There are always plenty of random questions showing up on my Twitter feed. I’m going to answer a few of them. Why? Because I can. Let’s roll.

Is it ok to leave the movie theatre if the film is bad or should you stay out of respect for the art?

If the movie is bad, why should I stay? Respect for the art is total B.S. If I’m watching a movie or show on Netflix and it’s not enjoyable or good, I find something else. Why would a movie theater be any different?

Sushi: Like, Love, or Hate?

I have tried it a few times, but I just don’t get it or find it appealing in any way, shape, or form. The whole concept is nasty to me. I guess that would put me in the hate category.

When do you typically wake up?

When I have to pee or the cat decides to jump onto my stomach or head. I don’t really have a set time each day, but I get up when I have to. No sooner and no later.

When you tell someone that you’re gonna pray for them, do you actually pray for them?

If I say I will, I do. I’ll mutter a silent prayer and wish the best for them in their situation. And even if I haven’t made a proclamation, there are plenty of people I pray for every day for a variety of reasons. Prayer is a powerful tool and I indulge quite regularly.

What job used to be highly respected but is now a joke?

Politicians, police officers, preachers, teachers, reporters, newscasters, etc. Take your pick.

What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever quit or tried to quit?

Eric. It’s the best for all parties involved and I have to do it, but I’m missing him and sure as hell don’t want to give him up or quit him. But, that being said, it’s the best thing for us both at the moment. I just hope that one day, we’ll be able to get back together and figure something out.

What’s been your favorite moment of 2025 so far?

So far, this new year hasn’t been filled with many highlights or great moments. Nothing too bad either, but nothing that stands out. Probably lying in bed, talking to my cat, while listening to music.

Does getting ignored trigger you?

Why should it? I’m turning into Greta Garbo more and more every day. I vant to be alone!

Do you think we ever went to the Moon?

I can honestly say that no, I have never been to the moon. Hell, I’ve never even been to Disney World. Have other human beings? It would not surprise me to learn of colonies on Mars, time travel, and regular trips across the multiverse. I think many advancements and things are going on that we, the common man, are not allowed to know. So, the moon? Yeah, I think man has been there.

Do you agree that securing the border is a more pressing issue than climate change?

Climate change and global warming are fake and a scam for money than truly based in reality. Illegal aliens coming across the border and invading our nation is a real threat and needs to be stopped. Securing the border is and should be the bigger priority.

And there you go. Thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, and any questions are welcome and appreciated. And with that, let’s wrap it up. I’ll see you later.
