Have you ever found yourself enjoying something you had previously scorned as a cliché? What was it?


View 502 Answers

There should be a word for what happens when you start off adopting something ironically and then end up gradually enjoying it until you can no longer claim irony anymore. Surely the angst arising from the issue must deeply affect the psyche of modern hipsters.

I mean, I'm not even a hipster and I am still confused over whether about 40% of the stuff that I like involves irony or not. For example, the other day I read about one third of a romance novel. Was it irony? I don't know.

Growing Up Cullen


This is one of my favorites despite all the safety rules they are breaking. Some people are just TOO HARDCORE for safety rules.

Anyway:

From Dr. Polidori's Lord Ruthven to Stephenie Meyer's Edward Cullen, the annals of vampire lore are filled with attractive, charming bloodsuckers. Which one would you most want to be bitten by?

This is a difficult question for me, because the books don't say how tall Jasper Hale is.

Have you ever read someone's private writings (journal, diary, email, letters, etc.) without their permission?


View 501 Answers

Never done it in real life, but occasionally I will find someone's really interesting LJ and read it, even if it's about personal/private things. Then I feel too guilty and stalkerish to friend them or anything because it would be weird and I'd know all their personal issues.

I have no idea if anyone else does this. LJ etiquette still confounds me for the most part.

Um. Well, let's just say if you ever want an exorcism done and need someone to provide the linguistic element, I'm the person to go to.

I could even probably help you with Japanese exorcisms as well, but I'd charge extra for that because Japanese spirits are fucking scary.

Writer's Block: Close Call

Accidents happen all the time, and often we walk away miraculously uninjured. What has been your closest call with avoiding serious harm in an accident?


View 503 Answers



One time I was standing in my rainy high school parking lot and was almost hit by another student's car. Luckily a mysterious fellow student rescued me by blocking the vehicle with his body. It was really weird though! He didn't seem to get hurt at all! He must have superpowers or something.

This other time I was standing on a street corner in Seattle and almost got hit by a bus. Luckily this guy next to me pushed me away and got hit by the bus instead! I don't think he had superpowers though, because he got messed up pretty bad! Then I got taken to this weird hospital where all the doctors kept inappropriately talking about their convoluted personal lives. It was bizarre!

Why do you think teenagers are involved in more car crashes than any other age group?

Lack of frontal lobe development and future time orientation makes them unable to fully grasp the consequences of their actions. This is why it is probably unwise to make major life decisions before the age of 25 without discussing it with someone older first. Or else you risk a lifetime of constantly wanting to go back in time and punch your younger self in the face.

Do you ever have recurring dreams? If so, are they good dreams or nightmares?


View 501 Answers

Those "my teeth are falling out" nightmares. I've been told they are common.

I think that what sets them apart for me is that they're so vivid: when they're happening, I never have even the slightest idea that I might be dreaming. I've actually had teeth dreams where I've thought to myself "Wow, I dreamed about my teeth falling out and now it's actually happening. WHAT ARE THE ODDS" and yet still haven't caught on.

I thought "Hey Man, Nice Shot" by Filter was saying "Hey Man, Nice Shirt." The song seemed a lot less cool after I found out the real words.

What celebrity would you consider changing your sexual identity for?


View 503 Answers



WELL DUH.

Mostly it's a sexual identity thing. Although I also kind of want her to bake me cupcakes. Maybe it's because my mother never loved me.

ETA: Also, when I went to look for that picture I found out that there's no need for me to visit fandom_wank this week, because it had come to my own comm! Awesome!

German has a word for everything, like ohrwurm. Translated literally as "earworm" in English, it's the word for songs that get stuck in your head and won't go away. What earworm of a song do you most dread burrowing into your head?

Given my habit of absentmindedly singing along to whatever is in my head at the moment, I would have to say any of Trey Parker's ridiculously catchy songs. I remember a friend awkwardly shushing me in a convenience store once because I was singing 'Everyone has AIDS! AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS!!'

Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” He is believed to have called it his greatest literary work ever. Can you write a story in six words?

1. Create the skeletal remains of several gigantic, horror-inducing cephalopods and bury them under soon-to-be-construction sites around the world. Just to fuck with people.

2. Appear to Richard Dawkins in a vision. Tell him to wear more hats.

3. Create entire planet of small kittens wearing costumes. Then push it into black hole, before reanimating the kittens and being like 'just kidding'. Possibly film event and show to Richard Dawkins.
