I note that you and I answered exactly or almost exactly the same on the following questions (though at least one was numbered slightly different on mine):

4) If I bought you a drink what would it be? White Russian.

17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly? I would invite you inside to sit for a spell.

27) What's your favorite place to hang at? library.

29) Favorite thing to do in your spare time? read.

And the following:

18) What was your first impression of me? (hmmm...careful!) Cool person that liked MST3K.

A little puzzling. I barely know what MST3K is, and never actually watched an episode.

Opps, I forgot about #18 when I copied and pasted from Courtknee's LJ. I would have probably replied something like "Cool guy who writes interesting Buffy fanfic and shares morsels about his life in the military."

I heartily recommend MST3K since it has more laughs per minute than just about anything in existence. Some of the episodes are on DVD and some MST3K stuff is usually posted on youtube.com and all of the episodes have been posted on the internet in one form or another. http://www.dapcentral.org/index.php has more info. And a few of the MST3K guys now record funny audio commentary for recent movies like "The Wicker Man" and "Glitter." Find that at www.rifftrax.com

Where is your response to the meme posted at?

I would like to state for the record that I started liking White Russians before "The Big Lebowski" came out. And not only do I love to hang out at libraries, I also work at one. I've actually cut down on my fiction reading in the last several years (although I make up for that with internet reading), but I still love it. Right now I'm re-reading "The Mote in God's Eye" by Pournelle and Niven.
