Aye, and I'm going to add that, very much like baklava, I don't get really angry. Call it what you want, but either I laugh at it, avoid it or cry. I've been taught that anger is useless and so I don't get it, unless perhaps in very special circumstances.
Though, since I'll probably never meet a single one of you, I'll just tell a little sob story.
Closest thing to angry I got was a few weeks before my brother died, about a year and two months ago. Essentially, my brother was thirty and he had done nothing with his life, nothing whatsoever. He couldn't hold a job and he had nowhere to go to except his mother since he now had cancer. I was very angry at him, when I realised how he wasted his life and how he leeched from his mother now. The deal was that he asked money from his father, but his father (we have different fathers) died recently, so he lost his source of income, so to say (my mother of course, could not refuse). I got kind of angry at the lack of respect towards us. So that all kind of boiled down together, when my mother asked him to be more respectful and tolerant or else he could just leave the apartment until he learned how to behave. He got really angry at that. So that night I kind of stood next to my mother, while they were trading insults. I threatened to call the police, because that seemed to be the way to get him off our backs.
Then my mother asked me not to. I was really frustrated with that, felt powerless, felt really angry that she allowed this, that he needed to have his final moments like that, that the world seemed like bloody hell, that this was in one way or another justified by some alien logic (You know, "God, the world is unjust!" that feeling).
To be honest, though, no one was hurt, afterwards.
I'm sorry corribus, it was either this or that time I was twelve.

Man...
Corribus just picked wrong people for the question I guess. Should've asked Will, Kipshahshszhz, Joonas and other action heroes of HC.
Ten years from now, eh?
Well, for one, I have all the time I need to grow an awesome beard by then.
About other stuff...
WISHFUL THINKING:
I'll gather my mates and we'll spend a whole afternoon staring at boobs in order to find a cure for breast cancer. After we succeed, the sole rewards that we'll ask from mankind would be legalizing piracy and reviving rock'n'roll. After our demands are met, we'll tour the world rocking insanely hard and feeding the kids in Africa, making Bono challenge me to a chocolate wrestling duel to the death. He'll however pussy out in the last minute and send his elite bodyguard chick (which incredibly resembles Liv Tyler) to wrestle me instead. I'll of course charm her into submission, the slick dawg I am, and then take over Bono's harem as he probably doesn't use it anyway (I'll also sue him for being the most unirish Irishman on the planet, and then drop the case after he learns his lesson, becomes cool again and starts a war with England). Then I'll meet Christopher Walken and Sean Connery and together we'll open up a Steampunk Irish Pub on the shores of Jamaica, mixing coctails and playing live every Saturday.
WHAT MOST LIKELY WILL HAPPEN:
I'll get married to my gf and she'll brainwash me for the rest of my life (and force me to learn to drive, so she can find and get the undoubtedly dullest family car on Earth), which still won't be so bad as I'll still get laid occasionally. Other than that, I'll find a job (something related to computers or at least completely unrelated to lawyers) and - in the spare time between wittily replying to my wife's sarcastic remarks and raising a kid or two - write songs, have a gig every now and then (if my band doesn't fall apart in the meantime), say wrong things to the wrong people (and constantly get in trouble over showing no tendency of apologizing), learn zippo tricks and - of course - teach the kids how to play Heroes.
Bono's harem seems a bit far-fetched, but it'd be cool if I manage to feed some hungry kids while I'm at all this.
My next question goes to Omega.
You seem like a magnet for maniacs Your clients appear to be quite diverse and intriguing, could you tell us what's the most peculiar case you've ever had (or client, this last one excluded)?
If there's no fun answer to that one, you can always tell us what was your favourite childhood toy. That'll make us all go aww.

I can't really get into details too much, but my favorite client was a divorce client. This guy wants to be a cop. During the divorce hearing, the judge stated the case was contested because they were fighting over a "white-handled, serpentine blade." That's right. Fighting over one of those tacky swords you can find at an import store.
Anyways, my favorite moment was a short exchange when he came into my office one day.
Client: "Hey, I want to let you know I moved out and I'm living somewhere else."
Me: "OK. What's your new address?"
Silence. 30 seconds later.
Client: "I don't know."

Sorry, sorry, I've been a little busy. Marriages aren't going to break themselves up on their own you know. 
OK. Not a very serious question for Kek, but if you had the talent and ability to make to be an Olympic level athlete, which event would you like to participate in and why?

My first instinct would be to make lame jokes about communism and sexuality and say:
"Women's synchronized swimming. It's a team sport, takes tons of practise and requires you to be a woman. In this sport we find that the individual is weak and that we must trust the strength of the commune and work hard to truly achieve greatness. As a woman, I'd be able to make a side job of posing nude for the rising of the morale of the people."
Afterwards, I'd feel a bit afraid to go to sleep, because due to some odd strand of karma I might wake up as a member of the communist party and an olympic level female synchronized swimmer with a nude photoshoot session to go to and I wouldn't want that to happen.
Therefore, my answer is answer is: I'd be a Marathon runner. It requires lots of endurance, both physical and mental. With that kind of endurance I could go on all night. 
My question is for veco: If you were surrounded by a Jaguar, a lion, a cougar, a lawyer and The Irate Gamer, how would you escape?

When I was a lawyer-candidate I had a hearing in a divorce case, both parents wanted to have custody above the 2 common kids.
Judge: How many children do you have?
My client: 2....No!, sorry, 3, I have a child from my former marriage.
Judge: Could you tell me the children's birthdays ?
My client: Yes, of course. First one is April something in 1996, no, hmm, let me see, May 17 in 1997.
Judge: Are you sure?
My client: Yes, of course, but may I check my papers? ....
Guess the outcome..

I wouldn't - right now I'd roundhouse kick the lawyer in the nads, rip his arms off and while the kitties devour what remains of him I'd take those arms and beat the irate gamer to a mushy pulp. After that I'd grab the cougar by it's tail, spin it around, slam into the lions face and push them off the cliff. Next I'd release a primal roar from the dephts of my heart and while the jaguar ****'s itself looking for a tree to escape on I grab it in full nelson and slam into a rock breaking it's neck. Then I push the remaining corpses into the pit and spill white phosphorous over it.
