Gohan from Dragonball Z was my favorite figure growing up.

What would you name your boat if you had one?

I would name my boat "The King of Red Lions" based off the Legend of Zelda Wind Waker.

What fictional place would you like to visit?

The Johto Region from Pokemon, so I can catch all my favorites.

Coffee or tea? Milk in first or last?

I pick Coffee over tea, but drink both. And I always go milk last for coffee, and for cereal.

What's the most useless talent you have?

One of my most useless talents would be the ability to beat any Legend of Zelda game in under a day.

When I was 9 I broke my wrist on the monkey bars, I tried to jump on it from the top of the playground.
