For once, one of these things actually interested me, so I'll give it a shot.

Hi Glitch,
You don't know me, but I'm a journalist for an underground newspaper, aimed at freedom fighters like yourself. Some of the things you've been doing lately... well, let's just say you're big news right now, and I want the scoop. Would you mind filling out an interview for me? Just answer these questions and return them to me... and feel free to leave any of them blank. Thanks in advance.
---
1.) What's your name?
First off, I don't know how you got this address. My name is Závada LaCroix. You can call me Glitch.
2.) Do you know why you were named that?
We all do what we have to do. Not all of us get to keep the names our parents gave us.
3. What is your status?
I wouldn't bring anyone else into the kind of hell I live in. Single.
4.) Have any abilities or powers?
If by abilities you mean skills, plenty. You have to know a lot to work in my line of work. Powers... just my cybers.
5.) Stop being a hornswoggle!
If you're not going to take this seriously, I'm not going to answer it.
6.) Uh... if you were to get in a fight with a strong wrestler, do you think you'd win?
I wouldn't get in a fight with a wrestler. If I had a bone to pick with him, he'd be dead before he knew I was in the country.
7.) Riiiight... Have any family members?
Both of my parents are still around, as is my sister. But if you're looking for names, you're going to be disappointed.
8.) Oh? How about pets?
I don't have the time or ability to care for pets. I move too much... and too often I'm being chased by bullets when I do. It's not safe for a pet to stay with me.
9.) Cool, I guess. Tell me something that you don't like?
The Joint Intelligence Administration, and the corrupt politicians who support it and make its violations of our basic rights possible.
10.) Something that you do like?
Peace and quiet. It's a rare commodity and I relish every moment of it I get.
11.) Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do?
During rare moments of peace, I enjoy reading old books - real paper books - and practicing martial arts, especially Tai Chi and Baguazhang. They help me center myself on what's important, and occasionally I even manage to forget for a moment about how fucked up the world is right now.
12.) Have you ever gone through pain yourself?
Just take a look at me. I've lost two limbs and an eye, I've undergone more enhancement surgeries than a lab animal - some of them you can't be anesthetized for. I've lost close friends and been betrayed by the very government I used to idealize. I'd say not many people know more ways to feel pain than me. But I'm not after pity - the pain's made me stronger and it's a constant reminder of why I'm fighting, so it keeps me moving even when it's difficult.
13.) Ever had a strange dream before?
You can only imagine the dreams you have when your brain's part computer. Ever dream in binary? I have.
14.) What kind of animal are you?
Iriomote Wildcat. Though some may consider me an Iriomote Wildcat/Computer hybrid.
15.) Your worst habits?
My worst habit? Not knowing when to admit defeat and accept mission failure. It's cost me more than just a leg over the years.
16.) Do you have a favorite artist you look up to anyone at all?
I don't have time for art. I used to look up to a JIA agent named Kace... well, I still do, in truth. She's gotten closer than any of the others to killing me. We used to be close... part of me wishes we could be again, some day.
17.) Gay, straight, or bi?
As mentioned... it's not safe for anyone to be around me, so the answer to this is moot.
18.) Do you currently attend college?
Schools ran out of things to teach me when I was still in elementary, so I quit going. I've learned everything I know on my own.
19.) Ever wanna get married one day?
See previous answers.
20.) Do you have any fangirls/fanboys?
I'm sure some people out there fancy themselves fans of what I do. They shouldn't. However noble my goals may be, killing is never something to be celebrated. I only hope that some day I'll be able to stop fighting like this and just live the rest of my life in peace and anonymity.
21.) What are you most afraid of?
Failing in my mission. I've killed too many - innocent and guilty alike - to let their deaths be wasted. No matter how much I lose in the process, I have to make the path I've started worth all it's cost, for everyone.
22.)What colour is your hair?
Black and green.
23.) Eyes?
Green.
24.) What do you usually wear?
Depends on the situation. Always functional. Dark clothes when I need to stay hidden, neons when I'm out in the city. One thing that never leaves me is my visor.
25.)What's your religion?
Taoist.
26.)Do you wish this quiz is over?
That's not a very professional interview question, especially for a written interview.
27.) Well, it's still not over.
That isn't a question at all.
28.) Anyways, where do you live?
Don't bother asking, you won't get an answer.
29.) What class are you? (Low class, middle class, high class)?
People like me don't have the luxury of shopping at regular channels. Regardless how much money I have (it's not much since most of it goes toward funding my missions), I live a pretty low class life. But that's my choice. Low class keeps me anonymous.
30.) How many friends do you have?
None. I'm a liability. All my friends and family think I'm dead, if I've done my job right.
31.) If you could change anything about you, what would you change?
I'm assuming 'my situation' doesn't count. If I could change anything, it'd be the answer to the previous question. It would be nice for my family to know I'm alive, and it would be nice to see them again. Some day.
32.) What are your thoughts on pie?
Irrelevant.
33.) Alright. What's your favourite food?
Salmon. Trout. Clams. I don't get to eat good seafood very often.
34.) Favorite drink?
Water.
35.) What is your favorite place?
The Net. It's the only good place left in this world right now. Well... some parts of it are good, at least.
36.) Least favorite?
Most of the places I live these days.
37.) Are you still wanting the quiz to end?
...
38.) Well, it's over you bonkerballs!
