2101. Are you an optimist? >> No. I don’t think I’m really any of the “-ists”, not in any consistent sense. 2102. If you were in the Breakfast Club, which character would you be? >> I don’t know enough about the Breakfast Club to have an answer for this. 2103. Who do you have no respect for? >> I don’t know. I haven’t encountered anyone that I can’t even muster the most bare-bones amount of respect for. Even if I don’t agree with them or think their behaviour is deplorable, I’m still going to do my best to treat them like a human being -- just a human being I don’t necessarily want to be around. 2104. Is the plural form of cactus cactuses or cacti? >> I’m under the impression that it’s “cactuses” but “cacti” is acceptable. Kind of like “octopuses” and “octopi” (although I am also under the impression that another acceptable plural of octopus is “octopodes”??) Is the plural form of penis penises or peni? >> I have never heard “peni” offered as a true plural for penis.

2105. What does your favorite coffee mug look like? >> It’s white on the outside, yellow on the inside, and it has a little cactus drawing on it. 2106. Have you ever gotten hurt at a concert? >> Mildly. I was a little banged up in the neck/head area after Taste of Chaos, because of crowdsurfers kicking me in the back of the head and landing on me while trying to dismount. Nothing any more intense than that, though. 2107. What age do you think it is most difficult to be? >> --- 2108. Do you like to be considered weird or different? >> I’m indifferent. I know I’m weird, I don’t need external confirmation on that front. 2109. Do you think you could handle a day in jail? >> I suppose I’d make it through somehow. But it would be very harrowing, and I certainly couldn’t push through for much more time than that without breaking down in some way. 2110. Is your body an amusement park? >> It isn’t. 2111. Are dj’s obsolete? >> My last encounter with a DJ was in January of this year, so I imagine they’re not obsolete. 2112. What is the best liquid in existence? >> I mean, water. All other earthly liquid (well, that I can think of...) is based on it in some fashion, anyway. 2113. What is turning out better than expected? >> I’m not sure. 2114. Who is the most overbearing person you know? >> I don’t think I know any especially overbearing people. 2115. Who does it surprise you that you are close to? >> Being close to anyone outside of Inworld would surprise me. 2116. Apparently Eminem got booed at the MTV music video awards because he was making fun of Moby onstage. What do you think of this? >> I don’t even remember this. 2117. Close your eyes. What do you see? >> Mostly blackness. 2118. What’s the best Van Halen song? >> I don’t know. I do like Running with the Devil, but mostly I just... don’t remember what songs they put out. 2119. What do you picture when you hear the word “Puritans?” >> Some vague eighteenth or nineteenth-century imagery of New England mostly cobbled together from movies. 2120. Have you ever been on a trampoline? >> I have, I used to love trampolines. I don’t have the same stamina for them now, but I’d still probably get one if we moved into a house with a backyard. 2121. What do you use batteries for the most often? >> The only things I’ve put batteries in lately are my toothbrush and... yeah, no, I think that’s it. My computer peripherals are wired, I haven’t had to replace the TV remote’s batteries yet, and every other electronic I have plugs in to be charged. 2122. What do you find thrilling? >> I’m not sure. 2123. Porch swing. Sunrise. What else could you ask for? >> A nice beverage, I guess, otherwise I agree -- that just sounds perfect. 2124. Do you like William Shatner’s cover of Mr Tambourine Man? >> I’ve never heard it. 2125. Where’s the sexiest place to have a piercing? >> --- 2126. Do you get panic attacks? >> Occasionally. 2127. How long does getting dressed to go to a club take you? >> --- 2128. What is Adam Ant’s best song? >> I don’t know his (their?) music. 2129. Does your body need improvement or is it just fine? >> I’m inclined to believe that it needs improvement, but I’d also just love to accept it the way it is while allowing room for improvement (in terms of health and fitness, I mean). That’s the hard part. 2130. Does watching MTV or reading beauty magazines make you feel bad about yourself? >> Those are not the things that make me feel bad about myself... 2132. What is the most romantic movie ever? >> The Shape of Water. 2133. Do you think that woman are treated as second class citizens of this world? >> What world? Every culture / nation has its own way of treating women. 2134. What would you do if you were at a dance club with your significant other and he or she got into a fistfight with someone? >> If Sparrow got into a fistfight with someone, I’d like to see that play out. She’s always talkin about fighting people anyway, lmao. There’s her chance. I, on the other hand, am disinterested in getting beaten up, so. (If it gets bad, I’ll just call the EMTs.) 2135. Has anyplace ever asked you to leave? >> Yeah. 2136. Have you ever been openly kicked out? >> As opposed to politely being asked to leave, you mean? Yeah, actually, this is a better descriptor of what happened. 2137. Are you permanently banned from anywhere? >> I don’t know if the bans were permanent, per se. I didn’t go back to find out. 2138. Who is your favorite movie director? >> Darren Aronofsky. 2139. What topic do you hate to talk about? >> I hate talking about music sometimes because it often turns into a “x genre/song/artist is better than y genre/song/artist” sort of thing. I don’t care about all that, I just like talking about music I enjoy and hearing what kinds of music other people enjoy (and maybe listening to that music to see if I also enjoy it, because common ground is nice to have). 2140. Are you looking forward to the remake of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory or do you think it could never be as good as the original? >> Oh, is this the one with Johnny Depp? I saw it, but considering I am unfamiliar with the original, I have no comparisons to make. It was... all right, I suppose. Like most JD movies. 2141. Do you enjoy the band Ministry? >> I think I’ve heard them a few times but they didn’t make a lasting impression or anything. 2142. What is your coziest article of clothing? >> I find my hoodies to be cozy. Also, pjs. 2143. What is your favorite word to say? >> I don’t know. 2144. Does your name and your significant other’s name feel like one word to you? >> No... 2145. Do you like the band the Buzzcocks? >> I’ve never listened to them. 2146. Can you tell when other people are lying? >> I don’t know, I don’t bother trying to guess. 2147. Do you like to wear glitter? >> No. 2148. Would you prefer to wrap your own presents or have them all gift-wrapped? >> --- 2149. Where do you go when you want to meet new people? >> I have no idea where one goes to meet new people. 2150. What is the best first sentence to a book, in your opinion? >> I don’t have an opinion about this.
