What irritates you the most? Racism, sexism,
homophobia, ignorance. I am irritated by all this things a lot. Also, having no beer in the fridge and losing a girl's number that you really liked.
What would you uninvent? I would uninvent Hitler's mum. And guns, and broccoli.
How would you like to be remembered? I would like to be remembered as someone who could make people laugh. I would just like to be remembered really.
If you were invisible for an hour, where would you go and what would you do? Ermm...ahhh look I am a guy, use your imagination! I can't write it down. I can get put away for less!!
