matgb | 99(ish) questions. (Reply)

I was going to do

freddiefraggles's 99 questions meme, but doing those things annoys me. Then I remembered that I'd done a meme ages back that allowed you to create your own lists of questions. On the grounds I messed the form up while creating it, I went through the source code, ingenious, it doesn't store the quiz on its server at all, when you click the link, the form submit tells the server what questions to ask. Me like.

Anyway, I went through Fred's Qs, removed the horrible Americanisms (especially the teen angsts I'm still at high school ones), added a few, some from

doccy's interview meme (which I did ages ago, can't be arsed to kick start it again) and tried to fix the horrible grammar and punctuation. Doubt I got all of it though.
