Thanks for all the questions folks. Answer time.

From Smuffy
How do you feel about abortion?
That its none of my business.
What was the meanest April Fool prank you ever pulled?
I dont pull April Fools pranks. I never got into the whole spirit of April Fools Day.
Did you watch the Academy Awards?
Nope. Im only interested in the results, not the process.
Do you think astrology is bullshit? Why or why not?
I think astrology is, at best, the seed of a self-fulfilling prophecy. If one believes strongly enough in, say, a horoscope, or in a personality description, they will strive to have the outcome be exactly what was foretold.
What five phrases make your blood boil?
No phrases, really, just certain words and turns of phrases commonly used, especially by managers;
-The use of we when what is actually meant is me for example, saying We need to get on that right away, when what is meant is I want you to get on that right away.
-The use of the word irregardless.
-Internet shorthand used in normal everyday speech. If you say LOL out loud you should be shot. WTF? is acceptable.
-The incorrect use of the word Paradigm.
Do you think the Matrix sequels were boring and shitty?
Nope. I thought in the context of the trilogy, they were brilliant. Watched back-to-back, they flow perfectly together. They should never have been separated for release.
Did you laugh during the movie "Saving Private Ryan"?
No.
Did you ever call someone with anorexia fat?
No.
Did you ever a trick a kid into giving you money?
No.
Did you ever consider running over a group of people just for the hell of it?
Yes.
Did you ever encourage someone who was suicidal to kill themselves?
No.
Did you ever lie about a death in your family to get out of helping someone?
No.
Did you ever tease anyone so that they've developed a complex?
No.
Did you ever cut in line in front of an old lady?
No.
Did you ever key someone's car? If yes why?
No.
Did you ever park in a handicapped parking spot?
No.
Did you ever flip off an animal rights activist?
No.
Did you ever see the movie "Titanic"? If yes what did you think of it?
Yes. Crass, and sappy. Nice effects though.
Did you ever go to work or school with a contagious disease?
Yes.
Did you ever make a mean looking face to a baby?
No.
Did you ever speed up while someone was crossing the road?
No.
From chrisnail_and_I
If you could do anything for a living, what would it be (it can be more than one thing)? Do you think this is achievable for you (if you haven't already)?
Ive wanted to write comic books since I was 6 years old. Not books, mind you, just comic books. I doubt its an achievable goal.
Besides my childhood dreams, Id like to own my own business. Thats more likely.
Can you overlook the fact that Smuffy is a Jesus loving American?
Barely.
Have you ever seen the movie Withnail And I?
Nope.
From Benni
Look at me from the side. do i look different to you?
Well, I can see the streaks in your hair better.
What's up with my hair, anyways?
I dunno what you keep goin on about, it looks fine to me. You're still teh sex.
I'm stealing this from Bracket's journal, because i don't know if you've answered this yet, but it's profound: would you rather spend the rest of your life with the person you love, or a short period of time with the person you're in love with?
The sooner over the latter. Being in love is effectively indistinguishable from infatuation. It burns extremely brightly for a short period of time, then burns out. Love is deeper. Love smolders. You can always reignite love. Infatuations come and go.
From Maxi
why is the porn industry geared towards men gay and straight?. we women whom are straight do not wnat to see fat ass hairy slobs like Ron Jermey? why are all the hot guys in gay porn....
The porn industry does its research. Men buy more visually oriented porn than women. To many men, the guy in the film is little more than the stunt dick.
Ron Jeremys continued success can be attributed, I think, to the fact that he acts as the everyman. A guy sees him and thinks if that guy can get that girl, so could I".
There are good women oriented porn films, directors and production companies. They produce some of the best porn. And they use decent looking guys too. Try Tanya Hydes stuff.
Where can i score some E in my neck of the woods? damn i miss it
I dunno. Love Park? You have to be a drug dealer or something to afford a skateboarding ticket there.
do men prefer boyshorts over bikinis or thongs for undies?
I would guess, that once a man reaches the point where he gets to see them, he could care less what they are. Personally, I find boy shorts cute, bikinis classy, and thongs a touch sleazy. Just for clarity, I like sleazy.
From Lina
when's the last time you saw a doctor? a nurse? had your blood drawn?
Three months ago, to all three questions.
cleaned your home?
Yesterday.
went on a road trip that clocked in over 200 miles in one direction?
Last summer.
where's your favorite vacation spot?
Northampton, Ma.
do you love or hate your wireless provider?
I dislike them, but I loathe cell-phones.
what makes you sneeze?
Poplar pollen.
papercuts: enjoy 'em or hate 'em?
I accept that they are an inevitable part of life.
gold or silver? platinum or silver?
Gold if its white gold, platinum over silver, titanium over all three.
what's your most prized possession?
My home.
do you have an SG stalker?
Not that Im aware of.
if so, does it flatter or make you paranoid?
Well, Im paranoid now.
how many credit cards do you have in your wallet?
One. The limits pretty high so I dont require any others.
what's the last thing you bought for someone?
An engagement ring.

