6. Do you have any strange phobias?
I tend to have a very low discomfort threshold about certain sorts of topics. If I find something, like, mildly unpleasant to read about but not extremely unpleasant, I'll read through a huge amount of it. This is a kind of compulsion – in fact I've had to stop myself from purchasing books online I thought might contain it, because I feel myself unable to resist once I see the words.
(This is related to, I think, to why I get a lot of joy from reading about some terrible, ugly things happening to some wretched person and wondering how they're going to respond to it. [As I think I said once?)
(This also happens with people, actually, since "thinking about terrible things" is a mild discomfort and most people seem like terrible things indeed.)
3. Would you rather be cold or hot?
Hot all the time or cold all the time, though obviously cold would be nicer … or perhaps not really either, since it's difficult to think clearly in hot weather (I think this is something about the particular receptors in my brain that react to heat). I haven't tried super-cold temperatures yet but they sound like they could be good for this, since I think if I were to be exposed to the worst temperature imaginable that could really knock me out.
