'allo. I am new here, so let the ranking in commence!! Actually, I used to be something of a lurker years and years ago, sort of disappeared, and am now back to wreak vengeance on all those who wronged me. Just kidding.
Anyway, yes I did read the stickies and here are the official questions:

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
My job is in retail. Lots of stupid questions like "hey do you have that movie with that guy in it?" and "what was that song that I just heard on the radio?" It isn't perfect, but it's an OK job and I work with generally cool people.
Apart from that, I am pretty big into watching movies, obsessive about my music, and I dabble in photography which is something I am slowly getting more serious into.

2. Where are you from?
New Mexico.

3. Who is your favorite author?
I can't name a single favorite, but my chief favorites and biggest influences are William S. Burroughs, Charles Bukowski, Franz Kafka, HP Lovecraft, and Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

4. What are your favorite films?
I don't want to make a 50 page list, but if I had to pick a few core favorites: Blade Runner, Brazil, Evil Dead 2, Alien, Taxi Driver, The Shining, geez too many to keep going..

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
This is a tough question. Tiny Tim?

6. At your funeral?
The Cyber-Tec song "Epitaph" the lyrics of which are from one my favorite poems by Dorothy Parker.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
OF A DARK, UNREQUITED LOVE SOMEWHERE IN THE CATACOMBS OF MY MIDNIGHT SOUL... Not buying it? Ok...uh..of an unusual golf mishap.

8. What kind of casket would you want?
I'd prefer cremation. Or, better yet, a sky burial (where you basically let animals eat your corpse), but I don't think my family would go for that.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
I'm too obsessive about clothes. Just gimmie black pants, a black shirt, and my boots, and I am basically ready to go. I do not have the patience for elaborate get ups, Victorian wear, and make-up and all that. It works for some people, which is great, but it's not quite me.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Very few worries.

11. What's your favorite band?
Again, I have a lot. Just to rattle off a few: Front 242, Massive Attack, Depeche Mode, Aphex Twin, Swayzak, KMFDM, Skinny Puppy, The Orb, Nitzer Ebb...I could go on and on. Basically, I'm really into a few different genres of electronic music, though that's not ALL I listen to.

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
Graduated high school. Did some college, but no degree. I'M EDUCATED IN THE STREETS, MAN.

13. Why did you join?
Because it hurts when I don't do what the voices say.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
I am a male.

unusual golf mishap like being eaten by a gator on a waer trap or like a stray ball going through your eye and lodging itself in your brain? :3
