theferrett has recently made a post where he asks people to ask him... well, whatever they feel like asking. I must admit, I pulled a little bit of an LJ-ho stunt ("what do you think of me based on my LJ?", heh), but I have also asked a couple of actual questions.I envy him, not just because a simple offer to answer questions has gotten him 70 comments (at least 35 of which have to be someone else, possibly more), but because people actually took him up on it. Damnit, I want to be asked questions!
Please? It can be like an early birthday present. ;)
And I will answer anything, so make sure you want to know.

Date: 2003-08-12 09:24 am (UTC)What one memory would you most like to forget, for reasons of acute and ear-burning embarassment? Just like Immortals though, there can be only one, Alex of the Many Answers. ;>)
Huuuuuu... Oh. Right. That Sunday... because of HORRIBLY EMBARRASSING offhand comments by Patrick's mother... *scary!*
Is there a food that you refuse to eat on principles, rather than actually disliking it? Which is it, and what trauma resulted in this sad state of affairs?
Wait, people don't eat foods that they like? Who are these people, and can I put them out of their misery?
So, what kind of changeling would I be then? And why does it make sense, hunh? 'Splain 'splain! *bounce*
Seelie for sure; probably a Boggan, since Redcaps are scary (you aren't, though the "will eat anything" fits) and Sluagh are too quiet (you laugh far too much ;). And it makes sense because Changelings have to avoid Banality, something you excel at, Mr. Randompants.
Of the foreign countries you've visited, where you most like to plonk permanently, and whycome?
Italy, though I'd DIE because I'd never work - I'd just go to museums and churches constantly. I love the language, the art, the music, the Colosseum, and if the religion weren't so... religious, I'd love it too.
Geeky questions! :D
Date: 2003-08-12 11:20 am (UTC)1) How'd you end up being into anime?
2) How did you discover LARP?
3) What made you want to go into Psychology?
4) Any thoughts on where you want to live when you get out of school?
Re: Geeky questions! :D
Date: 2003-08-12 11:47 am (UTC)Grade 4. Serena used to draw Sailormoon pictures, and it was on TV, and so I just got sucked in. (I was an obsessive fangirl for a really long time too, though I expanded my horizons a bit. ;)
2) How did you discover LARP?
Joyee and I got talking about roleplaying after Philosophy one night. That's how I got introduced to Comfy people, too.
3) What made you want to go into Psychology?
Abnormal Psych, in particular, fascinates me. All the weird things people tell themselves or believe or convince themselves of. It's just interesting.
4) Any thoughts on where you want to live when you get out of school?
Not sure, really. I'm pretty much a city-dweller, though more suburban than downtown, really. Waterloo is good, being as I'll never REALLY get out of school ;) Professional Student, ho! But I like the Toronto/Waterloo area of Ontario. I can always travel other places if I want.

2) Best yaoi friends (Can't be Ace/Pat, due to Ace's request)
XD Sean E. and Danny! (Chantal will get the joke. ^^) Um, Simon is definitely the gayest -close- friend (paired with Doterman would be hysterical)... Otherwise, Marq and his boyfriend.
3) Fave fanfic
Hmm... tough call. I haven't read much fanfic lately, but I was a big fan of Irresistable Poison and Protective Bonds (both Harry/Draco fics).
4) Favourite comic or manga
A single favorite? o_o *plonk* I'll give you my top three... Those being Tokyo Babylon, Fables, and, recently, Confidential Confessionals.
5) Best photo?
Of me, or of other people? ;) This is the cutest picture ever. Of me, I don't know. I don't keep a lot of pictures of myself.

2) What defines your geekiness?
Not sure. There are many and varied aspects to my geekiness, so to pick one alone is difficult. Probably the fact that I hang out with other geeks.

Largo, Tanya Huff, Terry Pratchett
4) Tell me why I feel like asking questions regarding geekdom.
'cause it's what brings us together! Whee!

You are each on your own ray of light, and you are traveling directly towards each other... now, with all that background applied, which friend did you pick to be on the light game of chicken with you??
Patrick, because he'd probably be the only one willing to play chicken.
Which came first, the chicken, or the egg??
Mmm, tasty chicken. (Egg.)
What is your personal definition of love??
... or friendship??
"Comfort" ;) Friendship is something you share with people that you're comfortable enough to share your life with, ups or downs (hopefully more ups), and a lover is the same except with sex added. So "comfort" and "comfort with sex. Like sexual healing". ;)
Why did the pirate go into the bar with a steering wheel down his pants??
"Yarr, because it be drivin' me nuts!"
What is your favorite aminal?? (no that is not a typo :P )
Kittens! Like stray cats, nyo!
What question would you like to be asked most, but haven't yet??
Sexy ones.
If you had control of the entire planet, what would you do first??
Make ecology such that it could perpetually be between 23-28 C, but everything on Earth could still live comfortably, reproduce, and be lush and verdant. :D

