A: I've only cried to a couple movies as an adult, it really catches me off gaurd when I do, and it's only happened when I was alone. The final scene in Big Fish, the scene where they exit the building near the end of Children of Men, and during the credits of Pom Poko. Each time I was balling my eyes out, and kinda confused about it. The first time I saw the opening credits in Watchmen I came close, got all choked up, But I was in the theater with friends. If I watched it at home by myself for the first time, probably..

A: I never lie, unless circumstances change significantly to force what I have said to become false.
Q: If you could relive the last 15 years, having no control over your own actions, would you do it?

A: That would only be acceptable if I had no memories of it whatsoever. Otherwise either a will to fix my mistakes (there were plenty) or boredom would kill me way before the 15 years pass. But even then I wouldn't do it because having no control over myself goes exactly against some of the more fundamental settings in myself.

Q: Your biggest mistake in life?

A: not going to college immediately after high school. I feel as though I'm trapped inside a machine; since I started working, there's no escape and I'm too much of a weakling to commit to anything.

Q: where is your favorite place to drive/ride/walk?

Q: While I'm sure one of the rather costly Sushi dinners I've been to over the years are technically better quality, the most bang for the buck I've ever gotten was an 800 yen bowl of maguro over rice at the Tsukiji fish market. That Tuna was swimming in the ocean just a few hours before, and it was damn tastey!

A: How many controllers have you broken over the years out of frustration?

Q: When was the last time you screwed up (or almost screwed up) a task because of procrastination?

A: About a month ago actually. Didn't really screw up though, I was able to wing it in a frantic two hour hack job. ;)

Q: Will Obama be elected for another term?

I highly doubt it. There is hardly any Tuna left in the sea around Japan. Most tuna sold at Tsukuji is shipped in from the Mediterranean. It gets flash-frozen on the fishing boats right after they pull in the catch. This has to be done due to food safety reasons actually.

It was ages ago... and I can't be 100% sure it was maguro.

A: I work with this dude who is awesome, but terribly racist. Hates most asians, mexicans, etc, but really hates blacks. Can't tell if most of it is for show, though. Favorite quote when we were talking about Abraham Lincoln: "Damn Lincoln and his nigger-lovin' nonsense". He is ridiculous.

Q: What is the longest you have ever slept? I accidentally wasted my day off and slept 12 hours, and now I feel like garbage.

A: 26 hours, but in all fairness I hadn't slept for about a week. Needless to say, substances were involved. Probably like 12 years ago though.

Q: When you drive/walk over high bridges, do you ever feel the urge to jump? And not necessarily a 'suicide/end -it -all' mind set. Just the urge to jump off something high, not taking into account the whole gravity/death thing.

A: It's funny you should mention that, because I do feel the "urge", every time I'm next to something really high, I mean so high it would kill anyone falling down. It's always "What if..." or "Man just like that, it would f everything up...". It amazes me how quickly things can take a turn for the worse. On something very high and unfenced I always get that feeling. I never get that kind of thought when I'm in my car on a bridge though, only on foot. Sometimes I see people walking in Ireland or Scotland near cliffs and it really gives me the chills. What if...?

Q: What is the closest you have ever been to actually dying?

Edit: typo.

Answer: Liberal, because I live in Washington State, and my parents were, and Republicans say and do hypocritical things at alarming rates.

Q: Asian chicks: hot or not?
A: As with most women, It varies greatly. Some are hot, some not so much. I certainly don't think a chick is automatically hot because she is asian though.

Q: And since we are going there.....Black chicks: yay or nay?
