6. What sound or noise do you hate? whinging ("mom I want CANdyyyy"; "teaCHER why HOMEworrrrk?"; "오빠, 왜그래~") Grrr....

7. What is your favorite curse word? See You Next Tuesday! (in both the Bristish sense...a great insult... and the American sense...awesome shock value); or quiff, which sounds pretty cool, too

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? stage actor (musical comedy)

9. What profession would you not like to do? taxi driver, my road rage would be the death of someone

10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? "How the hell, uh heck, did you get past the bouncers?... Well, alright, since you made it this far, come on in..."
