1. You have a chance to spend the afternoon with any one person from history. Who do you spend it with, and why?
i was just telling somebody the other day that i would have liked to meet douglas adams. from his essays he seemed like a really thoughtful person with a brilliant way with words. people who knew him spoke highly of him as well. i learned about his existence like a week before he died. :(
2. Were you a bigger ‘Poke’mon’ or ‘Digimon’ fan, or were you too cool for that stuff?
i liked pokemon for the cards and the gameboy games. i still have my 10-year old pokemon from sapphire on my 3ds. :)
3. Have you ever traveled to another continent? Or do you prefer being home?
loaded question! just because i've never traveled to another continent doesn't mean i wouldn't like to. the farthest i've been from my home country was cozumel.
4. What’s the absolute worst film/book you’ve ever seen/read?
there's a kind of film that's universally terrible, but i can't stop watching them on netflix: american films about weird environmental disasters. cringeworthy pseudo-science, shoehorned romance, unsubtle use of stock footage, and ham-fisted aesops about the hubris of mankind.
5. Let’s say we all got into Hogwarts…what house are you in?
ravenclaw or hufflepuff, it's a toss-up.
6. Have you even been given a bouquet of flowers?
well no, but that's probably because flowers are fragile, take up a lot of space, and are good for like two days before they start to rot...
7. Someone has wronged you, do you live and let live, or do you swear vengeance?
i tend to let things go, as getting vengeance is a hassle. i might avenge someone else, though.
8. Are beards lovely or foul?
a beard is more about what the person wearing it wants than what i want. although like all things i have my preferences regarding texture and style.
9. What is the one type of person you see that makes you inwardly (or outwardly) groan?
people who blame the effects of toxic gender norms on feminists.
10. Do we all spend too long on Tumblr?
yes. yes we do.
11. What is your favourite mug/cup/glass/drinking implement? Bonus points for pictures.
i have this cool cut crystal goblet, but it's at my parents' house.
