I reckon what this blog really needs is an FAQ. I love FAQs. When I used to organize the Non-Denominational End Of Calender Year Gift Exchange Program at my old workplace I would publish an extensive FAQ addressing not only the Q's that were F'ly A'ed, but also lots of Q's that should have been asked because I had thought up great answers to them, but hadn't been asked because most people didn't have hours of free time to make up stupid shit in their work time like I apparently did.
When I realized that this blog needed an FAQ I was tempted to just make the questions up but then I thought to myself, "Self, some of the comments you get on your blog are pretty interesting. Maybe you should get readers to submit questions themselves", to which I thought back, "You know Self, you're smart as well as handsome".
So this is a call for questions. Ask away. I'll insert some sample questions in the comments section myself, just to show how it's done.
(As an aside, I reckon this will generate either incredible amounts of worthless crap, or nothing at all. It's up to you really.)

About Me
- PTR
- A raging Bruxist, I grew up on an ostrich farm until I was mistaken for a woman one time too many. Leaving my angsty post-teen life as one of three only children, I flew to Stockholm where I unexpectedly won the Man Booker Prize for lengthy blogging about being short. I'm perplexed to report that I like painting tiny Romans.

If talking to yourself is a sign of madness, of what is posting requests to yourself for FAQ's a sign? (...the times?)
If your relationship with your smaller half were to be represented by a tattoo somewhere on your person, what would it be (and where)?
As an secondary question, can you confirm that your smaller half is indeed a person, and not some tasteless euphemism?

Is it true that you're a technical script adviser to Lawrence Leong's "Choose your own adventure"?
What would be the menu for your last supper?
Scrunch or fold?

Again, another excellent question. I'm getting excited about this so I think I'll start drafting some answers and see what happens...

having been tempted with very expensive jars of duck fat, I am at a loss with what on earth to do with said fat. Any suggestions?
As you made reference to utilitariansim would you subscribe to a system of a mandatory organ donation society where you would be forced to donate, perhaps terminally, IF through the collective goodness of your innards, the useful life of the recipients outweighed your own?
have you ever rated your poo?
