Write a letter to your 100-year-old self.

Dear Me,

Check the notebook, you know which one.

Love & Hugs
Myself & I

Where would you go on a shopping spree?

A pretty place where all the lovely clothes fit perfectly.

This place does not exist, except maybe by magic. #dailysnark

What is your middle name? Does it carry any special meaning/significance?

You’re asking questions. Why’re you asking questions. No, Benjamin, I don’t like it when people ask questions. Coz I don’t like it. I was havin’ a nice dinner, and he has to come in here and start with the questions. Jimmy. Come here. This is Jimmy Two Eyes. Thank you, Jimmy. Ask him why he’s askin’ these questions. Jimmy is very good with questions, aren’t you Jimmy. Go ahead. Go on and ask your questions, Mr. Questionnaire. Oh, now you don’t wanna ask no goddamn questions. You see that? You see that, Jimmy? Benjamin, you see that? No more questions. Now, why is that. I was just sittin’ here enjoying my fuckin’ dinner and suddenly I’m bein’ ambushed by Wolf fuckin’ Blitzer. No no no no no, sit down, sit down. Sit down. Sit. Down. Now ask your fuckin’ questions. What? You don’t wanna? Why? Coz I don’t like bein’ asked questions? Ten outta ten, motherfucker, ten outta ten. See, Benjamin. No need to worry. We have an A+ student here, a fuckin’ valedictorian.

Fighting Words

What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain.

Is that your real hair?
No, I shot it on my last hair hunt. This is my sanctioned trophy as the Ancestors decreed.

Why are you so emotional?
Who hurt you? Was it Mother?

Why do you care about these people?
Why are you a garbage person made of garbage? Look at you, a sentient trash can. A walking dumpsterfire. Gross.
