1. Interesting. Apparently these people are needed to keep the American economy running.

2. Green.

1. Murder.

I can envisage it: "I was planning to poison you this morning but I got lazy and decided to sleep in."

2. A billionaire.

3. I've no preference, so long as the character is intriguing. That said, it would be a bit refreshing to play as transvestite iguana with an Oedipus complex.

1. English and Swedish. And a little bit each of German, French and Spanish. (In the case of the last two, it's very little indeed.)
2. In the case of English and Swedish, the answer is obvious. I studied some German for three years in school, and have taken a short beginner's course in each of the other two languages. It's interesting with languages.
3. Yes, but I don't think that interest is strong enough for anything to ever happen on that front.

--

1. Favourite flower?
2. Why?
3. Bread or butter?

1. The plastic ones that dance when you play music next to them.
2. Because they wear sunglasses.
3. I Can't Believe It's Not Bread.

1. At what point do you walk away from an argument?
2. Do you care more about being right, or reaching common ground?
3. Don't all these political arguments make you depressed or what?

1. It depends, I won’t leave an argument until I have finished what I have to say and common ground is met. Even if it is agree to disagree.
2. See above.
3. I’m not much for political stuff so I just stay out and sit back and watch until I have something to contribute.

1. What type of work do you do for a living?
2. Do you enjoy it?
3. What do you want to be when you grown up?

1. I test games at Nintendo.
2. It has its ups and downs, but for the most part it's fine. Not something I'd want to continue for long, though, unless my pay was increased quite a bit.
3. My answer keeps changing to this question; I don't think I want to do just one thing. But art is one thing I'll want to make, whether on my own or for a job.

___________

1. How's your eyesight?
2. Does your monitor get glare on sunny days?
3. Is there anything you keep on doing, even though you're really bad at it?

1. I wear glasses. Couldn't tell you my prescription with certainty, though.
2. I have it positioned in such a way that it doesn't.
3. Snowboarding. I try to go at least once a year, but improvements are slow and far between--I'm still in the leaf-down stage, but hey, it's better than the "I can't brake so I'm just gonna fall" stage. My brother suggested I should get lessons.
__________

1. Did you watch the Superbowl this year?
2. If YES, was it any good? If NO, why not?
3. Which subculture (punks, goths, jocks etc.) annoys you the most?

1. No.
2. I'm not American, if the English national sport bores me, I'm not expecting the American one to impress.
3. Most of them annoy me, I like to listen, watch and do what I like.
_______

1. If someone had a crush on you, what could they do that you'd find quite sweet?
2. Would you recommend that?
3. Why can't I find health drinks, first aid kits and ampoules when I need them?
