What man? Which man? Who's the man? When's a man a man? What makes a man a man? Am I a man? Yes. Technically, I am.

I'm procrastinating right now, and the ladies on The Collective filled out a survey this week. Seeing as I enjoy filling out surveys, and seeing as they're excellent time wasters that don't at all feel like a waste of time until they're over, I thought I'd go ahead and fill it out, too. Here it is.

1. ONE OF YOUR SCARS, HOW DID YOU GET IT?

I have several scars on my fingers that resulted from toy customizing accidents.

2. WHAT DO YOU WANT MORE THAN ANYTHING RIGHT NOW?

To be finished with my work. And to not have a cold anymore.

3. DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME YOU WERE BORN?

I think I was born around 1:00 AM, but I could be way off. I feel like I missed being born on Valentine's Day by that much.

4. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE TOY AS A CHILD?



5. THE BEST TV SHOW EVER CREATED:

Sports Night. Hands down.

6. THE LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO?

I talked to Jennie while she was stuck in traffic on her way home from work. Talking to her is often the only human contact that I have during the day.

7. DO YOU GET SCARED IN THE DARK?

Nope.

8. THE LAST PERSON TO MAKE YOU CRY?

It was probably myself for some reason. I couldn't tell you for sure, though.

9. HOW MANY WISDOM TEETH DO YOU HAVE?

All of them.

10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE COLOGNE / PERFUME?

I don't have a favorite. Right now my favorite smell is Vick's Vaporub. Mmmmm.

11. WHAT KIND OF HAIR/EYE COLOR DO YOU LIKE ON THE OPPOSITE SEX?

No preference.

12. WOULD YOU RATHER BE SMART OR FUNNY?

You can be smart without being funny, but you can't be funny without being smart, so I would rather be funny, because if I'm funny then the chances are good that I'm also smart.

13. COFFEE OR ENERGY DRINKS?

Coffee. But not regular coffee. I like froufy coffee with lots of sugar and chocolate and whipped cream and stuff. Judge me if you must.

14. IF YOU COULD EAT ANYTHING RIGHT NOW, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

You remember the cookies that they used to have at Wendy's? They were big cookies and they were really delicious. I would eat one of those.

15. WHO IS THE LAST PERSON YOU MADE MAD?

I have no idea. Probably Jennie, though she is hesitant to tell me when she's mad at me.

16. DO YOU SPEAK ANOTHER LANGUAGE?

Jawohl.

17. DO YOU LIKE SOMEONE?

*blushes* yeah....

18. WOULD YOU FALL IN LOVE KNOWING THAT THE PERSON IS LEAVING?

No. Funny story, though: I once fell in love knowing that I was leaving. Okay, not really funny so much as awful.

19. WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO TELL SOMEONE HOW MUCH THEY MEAN TO YOU?

Hugs.

20. WHAT ANNOYS YOU MOST?

Bad drivers.

21. HAVE YOU BEEN OUT OF THE U.S.?

Yes.

22. YOUR WEAKNESSES?

Kryptonite. Canada. Vintage toys.

23. IF YOU COULD GET PLASTIC SURGERY WHAT WOULD IT BE?

I would not have this done. I prefer nature the way it is.

24. WHY DID YOU FILL OUT THIS SURVEY?

The Collective tells me what to think.

25. ARE YOU TOO SHY TO ASK SOMEONE OUT?

I used to be, but I'm not anymore, though I sort of hope that I'll never have to ask anyone out again.

26. WHAT DO YOU GET COMPLIMENTED ABOUT MOST?

My height, which is great, since I work so hard at being tall! Seriously, people. I know I'm a giant. Get over it.

27. WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF ALCOHOL BECAME ILLEGAL?

Continue living my life as if nothing had changed.

28. HOW MANY KIDS DO YOU WANT?

None right now, thank you.

29. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?

My first name is my dad's middle name. I don't know who he was named after.

30. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY?

My eyes regularly water if the Sun is in my eyes for any sort of period of time. So probably the last time I looked in the direction of the Sun.

31. ANY BAD HABITS?

I'm a collector. I will go on little sprees where I try to buy up as many of one type of thing as possible (usually it's toys, but sometimes it's comics).

32. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON, WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?

I would like to think so.

33. DO YOU KNOW ANYONE FAMOUS?

A few people, yes, of varying degrees of celebrity.

34. DO LOOKS MATTER?

Everything matters. It really just depends on how much each thing matters.

35. HOW DO YOU RELEASE YOUR ANGER?

I rant sarcastically.

36. DO YOU TRUST OTHERS EASILY?

I simultaneously trust and distrust people immediately. There's a window of a few hours where that happens and then I subconsciously make my decision one way or the other.

37. FAVORITE THOUGHT PROVOKING SONG:

"Think About It" by Flight of the Conchords.

38. FAVORITE DAY OF THE YEAR?

Tomorrow.

39. FAVORITE EXPRESSION?

"Make it work," as said by a robot of Tim Gunn.

  1. 14 - Wow. I'm glad I'm not the only one who loved those! The Wendy's by my apt. in BG used to get pissed when I'd go there because they never had any out (I think I was the only one who ever bought any) and so they'd have to get them out of the freezer. Even frozen they were fantastic :-)

    38 - Best. Answer. Ever.

  2. "Make it work make it work make it work."

    That's stuck in my head now. I hope that your cold goes away, too.

  4. 5 -- YES! But since you've stolen my answer, I don't have to do this now. So... thank you.

  5. It seems like every time I comment on something you wrote, I comment about Sports Night, but it can't be helped, because, as you've stated, it is the best TV show ever.

    Also? The Collective is really good at telling me what to think and introducing me to cool people.
