Questions Meme!
Are you sick of my navel-gazing yet? A bunch of probing questions from
oz_the_bobble. Comment and I'll give you five of your own to answer!
1. Hetalia - which country do you find yourself most like? (Ignore the bad grammar behind the curtain...)
Well, according to that meme I did a while back I'm like, totally Poland, omigaw. Seriously, I identify with England quite a bit (especially his magnificent eyebrows)- not that I'm a drunken delinquent who sees fairies, just that I can be quite cranky and sarcastic and push people away from me unless I make the effort. Of course, my other answer is America. Because I'm awesome.
(incidentally, the 'seeing fairies' thing is my least favourite part of Hetalia canon. It just puts the stupid icing on the ridiculous cake. England is a drunken, belligerent jerkface dressed up as a gentleman- I cannot imagine him seeing fairies at all ever, especially while sober)
2. If you weren't doing our fabulous subject, which would you like to be doing?
If I wasn't doing English. Lit I think I'd like to do History or Politics. Yes, History even before I'd heard of Hetalia, even though it would add a delicious dimension to it, and Politics because I find it incredibly interesting. Or art, though my art probably isn't good enough to study formally- I quit formal drawing before even GCSE level, and boy does it show.
3. Out of all the Heroes characters, both alive and currently 'deceased' (yeah, I've been told about comics, I'm not believing), which do you think should have died first?
Um. I'm not sure? I find Claire inexpressably annoying, but her dying kind of defeats the point. I don't know. If Sylar or Adam died first (and for Adam, it'd be 'first' as in waaaaaaay back) then maybe a lot of the other characters would lead longer, happier lives, which I suppose is a good thing. Still, Sylar is one of the best things on the show. Let's kill Adam, then. He'd come back later anyway.
4. Aliens attack Cardiff - it's a believable scenario. Where do you go to fight them off? Do you fight them off? What do you do, come the invasion?
I think the obvious answer here is I'd hang around waiting for the Doctor so I can sneak onto the TARDIS and we'd travel together for ever and ever and...
*blink*
Sorry, I must have zoned out for a moment there. I imagine that Cardiff has fairly comprehensive invasion plans so I guess I'd do whatever the local branch of UNIT told me to. And then offer to join, because I bet I'd look snappy in a red beret. They must need SOMEONE to, I dunno, update their blog or Twitter or something.
5. What is your favourite film EVER?
Tricky! I'm going to go for the moral intellectual high ground and say Withnail & I, which I watched when I was probably a bit too young for it but loved nevertheless. It's everything I love in a film, witty and dark and utterly ridiculous, with extremely good writing that suffers a bit from being quoted to death by nerds like me. It is pretty much one of the best British films ever made, and I will fight anyone who says different. So there.
