1: What is your name and does it mean anything?

My name is Mark. I think it means hammer in Roman or something... I'm abusing a "Can't touch this joke" from this point onward.

2: How long have you known your best friend?
Six years? Seven years? He should be here soon. I'll see if he knows.
He says eight.

3: What position do you normally sleep in?
Whatever's comfortable for that night. But I tend to wake up on my back.
4: Were you a part of any "clique" in high school?
I was part of most of them I suppose. I had friends in most places.
5: Who was your favorite teacher in high school and why?
My science teacher, Mr. Zarzee...? Zarzy...? I have no idea how to spell it but it was pronounced Zarkzeeki.

6: Do you wish to travel a lot?
I've been a number of places around the world, but generally I prefer to sit in my bedroom. And travel as far as the kitchen.

7: Did you participate in any sports while in school?
I did the egg and spoon race once when I was completely forced into doing "one event for sports day". By the end of secondary/high school, I started skipping my PE lessons in favour of RE though. And I hate religion (though some of the people can be all right *placate, placate*) so that ought to tell you something of my disdain for sports.

8: Show a sample of your handwriting:

Not really a good example but it's the best I've got with little effort.

9: Have you ever given blood?
I've had people drink my blood before. Not as some awkward fourteen year old "I'm totes a vampire, guize!" thing. I just happened to be bleeding.

10: Do you like the way that you grew up?
My parents were too easy on me and I grew up lazy. I enjoyed it though. I couldn't ask for more to be done for me.

11: Do you like your siblings? Why or why not?
They're pretty annoying really. But I still like them.

12: How did you meet your best friend and why did you become friends?
We walked the same way home from school.

13: Name one movie that made you cry.
Titanic. I cried with laughter when that one guy fell off the end and hit a propeller. This was when I was a child.
14: Do you prefer to read poetry, write poetry, or neither?
I prefer to write. I find it harder to understand the rhythm of a lot poets.

15: Things about someone that you find attractive?
I'm going to link you to Emma Blackery's Youtube channel and say basically that.
www.youtube.com/channel/UCebpq…

It's mostly the personality really. The same girl with blonde hair, blue eyes and more "traditionally pretty" features would work for me too. Yes I know I basically just described you .

16: What song are you currently listening to?
There's been a lot of Caravan Palace www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sBZdS…
Parov Stelar www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eco4z9…
Diablo Swing Orchestra www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2mZVO…
... I like swing music, all right?

17: Have you ever broken a bone? If so, how?
Not yet xD
- Yeah, I can pretty much leave this answer unaltered from Kas's version.

18: A random memory from you childhood:
Going to see Pokemon the First Movie with my uncle and cousin. And not crying since even at that age I was thinking "it's freakin' Pokemon, they're not going to kill off the main character."

19: Where did you grow up?
In my bedroom. In the East Midlands of England.

20: What was the last thing you watched on tv?
InFamous: Second Son trailer, technically. In terms of regularly scheduled programs, Friends.

21: Do you think you'd make a good parent?
Pahaha, Hell no. I would make a horrible parent.

22: Would you like to meet any of your dA friends in person?
Only a few of them.

22: What was the last dream you remember having?
I swear to you it's not as bad as it sounds but a dream last night did have my cousin naked in it. Yeah... Awkward...

January 12th. 1993. B.C

24: How many pillows do you sleep with?
One big one. Usually with an arm underneath it.

25: Do you wear glasses? If so, how long have you been wearing glasses?
I've had glasses for about six years now. I have contact lenses as well but glasses are just so much more convenient.

26: What color is your hair?
Brown. Natural. With premature grey hairs.

27: Name 5 facts about your appearance:
Blue eyes, messy hair, a rather lush beard, a bit overweight, baggy eyes.

28: What is your favorite soda?
Coca Cola generally. I go through phases of that being all I drink, then kinda ODing on it and getting sick of it for a while.

You could use my chest hair to light a match.

30: How's the weather right now?
Humid, hot and really annoying.

31: Why did one of your friendships end?
Because I was just willing to be amicable when we saw each other at college daily with a lot of the same friends. As soon as they left I cut off all communication.

Olivia. I miss her more when I've seen her recently.

33: Why did your last relationship end?
Implying I've ever had a relationship.

34: Are you still figuring out who you are?
I know who I am. It's just that society generally doesn't accept my kind of person so I have to rework myself for a public persona, when looking for jobs and the like.

35: Have you ever been admitted to a hospital? Why?
I've been to a hospital a few times. Last time was Christmas 2010 for oral thrush. But I've never been like, laid in bed with tubes poking out of me.

36: What is your favorite restaurant?
There's a very nice Cantonese restaurant in Meacham. Pizza Hut's always good too.

37: What is word that you always seem to spell wrong?
I'm pretty good with my spelling I think. I can spell antidisestablishmentarianism so I think I'm good. It's usually on the simple stuff though. Like if a word's spelled with an A or E.

38: Would ever adopt kids?
I don't even want a mitotic version of my own sperm. Why on Earth would I want someone else's?

39: What is your favorite kind of pizza?
Meat feast. I love spicy pizza.

40: What was your first thought when you woke up this morning?
It takes me 40 minutes to get ready for college and walk there. Lesson starts in 25 minutes... Bollocks.

41: When was the last time you got really really happy and why?
Kas's impromptu reference to my existence made me pretty happy. But what made me really, super duper uber happy... Kingdom Hearts 3 announcement.

42: What's the strangest thing you've ever eaten?
My own foot in plenty of conversations.

43: How do you start a conversation?
Usually a bizarre, humorous thought or observation I've recently had. Or news. Online anyway. In real life I do more of the phatic talk.

44: What's a band you've been obsessed with lately?
Miracle of Sound. miracleofsound.bandcamp.com/

45: Do you come from a family "of money?"
Well we're hardly stuck for money. We can afford most comforts. But we're hardly rich. Sort of an upper-working class, lower-middle class sort of area.

46: Do you have a bucket list?
There are certainly things I would like to do. But nothing I would regret not doing before I die. I don't even care if I ever have sex, something for which the name "bucket list" takes on a whole new meaning. That is, if I'm understanding the concept of a bucket list correctly. If not, I just told the internet I was a twenty year old virgin for no reason... Winner.

47: What is your favorite series of books?
Skulduggery Pleasant. Just finished Kingdom of the Wicked last night. That was some epilogue.

48: When was the last time you laughed so hard your stomach hurt?
I can't remember xD
-Somehow I neglected to change this answer at first. But it's rather accurate to me too so I'll leave it anyway. :3

49: Where do you go when you're sad?
Nowhere. I just collect myself and stop being sad... leaving it to fester as a random illness.

50: 5 random facts about yourself:
I fancy way too many people on the internet. I really like my graying hair. I'm very proud of all my anime/game figurines. I really need a third bookshelf. My penis is nine inches long... Okay just joking. Ermm... I like Adventure Time? As if there were people that didn't know that.
