I do, but both is true. When it comes to dexterity I'm bipolar. I have my extremely rogue-like dexterity -days and my clumsy bumbling idiot -days. Do you listen to ambient non-mainstream music without lyrics? Not that often but I should do more often as I like it when I do.
Do you drink water? As in plain water?

Plain water is 90% of what I drink. I only slip a cocoa or a beer in there every now and then but that's about it.

I have to say steel, because we live in the Steel-Age. Some people try to justify some nonsense about 'Plastic' age or 'Silicon' age, or whatever, but no, we are still in the Steel-age. It's what makes everything, and makes everything possible in our modern world.

Oh yes. I fist pumped quite a few times when I was playing Kerbal Space Program - a very good candidate to the most awesome game I've ever played -, every time I managed a manned (Kerbaled) mission to the surface of some moon or planet and safely back home again.

I think nearly all the big manufacturers have a chance to win next year (Peugeot only if they up their pace by quite a bit), this year it wasn't clear who was going to win until the last 1-2 hours! If Cadillac improves their car and they are clever they won't push so hard in the first few races so they don't get BoP'd to death and then they let loose in Le Mans. Love to see an American car in the front rows, very unusual in European racing. Love their V8.-

Now that is a very good question and not as easy to answer as one would think.
For me I would put it like this in physical situations I would say I was very courageous. (Here is one example, playing on a touch footall team one of our guys was getting cheap shotted and sucker punched near the other teams bench. I was on our sidelines, got up ran over to the other teams side of the field and just smashed the sucker puncher with a body block sending him flying. Now I was right amongst their whole team but I just didn't care.)
Now for mental situations not so courageous at all. In the prime dating years there were a lot of girls I never asked out do to mental chickenism.
So for some things courageous, others not at all.

If I eat anything with peanut butter on it its only because I accidentally bought peanut butter and I accidentally broke the glass and it accidentally spilled over my food and I did not notice it.
Therefore its technically possible that I will eventually eat food with peanut butter on it, but it is highly unlikely.

I was raised to be gentleman, so no, I don't. But when something goes terribly wrong, and there's either physical injury or loss of lots of money, I'm known to use strong language. In English it's usually God damn or SOB! In Finnish Helvetin Perkele is quite powerful. Do you know any words in Finnish?

We have passed on NONE, of the struggles, sacrifices or freedom, to our children in the genes or breast milk. Every newborn generation is the very same kind of humans, as those who carried Lenin, Mussolini, Hitler, Mao, Kim Il Sung, Pol Pot, Khomeini to power.
Right now, there is a very worrying push for ideologically founded oppression in the English speaking nations, USA, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zeeland. It's but a scratch, so far. But it comes from a direction, the institutions, that should have been the very safeguards against this. ...It's but a scratch, but I'm not complacent with where it might go. Not just it, but also the backlash.
There is a very restraining factor between powerful nations today, in the form of nuclear weapons. But we have/have had conflicts that in some regards are in the same scope as WWII. WWII was not one conflict. It was several, that happened to happen at roughly the same time, and became connected by alliances of opportunity. Soviet, Japan, Italy and Germany all had the same idea of becoming greater and more powerful, by conquering and enslaving other nations. I don't remember if Soviet or Japan was first out? Probably Soviet, in the east. But Germany was last one out and ironically managed to get Soviet allied with UK/USA, though it started by erasing Poland in partnership with same Soviet. UK & France had given Poland guarantees regarding Germany, ...but not Soviet.
Also, I would say we cut ourselves off from what happens far away and doesn't involve the West.
Unfortunately, I think this might be one of those things that are not a matter of "if", but "when". Did you imagine a thing like the Balkan war could happen? In Europe? Did you imagine a thing like russia-Ukraine war?
Do you take a special liking to some kind, category, of things? Like involving them in some kind of hobby?

I would say no, but my kid likes marbles a lot, and he does different stuff with them, like motorised circuits or just natural ones, or throwing them in groups and ... Any way marble circuits are clearly a hobby there. And one that is widely shared around the world if i believe youtube view counts.
Do you have 0 hobby ?

No, I don't have "0" hobby. I have several hobbies. Picture-art, drawing and painting, physical mediums, not digital. Done that since I was three, about.
Then also photography. Done that since my teens. I liked film, B&W and darkroom work so much that I almost stopped when Digital photography entered. It got too easy and accessible.
I used to shoot. I was a competition shooter, but I don't do that anymore. Much about opportunity I guess. The way and where I live now, it's not as convenient and easy anymore. ...And maybe I tired of it. There are in fact a lot of things I used to do, but which aren't so convenient and easy to get around to do anymore. Skindiving. Sailing. Fishing. Designing, building and flying model aircraft,..
I think I'll have to include reading as a "hobby" too. And writing.
Do you think you have ever deliberately stopped doing something, that you used to do, because you decided it's so dangerous that you can live without it? Tobacco? Heroine? Motorcycles? Base jumping? Sugar? Boxing?..

Yes, I stopped riding my bicycle on expressways. I used to have a few routes I really liked that required me to drive on expressways and I decided not to do that anymore because its simply too dangerous to have cars and trucks pass me with 100km/h less than half a meter away from me. Legally its not an issue, you can ride your bike on expressways but boy, its too dangerous. When I was younger and dumber I did not care, but now I do.

I'm in my mid thirties and I'm still getting fitter, I train cardio harder, lift heavier than in my twenties and I don't have a single wrinkle in my face - only a couple white hairs in my beard and my scalp. I read a lot about people my age starting to get all kinds of little age related issues which is kind of scary but I got nothing so far.
Do you still buy physical books?

Absolutely. Every book that is important to me, I want as a brick of printed paper. The information inside that doesn't need some electronic device of limited lifespan, weird 'subscribed' service, the existence of some company or their whims, license or even electricity. It's there and accessible. ...Also, I like books. My Kindle's are convenient, but I don't fool myself that what's in them will always be there for me. Kindle is great for going away, travel somewhere, for books you don't want people to see in your bookshelves, and for reading in the dark. That's all. It's not real books, and books is the most important thing for humanity.
Do you sometimes suspect that you can feel the sentiments, values, talents and manners of your ancestors, many generations back, reflected in yourself?
