How do you feel about avocados?

You find a paper bag on a street corner. It contains hundred dollar bills and a note that says "Take only what you need." What do you do?

Has a movie ever made you well up?

Have you seen Shrek 2 and 3? How do you feel about the sequels?

If you had to write a book about someone (not you), who would you write a book about?

What comic book character are you most like?

I've had guacamole once, and avocado in my sushi a bunch of times. I like 'em okay I suppose!

Take the bag, take 5-6 bills, then leave the bag in a better part of town where the average person is less likely to blow it on crack or hookers.

Has a movie ever made you well up?
I'm certain some have before, but I'm drawing blanks right now... I'm not trying to be an Internet Tough Guy or anything, I just can't remember any off hand.

Have you seen Shrek 2 and 3? How do you feel about the sequels?
Haven't seen 'em, sorry. The first movie had it's moments and I enjoyed it overall, but Fiona ultimately being an ogre left me kinda... disappointed. Why was it necessary for her to be "ugly" as well in order to be in a relationship with Shrek? Seems like a wasted opportunity but then I feel that way about a ton of Disney flicks.

If you had to write a book about someone (not you), who would you write a book about?
I would write a book about Kris Straub, which would inevitably turn into a tragedy about Scott Kurtz.

What comic book character are you most like?
I'm somewhere between the Flash and Captain Marvel. :)
 
What do you want for Christmas?

Also please clarify your Captain Marvel statement as to which particular Captain Marvel you are referring.
 
I dunno what I want for Christmas! I could give a list of a shitload of TV season DVDs I want, and I need new headphones for my iPod, but that's just about it so far.

And I don't know a whole lot about comics or anything, but I'm referring to your basic Billy Batson smilin' Captain Marvel that was on JL:U.

I kind of have that do-gooder attitude that a naive innocent kid might have. Wanting so much to be like Superman and thinking that the world is black and white.

That and the Flash. :)

Now that you have attained modhood, what changes shall you be instating?

I gotta get used to receiving reports and using coloured text and NOT accidentally editing people's posts first.

And I'm not really thinking about changing anything just yet. I'm not in charge of the big picture, just helping handle the small stuff.

I'm kinda excited to see what this brings.

So... not bringing in tiny miniskirts for all, then?

I wanted to see Charlie in one... :(
 
How often do you dance to Surfin on Heroin by the Forgotten Rebels?
Never.

Name three things you want to do before you get old.

Name three things that you would NEVER do.
-Get married.
-Have a boy and a girl.
-Become internet-famous.

-Hard drugs.
-Assault/murder.
-Eat KD.

I'm all for that miniskirt suggestion.

If you could legally change your first and/or last name, would you?

If so, to what?
I would change my first name to Steven, but then I'd have the same full name as my brother, Espy, and LittleSin's husband. Kevin Miller is still pretty excellent, if a little generic.
 
Are you allergic to any foods?

Is there a vegetable that you absolutely can't stand?

Where do you go when you want some peace?
I'm allergic to cats, dogs, and horses, but no foods. Which is good cuz I like eatin'.

There are no vegetables that I absolutely can't stand, but I'm not a huge fan of cauliflower or peas. Does cilantro count as a vegetable? I don't like cilantro.

When I want some peace I go to a local coffeeshop with my iPod and either a book or a sketchpad. Either that, or on a LONG walk with my iPod. Like, long. For several hours.
 
Am I a tastemaker?
Of the highest order. You are a Taste Alchemist.

Is the coffee shop a Tim Hortons?
No, the Tim Horton's nearest to my house is actually widely-known as the shittiest Tim Horton's in the tri-city. It gets robbed a couple times every year, and a couple years back someone DIED there.

I walk about 20 minutes more and hit a William's.

Let me try this one again:

What have you done for me lately?
 
PC Gaming.

The current gen of consoles came up and I couldn't afford them, but I NEEDED a new computer. So I spent $1200CAD putting one together last May and immediately got Steam. I spent the next few months playing all the awesome games that had come out between 2005 and 2008 that my computer couldn't run.

I still kinda want a PS3 at some point but I really can't afford to buy it AND the the TV I'd need to make it worthwhile.
 
Have you ever ridden on a train?
I took a ride on a steam train during a tour of Colonial Remedios when I was in Cuba this past summer!

^^ Understandable answer, I don't play my Wii as much as I should but I rarely game these days as is.


Have you ever ridden on a subway/underground?
I do every time I'm in/around Toronto. :) It's kinda fun!
 
Out of all the islands in the Caribbean, why Cuba? Why not Bermuda, Bahamas, etc?
Mostly because my traveling companion wanted to go to Cuba specifically, but also because I heard that they love Canadians, are very polite, are relatively inexpensive (especially versus the two that you posited) and the tours are cool. :)

I have 3 albums worth of pictures on my Facebook account (linked in my signature).

With partner:
Candlelit dinner at home or restaurant?
At home. My girl loved when I made her chicken tikka masala and it was inexpensive and romantical.

She and I both love the romanticals. :) :heart:
