Survey Questions from Crosswords and Answers from rasch187:
1. What do you do the few times you are not at your computer?
As we speak I'm putting the finishing touches on my thesis/dissertation, so I'll be a working man soon enough. In my free time I love travelling places, domestic and abroad, hanging out with friends or just beeing out in nature. And as some of the people here know, I am an avid hunter - so just call me bambie killer or something similar.
2. What is your favorite of your posted videos?
They're all garbage....but maybe this one.
3. How many avatars have you had since being a member? What were (are) they?
Three, including this one. It started out as a picture of Bob Dylan from the mid-60s, then Eklek added a tophat and a monocle for my Gold100 celebration. The current and slightly more pschycedelic version was made by blankfist for my 250diamond celebration. All in all, I've personally had very little to do with it.
4. What three sites do you visit most often?
AVClub, various news sites and VS.
5. If you had one super human power, what would it be? Which ability would you be least likely to choose?
The ability to change skin colour, so that I could tell jokes of a racist nature out in public and get away with it.
6. What is your ratio of SFW bookmarks to NSFW bookmarks?
Since google introduced the stealth mode, they're all NSFW.
7. Boxers or briefs?
Boxers, briefs are sooo 1920s.
8. What are your experiences with Mac OS, Windows, and Linux? Which do you use now?
I was brainwashed at an early age and have never used any operating system besides Windoes.
9. Would you most prefer to be involved in a monumental one-of-a-kind hiking expedition, working on a breakthrough cure for a debilitating illness, or presenting the discovery of a revolutionary new way to parse data?
Hiking I guess...maybe I could discover something and name it. And I don't even know what "parse data" is supposed to mean.
10. What is your favorite ice cream topping? Favorite (non-ice-cream-related) spice?
Hard to say, since I don't really eat ice cream.
11. Are you a tits, ass, or legs man?
Legs? What the hell are they good for. Ass and tits all the way.
12. Name five hot celebrities you wish to see nude.
I guess blankfist isn't really a celebrity yet...so: Scarlett Johansson, Monica Bellucci, Jaime Pressly, Paz Vega and there's just something about Elisabeth Shue.
13. How do you feel when it comes to extreme preachers of religion? What would you say to one if they came up to you in the street?
I feel the same way as I do with extreme preachers of anything; that they are a pain in the ass. I would probably try to have some fun if someone like that came up to me in the street. Like saying I regularly sacrifice animals to Satan and acting like that was a perfectly natural thing to do.
14. What's your favorite kind of soup?
Soups are great, I don't really have a favourite. They're all good.
15. What's your spiritual history?
Born a non-believer and most probably I'll die as one too.
16. Your beverage of choice?
Non alcoholic: tea
Alcoholic: cognac
17. If you were going to be arrested and imprisoned for 20 years no matter what you did, what would you do to go out with a bang ( or without one )?
Hijack something and make sure it all ended in tragedy for everyone involved. Or maybe do something to help people. It would depend om my mood that day.
18. If every illegal activity were to be made legal for one day, what would you do on that day? Pillage, thieve, sit on your couch and watch banned TV shows, what?
Kill whoever roasts me here and get intimate with their corpses.
19. How do you feel about the different kinds of body art ( piercings, tattoos, scars, etc )?
Tattoos can be really nice, I have a few myself. I'm not really a fan of piercings. Scars? Never, ever heard of that as body art before, but I guess I've got more than a few pieces of art on me then.
20. Is your face clean-shaven or do you have a beard, a goatee or a mustache?
Right now it's clean-shaven, which it usually is. I'll grow a beard about once a year...usually when it starts getting cold.
21. List your five most cherished possessions.
Some of my paintings and prints perhaps.
22. How were you introduced to video games? What was the first game you played?
Who remembers stuff like that? I remember playing Quake and LucasArt's games when I was a kid, so maybe that's it.
23. What are ten of your interests/hobbies?
Art (mostly modern/contemporary and impressionism), hunting, football, watching all kinds of movies, reading and so on.
24. What is your favorite memory as a teenager?
hmmm...I'm so bad at remembering stuff. Probably all the different people I met from all layers of society and the crazy shit we did together.
25. What was your favorite childhood television show?
Fraggle Rock! Dance your cares away, worry's for another day. Let the music play, down at Fraggle Rock.
26. How would you describe your personal style/sense of fashion/taste for life/artistic flair?
Just check out my avatar for my sense of fashion.
27. List up to five movies you really like.
Taxi Driver, Dr. Strangelove, The good bad & ugly, City of God (Cidade de Deus) and....something by Tim Burton maybe.
28. Why have you stuck with the sift for so long? Is there anything that has made you consider leaving the site?
Well I havn't really been a member that long, though I lurked for about a year before joining. What I like, besides the vids of course, is the people here (well, some of the people here, anyway).
29. Do you have any image(s) of yourself online that you're willing to share?
I guess I could share this one. Some people here have already seen it anyway.
30. What goals do you have as a Videosift member?
None.
31. Why do you upvote comments?
Usually because they amuse me and sometimes just because I agree with what's being said.
32. Have any obsessive hobbies besides the sift, what are they/is it?
Being a football fan (that's soccer to you Americans) can take up quite a lot of my time.
33. What/who are you afraid of?
I guess piranhas kind of freak me out.
34. Who do you respect the most on videosift?
It varies.
35. When it comes to music, what are your tastes?
Well, Rocknroll is my channel after all. Bob Dylan would be my favourite artist. I like some 80s and early 90s hiphop too, as well as the blues and some reggae. Oh, and classical.
36. As steward of the Rock channel, who do you consider to be paragon of Rock & Roll?
Have you ever heard of this guy called Lead Zeplin? He's pretty damn good.
37. Cats, or dogs?
Neither. I like them both to a certain degree, but like kids; I'm pleased they're not around me all the time.
38. You a hat person? If so any particular kind?
I love hats. I've been trying to get schmawy to help me start a hat channel, but he makes a good point about there not being too many hat-related videos here. Different hats for different occasions and different times of the year.
39. Have you ever done something incredibly girly like put your hair up in tiny pig tails, put on makeup, painted your nails, or tried on a skirt? ( for jokes, of course )
I'm sure I did when I was a kid, but I honestly can't remember. I dyed my hair once though...that's somewhat girly.
40. What would your last meal, if you could plan ahead, look like?
I dunno...some fois gras, tender deer meat and all sorts of garnish.
41. If you could buy any computer you wish and have the money for it, what would you buy?
Not a fucking computer, I can tell you that much. I'd spend the money on something more fun.
