Every day, my Twitter feed is filled with dozens of random questions. This is where I provide the answers. It’s the Ultimate X Q&A. My, how the time has flown by. It’s number 146, and I’m still standing. Let’s do this.

Have you done anything exciting lately?

I went to Food Lion a few days ago to get cat treats. And I actually cooked a real dinner tonight. Fried apples, fried Spam, pork & beans, and an ear of corn. My leftovers will be breakfast in the morning.

What made you smile today?

Fuego, a small kitten that has taken up living on our back porch, came into the house today. He only stayed for about two minutes, but it’s a start.

If you were ever bullied as a child, what did you do about it?

I endured and I survived. ‘Nuff said.

Who would you want to portray your life story in a movie?

I’d want Zac Efron or Jeremy Allen White to play me. I’d probably get Jack Black instead.

If you could make one word famous, what would it be?

I don’t know. Maybe “moist”? Hell, that works as well as anything else.

Do you feel any pressure right now?

I am on edge and ready to explode. That would be a yes.

What do you want me to tell you?

Lie to me and tell me that everything is going to be okay.

Have you ever dropped something on the floor, then picked it up and eaten it?

Yes, I have. 5-second rule.

Do you like stuffed bell peppers?

That depends. My ex-sister-in-law, Becky, used to make them, and they were damn good. But I’ve had them from other people, and they were somewhat nasty. I guess it just depends on who’s making them.

Do you still say “thank you” when someone does something nice for you?

I was raised right and always try to have proper manners.

If you could make one food calorie-free forever, what would it be?

Probably banana pudding and/or chicken nuggets.

Is it okay to be over 18 and still love buying plushies, collecting Pokémon cards, and having extremely nerdy hobbies and interests?

I’m nearly sixty and I love comics, wrestling, and writing fan-fiction stories. So, that would be a yes.

What would your state “Alcatraz” beast be?

Well, Florida has the Alligator Alcatraz, but what would NC have? Probably those damn mosquitoes from around Hasty, NC. The average one is nearly the size of a bald eagle. Those critters are big, mean, and bloodthirsty.

And there you go. Thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, and any questions are welcome and appreciated. Be sure to like, share, and subscribe. And with that, let’s close up the shop today. Take care and be well, my friends. I’ll see you at the K-Mart special.
