Another meme, to kill off the last 20 mins of lunch.

1. Elaborate on your default icon.
Seriously cropped screencap of Brad Crawford, Oracle & all-round bad guy (with enormous charisma) from Weiss Kreuz. Plus lyrics from The Prophet's Song by Queen. It seemed appropriate :)

2. What's your current relationship status?
I have friends, and not in the Victorian euphemism way. I have the internet for fanfic, and my imagination.

3. Ever have a near-death experience?
Nope.

4. Name an obvious quality you have.
Opacity to low-frequency electromagnetic waves.

5. What's the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now?
Why'dya have to go and make things so complicated... and I can't remember the last time I heard it.

6. Name a celebrity you would marry.
Paul McCartney, for his money. At least I'm honest ;)

7. Who will copy and paste this first?
Someone with 20 minutes spare.

8. Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?
Yes. (That's what you get for asking closed questions.)

9. Do you wear a watch? What kind?
Yes. It's stainless steel with a blue face, analogue, without a second hand or date thingy, from Emporio Armani.

10. Do you have anything pierced?
Yes - 2 holes in each ear, since Holier Than Thou has been closed every time I've visited recently. My navel won't heal after being pierced (boo). I want 2 more holes per ear (1 pair this year, one next), then something else for my 35th birthday :)

11. Do you have any tattoos?
Not yet.

12. Do you like pain?
Depends on the sort & reason.

13. Do you like to shop?
Depends on what I'm shopping for, and with whom. I like having an aim, rather than meandering pointlessly.

14. What was the last thing you paid for with cash?
My (deep breath) triple shot, venti, extra hot, wet, skinny latte this morning from Starbucks.

15. What was the last thing you paid for with your credit card?
Can't remember; I'm slowly paying it off.

16. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone?
Dad last night (he *still* hasn't done Pop's IHT return).

17. What is on your desktop background?
A DB9 Volante (at work) and Farfarello from WK (at home).

18. What is the background on your cell phone?
Wiggly lines trying to be hifi-style sound waves.

19. What was the last movie you watched?
FILM. I'm English, so it's a FILM. Ronin. Very, very good car chase.

20. What was the last book you read?
Does manga count? Saiyuki, vol 3. If not, then an early (pre-Inspector Rebus) Ian Rankin book of Mum's; I wasn't impressed.

That's what you get for asking closed questions.

This attitude got me into trouble in school once. It was a fifth grade physics test with the question "Can you build a simple thermometer?" and I answered with "Yes." I did wonder for a while why there was half a page of space but didn't realise they also wanted to know how I would go about it. Naturally, this question was worth 75% of the points total and I got an E. I actually can't remember what the result of my parents' complaint was but I passed the year so it couldn't have been that bad.

*Grins*

I think the only reason I *didn't* get into trouble for something similar was because the teacher couldn't stop laughing. He'd asked whether there was another way to test something (I can't even remember what, now) and I replied, rather too loudly (instead of putting my hand up & making a proper suggestion) "Probably".

Well, he wouldn't have asked if the answer had been "no"...