Too many jokes
From Abracapocus
Would you rather that your child be born covered with scales or with fur?
Fur. We could always shave them down. Or sell them to the circus. Whichever.
Would you rather have a tail like a monkey, or an tongue like a chameleon?
A prehensile tail like a monkey without a doubt; a) useful, b) kinky.
From rickroyal
Is Jim Gray not the most useless, annoying, waste of a human life courtside reporter in existence?
Only Jim Grays I know of is a researcher for Microsoft, and a Judge running for Senator.
How much does rarity of creative product alter the public's perception of a creative person? For example, did the fact the QT spent a half decade between films give Kill Bill a warmer reception than it might've otherwise gotten?
Doubtlessly.
In Richard Shindell's song "Fishing" (a live version of which can be downloaded from amazon.com if you've never heard it) are the parts where the NIS officer talks about fishing with his father part of an internal monologue? or is he unaware of himself saying them? or is he mocking the Indian? And does the response at the end depend on one specific intepretation?
Damn thing wouldnt download. Stupid Amazon.
Is a map ever the thing that it maps?
Not in the post-modern sense, no.
From Lotus
Gelatin salads, yay? or nay?
Gelatin salads are a punishment in hell. No one should be subjected to them.
Why are you so bald? Is it because you used to have SO MUCH hair?
Genetics, OCD and a Mach 3 razor.
The world will end in a) fire? or b) ice?
Ice, then whatever life form manages to survive and evolve on the frozen hell our world will become and eek out a meager existence off the ashes of civilization will burn in the inevitable catastrophe of our sun going nova.
I would expect they will be descendents of modern day cockroaches or Lobsters -- the cockroach of the sea.
From dharmabox
Virginia is for?
Inbreeding.
I keed, I keed. Its the state motto, right? For lovers.
From Agent_de_Surreal
How many members of Emperor have served jailtime?
Three, I think. Samoth served 16 months for arson, Tchort served 6 months for assault, burglary and desecration, and Faust got a sentence of 14 years for arson, burglary, and murder.
Ever read the book, "Lords Of Chaos"?
Nope, but its on my to read list.
Will the Flames beat the Red Wings?
Not likely, but I can live in hope.
From alhim
Have you ever had what is termed as a "psychadellic" experience?
Ive used a wide variety of psychedelics, though none of them was particularly mind expanding unless one counts paranoia inducing as mind expanding.
Are you happy?
On occasion.
Do you feel thankful and abundant or miserable and lacking or a comfortable inbetween?
Thankful and lacking.
Do you absorb cats into your knee caps for sustenance, or eat in the normal human fashion?
I do not eat cats. I steal their souls and feed them to my army of jazz dancing ferrets.
From Mnislahi via Smuffy

Black.

I dont. Dont really like Oreos. I like oatmeal cookies.

Yes. No.
From GravesForThedays
why the fuck does everybody keep doing the "Ask me a question thing"
Easier than coming up with something myself.
From desmobile
is angela the singer of arch enemy modern talking singer thomas anders' evil twin ?
Shes actually a really nice lady. My sister met her. She said Angela was soft spoken and extremely polite.
From SamSlade
what is the reason for someone to be referred to as "stinKbreast"?
If they were trying to use random words in their keywords to raise their Google index, but other than that, no.
From Shadowmancer
What is the one event in your life that most made you the person you are today?
The death of my Grandfather.
What is your favorite Johnny Cash song?
When the Man Comes Around
If you could snap your fingers and make any 3 Female members of the site into SuicideGirls who would you choose?
Outside of LimboGirls, theres three I can think of off the top of my head; MeeMee, shiva8, and annajoy.
What is your favorite Neil Gaiman story?
American Gods
Assume for a moment that there is a God. When you die and meet him/her, what would you like to hear god say to you when you show up?
"Sorry bout that".

So ran out of steam doing that. It took a fuck of a long time too.
