Questions…
Honestly, Danny, how can you eat so much Subway? It’s nice and all, but….
Silence, scum.
Please state, for the record, your reasons for failing to complete your tax return this year.
I understanding the questings? Yes, yes. Three pence.

What’s your favourite Radio Station?
106.1 Rock Radio
Where do you work, exactly? I can’t quite work it out?
Well, I do many jobs. Firstly, I work for a company that will remain nameless, but it is part of Manchester City Council, and we do constructionish type stuff. My job is in, of all things, Health & Safety, the one area of work I swore I would never ever get into. The reasons behind this are long and complicated, but suffice to say, it pays well, and I get to spend a lot of time seeing really awesome parts of the city, like the hidden streets below the Town Hall, and the roofs of the tallest buildings, but mostly, it involved standing on scaffolding in Moston, taking notes, and computing things.
Well, what’s The Hosting Folks about then? I thought you owned it?
Yes, I was just coming onto that. I also run my own small business, The Hosting Folks. It’s currently Me, the owner, Lauren, the only person in my life who can keep me focused on any work that needs to be done whatsoever, and Jason, a guy who knows what the hell he’s doing, which is more than can be said for me. We’ve managed to get hundreds of customers, and we’re now making some good money from it, and we’ve got lots of improvements in the pipeline also. We’ve recently moved into Dedicated Servers, and we’re growing every day by literally tens of customers!11
OMFG DANNY HOW DID U GET JEFF HARDY 2 COME 2 UR HOUSE?
Shock, horror, I didn’t. I took the video from the TV and put it onto YouTube. I stole it. I’ve never met him except at a house show from 500 foot into the nosebleeds and that doesn’t count. STOP ASKING ME! (I have since long stopped my theifing YouTube ways and run a legit channel dealing in locomotionvideo, so stop sending me letters, Vince / WWE.)
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Neither. I did.
Why does the camera always add 10 pounds?
More than likely because the mirror looses 10 pounds. People can look however they want in the mirror, with their fresh cosmetic plastered face, but the camera usually captures you with clothes on, a weird face that says “I don’t do photos” and a posture that suggests there’s a dog sniffing your rear end.

Why are the Japanese obsessed with potentially hazardous hair styles?
Danger is a Japanese person’s middle name. Just look at Takeshi’s Castle (Or MXC if that’s your flavour). An outlandish Japanese hair style with spikes and lengths that you could choke a horse with are part of the Japanese way of taking danger lightly. Yuji Naka once killed a man with his bare hair when they suggested to him Sega Of America work on Sonic 2.
Ever going to return to FileFront / SWS2B / LOP / Whatever?
I already have! Lurk Sonic Retro all the time, actually posting on FileFront, Lords of Pain, uh, not so much. Still read it though.

How many licks does it take to get to the centre of a tootsie pop?
How the hell should I know? Yet they just keep on asking, on and on. I mean, really. Who cares? Go to a corner shop, and find out.
Left or right handed?
Whatever takes my fancy at the time.
What do you think of romantic comedy?
Romantic comedies fail to highlight the fact that romance never works like that. They’re too idealistic, and the humor is rubbish. Every romantic comedy is essentially exactly the same, just the circumstances of the romance are slightly different each time. “Two people met but they live on different sides of the world.”; ” Different planets”; ” One is a blob of goo.”; ” One is dembodied.”; “One is in the past.”; “One gets the power of God for a week.”
So, how would you write a romantic comedy then??
If I had to write a romantic comedy, here’s what I’d do: One of them would turn into a mop on the first date. It’d have to face all kinds of social and logistical issues like how to put a wedding ring on a mop, or how to make love to a mop, or how the mop can maintain a career and look after the kids, while still being used as a mop to save money as money is tight what with mommy being a mop.

Follow the way of the Subway?
Like a God. It’s fucking sexalicous. Preference: Foot long (No quoting…), Hearty Italian Bred, Italian BMT…..or Chicken Breast with double cheese. Depends on my mood.

What do you have against First buses?
Apart from the fact they’re constantly striking, going off route, and look endlessly depressed? Nothing, nothing at all.

Will you Photoshop something for me / mod something / etc.?
It really depends who you are and what it is, but feel free to ask.
Where do you get the videos to put on YouTube? I want them.
I rip them myself, so, unless you want to learn to do it yourself, I wouldn’t ask about it.
Can you send me the full version of a video from your YouTube channel?
I probably don’t have them anymore, does not hurt to ask, but don’t get your hopes up.
The Hosting Folks are awesome! PayPal is not working / I don’t have a credit card / I have no money, can I have free premium hosting?
Check out FreeHost For Domains. It is probably good enough for what you want to do. I won’t do a free domain name for you because they cost money, so don’t ask.
