1. When you’re thirsty at home, what’s your first choice? Water? Juice? Soda? Tea? Coffee? Other?

Beer

2. What’s your favourite episode of The Simpsons?

*tries to fathom having a favorite*

*brain starts smoking*

*check engine light comes on*


3. What would/do you want inscribed on your tombstone?

RESERVED

4. If you could go forward or backwards in time, up to ten years, which would you choose?

Back is the common choice sure, but lets fast forward to next month when I close on a home.

5. What is the coolest car you’ve ever driven, whether you owned it or not?

My 1991 Chevy Cavalier had some kind of industrial strength AC in it. It was freakishly cool. I used to poke a hole in my box of beer and put it up next to the floor vents and I'd get a layer of ice forming on the outside of the cans.

6. What’s your view on a person’s right to die?

Maybe the left survives?

My life sucked just as much ten years ago so it would be fruitless in my case. I'd have to go back at least 25 years to change anything about my life. And, no, I won't leave you alone.

Stolen police cruiser I guess. Cars are pretty lame though.
You stole a police car?

What's even the point of going back (10 years or less) if you're not actually living your own life, as it were? Also, is it a one-way ticket or do you get to go back to your own time? And will you change the present by going to the past or were you always meant to and the changes you caused already happened before you decided to time travel? I need answers! (not really)

Water. Coffee and tea dehydrate, not hydrate

2. What’s your favourite episode of The Simpsons?

The two that stuck with me are the one with MJ and the Australia one. I don't think I watched more than 10 eps overall

3. What would/do you want inscribed on your tombstone?


A rather untranslatable short poem by my favorite poet, Marina Tsvetaeva. Though there are quite a few sentences by Maurice Blanchot I could, ahem, live with as well

4. If you could go forward or backwards in time, up to ten years, which would you choose?

I'm not good at this sci fi ****

5. What is the coolest car you’ve ever driven, whether you owned it or not?

Whatever I learned driving on cause that's as far as I got

6. What’s your view on a person’s right to die?

Inalienable. Having said that, it could become a thorny issue in the age of overpopulation, climate crises, further rolling back of welfare services etc. Something like this is a warning sign:

No opinion on f&ckability of senior citizens but young Helen Mirren is easily one of the sexiest women to ever grace the screen.

I suppose the real point is to freak your younger self out by making ghostly moans and saying "look what you turn out to be!" As for the rest? Hell, I don't know: sign up for Temporal Mechanics 101.

i mean that's one of the big problems i have with those shows is they never depict time traveling realistically.
