Yum! Easy on the wasabi, though. Weirdly, my favorite thing about sushi restaurants is pickled ginger. I could eat that all day. Have you ever dated a person of a different race? ---

I’ve dated an Inuit and an Asian chick, so yes (I’m white). Do you play video games? ---

No. They either scare me or just make me nauseous, depending on the design. Have you ever changed your behavior because of something fashion designer Paco Rabanne said? ---

Lots of things have made me queasy or nauseous, but never puke for realz. Are you a synesthete ? (that is to say, are your senses somehow linked with each other, such as equating colors with sounds, or words with tastes etc… ?) ---
