the stock images: a blue background with a bunch of bubbles like it's underwater. It's funny, I'm such a frakkin' nerd/geek but I don't even have a data cable for my phone. I need to get a new one anyway.
19. Do you like redheads?
What a weird question. Person who created this must be a redhead. Redhead - not my first choice, nothing personal. Love it as a fake hair colour though.
20. Do you know any twins?
Used to. Pretty fem twin boys. Still are AFAIK.
21. Do you have any weird relatives?
Actually they're all quite normal. I guess that makes ME the weird one. It's like poker... if you sit down at the table and you can't tell who the sucker is simply by looking, it's you.
22. What was the last movie you watched?
"The Holiday." Better than expected (though that's not saying much). Kate Winslet has a hairy yet hot thing going.
23. What was the last book you read?
I can't even remember. Whatever the last book I read for my last English class was. Do audio books count? I just got through Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons."
24. Is there such a thing as love at first sight, or it is more likely to be "lust at first sight"?
I don't think so... love at first sight... you can't tell a person's personality from how they look, so that pretty much precludes that, unless you believe in fate, which if you do, you're a sucker.
25. What's your favorite novel?
Pride and Prejudice. Keep in mind when you're as poorly read as I am, "favorite" novel is a subjective thing... I've never even read any novel twice.
26. When was the last time you visited the street where you first lived?
Not since I left (too young to remember). Saskatchewan is a cold, faraway place.
27. Do you read your horoscope?
If I happen to come across it. I never take it seriously though.
28. Who's your favorite of the seven dwarves?
Doc I think? He's the one who pretends to be a doctor and gives Snow White daily physicals, right?
29. When was the last time you googled your own name?
I don't have to. I have others do it for me. Apparently I'm a guitarist who played with Hendrix. Rock on, Jimmy. Rock on.
30. What was your favorite subject at school?
History. I love history. All the war and death and mayhem. Battle of Britain! Best. Battle. Ever. Not technically a battle, but whatever.
31. What was your least favorite subject at school?
Math. Despite my father being a Math teacher back in China, both myself and my brother are horrible at any form of advanced Math. I got like 25% on my first University Calculus test.
32. Do you like having your photograph taken?
No. I don't photograph well. And when I try to smile it always comes out awkward and horrible. I look decent in maybe 1 in 100 photographs.
33. What time were you born?
5:00AM, CST.
34. Ever seriously questioned your sanity?
What's there to question?
35. How many phone numbers do you have remembered and can say off the top of your head?
Quite a few. If I've dialed it more than 10 times, it's in my head.
36. Can you Limbo?
I once placed 2nd place in a Limbo competition. Back when I was very limber. Those were the days...
37. Have you ever killed your own dinner?
Yes. Fish, and when I visited China, I slit a chicken's throat and drained it's blood. It was super cool. Especially for an 11 year old. Not traumatic AT ALL.
38. How long have you been living at your current residence?
Is 23 years long? Hmmm.
39. What phobias do you have?
What everyone else is afraid of... nothing.
40. What's your ideal breakfast?
Well, the ideal breakfast wouldn't take place until my harem and I would wake up at around 2pm, which would technically make it lunch, which means pretty much any food is game. But of the standard breakfast foods, Belgium waffles and pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream, bacon, sausage, honey ham, scrambled free-range eggs, hashbrowns, ketchup, and iced tea.
41. Where are you right now?
At home on my kick ass PC! w000t. I might treat/torture myself by watching SNL tonight.
42. What book or movie title best summarizes your personality?
Donnie Darko. Or American Beauty. Or Harold and Kumar. They're basically the same movie.
43. If you could suddenly get the skill to play any single musical instrument, which would you choose? Drums. C'mon, drums are awesome. And yeah, drummers are never front-row center, but I don't mind being in the background drumming up a kickass beat so that my bandmates can get laid. I'll watch from the couch under a quilt.
44. Why do you blog?
Mainly boredom. The fact I'm actually doing this meme is testiment to that.
45. Do you have any prejudices you're willing to acknowledge?
Immigrants who don't bother to learn the language. Yes, that includes a lot of my own race - like my uncle by marriage who despite being in the country for twenty-five years, cannot speak a lick of English outside of "yes," "no," and "call my lawyer." Give me a fucking break. You shame us all.
46. What would you call your autobiography?
Good question. I'm completely stumped. No one's ever done that before.
47. What's the longest time you've stayed out of the country/where?
I think it was 40 days in Hong Kong/China. The worst bit was a layover in Taipei on the way home where I was pursued through the terminal by a Taiwanese pedophile. Not traumatic AT ALL.
48. Do you use ICQ, AOL Buddy list etc..?
I'm using Trillian for AIM and ICQ, and to a lesser extent, YIM and MSN. Thinking of trying Miranda though.
49. Do you have nightmares frequently?
Not as much as I used to. For a good three to four month period awhile back I would constantly have nightmares about being chased or fighting for my life. I'd always wake up tired and sweaty (and not the good kind). It was awful. Unless when I was asleep I was actually awake as my altar ego and fighting crime across the city at night.
50. If you were another person, would you be friends with you?
Of course, I'm awesome. I tipped 20%! (see above)
