Sorry, just because I haven't sat face to face with them all yet doesn't make them any less real.

× I am a Libertarian.	× I can speak more than one language.	✓ I can fall asleep even if the whole room is as noisy as it can be.
✓ I would rather read than watch TV.	× I like reading fact more than fiction.  (fact is not the opposite of fiction. Good fiction is full of facts, it just tells a story that never happened.

× I am compulsively honest.	× I was born with a congenital birth defect that has never been repaired.	× I have danced topless in front of dozens of complete strangers.  (If I had, it probably wouldn't impress them overly much.)
× I have gone from wishing I was a girl to revelling in being a boy to feeling like a girl again in the span of five minutes, and not cared a whit for my actual sex.	× I am unashamedly bisexual, and have different motivations for my desires for different genders.	× I sometimes won't sleep a whole night or eat a whole day because I forget to.  (Forget - no, still have a few years before the memory gets that bad. Busy on something - writing, music, programming, reading, whatever - yeah.)
✓ I find it impossible to get to sleep without some kind of music on.  (Not quite impossible, but I prefer music on. Then again, if I had my way, we'd have crystal clear audio in every room of the house.)	× I dislike milk.	× I obsessively wash my hands.
× I always carry something significant around with me.	× Sometimes I'd rather wear a wig in day-to-day life than use my own hair.	× I've pushed myself to become more self-aware and thereby more aware of others.
× Even though I live on my own I still cry sometimes because I miss my mother.	× I hand wrote all the HTML tags in this document.  (Only if the preview comes out looking screwy - then I'll have to go back and fix whatever this generates.)	✓ I've liked something which a majority of people claimed was either bad or weird.

× I do not 'get' most comedy acts.	✓ I don't think strippers are money-greedy or slutty for dancing.	× I don't like to chew gum.  (I'd say something about swallowing, but I know a few people out there would twist that to a different meaning...)
× I am obsessed with history/historical things and can't wait for someone to build a time machine so I can be the first to use it.	× I can never remember for the life of me where I parked the car.	× I had the TEEN ANGST thing going for at least 2-3 years.
✓ I wish people would be more empathic and honest with each other.	× I play Dungeons and Dragons weekly.	✓ I love to sing.
× I want to live in my mother's basement when I grow up.	✓ I have a custom-built computer.	× I want to create a certain someone's babies, even though there's a 0% possiblity of ever achieving it.
× I would be in a relationship with one of my pets if they were human.	× I've gone skinny-dipping.	× I've performed in three plays.
× I enjoy burritos.	× I'm Irish and loving it.  (I'm one-fourth Irish descent.)	✓ I have a thing for redheads.  (And blondes. And brunettes. And whatever else. Depends on my mood.)
× I am a twin!	✓ Most of the times, I'd rather do something intellectual instead of doing something generically 'fun'.	× Once I set out to finish something, I always stay at it until it is completed before I move on to something else.
× I wish there were a way to erase past mistakes.  (Nope. Made plenty of them, but I wouldn't undo any of them - even the big one(s).)	× I sleep more than 12 hours a day.	× I wish I could be prouder of what I've accomplished, but it's never enough.
× I need more time to myself.	× I wish I was more open-minded.	× I hope that I go really prematurely grey.  (Ummm, yeah. There's bunches o' grey already, not as much as I expected by this age. But it's getting a bit too late to be considered premature if it all went grey tomorrow.)
× I download songs from the internet.	× I've just reenacted chapter 58 of Death Note with my best friend.	× I say random things to freak people out.
× I'm still a little mad about the ending of Death Note.	× I love playing Truth or Dare.	× I love listening to slow music, but I hate singing to it.
× Music helps me remember that I am not alone.  (They could have stopped at "Music helps me" and I'd agree.)	× Playing my favorite sport makes me temporarily forget my problems.	✓ I think this survey is particularly long.  (Like a really long thing.)
× I prefer my LJ friends to my real-life ones.  (LJ friends exist in real life. Shallow, immature POV to try to differentiate. It can only end in tears.)	× I can only hate someone that I love.  (Deep philosophy there. Fortunately, people can think they hate people they don't know if they love. Best to try to keep hate a fleeting emotion.)	× I've ordered an extra two shots of espresso to an Americano at Starbucks.
