1. I wish I had never seen... Battlefield Earth, one of the worst movies ever made and I saw it in the cinema.

2. I'd like to hang out with... Paul Keating. We could drink red wine and abuse people together.

3. If everyone would leave me alone, I could... Be really lonely and wish there were more people around.

4. Love is great, but I'd also marry for... Sex, Money, Power and appearances. Mainly appearances.

5. I always mispronounce... words.

6. What question would you ask God? What made you think this was a good idea? Also, who killed Kennedy?

7. If you were a vegetable, what vegetable would you be, and why? A tomato - because I'm enigmatic.

8. If you were a ghost, who would you haunt? If they were still alive, my high school bullies. Yeah, take that! you, bullies..... Yeah.

9. Who would play you in a movie version of your life? Chuck Norris.

10. What advice would you give your younger self? Life is not that hard, chill out, do nothing. You won't be a poor, starving comedian in the future. No, you'll be rich. (cough)
