What is your favorite word? One is nincompoop.

What is your least favorite word? Dick, I really don't know why but I just can't stand hearing the word dick, so I'm sorry to people who are called Richard and actually prefer to use Dick as their name...

What turns you on? Dark red hair, the French accent(especially a French person speaking the English language), Muscles(not too mutant big!). Chivalry/gallantry - **** you hardcore feminists! With Honeykid on the nice voice, some voices are just divine. And more.

What turns you off? You have seen someone who looks absolutely beautiful and then they open their mouth and an accent comes out that I can't stand, they can be the most beautiful person in the world but if the accent is one I don't like hearing it puts me off so much, it just switches off the beauty. Don't know why. Sorry. Thankfully there are not many accents I can't stand.

What sound or noise do you love? Cheers from sports stadiums far away, there is a football/rugby stadium about 2 miles away from me and the sounds of the crowds and people in the crowds drumming travelling up the hills to where my house is sounds excellent.

What sound or noise do you hate? Fireworks, during the bloody day! At night fine, but during the day, why?! Bugger off you nincompoops.

What is your favorite curse word? I'm surprised it's quite popular here, I'm with the c**ts. I especially love hearing people with cockney accents say it. Also bloody, bollocks and bugger. Also I love hearing Twat when an American says it, every American I've heard so far can't pronounce it right and it sounds hilarious.

What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? Criminal psychologist.

What profession would you not like to do? Decades ago I would have liked to but now it would be a high school teacher, too much paperwork/red tape rubbish and the Government faffing about with changes when it's all worked perfectly well for generations and sticking their noses in... A friend of mine is already complaining about it and she's a primary school teacher, you would think there was hardly any paperwork for that age range compared to say high school!

If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates? "Why hello my child, since I have always known that you would love to see the reactions, I've got it all set up ready for you to travel down to hell for the day to see where all those nasty extremists/terrorists have gone. You know, it's rather amusing to see their reactions when they realise they didn't make it to paradise with all those so called lovely virgins. I do hope you are lucky and one of them appears in hell while you are on your little visit. Bless you."
