1. Name or explain a childhood fear.
Clowns...mirrors in dark rooms...open closets in dark rooms.
2. What is one of your biggest fears in life now?
See #1
3. What's the scariest/most disturbing film you've ever seen in the tenure of your life? I mean, this stunk in your head days afterwards...
Candyman (see fear in #1)
4. What do you do to take your mind off of things that upset you?
This is a veiled masturbation question, isn't it?
5. Do you do anything somewhat superstitious "just in case?" Explain.
I'm the most superstitious person on the face of the Earth. I hold my breath when driving past cemeteries, never put a hat on a bed, never put shoes on the table, wear my cheesehead hat during every Packers game, always put my right shoe on first...need I continue?
6. Name or explain something dangerous you've done that you knew was dangerous.
I suppose bungee jumping is dangerous...I did that.
7. Very morbid question: Have you ever been in a situation where the thought crossed your mind, even if for a brief moment, that you might honestly die (i.e. surgery, accident, gun to your head, etc)? Explain if you feel up to it.
To be perfectly honest, I used to think about it every day while driving home from work...but not because I was in a position where I could actually die. I would just think about what would happen if I veered off into oncoming traffic...haven't done that in a while though.
8. Tension breaker question: If you were a super hero, what would your weakness be?
Caffeine
: Yes, I read every answer.
Good to know, I'd hate to think that I was typing this out merely to get out of doing actual work for a moment...
