Five questions

[thepeopleseason]

THE RULES:

1. Leave me a comment saying anything random, like your favourite lyric to your current favourite song. Or your favorite kind of sandwich. Something random. Whatever you like.
I'll respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
2. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
3. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post.
4. When others comment asking to be asked, you will ask them five questions.

From countessmary, my first set of questions...

1. If you had to describe your life with one song, what would it be?
   Just one? Two years ago, it would have been "Restless" by Rumbleseat, eight years ago it would have been "Al's War" by Less Than Jake. Twelve years ago, "In Sadding Around" by Jawbreaker, and eighteen would be a-ha's "The Sun Always Shines on T.V."
   
   Now? I think I'm pretty partial to "Our Own Way" by Hot Water Music


2. What cheesy '80s movie would you want to have lived? (as what character)
   If we go strictly with the 80's part of that question, I'd have to say Lane Meyer from Better Off Dead. I mean, he's got a kick-ass late '60s Camaro, the love of a fine French woman, and his only worry is that he has to scrounge up two dollars for the strangely homicidal paperboy.
   
   If we err on the side of cheese, however, then of course, it's Flash Gordon from the eponymous movie. Princess Aura, rocket cycles, and music that went with that old Vanguard video game that was composed by Queen. Go, Flash! Go!
   


3. Other than computers what invention do you think has changed your life the most?
   Because "the Internet" would likely fall under the umbrella of "computers," I guess I have to choose something different. While most people who know me would expect me to say the TiVo, that device would be pretty useless without the television.
   
   And without the television I couldn't possibly enjoy the wealth of movies that are constantly replaying in my head.


4. What's your favorite kind of ice cream?
   Most of the time, I tend to prefer sorbet or gelato; but couple of weeks ago, I went to IKEA and got a soft-serve vanilla cone three days in a row.
   
   So, in essence, my favorite kind of ice cream is the cold kind...
   


5. Can you see yourself married with kids and such?
   Yes, indeed.

4. Have you played Lego Star Wars yet?
5. Are you the King of the forest?

Er.. that should read, "If you could play as only one character from the Soul Calibur series from here on out, who would it be and why?"

Who talks like that?

1. Who's cooler, Optimus Prime or Godzilla?
   Godzilla--biology always trumps technology. I know it's confusing, since you can improve anything by adding Optimus Prime, but that's just one of his super powers.
2. If you could only play as one character the Soul Calibur series from here on out, who would it be, and why?
   Either Raphael, who has the highest irritation quotient, or Astaroth, who punches me the hell out. Worms!
3. Jet or Bruce?
   Bruce. Jet's the finger.
4. Have you played Lego Star Wars yet?
   No. Maybe I need some Krystals. Get the kite, Beavis.
5. Are you the King of the forest?
   Dude, if you have to ask, you'll never know.
