featherynscaleTaken without scruple from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zylch and adapted to my own (nefarious) purposes,
1. What is the geekiest part of your music collection?
My whole collection is pretty geeky. For most hot geek-on-geek action, though, I do have an mp3 of OKGO covering They Might Be Giants' "Kiss Me, Son of God".
2. What do you eat when you raid the fridge late at night?
Frozen things, like unto ice cream, or even unto a fruit bar.
3. What is your secret guaranteed weeping movie?
*shrug* I cry in movies all the time. Anything epic makes me cry.
4. If you could have plastic surgery, what would you have done?
Adamantium skeletal reinforcement. I don't know, I actually think elective plastic surgery is really bizarre and vaguely creepy.
5. Do you have a completely irrational fear?
Yup. Fear of breeding. And as much of a fan of the idea that you have to face your fear and move through it as I am, I think I'll be content to leave that one right where it sits, thank ya.
6. What is the little physical habit that gives away your insecure moment?
Eyes widen, blinking increases. Of course, this is also how I react to several other mood states, so it's not conclusive.
7. Are you a pyromaniac?
No, I can stop setting things on fire whenever I want.
8. Do you have too many love interests?
How can you have too many love interests? I mean, as long as I can still keep track of who they are and what they're doing and manage to spend time with them all, that's not at all too many.
9. Do you know anyone famous?
Not really. I know some BNPs, but I don't think that's the same thing.
10. Describe your bed:
Bouncy.
11. Spontaneous or planned?
When life gives you an either/or choice, take both. I adapt at need.
12. Who should play you in a movie about your life?
Johnny Depp, in drag.
13. Do you know how to play poker?
Of course. All vices are mine.
14. What do you carry with you at all times?
I generally try to keep my ID and my ATM card in my pockets, but other than that, just the earrings in my ears.
15. What do you miss most about being a kid?
Saturday morning cartoons.
16. Are you happy with your given name?
Not really, but I have yet to pick out anything to replace it with.
17. How much money would it take to get you to give up the Internet for one year?
I don't know that I'd make that deal. I'm fairly addicted to my net friends.
18. What color is your bedroom?
Grey walls, grey carpet.
19. What was the last song you were listening to?
Some bastardized R&B version of a Police song that was on the radio in the kitchen when I was heating up my lunch. It was fairly awful.
20. Have you ever been in a play?
A few. Mostly behind the backdrop, though.
21. Have you ever been in love?
Of course.
22. Do you talk a lot?
No, but I type a lot, sometimes.
23. Do you like yourself and believe in yourself?
I generally like myself. And I must believe in myself, or else I wouldn't exist.
24. Do transient, homeless, or starving people sometimes annoy you?
Not as a rule, no.
25. Do you consider yourself to be a nice person?
Not particularly, but I do try to manage fair and sympathetic.
26. Do you spend more time with your girlfriend/boyfriend or your friends?
I live with my partners, so it follows that I spend more time with them.
27. What is your ideal marriage location?
I defer tozylch's answer, as she says it better than I can: I think it's somewhere on Point Moot.
28. Which musical instrument do you wish you could play?
Bagpipes, of course.
29. Favorite fabric?
I'm very fond of velvets, but anything pettable will do.
30. Something you love and hate?
Simultaneously? Ice cream. You bastard, why must you be so tasty and make me so ill?
31. What kind of bedding do you use?
Jersey sheets and a cotton comforter in the summer, flannel sheets and a down comforter in a flannel cover in the winter.
32. Do you tell your friends about your sex life?
Sure. Only when it seems relevant, though.
33. What's the one language you want to learn?
Yoruba
34. How do you eat an apple?
Skin on, in crunchy bites.
35. What do you order at a bar?
Depends on the day: Stout beer or porter, hard cider, or a whiskey sour, in general.
36. Have you ever pierced your body parts?
Only a few. And the only ones that have stayed pierced are the earlobes, in the usual manner.
37. Do you have tattoos?
Just two.
38. Do you drive a stick?
Not by choice, no. I shared drive duties in the Druidmobile to New Orleans, but that was really enough of the manual transmission for me, thanks.
39. What's one trait you hate in a person?
Moral certainty.
40. What kind of watch(es) do you have?
I don't own a watch.
41. Most frivolous purchase?
Costumery, books in hardcover, and games.

Desserts, especially where caramel is involved.

Liquid ink pens with ball points.

47. What's the one car you will never buy?
anything larger than my current vehicle.
48. What kind of books do you like to read?
Sci-fi, fantasy, horror, history, alt-history, speculative history, lay science (I can't follow actual science), plays, math, philosophy, psychology, religion, mythology, and anything with monsters.
49. If you won the lottery, what would you do?
Quit my job and pay my debts off. Fix my car, and travel a lot.
50. Burial or cremation?
Cremation, which my family is dead-set against. Another reason to make a will even though I own nothing of value.
51. How many online journals do you read regularly?
Just LJ - I've usually got between 75-80 people on my friends list (though not all of them post regularly).
52. What's one thing you're a sore loser at?
I'm not, really. If I'm playing, I'm usually playing to play, as opposed to playing to win.
53. If you don't like a person, how do you show it?
I avoid being around them.
54. Do you cry in front of your friends?
