Quick, hide behind the couch, it's another one of those damned memes

Three factors are working against me: 1). I am a sheep, 2). I am at work and horribly bored and not wanting to write my monthly report, and 3). I am insanely curious and already wonder what sorts of questions people might want to ask.

So.

Ask me a question about anything--fandom, real life, music, vegetables, etc--and I will answer you and then ask YOU a question. The whole process could be repeated if anyone wants to keep it up. If this works, by the end we could know each other so well we're sick of each other and have to quit one another for a while.

You find redeeming qualities sad?

And. Um. That's difficult. The redeeming qualities of pop tend to be the songs that shouldn't be pop and yet are. The moments when I go... wow! The masses show unexpected taste!

And I don't mean to be so snobby, but there is such utter dross about. When you have three versions of the same song remixed beyond belief in the charts it just makes me want to hit things.

(And I'm glad it's not noticeable. I am paranoid).

Do you have siblings?

*eyes previous post* I think the sad is a typo? Maybe I stuck the middle bit inside of a previous bit of text. Huh. *stares a little more*

Anyway. I have a younger brother. He is 17, and he plays crazy crazy awesome guitar, and he wants to go to college for music. I wish him a lot of luck. We suspect that, at least for a while, he might end up living in my basement when he gets older.

But he is awesome on guitar, so there is hope!

Do you ever think that if you were walking in someone else's shoes life would be easier? And then immediately afterward do you stare at yourself and go 'WTF am I thinking?' other people's shoes do not fit at all!?

I sometimes envy. Envy and resentment is a character flaw of mine, most certainly. I think life would be easier if I were someone else, someone with more money, maybe. And then I realise that I kinda like me, actually. I have bad points, but I kinda like me. Just. The money would still be good. So someone else's shoes, if they are expensive, and if I don't have to give them back.

Whut is that icon?

[varadia]

It's one of the Sandman covers--possibly of the Wake? Someone made it for me from one of those 'comment and I shall make an icon of your interests' memes.

It's definitely Morpheus, though. *eyes it* Or maybe Daniel. I forget the context of that cover.

Have you ever wished you were from a different ethnic background?

[miscellanny.livejournal.com]

Not really, no. I don't tend to think about it very much, which is quite possibly a direct result of the fact that I am white.

I have wished to be of a different sexuality.

*shrugs*

Would you rather be scared or embarrassed?

[varadia]

I think I'd rather be scared, because in the face of fear I eventually get fed up and say 'bugger all this for a lark' and DO something about it.

Embarrassment makes me crumble.

Do you ever envy gymnasts and martial artists the incredible things they can do with their bodies? Would you want to be a ninja?

[miscellanny.livejournal.com]

I envy and admire that, yes. I watch things like the matrix and think I MUST GET IN SHAPE and then I watch something else and get distracted. I'm amazingly influenced by what I read and see, but only ever for a few minutes/hours/days. I suspect I really am quite distressingly shallow.

What does your muse look like?

(It doesn't have to be a person.)
