MOST COMMON NAME USED:
MarySwanson on DMI
NICKNAMES:
Most people just write MS
GENDER:
MALE! (had I known when DMI was first forming that it would become such a huge deal and I would eventually be RM, I might have picked a different name, although the confusion has been pretty funny!)

WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU THINK OF IN THE MORNING?:
A combination of, ‘Am I late for work?’ and ‘I should probably take the dog out’
PIERCINGS, TATTOOS, or SCARS?:
Tons of scars, a few piercings, but surprisingly no tattoos. With a background in graphic design, you’d think I’d be covered in them, but it seemed to have the opposite effect. I’ve worked on stuff for years but am never completely satisfied with one enough to go get it.
INTERESTING STORIES THAT ACCOMPANY SCARS:
Nothing too interesting, old hockey injuries, surgery, stupid games of bloody knuckles in Jr. high, and the list goes on…
SUMMER OR WINTER?
Definitely summer over winter, but out of any season, I’d probably go with fall

??WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE??

...SANDWICH FILLING:
That’s tough, sandwiches are like my favorite thing ever. I do love a good steak and cheese I guess.
...MEMORY?
I’m sure there’s a couple sappy ones over the years, but a good one a couple years ago was when I got to fly up in an old B-17 bomber. I could stand up out of the open hatch in the roof where there’s a gun turret in front of it that blocks a little of the wind so I could look around. The view was amazing but the pictures just didn’t really capture how cool it was. I love old airplanes and it was just an awesome experience in general, so that was a pretty good one.
...COLOGNE?
Not a cologne person, usually when guys show up overwhelming everyone with the latest cologne they come off looking like a tool
...PERFUME?
No idea
...MOVIE(S)?
Hmm….. Fight Club, Tombstone, Dumb and Dumber(obviously), Old School, Gladiator, I could go on forever
...QUOTE FROM A MOVIE?
There’s probably a million from various Will Ferrell movies and whatnot, but one I always liked was from Tombstone, when the guy says to Doc Holliday, ‘you’re so drunk you can’t hit nothin, in fact, you’re probably seeing double’. So then Doc pulls out a second gun and says ‘I have two guns, one for each of ya’.
...QUOTE?
One of my friends way back said “I can’t wait until I’m a real person”. haha, amazing. I wonder if he’s a ‘real person’ yet and at what point are you officially a real person.
...HOLIDAY?
I guess I’ll go with new years eve as it’s the best day for partying
...DEODORANT?
Speed stick or something, it smells like whatever aqua sport smells like
...COLOR?
red
...SOUND(S)?
Live concerts of my favorite bands although I don’t really go anymore, and the typical guy answer of the sound of my car, it sounds awesome and never gets old
...SMELL(S)?
A classy bourbon, I smelled a bag of vanilla pipe tobacco the other day that was nice, and any kind of good food of course
...FOOD?
Nachos and cheese at a penguin game
...DRINK?
BEER!
...SONG OF THE MOMENT?
I’ve had nirvana in my car the last few days and ‘drain you’ has been stuck in my head. Other than that it’s probably stuff no one’s ever heard of. It’s a good thing it doesn’t want my favorite song of all time, I’d never figure it out.
...LOVE SONG?
96 quite bitter beings – CKY lol I don’t know
...NINJA TURTLE?
Back in the day while everyone was always saying Michelangelo, I went with Raphael aka the red one


~RANDOM QUESTIONS~

WHAT DO YOU WEAR TO BED?
Ha, typically I end up passing out in whatever
IF YOU COULD MAKE OUT WITH ANYONE IN THE WORLD WHO WOULD IT BE?
Wow, I can’t decide…
LAST NOVEL YOU READ:
I hate reading and it’s not really a novel, but I guess that would be a book about getting a puppy . . . when I got my puppy
IF ONE SINGER/SONGWRITER/ARTIST HAD TO WRITE THE SOUNDTRACK TO YOUR LIFE, WHO WOULD YOU WANT TO DO IT AND WHY?
Without a doubt it would have to be Dave Grohl. He’s by far the most talented and has the widest range of abilities and I think he would understand me enough to pull it off.
DO YOU TEXT & DRIVE?
I hate texting and don’t do it nearly as much as everyone else seems to, but yeah I’ll send an occasional text while driving, it doesn’t seem to be the death defying stunt for me that it seems to be for some people
DO YOU HAVE A LAVA LAMP?
no
CAN YOU TOUCH YOUR NOSE WITH YOUR TONGUE?
no
DID YOU JUST TRY TO TOUCH YOUR NOSE WITH YOUR TONGUE?
Ha no, I already know I’m not close
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME?
Ha, like they’d ever catch me
HAVE YOU EVER COMMITTED A CRIME THAT YOU WEREN’T CONVICTED OF?
maybe
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN SKINNY DIPPING?
nope
WHAT'S ON YOUR SCREENSAVER?
Probably the least exciting answer possible, blank screen
IS THE GLASS HALF EMPTY OR HALF FULL?
empty
WHICH THE OFFICE CHARACTER ARE YOU MOST LIKE AND WHY?
Jim, I don’t like to take things too seriously. He seems like the one I identify with the most in the various show situations. So mostly Jim, but with just a hint of Meredith, Stanley, Andy, and Creed.
