's questions. (If I include the quote this thing is literally 26,454 characters long. Evidently, I am not allowed more than 25k.
Forgive the absolute wall of text about to be posted. Blame Jeff.
Who is your hero?
I kinda abandoned having a personal hero, someone I look up to in that regard, as when I did have one, it kinda disappointed me and sickened me a little bit what they became.
So, a more fun answer, my favorite superhero is Iron Man. Sure, they weren't born with anything but a genius mind, but they grew to snap Thanos back to nothing, and who doesn't like the concept of the suits?
If you could live anywhere, where would it be?
The mountains, and that's the goal. Forgive me as that's vague, but somewhere in the mountains, land for 50 miles.
What is your biggest fear?
1st, nuclear war. 2nd, Bees.
What is your favorite family vacation?
One year, we took a family vacation to see some family in Florida, we went to Disney, and Universal, was right before winter break, so I had to do work while on vacation (That sucked). But when we went back after winter break, we also decided to go to Kalahari (My parents had a gift certificate they had won for a free week), which is a resort that's basically a giant water park.
I basically was on winter break for a whole month and a half, it was AWESOME.
What would you change about yourself if you could?
ADHD, Autism, and Aspbergers has this mental fog around my head that has clouded me since I was born, if I didn't have this mental fog, I bet I'd be capable of a lot more.
What really makes you angry?
I have a tendency to get angry at the little things, but I have since learned a great deal about meditation which has helped me ignore the little things.
What motivates you to work hard?
This here to me is a deeply philosophical question. Life motivates me to work hard, because, for me, the meaning of life is to work hard to leave behind the spoils of that to the next generation I have.
To me, that's what makes life worth living, the legacy that we pass down.
Power, Fame, Money, Honor; those are all nice, but what survives overall is family legacy, so life itself motivates me to work hard, so I can pass it all down.
What is your favorite thing about your career?
I get paid to help people on a daily! It's great to be able to provide help to others, especially because the people I help dedicate their lives to helping others, so helping them always feels good.
What is your biggest complaint about your job?
You'd be surprised how many nurses and doctors do not know how to use a computer, like,
can't even find where an "!" is on the keyboard.
Kinda bothers me because, well, personal computing has been a thing in the mainstream for 20 years. At some point, I figured they'd learn things like keyboard layout. Things like that turn a 5 min max call into a 30-minute call.
What is your proudest accomplishment?
Prior to joining eGO, I was one of four owners of a community called
Sanctuary Networks, which ran the #1 HaloRP Server in the world for its lifetime, Was a blast, and definitely was nice to have done that. Miss those days sometimes, when GMod was good.
What is your child's proudest accomplishment?
I don't have a child?
What is your favorite book to read?
Toss-up between the Metro series by Dmitry Glukhovsky or A Song of Ice and Fire. GRRM needs to finish the winds of winter already!
What makes you laugh the most?
Me, my Brother, and my Dad, have a pretty funny meme group that definitely is not safe for work. There are some really good memes in there.
What was the last movie you went to? What did you think?
Sigh... The last movie I went and saw in theaters was none other than Morbius. Queue the Morbin' time memes.
What did you want to be when you were small?
Either a Fighter Jet pilot or a hacker.
What does your child want to be when he/she grows up?
I don't have a child.
If you could choose to do anything for a day, what would it be?
Make some fresh-squeezed lemonade, make some long islands, get all my friends together, get good and intoxicated, and have ourselves a summer party with a barbecue, LAN Party, and overnighter.
What is your favorite game or sport to watch and play?
UFC, Those fighters have an immense amount of sportsmanship and respect, and it's a very practical sport for a bunch of people beating the crap out of each other.
Would you rather ride a bike, ride a horse, or drive a car?
Horse < Bike < Car for me. I am thinking about either getting a pickup, or a motorcycle. Practicality-wise a motorcycle makes the most sense for me as I only need to go so far, and I only ever have myself or one other passenger, but a truck would be the most useful vehicle.
What would you sing at Karaoke night?
Can't go wrong with Bohemian Rhapsody, but I've been vibing with this cover of Viva Las Vegas, and Cult of Personality.

