It's time to get to know Gabe a little better. He answers 20 off-the-wall questions to, well, kill some time and give you a laugh.
If animals could talk, which one would be the rudest?
Birds. They kind of already do talk with the chirping. I can't handle squawking of crows or black birds and there's something really obnoxious about seagulls. I don't even care what they're trying to say, it's rude.
What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever eaten on a dare?
A pickle dipped in peanut butter and then rolled in crushed potato chips. It was a culinary experience I wouldn't recommend, unless you enjoy existential dread with a side of heartburn.
If you had to be trapped in a TV show for a day, which one would you choose and why?
"The Great British Baking Show" – free cake!
What’s your most embarrassing recurring dream?
Showing up to school naked. Not so much embarrassing for me, embarrassing for them that they don't look this good.
If you could have any superpower, but it could only be used for incredibly mundane tasks, what would it be?
Telekinesis, to control the TV remote.
What’s the silliest thing you’ve ever seen someone do in public?
Someone tripping and falling while trying to text. I actually love seeing it. Walking into a mailbox outside, a lamp post, crashing into other people. I live for it.
What is one thing you are obsessed with, but secretly embarrassed to admit?
When I discover a new song I like, I'll literally play it over and over again for four or five hours straight. It's not uncommon to be sitting and working at my computer and play the song and keep repeating it just before it ends (on YouTube so I don't have to sit through a minute of commercials just to play it again). Typically, the next day I'm sick of the song and don't want to hear it again but it will still be in my head.
If you could invent a holiday, what would it be and how would it be celebrated?
"International Talk Like a Pirate to Your Pets Day." Everyone would be required to address their furry, scaly, or feathered companions in their best pirate voice. "Ahoy, me fluffy parrot! Fetch me a cracker, ye scurvy dog!" I've tried it with the dogs here but, well, no luck.
What's the worst advice you've ever received?
"Just trust me." I'm not elaborating.
If you could only communicate through interpretive dance for the rest of your life, what would be the first message you’d attempt to convey?
"I need coffee."
What's your go-to dance move when no one is watching?
This is the second dance question and I see where this is headed. I'm not answering anymore dance questions. I'm already made fun of enough on Instagram with my dancing videos from when we were shooting the TV commercial.
What is your spirit vegetable?
I don't even know what that means.
If you were a crayon, what color would you be and why?
Blue, because it's calming.
What's the most ridiculous talent you possess?
I can wiggle my ears.
If you could have any fictional character as your personal assistant, who would you choose and why?
Hermione Granger – she's organized and intelligent.
What sound do you hate the most?
Rude birds.
What is the weirdest thing you believed as a child?
That the moon was made of cheese.
If you could rename any everyday object, what would it be?
Spoons – they should be called "soup shovels."
If you could only eat one type of sandwich for the rest of your life, what would it be?
A classic grilled cheese.
If you were a potato, how would you want to be cooked?
Mashed with butter and cream.
