The exception being fashion. I nearly got an X100 for that street style job, but 35mm wouldn't cut it, too much distortion, and you lose that depth of field when doing a full length. So I got a compact with zoom. But otherwise 35 ftw. Allows you to get pissed up and still get results.
Never going to win awards mind, but does the job. And having a lens not to "pro" looking, so when down the pub people aren't freaked out.

35mm is definitely the focal length for most things.
Pretty much everything I do now is with that or the crop equivalent.
@gav yeah, I'd pull the background a bit. Contrast/saturation/wb looks good tho.