"foggy" because my friends didn't know how to pronounce 4g0tt3nSou1.
Do you like or dislike surprises? Why or why not?
I like the thought put into surprises, but I honestly dislike them overall, because with everything going on, I like to know what I can expect so I can plan accordingly.
In the evening, would you rather play a game, visit a relative, watch a movie, or read?
Yes. I honestly do a mixture of all of the above.
My night ends typically with me playing games online, about half of the time with family, and I always have something else playing to the side, sometimes a show, or an audiobook, when I am winding down, I do audiobooks & reading as well.
Would you rather vacation in Hawaii or Alaska, and why?
Hawaii; Not that I don't plan on visiting both at some point, but I am more of a tropical, Sip on an umbrella drink in a coconut, and some Bob Marley kinda dude.
Never really minded the heat.
Though, I do REALLY wanna see an Aurora Borealis in my lifetime, in person, not to mention the endless blanket of stars that can be seen in Alaska.
Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why?
Perfect Job. This one to me is a no-brainer. I'd rather have a sense of purpose that the job would provide, and in itself the long-term investment into my future.

My best friend, Easy sauce. If there is anyone in the end of the world or stranded on a deserted island that I'd want to be with, it's them.
If money was no object, what would you do all day?
If money was no object, I'd be working on dev projects, working on content creation, and playing games. If I could turn my hobby into something to reliably make money, I'd do it.

To whatever year Star Wars is in, Ideally in that galaxy. Think I could make a decent living as a space pirate.

A stuffed lobster when I was 5. Not gonna elaborate.

List two pet peeves.
Irrational behavior that results in everyone losing
Misinterpretation of my thoughts. I have trouble conveying what I truly mean sometimes, and sometimes it results in assumptions that bother me.
Where do you see yourself in five years?
Largely the same as the question of where do I see myself in 10 years. Right now the entire planet is kinda in this state where the fate of humanity as we know it changes on what happens next, and I am waiting for that to really set a long term goal
Overall, as I did these questions out of order, pretty much what I said for where I see myself in 10 years. I hope to have an apartment, a steady job, and someone to love.

Snow Leopard.
If you could go back in time to change one thing, what would it be?
Hard to say. I'd probably make sure that net neutrality never ended, or instead of buying an Xbox 360, buy that 300-dollar bitcoin I was eyeing.
I came so unbelievably close to buying the bitcoin instead, but I instead got the xbox. Guess which one retained it's value better...

4ish

Can't honestly recall. Probably something on the magnitude of an apartment building.
Would you rather trade intelligence for looks or looks for intelligence?

Not exactly, my ex kinda had a crush on me before we really met, though.
What's your favorite holiday?
Either the 4th of July or Thanksgiving.
What's the most daring thing you've ever done?
Pulled myself out of the worst mental spot I had ever been in, may not be something as crazy as skydiving to the average person, but it took everything I had mentally to do it.

Are you a clean or messy person?
Messy.
Who would you want to play you in a movie of your life?
First off, that'd be a terrible movie. Would not do well on rotten tomatoes. I wouldn't wish that horrible of a role on any actor, cause it'd ruin their career for sure.
If you want an answer, I guess Robert Downey JR.
How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
Physically? 5-10 mins. Mentally? About 2 hrs.
What kitchen appliance do you use every day?
Fridge or coffee maker.
What's your favorite fast-food chain?
Five Guys. Nothing makes me feel comfier and is a better treat for me than a nice thick milkshake, a ton of fries, and a burger that probably is gonna clog my arteries in 20 years.
What's your favorite family recipe?
A toss-up between my Grandmother's chili or her mulled hot apple cider.
Do you love or hate rollercoasters?
Hate 'em.
What's your favorite family tradition?
My grandparents are friends with this family that has their birthday on the same day, so every year, they celebrate with this giant party, everyone brings a side, there is music, and at the end of the night a pretty sizable bonfire, that I typically start, which we all gather and sing songs to. Nothing else says summer like it.
What is your favorite childhood memory?
The times I had when I was in love. Some of the best memories in my life, and for anyone who actually knows me, I was for once happy, I mean, truly happy. It pulled me out of the darkest time of my life and made life worth living.
I wish those days never ended, everyone was shocked when she left, family, friends, everyone who knew us. We honestly were as close as we could get to a perfect couple. (This was when I was 17, only a child by legal definition, but I digress)
What's your favorite movie?
I want to say Star Wars, but that's more a whole cinematic universe than a single movie.
If ur going to force a single movie only outta me, I want to say Mission Impossible
How old were you when you learned Santa wasn't real? How did you find out?
I kinda always knew, as far as I can remember, so if I ever really did believe it, it was when I was like 4 or 3.
I always kinda knew based on how well my parents were doing, things were definitely tight for awhile, so yeah.
Is your glass half full or half-empty?
Given you mean in a philosophical sense, I want to say the glass is full; Even if half is air, and half is water, to me the glass is what it is, and I work with everything I am given, and try to appreciate the bigger picture having a glass with equal parts water and equal parts air, because regardless of anything else, that's the situation at hand, if that makes sense.
In short, it is what it is. It's not really half full or half empty.
But I do have a tendency to leave my drinks halfway consumed, so I guess practically half empty?
What's the craziest thing you’ve done in the name of love?
Barring the stuff I definitely shouldn't talk about here, She had this laptop that was kinda messed up, and it took me several months, but I managed to bypass some very tight security and gain NTAUTH\SYSTEM access via the old replace OSK with CMD trick AFTER windows had patched it so you need the admin password (She didn't have the admin password).
It took me a long time, but I was able to wipe her laptop for her, and I even managed to teach her how to use linux.
What three items would you take with you on a deserted island?
Knife/multitool, paracord, bow.
What was your favorite subject in school?

