If your life was a book, who would write it? - Douglas Coupland, definitely
If your life was a movie, who would write the soundtrack/what artists would be on it? - As far as who would score it, Thomas Newman. He does odd sounding scores, but they have far more dynamics to them than the typical orchestral score. Listen to the American Beauty and Finding Nemo soundtracks, if you don't believe me. They are beauty all on their own.
What actor/actress would play you? - Uh...I guess...there isn't anyone who would play me! Maybe...I don't know. The guy who plays Merry in LOTR seems to have enough sarcasm and intelligence rolled into one
Who would play your leading man/woman? - I don't know...actually, I do...but to answer this would give away too much

Most sarcastic - Have I not been sarcastic around you Andrew? Because this answer is me
Quietest - Me
Nicest - Jesse
Most annoying - It depends on if I spend a prolonged amount of time with them...no, Jana, not you
Total opposite of you - Diana
Most honest - Heidi...I guess...I mean, she doesn't seem like she ever has any secrets
Sex symbol - Brittany
Best hair - Brittany
Most impatient - Hmm...
Worst temper - Liz
Tallest - Me
Cutest - *Snort*
Klutziest - Andrew...I really should write down everything he's run into so you can understand just how big of a klutz he is, but that would be too much (He he he...)
Gayest - Landon
Most unpredictable - Jesse....Jesse. Just...Jesse.
Hardest to figure out - Depends. Do you mean somebody who you know has secrets but can't quite figure them out? Or do you mean somebody who puts up this facade of somebody they aren't?

You like sleep? - Do I like sleep? What do you think?
Play sports? - Well...I kicked ass last night at Taradiddle
Watch sports? - No
Favorite TV shows - Six Feet Under, definitely, Oz, but it ended, Carnivale is good...that's about it

If you could have sex with anyone on the planet, who would you pick? - Jesse just went through hell for this question...I refuse to answer
Why? - Shut up
Are you mad at me for making such a long survey - Oh, come one...it was less annoying than the 328 question survey
