7. Do you use sarcasm alot?
All the time.
8. Do you still have your tonsils?
Yes - they're in a box under my bed (joke).
9. Would you bungee jump?
No, for two reasons: firstly, a friend did it and the blood vessels in his eyes burst; secondly, another male friend of mine jumped wearing a shirt - it lifted revealing his need to wear what Kramer would call 'The Bro' (it put me off the whole thing after that). Weird story I know, but true.
