Basics
Username: Sangi39
Name: Marc
Other nicknames: Wikim3 online, but none IRL
Birthplace: Norwich, Norfolk, UK
Place of residence: I'll put this down as Bedale, North Yorkshire, UK
Occupation: Cook and cashier I guess (not actually too sure) at Spar

Identity
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight (generally speaking, anyway. I'd but down bisexual but having had so little sexual contact with men, I tend to leave it at "straight")
Relationship: Open Marriage
Nationality: British (English with some Scottish background)
Ethnicity: White
Religion: None, atheist
Politics: "Left" (I voted Lib Dem in the last general election, but whether I do that again is another question)

Measurements
Age: 24
Height: 5' 6" (~1.67m)
Weight: 13st (~82.5 kg)
Shoe size: (UK) 9
Blood type: O+
Handedness: Right

Languages
Native language(s): English
Other languages: Some understanding of German and Russian
Your conlangs: Various over the years, including Dengas (under different names depending on sound changes applied at the time), Zatbeyut, Simman, currently all semi-abandoned.

Favourites: 1 each!
Favourite language: Probably Russian, although I love the North Germanic languages, especially Icelandic and Faroese, and Finnish as well. It's so hard to choose but I'll probably go Old Norse right now

Favourite drink: (alcoholic?) Either whiskey or vodka... vodka more than whiskey, so Vodka
Favourite sport: Rugby

Favourite movie: This is a ridiculously difficult question. The original version of the Time Machine is an old favourite, and then of course there's Star Wars (the original trilogy), various Star Trek films (although I refuse to watch Star Trek IV ever again), Stargate, Fifth Element. At the end of the day, it's probably going to be some scifi film or another :P For the sake of following my t-shirts, I'll say Star Wars (the entire original trilogy).

You can tell the same lie a thousand times,
But it never gets any more true,
So close your eyes once more and once more believe
That they all still believe in you.
Just one time.

Surely that "including" should be "especially", no?
You can tell the same lie a thousand times,
But it never gets any more true,
So close your eyes once more and once more believe
That they all still believe in you.
Just one time.