Memes.
Is there anything you wished would come back into fashion?
VINE. Vine was SOOOO good!
Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
See, here is the thing. I am an introvert 100%, but I find myself having lots of extroverted tendencies, like leading groups, which is ironic because I kinda hate interacting with people; Definitely something that is out of my comfort zone, but I seem to do it well. People are often shocked when I say that.
Which of the five senses would you say is your strongest?
I'd say smell. I am very good at detecting when something is off, or identifying food and some of its ingredients off of smell
Have you ever had a surprise party? (that was an actual surprise)
No, my dad had kinda ruined my surprise party the first time my ex and I had met face-to-face, by letting me know she was coming. Our relationship had started as a long-distance thing because we were in an Online school together.
(He knew I knew it was happening, and he knew I hate surprises.)
Are you related or distantly related to anyone famous?
My family is descended from our 20th US President, and my uncle has some local culinary notoriety.
If you were ruler of your own country what would be the first law you would introduce?
That the government at all times must do all it does with its citizens as its primary goal, and must make reasonable growth to improve the quality of life for all citizens every year.
I'm not saying ditch democracy, but at least here in the US we definitely are moving backward in a lot of places, and it's difficult to say that we are going to make meaningful advancements as a civilization at the moment.
Who was your favorite teacher in school and why?
I had a Mrs. Lori for the last year of High School. They are one of the best teachers I had because they taught me way more practical stuff than what was in the curriculum, and was such a chillaxed teacher, I could play Highway to Hell by AC/DC on the smartboard (She loved classic rock), keeping in mind for my last year of school, I was in a Christian school...
What three things do you think of the most each day?
Does Reddit have any new memes for me yet.
Has anyone said anything interesting in discord

6, Have my moments, but overall I am not funnier than the average person.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
It largely depends on what the rest of the world sets as the tempo. I'd love to see myself as an AI roaming the galaxies in 10 years, but at this rate, I will take still having a planet that is inhabitable and not destroyed by mutually assured destruction.
With current trends, I would accept a steady career, an apartment with my roommate, and maybe someone to hold onto at night.
What was your first job?
Marco's Pizza. Might've been the worst job ever due to the boss I had (I could literally sue her)

Ooo the choices... I wanna say Pink Floyd.
How many languages do you speak?
Speak? 1, though I am a novice at ASL.

My favorite one, I shouldn't discuss here, but the second-best is cooking, we are all very talented cooks in our own way, and everything is always delish.
Who is the most intelligent person you know?
My friend Reid. He's majoring in theoretical physics, straight outta high school. The dude is nearly done with his master's, soon I will have to call him Dr. Reid, once he finishes his doctorate next.
If you had to describe yourself as an animal, which one would it be?
Snow Leopard. Sure, I can be a very powerful animal when I need to be, but at the end of the day I also am a big cat, who wouldn't mind rolling up into a ball and taking a nap either.
What is one thing you will never do again?
Work while intoxicated (Was NOT intentional, if it's any consolation, I didn't take anything before work, and wasn't intoxicated until I was at work). I can't go into details, but it didn't exactly have any negative repercussions, but it did so happen that there was a fire that was started by someone else that day. It's a very interesting story, but not one I can share as it would violate a few rules.
Who knows you the best?
My best friend, Currently we are living together, man has saved my life, and we got each other's back. Man's literally called the cops to make sure I was OK after I and my Ex split because I was asleep (I didn't tell him that I was going to sleep it off.) and he thought I might be in danger, from the other side of the country. Nobody else showed that level of care for my wellbeing and has had my back as they have.
