1) Tell us a joke.
What's brown and sounds like a bell?... DUNG!
Now that we broke the ice, let's get to know you for round two in the questionnaire craze. (If you haven't taken the first one by now you can easily find it on many model and member pages or ask xHeartSwornx politely.)
2) Fur babies or human babies? Tell us a little about all the children that drive your crazy or fill your arms with love. (Including any with scales, feathers, or more than 4 limbs/legs)
Children are exhausting, as much as I like my nieces and nephews I also like that at the end of the day I can give them back to someone haha, I suppose the same could be said for animals.
3) You have many secret and not-so-secret admirers as a member/hopeful/photographer/SG in this community, but do you have any secret crushes that tickle your heart? [No names, this is about secret crushes!]
I don't think any of my crushes are secret.
4) What is your favorite hairstyle/color that you have had so far? Worst hairstyle? [If you have any photos feel free to share.]
I've been told I look "too aggressive" when I have a skinhead but I do enjoy the convenience of not having to worry about my hair.
5) I'm standing outside your window with a radio above my head right now just like John Cusack in "Say Anything". What song would I be playing to win your heart?
This song makes me all warm and mushy.
Bonus points if you follow it up with...
6) Favorite decade of fashion that you would love to follow if the styles were readily available at all the local shops?
I think it was @therustycheez who mentioned the 20s, I would have to agree, I love the fashion in shows like Boardwalk Empire.
7) One magical concert ticket landed in your hands. It grants the holder the ability to see any band (and openers) at any venue across time. Which band/tour would you choose to see? When and where did this legendary concert take place?
My knee-jerk reaction was to say Pantera ANYWHERE however there's a little voice I can hear saying "What about White Zombie?!" and I have to agree with that voice, would have loved to have seen White Zombie.
8) Name one talent that you do not have and wish you did?
I honestly don't know, I keep hearing the Bruce Lee quote "Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own" if there's something I wished I could do I'd work towards being able to do it.
9) Shootfest question: Name one very memorable event/talent/conversation that changed the world as you know it and who is to praise/blame for your new addiction, train of thought, or newfound skill? (Models/photographers only.)
N/A
10) Theoretically, SG is offering up an all expenses paid SG tour in LA that includes a non-romantic "date" with your chosen photographer to interview, hang out with at the beach, and attend an exclusive shoot featuring them. Who would it be? (Members only, hopefuls can answer, too)
Don't make me choose! I'd love to hang with @tripodski in LA just so we could be two Northern English blokes living large but I'd also love to wear awful Christmas sweaters with @zen.
11) Favorite tea, coffee, beer, and/or wine?
Builder's brew.
12) Cuddles: strictly for lovers or are close friends an option?
I'm a bit funny with physical contact, I have to shake a lot of hands through the week and as soon as someone puts a hand on my shoulder or pats me on the back I squirm, I'll happily hug friends but cuddles are for lovers IMO.
13) Most ticklish spot we should avoid when offering a massage?
Touch my feet, I dare you *makes stabby motions*
14) Reveal something nerdy. It could be current gaming PC specs, your favorite guitar/amp setup, something about your most used camera. Blow our minds with the technical specifications in regards to a talent or hobby you excel at. Favorite spay paints for graffiti or a semi-secret recipe that wins friend's hearts. Give us the nerdy low down from an expert so we can Google and understand it!
Hmm, I don't really have any specs, I'm a massive 'tool tart' so I like shiny things.
15) Recently, there was a homework assignment asking about a favorite compliment given or received. Take a moment to give a compliment to someone of your choice through DM, Whatsapp, post on their page, or any other method that is not directly public through this question. [This is meant to be between friends or someone that touched you emotionally recently.]
Done.
16) Today sucked. You just want to sit at home alone with a pizza, beer (or your choice of beverage), and Netflix to de-stress. What toppings do you choose on the pizza and what movies/shows will you binge?
MEAT a little bit of bbq sauce and hella cheese. I'd binge on some Kurt Russell, so we're talking Escape From New York, The Thing, Tombstone etc.
17) What "old" song do you still love today that remains relevant to your life? [It could be as simple as Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" or something more politically charged like Dead Kennedy's "Police Truck". All genres and decades open.]
I have the lyrics to the chorus tattooed on my ribs so I think this song remains pretty relevant.
18) Recommend one book (and the author) that changed your life. [This is for any avid readers that want to expand their minds]
Okay so I'm gonna sound like a pretentious twat but the Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai is definitely worth a read.
19) You're driving far away from home to get away on holiday, but you become lost. Google maps doesn't work. There are no phone signals. You'll probably be lucky and find your way on track soon, but who would you want riding co-pilot to maintain your sanity and cheer you up while traveling these seemingly endless roads?
If there is anything I learned from my most recent trip it's why I travel alone, so I'm riding solo!
20) Let's end this with something simple. Name one thing you collect.
Polaroids! This is the most nude-free way of showing them because I'm a tease.
SO if you've made it this far the second part is my nostalgia blog that @redkaya tagged me in, however if you are sick of hearing me talk about LA then now is the time to stop reading. There is still a big LA shaped hole in my heart.
Literal hours after landing I went to see the Blackheart Burlesque.
The next day I hiked up to the Hollywood sign.
Went to the La Brea Tar Pits and Museum of Art, this is Urban Light.
Obviously went to Muscle Beach!
Hanging with @magnea at Echo Park. I still remember this day because I got sunburned SO bad!
The view from The Griffith Observatory, the picture doesn't do it justice, absolutely amazing sight.
My first (and definitely not my last) In-N-Out Burger.
Found a Diner on Sunset Boulevard, the guy who owned it was originally from the UK, he made me a proper cup of tea, I could have kissed him!
Anyway, there is still plenty to see and do in LA, I'm hoping to go back in February next year when it's a little cooler, I don't do hot weather!
That's it,
G.
