the actor's studio meme

i took this off about every little thing. lis' answers had really inspired me to do this meme myself, but it took me days because the first question really really really stumped me.

What is your favorite word?
wtf. it succintly conjures up an emotion that says so much in just 3 letters.

What is your least favorite word?
sorry.
meticulous comes a close second.

What turns you on [creatively, spiritually or emotionally]?
having someone share my exact view on any topic. if he's a man, it's a bonus.

What turns you off?
pussy-ness. come on, be a man!

What is your favorite curse word?
the f-word. it's a genuine classic. and those who are of my generation should know about the email/article proclaiming the use of it as a verb, a noun, an adjective etc. i only use it at moments of great distress.

What sound or noise do you love?
the ringing bell of the ice-cream man as he cycles from door to door. unfortunately, he no longer exists.

What sound or noise do you hate?
more than half the songs they play on the radio. kids wailing. tone-deaf singers. any high-pitched sound that makes my teeth go on edge.

What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
bimbotic celebrity. it just looks so fun.
on a more realistic basis, english teacher in a non-english speaking country and/or owner of a knit cafe

What profession would you not like to do?
anything that requires me to sell what i don't believe in. insurance salesperson and personal financial consultant would come under that description.

If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
don't worry, you don't ever have to go back there.

stupid halloween worry

heh...i know this is dumb, but when you are bored, anything goes...

i read that last year, zouk's door-bitches/door-bastards made some people pay cover if they felt that the costume was not up-to-scratch.

i wonder if mine would pass.

although, with the amount of money and effort i put into it, if they try to make me pay cover, i won't let them go without a tongue-lashing.

ok, that just confirmed it, i really need my eyes. and probably lots of white paste. (and straw! i need a straw broomstick to tear apart!)

this is halloween, halloween, halloween...

i haven't been this excited about a costume since...

wait...have i ever been this excited about a costume? probably not.

anyway, checklist:

cloth - check
hair - check
eyes - pending
footwear

i can't wait.

also, because i am bored and this seemed accurate:

Your Personality Profile

You are dependable, popular, and observant.
Deep and thoughtful, you are prone to moodiness.
In fact, your emotions tend to influence everything you do.

You are unique, creative, and expressive.
You don't mind waving your freak flag every once and a while.
And lucky for you, most people find your weird ways charming!

stop the invitations!

everytime some new online community fad comes on, i get a whole bunch of emails inviting me to join.

now, i don't particularly mind if the one doing the inviting is a friend (not that i would join still).

but when the person inviting is someone whom i haven't spoken to in years, i think there is a serious problem.

i think the fact that we haven't spoken in years is a clear sign that we are not friends. so why would i want to "add you as a friend"?

or did you want to make it obvious that you just invited your whole address book?
