      Not at all. And as I get old I'm turning out to be not much of a night person either.

      I'd like to take a road trip to the Grand Canyon sometime. I've never been, and it's seems like it'd be a beautiful experience.

      And it'll also mean I can stop by Las Vegas on the way back.

      I used to think I was a realist, but maybe that was just an excuse to be a pessimist. I'm an optimistic existentialist now - the fullness or emptiness of the glass has no inherent meaning beyond what I give it. Today I choose see the emptiness as evidence of the amazing experiences I've had, tinged with the sadness that they're now long gone. And I choose to see the fullness as a promise that the best is yet to come, even if I can't be quite sure that it will come true.

      The 1998 one is most seared into my brain (and sketched in my high school notebooks) so would probably be my favorite.

      I also really like the 2008 one, and even though I never really got into Batman Beyond, like the 1999 one as well. Let's just be honest... I like pretty much all of them.

      He was in it? I did like Avon Barksdale's performance though.

      I don't think there's any context where I'd take slo-mo, unless I was transported to a dystopian future.

      Dark Knight vs Batman Begins.

      I also love Army of Darkness way more than Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2.

      A midnight bowl of cereal is one of life's great pleasures.

      It's been a while since I've seen Sopranos so it's kind of hard to compare directly, but it definitely ranks in the top 3 for me in terms of greatest TV dramas. Great writing, superb acting, and a rich cast of characters- I think it set the template for what to expect from a premium drama. Maybe only The Wire and Breaking Bad are at the same level. I don't think Homeland or Dexter really hit the same bar.

      Come on, no contest. Batman is THE WORLD'S GREATEST DETECTIVE. Even in Sherlock's universe, he's not the best detective. And he doesn't have any of the cool gadgets or cars.

      Also, I would totally rather wear a Batman costume in public than a Sherlock Holmes hat. That could be my bias speaking though.

      Which glitches specifically? We try to fix things as best as we can, but it might not be something we're aware of.

      That said, there are a number of huge infrastructure changes we've been making, and will be doing a lot more of in the next few weeks. Frankly, over the last few years we've added a lot of features and complexity to the site that may not be very useful anymore and ends up being the source of a lot of bugs and instability. So we're replacing a number of things and stripping out some not-so-widely-used features as a way to make the site simpler and more robust.

      So very soon, I hope that some of the places where you'll see sporadic glitches (follower counts, all responses lists, etc.) will get a lot better.

      I can't promise perfection, but we're working on it.

      I don't have any plans to do so. You can remove public questions from your profile page, but sending questions to people on Formspring work just like email and text messages - once you send something to someone, it goes into their inbox and they may have already seen it already, so it could be a bit jarring to give people the ability to take items out of other people's inboxes.

      Never had it. Got a Keurig over a year ago, but ended up switching to a regular 'ol coffee maker.

      Unless you count this, unfortunately, I'm not. I got really busy after Formspring launched and blogging was one of the first things to drop off my todo list. After some months passed without any updates I decided to just redirect the site to my Formspring account.

      At least once a week I think about getting back into it as I really miss it. I have dozens of posts that I've started, but just haven't had the momentum to finish a few posts, get a new site up, and commit to posting regularly. Maybe 2013 will be the year I bring it back.
