Memes!

Comment to this post. I will choose seven interests from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so others can play along.

From kisekinotenshi:

being sorta moderately hot - Blame mysticjuicer for this one. ;) I thought it was a hilarious interest and so, since I consider myself sorta moderately hot, adopted it. Now there are, I think, seven of us out there? XD

ethics - As in study thereof, specifically the applied ethics and moral psychology sub-branches (as described by Wikipedia). How flexible/relative is morality? And what ethical code do I ascribe to? (Can I even describe it as a code?) This is probably one of my better-loved areas of philosophy, because it doesn't make me crazy (free will vs. determinism) and actually has more depth [in my head] than "everyone's different!" (aesthetics).

good journalism - Who isn't interested in this? Okay, I guess "good" is a bit vague. Mostly this means I'm interested in important stories written without [too much? let's be honest here] bias.

great big sea - probably less than in the past, but sometimes you just want Newfoundlander boys singing sea shanties. ;)

insanity - I find mental illness to be really interesting? I mean, that's not really an in-depth thing, but why people are dysfunctional is... interesting? (Remember, I was a Psych major until my final year, and all Psych majors are just trying to figure out why WE'RE insane.)

jacqueline carey - I are fan of fantasy porn. And BDSM. And courtesans. And *coughcough*danielle*coughcough* ahem books. Okay, so that's really more "why the Kushiel series", since I didn't really like the other book by her I read started to read. But. Overall. Yay BDSM fantasy porn? I kind of want to be Phèdre.

nac mac feegles - They're wee. And Scottish barking mad. And can carry a cow like a tiny blue wave. And swear a lot. And drink! And they're already dead. What's not to like?

Look at that, you've gone and made me update my interests so there'd be a few more to pick from, which then inspired me to finally get around to updating my whole profile. All for a stupid meme! I hope you're proud of yourself. :D

YAY!

I should actually probably do a spring cleaning on my own profile, but I'm so very lazy.

Hee. At least yours is fairly informative. Mine was generic enough as to be almost pointless. Not to mention six years old, blah.
