My life is a stage...and my family is full of drama. Name the movie that best describes your life and your family.
Err... "A Dogs Life". For various obvious reasons. We're a family of hard-sloggers and fuckwits.
My life scares me sometimes too! Name the movie that best describes the horror that you face day in and day out. [this can be AHH scary or SCARY MOVIE funny scary...have fun]
Heh. Office Space. That is my life. It's honestly that bad, only worse. I work with mostly females, so think Office Space in a Cycle.
What movie have you seen over and over and over and over? Why?
Oh shit... SPEED, saw that 6 times at the cinema... Forrest Gump 4 times at the cinema, The Neverending Story... eight times at the cinema and drive-in combined (I think my dad loved that movie more than me, he took me five of those eight times). Why? Just because I LOVED them.
What movie reminds you of your childhood. How so?
Movie that reminds me of my childhood? That's too easy. The Last Unicorn. That movie encompassed everything that I was. Fanciful. Silly. Innocent.
What movie do you recollect as being amongst your first to see?
Crikey... I think the first movie I really remember seeing was one of the Disney flicks, but don't ask me which one it was, I couldnt tell you. The only others that I remember really well are The Last Unicorn, The Neverending Story and E.T. I spent one particular Saturday in tears because I'd seen the Last Unicorn and E.T during the same day. Argh.
What movie scared the holy smoosh out of you? Does it still scare you?
The Exorcist. I found it hard even driving home the 2 minutes it took get get back to my place from Klaudy's the first and only time I'd watched it fully. I was freaked out completely. I dared to watch it again not too long ago and ended up screaming when one of the cats decided to jump into my lap right where the girl comes down the stairs like a spider (this was the new uncut release of the movie). I turned it off at that point and put some Billy Connolly on to make myself feel better. Ugh!
What are your 3 favorite movies?
I do not have three favourite movies. I have three HUNDRED favourite movies. I couldn't tell you all of them.
What movie could you see yourself as the star/main character? Why?
Anything Shakespearian. I can walk the walk and talk the talk, English accent and all. I'd love to play Beatrice or Kate (Much Ado and Taming of the Shrew respectively) the thespian in me would love to do a female version of Mercucio..
The easiest place to look and find annoyances within one's life is within himself or herself. What, if anything, annoys you most about yourself?
I'm a compulsive grazer. I will eat for the sake of eating. That shits me, because on top of this I'll eat dinner. I've been trying to get out of the habbit - and it's not that I eat bad shit either, it's usually bread or cheese or fruit or anything I can find in the cupboards that pick-at-able. Ugh. Nuts. I eat loads of nuts. I don't eat chocolate.
Most people know at least one person who seems to make your skin crawl and hair stand on end at the sound of their voice. Who is that person for you and why is it that you find them so annoying?
For me, that person is Thomas. He's a deluded individual who refuses to step out of his circle of self-pity. If there's anyone who's more pathetic or self-absorbed than him, I'm yet to meet them. A close runner up (who actually used to be first in the list of annoying people) was TC. TC used to shit me up the wall. She used to shit everyone up the wall. For some reason she got particularly attached to me after highschool and throughout uni. I tried my hardest to be nice and understanding and patient, but she called me whenever she had a crisis and needed to cry (and a crisis could have been anything from breaking a nail to losing her virginity - a fact that I was the first to find out about too, case in point... Argh). I don't like being used as a "convenient" friend.
Television can be annoying to. Is there a television show or a movie that seems to be on TV all of the time that you find absolutely intolerable and what bothers you so much about it?
Fucking SEINFELD. It's no longer funny - not when you've seen the same episodes twelve times in a year each. That's the one that used to really annoy me. And Friends. Friends shit me. Kill them all with a baseball bat. Yeah, I'm friendly.
I am not a big fan of Top 40/Pop radio and many of the songs are annoying? Name a song that you hate to hear and what do you think about, if anything when you hear it?
Anything old that's been made "new". For example - American Pie, Father and Son, Uptown Girl etc etc etc...UGH! None of these new synthetically made bands can sing their own stuff - they ride on the coat tails of those who came and succeeded before them.
Time to pick on the ones we love. Name three people who are close to you and the things that they do that you cannot stand.
Erica. Self explanatory there. She's my sister, it's her job to annoy the crap out of me. SK, for he does not know how to clean up after himself. At all. We had this conversation last night already. Nessa, for as much as I love her... she shits me right up the wall because she never ever sticks to her plans. I never set anything in concrete with her.
People have differences of opinion. Names something that you appreciate and at least one person finds annoying or vice versa? Why do you feel this way?
I hate a silent house, so I will use every bit of machinery inside to fill the house with noise. I like the sound of the washing machine rattling the walls. I love the sound of the
Is there anything that at some point that you just did not like and now do enjoy? If so what is it and what changed you mind?
Working on websites. I used to hate it, I had no idea what I was doing and it shit me up the wall. Now that I know a little more than I did, it's easier and faster and far more enjoyable.
For you last question, of all the people and things that annoy you person, if you had to a choice to eliminate one from the world entirely, which one would it be and why do you feel you and every other human being are better off without it?
The fuckwit that heads our government. Gutless liar.
