Terve!

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)

I'm a "on-demand consultant". No, I don't know what that means either.

As a hobby, I like working on robots. Stuff like Lego Mindstorms amuse me for hours.

Also, I spend some of my spare time trying to learn about politics and economics, as I know relatively little about the subjects. If anyone wants to point me to things they think I should check out, I'd much appreciate it.

2. Where are you from?

The bushes outside of your window. If you think you don't have bushes outside of your window, I'd go check. And I would appreciate it if you left the blinds open a tad bit wider. Eyestrain is a common workplace hazard.

3. Who is your favorite author?

Malcolm Gladwell is probably my favorite, followed very closely by Isaac Asimov.

4. What are your favorite films?

I grew up with Beetlejuice, so it's probably my favorite. However I was really impressed by Let The Right One in, so that's my most recent favorite. Also, I am a sucker for dystopian movies.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?

Always Look On The Bright Side of Life from Life of Brian.

6. At your funeral?

Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?

Kicking someone famous in the face, backwards, while playing Beethoven's Fifth on a Kazoo, mid-air from orbit, while having sex with both Madonna and Winona Ryder (from 1988 during the Beetlejuice filming).

At least no one can say I'm not an optimist.

8. What kind of casket would you want?

One of these, if you please.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?

Nekkid.

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

Being able to play "doctor" and not end up with lawsuits.

11. What's your favorite band?

Marilyn Manson!

No, I'm kidding.

Now I feel dirty after telling that joke.

No really, I like Velvet Acid Christ.

Not Marilyn Manson.

I swear.

Excuse me while I go bathe in lava.

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?

I have a high school diploma, and I hope to go to University next year. I'd like a major in either psychology/therapy, biochemistry, or engineering, but I haven't decided which.

13. Why did you join?

because like, vampirefreaks is so totally mainstream and like, i wanted something hxc

That was sarcasm.

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

Purple.

Anyways, it's very nice to meet all of you.

Wait, you're intelligent, articulate, CANADIAN, sarcastic, AND YOU'RE INTENDING ON RICK ROLLING PEOPLE AT YOUR FUNERAL?

You do realize spectacular sex is imminent.

Thank you. I shall proudly wear the honour of "isn't a fucking retard" for quite a while.

Infatuation is bound to happen when intelligent and interesting people (i.e., people such as yourself) join. Which part of Canada do you inhabit, if you don't mind me asking?

The not-so-frozen part.

Also known as British Columbia.

I remember Lego Mindstorms, that claw thing in the instructions was one of my favourites, but I was always sad that there weren't enough motors and control points to mount it on a tracked Lego vehicle.
