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

[varadia]

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.

I think I believe in an incredible amount of intrigue and fascination and curiosity with another person.

Love, to me, seems too deeply rooted in knowing who the other person is to really happen at first sight.

Maybe someday something will happen to change my mind.

If any one thing from mythology was real, what would you want it to be?

[jothra]

Oh man. Hrm.

I certainly wouldn't want any gods and goddesses, the little buggers. I love dragons so much, but I have a feeling they'd get extinct pretty quick.

So I'll pick...witches. The real kind, not warts and green skin. The ones who don't cast lightning bolts and throw fireballs, but no one dares cross them anyway.

...or unicorns. Because they are beautiful and wonderful and clever enough to probably not get caught.

Do you like your name?

[varadia]

I didn't used to. I wanted something dramatic, or romantic, or something that fit in better.

Now I can't imagine being someone not Lynne. It'd be weird.

Have you ever wondered where the turning point in your life was? And if so, where would you like it to have been?

[jothra]

I know what one of them was. Dropping out of college after less than two years to come home with pretty severe depression. That taught me a few things about myself I wasn't very pleased to know.

So I tried to change some! Didn't work out too badly. But I would have liked the turning point to be when I went to London in high school.

I should have ditched the tour, stayed in England and lived with several eccentric students in a garret somewhere.

Ever practiced a martial art? Snarking doesn't count.

I did a little Tang Soo Do for a couple months. Never got anywhere with it, sadly enough.

What are your feelings about cows?

[jothra]

I like to eat cows. I think they are mostly stupid and smelly and good to make leather jackets with.

...

The little ones are sort of cute, though. Also I approve of milk.

Did you ever make friendship bracelets in grade school? Alternitavely, did you wear snap bracelets?

[varadia]

I did both! My friendship bracelets were horrifying things, as I had then (and still have now) no sense of color aesthetics.

Snape bracelets were great fun. But I snapped mine so often they mostly broke or inverted and would not completely retract. It was depressing.

If you could be a Henson puppet, would you be one of the ones from the Muppet Show, or Sesame Street, and who?

[maxwellsdemon02]

(Too lazy to sign out of RP journal...) I would totally be one from the Muppet Show. They get to make beter jokes.

-dude, wait. Can I be one of the Fireys from Labyrinth? Being able to take off and reattach your limbs sort of rules.

Can you speak another language besides English? Which ones would you want to learn?
