Thanks a lot, I guess I was answering the previous comment and defending the use of "are your seriously..." to accommodate for the verb following since we can't do that if we say, "are you serious." Thanks.

You also reread my comment: that means I totaly agree with you, the answer is "seriously", not serious which is one the two suggestions of Noura.
