Thanks, Raf. Thanks, Steve. :)
1. If Barbie is so popular, why do you need to
buy her friends?
I don't want to judge her. She's only human.
2. What was the first thing that crossed your mind
"Wow. That hair is a lot 'blonder' than the others." Then I heard a cardinal and I had a fleeting thought about the mild weather. Then I switched on to my activities of daily living...I have to leave in n amount of time... :)
3. You just bought a nation, you are the main dick in charge

She is too perfect, and as such, alone, like Marylin Monroe? She looks for an ideal herself and gets disappointed all the time? She suffers from depression and aenemia? She is an emotional vampire?

The last one, she is an emotional vampire.
2. What was the first thing that crossed your mind when you first looked in the mirror today?

I have a beautiful soul though.
(I look in the mirror every second day when I shave.)

3. You just bought a nation, you are the main dick in charge, what is the first law which you are going to implement?
Replace democracy with meritocracy - introduce government by universities.
4. If you'd purposely try to fail (and you then succeed in failing), what would be the reason or better yet - at what would you try to fail?

I am a generator of ideas that I often fail to implement and impose on others. Thanks to these failures I still have friends.
5. Despite its cost, why is living still so popular?

"... but that the dread of something after death,
the undiscovered country from which no traveler returns,
puzzles the will and makes us rather suffer the ills we have
than fly to others that we know not of..."
Shakespeare's words more or less as I remember.