And that's where I come in, my dear. ;-) Or, at least, I'll try. I'm a perv, but I'm certain you know this.
So. I hear you like women. When did you realise it? [and you can delete this if I'm sharing too much. *looks around*]
Favourite female celebrity based purely on looks?
Underwear: simple, shiny, or "underwear?" Bonus points for an opinion - or several - on thongs.
Loss of virginity: liberating or traumatizing? [that's honestly all I'm asking for; if you've not yet, what you think it will be]
What's the kinkiest thing you've ever done [and yes, I DO want to know]?
Aaaand, because I have to go to bed right quick, I only have one more question, and it's the Ho-Question: "What do you think of me?" [be honest, please. *smiles*]

Date: 2003-08-14 06:30 am (UTC)If there's anyone on here that DOESN'T know I like women, I'll be horribly shocked. XD
Grade 9 was when I started coming out to people... but I realized in about the middle of grade eight.
Favourite female celebrity based purely on looks?
Julia Stiles. Followed by Jennifer Connelly.
Underwear: simple, shiny, or "underwear?" Bonus points for an opinion - or several - on thongs.
Underwear. Thongs are buttfloss and I have no idea how people can wear them comfortably, or think they are sexy, because picking a piece of string out of your asscrack is supremely unsexy.
Loss of virginity: liberating or traumatizing? [that's honestly all I'm asking for; if you've not yet, what you think it will be]
Uh... well, can't say for sure (hasn't happened yet), but for Patrick's benefit as he's reading over my shoulder, we'll go with liberating.
What's the kinkiest thing you've ever done [and yes, I DO want to know]?
I am so vanilla. *sad*
"You're like the poster children for Dawson's Creek! Why is it always the innocent-looking ones that are the freaks?!"
Probably being tied up. I enjoy that far too much for my own good.
Aaaand, because I have to go to bed right quick, I only have one more question, and it's the Ho-Question: "What do you think of me?" [be honest, please. *smiles*]
I think that you are super super cool. I really enjoy reading your LJ and roleplaying accounts and such, and I think we'd get along really well if we ever met in real life.

Date: 2003-08-14 07:19 am (UTC)They prove the DFO knew the quotas were too high, cost the East Coast their fish. (Then take 'em to court, I believe.)
It was a case of /extreme/ mismanagement. I have as many issues with the way it was dealt with after as anyone else, but the fact is, if the small scale fishers hadn't pushed for the quotas to be changed (leading to the closure), it may very well have collapsed even sooner/even worse. It was an attempt at stewardship by the little guys that got screwed over a government that kept fudging the figures to keep the trawlers happy. But in the end, the government couldn't differentiate between the two groups (which does make sense, but it sucks for the ones that tried to DO something about the problem) and had to shut out both the ones that caused it and those that tried to stop it.
I've got a good book on environmental cases in the 20th century (called something like that) with a big chapter dedicated to the East Coast fishery. I'll try and remember to bring it with me to Ottawa so I can lend it to you. :) It was a really interesting case, it's just the politics of what happened after (how does the government deal with all these people once it's cost them their livelihoods) that made the controvery worse - really, they're two seperate issues.

Would you prefer to live with the people you have now for the rest of your life or want to just start fresh?
Do you miss high school?
If you could have an orgy with anybody, dead or alive (they would end up alive for the purposes of this because we're magical faeries who enjoy sex and can do whatever we want *cackles*) who would it be with??

Date: 2003-08-19 09:48 am (UTC)In what sense? In a oh-my-god-they're-going-to-die-and-I-can-only-save-one kind of way? Or just for spending time with? Or in a "we'll disown you if you don't stop seeing Patrick" way?
The first... well, it's three people (or four, depending on the family) over one, so... family. The second, Patrick. The third... eh... it would really depend which side of the family was doing the disowning.
Patrick over your friends?
Again, context? For most things, probably Patrick, because a) I am horny and b) he counts as a friend. In life-or-death situations, friends.
Would you prefer to live with the people you have now for the rest of your life or want to just start fresh?
i.e. live with my parents for the rest of my life, or live with the friends I live with now? For the former, start fresh. For the latter, you guys and the Waterloo people are good ;)
Do you miss high school?
I miss my memories of high school. I wouldn't go to Turner now if I had to save my life.
If you could have an orgy with anybody, dead or alive (they would end up alive for the purposes of this because we're magical faeries who enjoy sex and can do whatever we want *cackles*) who would it be with??
Steven, Joyee, Patrick, SimonB, Julia Stiles, Heath Ledger, Ed Norton and Brad Pitt (for Simon), the hot girl from the bus, and anyone else I saw that caught my eye that day.
