2 Many Quizzes, 2 Little Time 2: Electric Boogaloo

Please take note of the fact that I wrote the first post in this series on 29.Jun. I totally set these last 2 posts up so that I could "electric-boogify" the title on this one, but David beat me to the punch yesterday. I decided that I don't care how derivative and unoriginal it now seems, it's not my fault that David used his mind-reading powers for evil instead of good. I'm still going to do it, if for no other reason than to satisfy myself. Now, on to the quiz!

Most people got this quiz from Jeffy's blog. I, however, went back to the source and snatched it off of Alyson's blog.

Random Questions That Have Nothing To Do With Anything

DO YOU SNORE?
No, but I go into coma mode. My pulse rate drops really low (I'm told into the low-40s, which is really only a step above death.), and my breathing becomes so long, slow, heavy, and loud that it's only slightly less annoying than actual snoring. But hey, I guess that's why I always sleep so well.

ARE YOU A LOVER OR A FIGHTER?
Can't help but being both, I'm a Scorpio.

WHAT'S YOUR WORST FEAR?
To be completely honest, I'm not actually AFRAID of anything. I do have irrational aversions to feet and Republicans. (Maybe my aversion to Republicans isn't so irrational, though.)

AS A KID, WERE YOU A LEGO MANIAC?
I suppose I was. Being the youngest of 4 kids, I guess I was pretty spoiled, and I've always been one to keep up with the latest trends, so I had pretty much every kind of toy that every little boy could want. Surprisingly enough, as gay as I am, I was never much for playing with dolls, though I did have a Cabbage Patch Kid.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF "REALITY" TV?
I hate it, but I'm hooked. It's not "reality," I'm aware of that, but my inner-voyeur is satisfied by watching all these shows. And I do watch ALL of them.

DO YOU CHEW ON YOUR STRAWS?
No. But I do straw-tricks for other people's enjoyment at restaurants.

WERE YOU A CUTE BABY?
I guess so. I'm not one to toot my own horn. Why don't you tell me?

IS THE SINGLE LIFE FOR YOU?
It never was. Others may call me codependent, but personally I just prefer to have someone to share my life and experiences with.

WHAT COLOR IS YOUR KEYBOARD?
That is a very random question. I didn't realize that there were more than one or two options for this question, but my keyboard is white, the one I'm currently typing on is black.

DO YOU SING IN THE SHOWER?
All the time, unless I'm showering early in the morning and people are trying to sleep. I=loud.

HAVE YOU EVER BUNGEE JUMPED?
No!!! But I've always wanted to...

ANY SECRET TALENTS?
Hmm...I'm EXTREMELY limber, so go with that wherever your mind takes you...
also I guess not everybody knows that I used to be a figure skater and I was in the Circus.

WHAT'S YOUR IDEAL VACATION SPOT?
I've been to a lot of really great places, and I like different places for different reasons...but if I were to close my eyes and dream of where I'd like to go, it would probably be any tropical locale that has a lot of history and culture to explore and a lot of great beaches to relax on.

IS JAY LENO FUNNY?
At times, but he's no Conan.

CAN YOU SWIM?
Yes ma'am! I was a junior lifeguard when I was a kid, and I taught lessons a couple of times. Basically, as a child, if I wasn't on ice, skating, I was in a pool somewhere.

HAVE YOU SEEN THE MOVIE "DONNIE DARKO"?
No, but I've heard some good things about it, so I sense a Blockbuster visit in my near future.

DO YOU GIVE A DARN ABOUT THE OZONE LAYER?
I do, especially after that nasty case of sun poisoning that I got in high school.

HOW MANY LICKS DOES IT TAKE TO GET TO THE CENTER OF A TOOSTIE POP?
178. That's not a joke, it's true. What can I say? I'm a nerd and that's the kind of thing I would do in my free time as a youth. Hey, some kids TP'd houses, I conducted scientific experiments.

CAN YOU SING THE ALPHABET BACKWARDS?
Yes. And I can also recite the letters backwards in less than 5 seconds...again, I know...I'm a nerd, whatever...

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN ON AN AIRPLANE?
Well, if I said no, then people would wonder what I was doing for 5 years when I was a "flight attendant." So, in an attempt to prevent a breach of national security, I will say yes.

ARE YOU AN ONLY CHILD?
No, I'm the youngest of 4 kids.

DO YOU PREFER ELECTRIC OR MANUAL PENCIL SHARPENERS?
I almost never use pencils, but when I do, it would definitely be electric. I'm that lazy.

WHAT'S YOUR STAND ON HUNTING?
I'm a vegetarian. That's like asking the pope about abortion. Please don't get me started.

IS MARRIAGE IN YOUR FUTURE?
Legally, probably not. Ceremoniously, yes...soon.

WHAT ARE YOU ALLERGIC TO?
Republicans and other such stupid people.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAID, "I LOVE YOU!"
With an exclamation point? I don't know that I ever have, but as a matter of declarative statement, I said it to Steven about 20 minutes ago when we got off the phone.

IS TUPAC STILL ALIVE?
Ummm...no, and who cares?

DO YOU CRY AT WEDDINGS?
No. I'm dead on the inside. No emotions. Call me Chandler.

HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR EGGS?
I love eggs. I like them any way. I don't think I've met an egg I didn't like.

ARE BLONDES DUMB?
I love this answer, too: "No. Stupid people are dumb." But what I will say is, "Stupid people SHOULD be dumb...as in mute!"

WHERE DOES THE OTHER SOCK END UP?
Dot found her other glove hanging out in the ghetto with the other socks.

WHAT TIME IS IT?
1130 hrs

IS MCDONALD'S DISGUSTING?
Yes. But only because they don't cater to us vegetarians the way Burger King does. If I want a Big Mac without meat, don't charge me for the whole Big Mac, you bastards!

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WERE IN A CAR?
Umm...I drive a truck

IS SANTA CLAUS REAL?
Are you retarded?

DO YOU LIKE TO HAVE YOUR NECK KISSED?
Mmmmm...yeah.

ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE DARK?
No.

WHAT ARE YOU ADDICTED TO?
Chocolate

CAN YOU CRACK YOUR NECK?
Yes, and I have to frequently to alleviate pain.

HAVE YOU EVER RIDDEN IN AN AMBULANCE?
Surprisingly enough, no. If you know me at all, you know that I am prone to be in the most serious of accidents, and always walk away from them.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BRUSHED YOUR TEETH TODAY?
Once. One or two more times later.

IS DRUG FREE THE WAY TO BE?
YES!!! I'm one of those crazy I-won't-even-take-Tylenol-or-aspirin-because-I-don't-believe-in-altering-my-state-of-mind kind of people. My resolve and willpower are challenged every time I get into another accident, but I don't cave.

ARE YOU A HEAVY SLEEPER?
TOTALLY!!! Anytime, anywhere, anyplace I can SLEEP!

HOW LOUD DO YOU SNEEZE?
I used to sneeze so loud that I could feel things tearing in my throat. I've been working on fixing that. It's bad for the voice of a singer.

DO YOU LIKE YOUR LIFE?
For the most part. Things haven't quite been heading in the direction I was planning lately, but I'll fix that...

WHO'S BETTER: STONE COLD OR THE ROCK?
I have to say The Rock. He's a good actor, and I go to school with his cousin, and she'll hurt me if I don't say that.

ARE YOU PSYCHIC?
Everybody is at least a little bit. You'd be surprised at the potential of the human mind. People don't give their brains enough credit.

HAVE YOU READ "CATCHER IN THE RYE"?
Umm...maybe, in high school, but I've REALLY done my best at blocking out those years, so I don't remember.

CAN YOU SKATE?
I would hope so, otherwise claiming to have been a figure skater and a rollerskater in the circus would just be sad and pathetic.

HAVE YOU EVER STOLEN MONEY?
No, I've only stolen food when I was really poor. (It's all so sad and Les Miserables, but it's true!)

DO YOU LIKE CAMPING?
Camping is fun! But I'm not one of those no-frills campers. I need the electricity and the showers and the air mattresses.

DO YOU SNORT WHEN YOU LAUGH?
Nope...I think people that snort when they laugh are just making it up for attention.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAGIC?
In some sense of the word, yes.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN DIVORCE?
Yes, even though I was raised in a strict Catholic family, I managed to rid myself of that ignorance at an early age.

CAN YOU DO THE MOONWALK?
Yes, but who cares? My favorite old school dancing party trick to do is the worm. It gets a much better reaction out of people.

DO YOU MAKE A LOT OF MISTAKES?
I'd like to say no, so no.

IS IT COLD OUTSIDE TODAY?
It's Florida in July, what do you think? Actually, you show me anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere that's cold in July, and I will NEVER go there.

WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE?
I'm about to eat cereal and French-toast-flavored toast.

DO YOU WEAR NAIL POLISH?
Sometimes black on my toes, otherwise only on Halloween.

WHAT'S THE MOST ANNOYING TV COMMERCIAL?
Thanks to DVR, I can skip all the commercials except for the longer version of the Megan Mullally M&Ms commercial. That's my favorite commercial on TV right now.


People...please, PLEASE, try to shorten the number of questions in the quizzes. This was WAY too long, but fun...I love ya Alyson, even though I don't know you.

Since my comment will show up as left by 'Anonymous' and I'm not a 'Blogger', I guess I should introduce myself as Steven, TM has mentioned me in his previous blogs. I have to admit that TM has a great sense of humor and is the funniest person I know. I know you would agree with me Baby ;-). I was sitting in the crew lounge reading your answers to the quiz and I busted out laughing. I had to apologize to the girl sitting at the computer next to me. But the answer I like the most was 'marriage' question......
I love you!!

1. I don't make 'em, I just repeat 'em when bored. And I actually did ditch a few stupid or redundant questions.

2. I find you infinitely interesting. Figure skating, really? Now I feel the need to go to the Garden Cafe and ice skating...in no particular order. Then we could...what talent do I have...we could go bowling...I used to be really good at that. Seriously. I worked in a bowling alley, there wasn't much to do but practice. I averaged over 200. I own my own shoes and ball. Okay, this just got a little embarassing. (And I probably suck now - haven't gone in about four years.)
