What are 5 everyday things that bring you happiness?

Ah, what a question. Five, five, five. What an interesting number. A full hand. Makes you want to grab it, doesn’t it? A number you can literally hold. Look at that sky. Reminds me of this one time in Italy, lovely summer. I ran into this incredible artisan, he carved these little elephants out of stone pines. Tiny. Perfect. He was from Sierra Leone. Led the most fascinating life. Oh, is that coffee? Wonderful, wonderful. What blend is it? Costa Rican? Mmmh, wonderful. Perfect. Thank you. Have you ever been? You should go. Travel does such good things to the heart and mind. It opens the soul to the world. Now, where we? Happiness? Now that is a big question. Tricky, tricky. Happiness is like water, isn’t it? You have it then, whoops, misery. Worst day of your life. Suddenly, a butterfly flutters by, or you run into an old friend you haven’t seen in a while, and there it is again, happiness. It’s such a fascinating part of existence, isn’t it? This coffee is very good, you have to tell me where you got it from. The shop, of course, ahahaha, silly you. Silly me, too. Let’s all be silly. People should be silly more, shouldn’t they? Just abrooblibloop and there, no sadness. Just happiness and butterflies, tiny elephants, and coffee. Wonderful.

Viola Davis look

What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?

What’s your name. Name only. Brayden. Ok. Brayden, are we married? That’s an easy question to answer. Are we married? Didn’t think so. Do you buy my groceries, Brayden? No. Are you currently in my employ? Not to my knowledge or yours, apparently. Why are you standing. Sit down. Good. Who sent you? If you have to think about it, then you don’t know, and if you don’t know, then you were contracted, and if you were contracted to ask me these questions, Brayden, then we all have a problem. Class, what is the first rule of answering questions? You in the blue sweater. Never answer without legal representation. Exactly. Brayden, what are you doing? No, stay. There’s a lesson to be learned here about why you should always know who you’re talking to. Which, as we have all seen, you don’t. Now, sit down and pay attention. I guarantee you, you will need this later. Don’t trust me, ask them. You will.

What’s something most people don’t understand?

That stupidity is indistinguishable from malice. Which makes wilful ignorance a deadly shark in the water.

Al Pacino stare

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.
