Describe yourself in 140 characters

I like to refer to myself in third person, a clear sign of narcissism. Anxious mostly. Sarcastic, if need be. Not from the “school of cool”.

Which TV character would you date?

Abed Nadir, a.k.a Batman, Inspector Spacetime or Brown Jamie Lee Curtis

Ice—cream or chocolate?

Chocolate ice—cream cake. I like layers.

Which book character do you resemble?

The big one. Huge. Giant one. With a hard cover.

What turns you on?

OCD and watermelon. I like it when people are crazy particular about stuff. Watermelon, well!

On a night out, you’d wear?

Whatever it is that I wore to work, which would determine whether I’d actually go for that night out because let’s face it, I’ll be surrounded by women who probably spent their entire evening picking out the perfect dress.

Better 2 am buddies — men or women?

My 2 am buddy is sleep. Period.

Your favourite city in the world?

Chandigarh. Hands down.

What did you do with your first salary?

The entire salary? House rent.

Who would you like to be with on a deserted island?

Xanax, because c’mon, it’s a deserted island.

A movie you could watch every day?

Almost Famous. I get an awkward boner every time I see Billy Crudup.

Game of Thrones or Mad Men?

Mad Men.

Best pick-up line directed at you and did it work?

I don’t think I can be picked up. (See what I did there!)

Hugs or kisses?

Hugs. Sideways.

Tattoos or no tattoos?

Tattoos. Always.

Your favourite indulgence?

Random conversations with strangers and butter chicken. Both, separately.
