I pilfered this off Loki. The Prosebox Loki. Not the Norse God of mischief. Although they could be both for all I know. Anyways, thanks to them for posting the quiz so that I can steal it.

whats your name spelt backwards? Mada.

What did you do last night? I actually went out with some work colleagues to a comedy club. This is part of my “trying to get out there and be more sociable” mission. It was good fun. The comedians were funny which is what you want out of a comedian. Think I might make a regular thing of it. Once a month sort of deal.

The last thing you downloaded onto your computer? Training material for upcoming… er… training.

Have you ever licked a 9 volt battery? Not that I recall, no. Oh, hang on, how much are the AA batteries? Oh, apparently 1.5 V. No, then.

Last time you swam in a pool? Couple of weeks ago.

What are you wearing? Grey woollen jumper; grey long sleeve t-shirt; Black jeans; striped socks; brown shoes; grey camp’ boxers; Lanyard.

How many cars have you owned? Just the one. Hoping to own this one for quite some time.

Type of music you dislike most? What’s that type they play at clubs which is just “doof doof doof”? That one.

Are you registered to vote? Yes, I exercise my right to vote.

Do you have cable? I’ve got loads of cables. Or is this that American TV thing? I think Virgin Media counts as cable. Yes, then.

What kind of computer do you use? I’ve got a HP laptop and a Macbook Pro. Plus an iPad.

Ever made a prank phone call? Yes. Well, sort of. When I was young I called 999 to see what it sounded like. I got scared when they answered and hung up but with a 999 call hanging up doesn’t close the line so when I picked up again they were still there. I had to explain myself and apologise.

You like anyone right now? Like or like-like? Time for a musical interlude from “Garfunkel and Oates”.

Riki: I've got too many questions in my mind Kate: I've got too many answers to find Riki: Can I give up all I've imagined? Kate: Am I imagical enough for this to happen?

Because I like you, I like you, I like you, I like you And like can lead to like like and like like can lead to love As sure as the stars above, I'd really like to kiss you (Kate: fuck you)

Kate: Can I be the man you're looking for? Riki: Can I really throw you outta my door? Kate: I'll try real hard not to lose her Riki: And I'll try to be less of a loser

Because I like you, I like you, I like you, I like you And like can lead to like like and like like can lead to love As sure as the stars above, I'd really like to kiss you (Riki: fuck you) Kiss you, (Kate: fuck you) Fuck you

To answer your question I’d have to go with a resounding “sort of”. I’m tailing off on some emotional residue left over from my relationship with Charlotte so there’s still some of that. There’s no-one new on the horizon yet, no. That’s ok though, more time for self improvement and I remain hopeful that I’m going to meet someone who thinks I’m the best thing since sliced bread. Also working on becoming the best thing since sliced bread.

Would you go bungee jumping or sky diving? Both. Not at the same time. That would hurt.

Furthest place you ever traveled? Germany. Or Sweden. Or Athens. Geography is not my strong suite.

What's your favorite comic strip? I like web comics. “Least I could” do is one of the best. Along with “Order of the Stick”.

Do you know all the words to the national anthem? I used to but I haven’t been a Boy Scout for a good long time now.

Shower, morning or night? Both and also after sex. My skin is delicate.

Best movie you've seen in the past month? The Lego Movie!!

Favorite pizza toppings? Seafood (except tuna or anchovies).

Chips or popcorn? Chips are, of course, called crisps here in the UK. What you call “fries” we call chips. So, Crisps or Popcorn? Depends. At the cinema it’s popcorn, nearly any other time it’s crisps. Though, frankly, I’d prefer a cheese cracker.

What cell phone provider do you have? O2.

Have you ever smoked peanut shells? Why the frak would I do that? Ah, apparently there was an urban legend you can get high off it. Amazing what people will try to get high off. No, no I haven’t.

Have you ever been in a beauty pageant? Bwahahahahahahahaaaa! Oh, I’m sorry, you’re serious; let me laugh even louder.

Orange Juice or apple? I like them both and don’t really have a preference.

Who were the last people you sat at lunch with? I had lunch with Jo Bath yesterday and haven’t had time for luck today. So, Jo then.

favourite chocolate bar? Boost Bars, I guess.

Who is your longest friend and how long? Leon Barrie. About 20 years now.

Last time you ate a homegrown tomato? Yesterday. I didn’t grow it, but I’m reliably informed it was home grown.

Have you ever won a trophy? Yes, for Warhammer at my local club back when I was 12. Since then? No. Not big on sports.

Favorite arcade game? Now we’re going back a way. Remember Sunset Riders? Thought not. Dan, Emma and I used to play it in the arcade as it was a 4 player side scrolling shoot-em-up. Many a happy 10 minutes wasted on that. Check it out if you can find a ROM. It was actually really good fun.

Ever ordered from an infomercial? Christ, no.

Sprite or 7-UP? If I had to choose? Sprite. Frankly neither, though.

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to school/work? Yes. I’m pretty sure EVERYONE in the UK had to wear a school uniform.

Last thing you bought at Walgreens? Nothing. I don’t know what Walgreens is. I’m assuming it’s an American company, probably big on exploitation. Hang on, I’ll check google. Hmmm, it’s a chemist chain similar to our “Boots”. Sounds about right then.

Ever thrown up in public? Yes but not due to alcohol. I normally do my throwing up in private.

Would you prefer being a millionaire or finding true love? Find true love; definitely. If she happened to be a millionaire that would be an added bonus.

Do you believe in love at first sight? No. Lust at first sight, yes. Love takes time and effort like all of the best stuff in life.

SPONGEBOB OR JIMMY NEUTRON? Neither please, I’ll watch some Invader Zim.

Did you have long hair as a young kid? Not as a young kid. Throughout my 20’s though.

What message is on your voicemail machine? Think it’s just the standard “You have reached the voicemail for <insert phone="" number="" here="">”. I may update some day but frankly anyone who needs to speak to me can just send me a text.

Where would you like to go right now? Are you asking me out, quiz? Right now I’d like to go to a wood cabin somewhere in the wilds of Scotland and lie on an enormous bed with the windows open and the smell of pine wafting on the air. Since that’s not going to happen I’m going to settle for a coffee.

Whats the name of your pet? I don’t have a pet of my own at the moment. Seriously considering getting a rat and teaching it tricks. If I do I shall call it “Mr Jingles”. This shall give me endless amusement.

What kind of back pack do you have, and what's in it? It’s a grey backpack designed for carrying laptops. I keep my laptop in it. Also my 3DS. And my meds. And some vitamin pills. Also aspirin. A wireless mouse; pens; chargers; cables; sweetener; pop; and occasionally a notebook for writing down poems.

What do you think about most? I’m a guy so stereotypically I should be saying “getting laid” hurr hurr hurr. Truthfully my thought process runs at such odd angles it’s almost impossible to say. People tell you should speak your mind but in my case that’s a terrible idea because the stuff I come out with is, without 30 minutes of contextual explanation, utter gibberish. I like the written medium because I can write about how I feel and then proof read it. Even if you try to explain this to people they can’t help but get upset and offended when you call them a cock-sucker even if you then spend along time explaining why that isn’t a completely bad thing. I once wrote an entry on free-flow writing where I just wrote down my thought process, completely unedited. I may do so again as it was a little interesting to read back. Whallop-bong crazy but interesting.

Ok, quiz done. Back to the grind. Ramblerambleramble.
