that 69 questions meme
Jan. 27th, 2006 11:42 amGacked from
brightest_blue and
azewewish.
But I am a subversive soul and found the original questionnaire too a) boring, b) too US-centred, c) too yes/no question-centred (how boring is a list of 'yeses' and 'noes'), and d) too long.
So, of course, I had to do it because I should be writing an article today whose deadline is, you've guessed it, MONDAY, ack horror. So, of course, I need to do a meme.
But I also need to subvert it so this is not going to be 69 questions and it's also not the original 69 questions and I apologise to the person who originally devised this meme for messing with her concept.
1. Initials?
LS-V
2. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
Schiller. Martin Luther (not King, but the Protestant!).
4. Favorite Vegetable?
Why, celery, of course. *waves at
badgermonkey (Oh, this takes me back and will anybody even get it?)
5. Are you allergic to anything?
Metafandom (meow; I never let go, do I?)
6. Are you bisexual? Discuss.
I am so totally straight I need to make a post about this sometime. By totally straight I mean: in a room full of 10 middling men, I will likely find somebody to lust after even mildly. Men will have to be phenomenally ugly or vile to put me off; I can see redeeming features in many men. Out of 100 people I've lusted for in my life, 97 have been men. I lust for a woman about once every five years. I discovered the love for boys at the age of, hm, five.
P.S. Make that 95 men. I just thought of some more women.
10. What nation-states have you lived in for longer than 8 months each?
West-Germany (united Germany: not); Indonesia; Australia; United States of America; United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
11. Name something physical you like about yourself.
Nostrils.
12. Something non-physical?
Tin hat.
13. Do you have any pets?
Yes. (well, it is a yes/no question)
16. Are you bipolar?
My feet point to the South Pole and my tin hat points to the North Pole, the crown of my head points to that great pole in the sky, and my left elbow points to the Polish neighbours down the road.
Definitely quadripolar.
20. Has anyone ever sang or played for you personally?
No one has ever sang for me but they may have sung for me.
24. Have you ever white water rafted?
Yes!
26. Are you racist?
Oh but of course; 'tis inevitable, given the quadri-polar tin hattery.
43. Do you speak any other language other than english?
Yes.
43a. Name the language/s.
German, Italian, bad French.
43b. What languages can you read?
English, German, Italian, French, Dutch. With a dictionary: Spanish. Very slowly with a dictionary: Czech.
43c. Name some Hindi words you learned while watching subtitled Bollywood movies.
dil = heart; pyar = love; janimun = darling; kuch kuch = something; kuch nahi = nothing; hota hai = is happening; dil se = from the heart; tik hai = okay.
48. What's something that really annoys you?
Metafandom (this is going to run and run, isn't it)
49. What are some things you really like?
You lot, you Friends lot! *g*
51. Have you ever surfed?
Yes. The net.
65. If you were working on a pirate ship, what would you most likely be?
Depp's dame.
68. Speaking of 69: Have you ever engaged in such a one?
Hoho, yes.
69. Have you ever taken a roadtrip?
I do not know what an automobile is. I live on the planet Zorgeedorp.
omg, I need to write my article!!!!!
