1. Is there someone in your life you know you’d be better off without?
Not really, no.
2. Do you get criticized because of your body?

I haven’t kissed anyone in absolute ages.
4. When was the last time you danced?
Few days ago.
5. Do you keep in mind other people’s feelings?
To be frank, I probably do it much more than they deserve.
6. If you have a hang nail, do you pull it or clip it?

7. Who do you want to forget?
I would just like to forget as easily as most people seem to do.
8. Who was the last person to send you a letter?

9. Who did you last tell to shut up?
My pupils. But I did it in Spanish. Heh.
10. What’s the last thing that you smelt that smelt bad?
Well, yesterday I was on the train, very late. It was last Friday before half term and I’ve been to the pub with a few colleagues. I was on my last train and since it’s only for two stops I was standing. Guy next to me seems really tired. Puts his head on the doors. At some point I hear a weird noise and realise he’s started to throw up very quietly. I had to jump over the sick to get off the train. Didn’t smell that great. At all.
11. What’s your favorite cereal?
Chocolate rice pops.
12. How do you feel when people lead you on, but they don’t even like you?
It hasn’t happened so often for me to form an opinion of it.
13. Could you live without sunlight?
Well a recent study demonstrates that we have special receptors in our eyes that react to daylight and especially to blue skies, and according to it we need exposure to that kind of light frequency to function properly. Just sayin’.

Smoking. I just like it.

I don’t lie.

19. When was the last time you felt like crying?
I’m a big softie. I cry easily in front of my TV shows.
20. Have you ever wanted to kill someone (not that you actually do it)?
No. Killing is wrong.
21. What was the last song you listened to that wasn’t sung in English?
Being non-English, I listen to non English music all the time. It was probably “Rise” by Origa, which is partly sung in Russian.
22. One of our SS players generally leaves a critical comment on our memes. Which is fine. All's fair. Do you let meme authors know when you hate their memes?

Being Human. Good stuff.

I have to be honest, no.
33. Does thinking about death scare you?
I don’t waste my time fretting about inevitable things.
34. If you died, do you believe that you go to Heaven or Hell and where would your spirit go?
When (not if), I die, I believe I will be reincarnated because the concept of Heaven and Hell (or spirit), doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.
35. Who did you last write a snail mail letter to and why?
You know what, it was such a long time ago I don’t remember.
36. Do you care what people say or think about you?
I do. And I don’t. That is, I rationally know it’s not important (not counting obvious exceptions like the professional opinion my boss has of me), but somewhere inside my silly autistic brain I fret about it a lot. Weird. Or maybe not.
37. Have you ever been threatened?
No.

47. What is something that you never want to do again?
I’m not too keen on getting really, really drunk.
48.When was the first time you realized the world was small?
Probably when I went to the north of Italy and I found someone who graduated in my same university back in Sicily. Or when I went to my first buddhist course in London and I met a woman who regularly came to my house in Sicily and knew me as a child.
49. How you spend your time contemplating life’s mysteries?
This question is phrased in a silly way.
50. Ever discuss your political beliefs with people?
Sure, why not.
51. Do you care about the environment?
Yes.
52. What’s your motto for life?

60. Does love conquer all?
Love is really, really overrated.
61. Is euthanasia morally acceptable?

Feelings in themselves are not good or bad. Actions are.
64.What do you think is the purpose of your life?
Being happy.
