Put your iTunes/Winamp/WMP on shuffle.
Say the following questions aloud, and press play.
Use the song title as the answer to the question.

1. How does the world see you?
Bangles - Hazy Shade of Winter
"time, time, time, see what's become of me, when I looked around at possibilities, I was so hard to please"
um... that's pretty clear. Inaccurate, I believe, but clear.

2. Will I have a happy life?
Beach Boys - California Girls
Generally upbeat & happy, but I need to move to Cali first?

3. What do my friends think of me?
Jefferson Airplane - Leaving on an Jet Plane
"all my bags are packed, I'm ready to go" - I'm in transition, which is dead-on.

4. Do people secretly lust after me?
They Might Be Giants - Sensurround
"and the world first spoke to me in sensurround" - apparently my lusters are all around me

5. How can I make myself happy?
Abbot & Costello - Who's On First
Confusion and wacky hijinks! I knew it! :-P

6. What should I do with my life?
Beastie Boys - Intergalactic (Fat Boy Slim remix)
and here I was, contemplating a return to my long-suffering psionics/science fiction RPG system

7. Will I ever have children?
Theme from Batman: The Animated Series (the one from the early nineties)
So... any kids I have will be adopted and aid me in my life of angsty crime-fighting? Half right, I guess.

8. What is some good advice for me?
Squirrel Nut Zippers - Hell
"In the afterlife, you could be headed for the serious strife, now you make the sin all day, but tomorrow there'll be hell to pay"
Be good and kind in thought and deed.

9. How will I be remembered?
They Might Be Giants - The End of the Tour
"at the end of the tour, when the road disappears, if there's any more people around, when the tour runs aground, and if you're still around, then we'll meet at the end of the tour."
It was a good run, but it's time is done. Don't worry, though; we'll see each other again.

10. What's my signature dancing song?
Ronan Hardiman - Fiery Nights (instrumental Celtic piece)
I would've thought this more chillout than dance, but the second half does have a strong beat for set dances like ballroom or a slower jig

11. What's my current theme song?
Joan Baez - Long Black Veil
...A dark, ghost story of a song. Not fitting too well, methinks.

12. What do others think is my current theme song?
Alice Deejay - Trance Love Song Anthem
peppy, technodancy, with a hint of IDM... so happy, upbeat and smart? I can deal with that. :-)

13. What shall they play at my funeral?
Butthole Surfers - Too Drunk to Fuck
::snerk:: Oh, come on! Maybe as theme music for the wake, MAYBE, but not the funeral.

14. What type of men do I like?
FC Kahuna - Nothing Is Wrong
Okay, I can't find anything to even tenuously connect this to the question, so we have a disqualification!

15. How's my love life?
They Might Be Giants - Ant (seriously, I don't have that much TMBG. I've no idea why they appeared 3 times)
"there's an ant crawling up your back in the nighttime, but you think that's okay while you're sleeping"
dormant but creeping up on me?

And to repeat #14: Solitaire - I Like Love (I Love Love)
Someone I like/love... vague and doesn't really answer the question, but at least it's more relevant than the first answer :-P

Interestingly, LJ spellcheck doesn't know the word "butthole".

Also, I just checked and I have 1238 audio files (songs and spoken pieces, etc.) which come to just under 80 hours of playtime. Wow.
