1. What’s the best/most fun/fondly remembered movie you’ve seen on a flight
None. I've never watched a movie during a flight. My longest airplane trip was to Sri Lanka, and I just took a long book. It was Love in the Time of Cholera

2. Favorite social media platform and what’s your relationship to it (eg FB to keep in touch with the fam, LinkedIn to stalk your high school sweetheart from a fake account cause she blocked your real one etc)
Youtube I guess. I became quite addicted to it over the last few months and I'm not fond of it. I don't use any other ones (apart from messenger, to talk with friends who for whatever reason can't call me on your phone number.

3. What have you learned from the most memorable teacher you ever had?
Not much. He was the history teacher in my high school, and was absolutely awesome because of his delivery and constant use of anecdotes. After a while I realized most of these anecdotes weren't as historically accurate as he seemed to imply.
He said a thing which often makes me laugh to this day though:
"I can't ride the elevator and chew gum at the same time because I get deconcentrated"

4. What’s the longest romantic relationship you’ve had and what's the secret to its longevity?
It was 3,5 years. I suppose the fact we were bffs than romantic partners. We were friends first, and then after a while it seems we mistook friendship for love.

5. Favorite Rolling Stones single (what it says, no album tracks)
Jumpin' Jack Flash/Child of the Moon

6. If you could take a month off life to read a really long book you've always been meaning to read, which one would it be?
Ulysses, James Joyce.
I suppose it's not that long, but I've heard it's extremely dense, so I guess to understand it properly it would take a month maybe

So now you want that lost time back, huh?

It's very long, my edition is upward of 900 pages. And it's more than "dense," it's genuinely challenging even to literature professors. I took a year-long course where we did one chapter a week and in terms of the time you had to put into it it was more like a language course than a literary one. But it's more than worth the effort.

yes I didn't go nearly that deep but I made an effort to understand the whole thing and read it together with several sources of annotations to understand all main references and it took ****ing months (months of reading on weekends, that is). worth every minute though

Personally I enjoyed that Hitler/Crowley graphic novel

I've never listened to major rock acts like Dylan, Zeppelin, or the Stones, but I recall "Sympathy for the Devil" being played throughout the 1998 film, Fallen and it was used to great effect.

This sounds great, my favorite genre of films is "dark, tWisTed 90s thrillers I would watch on TV late at night as a kid"

This one from 2000 is the goat
