1. Do you have a doppelganger? (Has anyone ever told you that you look like someone who's "famous" or "infamous"? Do you agree/disagree?)
I've been told I resemble Rick Astley. I'm a fan of Rick's, so I'll take that as a compliment.
2. What's something you're kind of snobby about?
Name brand groceries. My family grew up—well, not only did we not make a lot of money but we didn't always have a car so we were restricted to the grocery store a family friend owned in town. (That store would also be my first wage-earning job.) The store brands this store had available to them were NOT GOOD. Combine that with the autism-spectrum stuff and I developed an undeserved aversion to a lot of foods growing up. Eventually when Dollar General came to town I realized they were selling their name brand products at the same price the store was selling their generics—and oh, what a difference it was. Sadly the store shut down for that and a lot of other issues. Now that I have a driver's license, I take the 20-mile trip to Big Lots or Ollie's and get even better deals on name brands. I also tend to buy a local brand of milk only because New York has made farming so expensive and I go out of my way to support our local dairy farms that did nothing to deserve being squeezed the way our state does.
3. At what age did you consider yourself an adult?
I'd say when I graduated college. Early 20s.
