Your most marked characteristic?

Honesty and dependability. And I've been told by many a fine lady that I have really beautiful, captivating blue eyes, and great hair and skin. And nicely shaped, big and soft hands - except for all those calluses on my finger tips.

The quality you most like in a man?

Someone who is not competing against me, unless it's like a video game or something. I geuss I just don't feel confident enough to believe a woman wouldn't ditch me for someone else based on money and looks, even though I have such enormous talent - or so I've been told.

I dunno, but I just hate it when I'm in a situation where I'm really into a girl but someone else also is. Geuss I just need to try harder, or fucking kick his ass.

The quality you most like in a woman?

Personality, especially intelligence, creativity, self-confidence, self-reliant yet not to a point where she won't let me take care of her. Honesty, someone who is just a really caring person. And definitely not someone who is too easy. I like a little bit of a challenge, not too much, but I like a girl that understands that in order to have a good solid romantic relationship you have to have a base of trust and a strong friendship - those things are key.

I'm never looking for a woman to just fuck for the night. Just not that kind of guy.

What do you most value in your friends?

Trust, and honesty even when it's not particularly kind.

What is your principle defect?

My lack of money and general unhealthiness - I geuss that could all be wrapped up by saying lack of motivation.

What is your favorite occupation?

Animation and pretty much anything that has to do with music, art, or film.

What is your dream of happiness?

Me and a girl, a nice big couch, a blanket, a blazing fire, some wine, and perhaps some good cheese and some fruit, but mostly me just holding her, kissing her, stroking her hair, perferably no socks, I like playing footsies, just rubbing my feet against hers, if she has clean well-kept feet that is. And no talking, we're silent, we're at total peace, a good movie or music is optional.

If you can just hold someone and cradle them and be close to them, it's such a simple thing but this sorta thing really says that this person really trusts me, that she's comfortable around me, that she likes me being close to her as much as I like holding her.

What to your mind would be the greatest of misfortunes?

Losing my left hand and/or losing my best friends.

What would you like to be?

Well I'm in college for arts and animation, my goal is to go as far as I can in that field, I would like to eventually work for a big name effects or animation house, ILM, Pixar or like Weta or something else along those lines. And maybe eventually get into writing and directing. Oh and I'm a musician as well, I play the guitar and bass, I sing a little. I'd like to go somewhere with that, even it's just as a local band, or just me playing in coffee shops and bars or in the art district here in town or something like that.

In what country would you like to live?

New Zealand or Australia, but I'm happy for the most part with the good ole' US of A.

What is your favorite color?

Blue, different tones of gray. Those are the colors I normally wear.

What is your favorite flower?

Dunno, havn't really thought about that. But I feel compelled to say any meat-eating flower.

What is your favorite bird?

Tyrannosaurus, technically not exactly a bird, but most scientists today (with a slight smidgen of common sense) have conceeded to the fact that sauropod dinosaurs and birds are part of the same family.

Who are your favorite prose writers?

As far as writers go, lately I've been into H.P. Lovecraft and Chuck Palahniuk stuff.

Who are your favorite poets?

I tend to judge poetry based on the poem instead of the poet - I dunno, I'm just not great with names I geuss, when it comes to poets.

Who are your favorite heroes of fiction?

Batman, Hellboy, Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Man with No Name, Indiana Jones, The Narrator....too many to really name them all

Who are your favorite composers?

I know it's kinda old and cliche already but I still gotta go with John Williams, oh and Howard Shore.

Who are your favorite painters?

Michael Hussar, HR Giger, Alex Ross - tons of others I should probably mention as well, but that would go on forever...

Who are your heroes in real life?

FDR, Doc Holliday, Patton, Gallileo, Divinci, Einstein

What is it you most dislike?

Sad, generally unhappy and depressed people, and taking a dump in public restrooms.

What natural gift would you most like to possess?

The ability to please her in every possible way - if at all possible, without changing myself.

How would you like to die?

Old age, or a quick and painless shot to the head in my sleep. I don't want it to hurt too bad however it happens. I actually almost died already when I was 2 years old. I had bronchitis and suffocated and turned blue, there was slight brain damage, I had to be potty trained again.

What is your present state of mind?

Mellow

To what faults do you feel most indulgent?

Sometimes I can be a little too crass and rude, mostly in a jokingly sort of way, but I do tend to offend people and not really care about it. Especially Right-Wing loons.

What is your favorite word?

Yes

What is your least favorite word?

No

What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?

A smart, intelligent woman, with real goals for her life, with real good tastes in music, art and food. A woman with confidence, who is comfortable with who she is and not worried about being some plastic beauty queen.

What turns you off?

fakes

What is your favorite curse word?

I tend to say shit alot, for some reason. Habit I geuss.

What sound or noise do you love?

The sound of rain.

What sound or noise do you hate?

The sound of someone gagging on something, or barfing. Makes me wanna hurl.

What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?

Professional toight sexy man meat, perhaps?

What profession would you not like to do?

Anything that requires real work, I.E. carpentry, waiting tables, taking out the garbage, etc.

If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

Um, you can go back home with all the interesting people, you clearly don't want to be here, you clearly enjoyed your life on earth, go enjoy it some more...or something...just get outta here, go back home. We're all cool here, but you just don't belong here, right now.

Live to make tomorrow a better day.

An ability to be friendly and personable to anyone. No, seriously.

A sense of humor. Looks and youth may fade, but an ability to make people laugh is a far more attractive trait.

What do you most value in your friends?
Loyalty.

What is your principle defect?
Oy, tough one. The easy answer here is my physical disability, but no, I've persevered despite that. I'll go with my stubbornness - that got me into trouble in my younger days.

To be in a larger city, working at a daily newspaper, with a wife by my side.

Arrogance.

What natural gift would you most like to possess?
Athletic ability. Coming from a family where everyone played at least one sport in high school from Grandpa on down, sitting on a bench keeping score was a bit of a letdown. But I'm not bitter about it. After all, people like me have been keeping EA Sports in business for years...

How would you like to die?
In my sleep.

As you might figure, mundane day-to-day life doesn't inspire me that much.

What is your favorite curse word?
Fuckstick. (Thanks, Nick.)

What sound or noise do you love?
A goal horn. Birds chirping.

What sound or noise do you hate?
There's no need to crank any kind of music obnoxiously loud (unless at a concert, where it's acceptable).

What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Detective work and forensics has always fascinated me. Blame it on a childhood combination of Encyclopedia Brown and Barry Allen. I'd also like to take a crack at film preservation as well, that requires a different sort of detective work.

What profession would you not like to do?
Garbageman. Even if my brother and I were to play the leads in Men at Work: The Next Generation, you could not get me to do that job.

If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
Well done, sir. Well done.

Never give up, never surrender. Original, it isn't, but it's kept me going forward on my job search when most of my friends would've bailed.

So the slang "pussy" or ancient English "cunt" you have to justify to yourself through rage but (and I'm being purposefully literal here) the homophobic or predetory (depending on the gender of the recipient) intimations of "cocksucker" or the incestuous slurring of "motherfucker" are firm favourites ?

As Charles intimates, some folk are wicked weird about language.
