I was tagged by bemusedbibliophile to answer some questions! 

These are the rules of the game:

1. If you were a condiment, which one would you be and why?

I would be Gentleman's Relish, because its taste captures my personality perfectly: strong, very salty, and slightly fishy.

2. What are your top three movies?

Strange Days

Labyrinth

Invasion of the Body Snatchers

3. When was the last time you pulled an all-nighter?

Insomnia doesn't count, right? I honestly can't remember. It was probably back when I was still in university. I have to say that I thoroughly enjoy and need a good night's rest. Sleeping is one of my favourite activities. Insomnia is the pits.

4. The frontman of your favorite band/your favorite solo artist breaks down your front door with an electric guitar—what do you do?

The first thing I'd do is probably ask Maynard James Keenan why he broke down my front door instead of simply ringing the doorbell. Then I would ask him to pay for breaking down my front door. I would then ask him why he's schlepping around with only an electric guitar, since an electric guitar is practically useless without an amplifier. Depending on my mood I would either offer him a cup of tea (I don't drink coffee, so I don't have coffee), or tell him firmly, though politely, to go away.

If it's in the middle of the night I would probably tell him to—excusez le mot—fuck off.

5. What’s the most you’ve ever spent on food?

In a restaurant, or in a supermarket? In a restaurant around € 80/90,- ($ 110.00/125.00) and in a supermarket around € 120,- ($ 165.00)

6. Who’s the best teacher you’ve had so far?

One of my dearest friends, Sue Foster. She taught me that hope is not a dirty word.

7. Who’s your favorite actor?

This is a very difficult question to answer: there are so many actors that I like, but if I have to choose one I would have to go with Angela Bassett. It's always a pleasure to watch her act. And she is on-point in Strange Days.

8. What would you do if you suddenly acquired the superpower of invisibility?

Travel the world unseen. I reckon that being invisible makes travelling so much easier.

9. Regular or sweet potato fries? 

Sweet potato fries with sea salt and thyme.

10. Worst movie of 2013?

Star Trek Into Darkness comes immediately to mind. But I'm sure I can come up with a lot more.

Here are 10 new questions:

What is your fondest memory?

If you could live in the (fictional) world of one book, which one would you choose?

Which song could you listen to over and over again?

When was the last time you lied to a person?

If you had to be an item of clothing, which one would you be and why?

What is your favourite word?

Which place makes you feel uncomfortable?

Who is your favourite author?

What would you do if you could predict everyone's future except your own and nobody believed you?
