Spooooooky. I was just chatting with Jonathan about this the other day. His preference is for Vanity Fair's Proust Questionnaire. (He doesn't think he'll ever be tapped for it. I think he will.) Mine is for this one. How handy is it that it suddenly appeared, eh?
1. What is your favorite word?
onomatopoeia
2. What is your least favorite word?
c**t (I *HATE* that word. And if you don't know which word I'm referring to, well, know that the Brits use it quite a bit, but we American women hate it. That should give you a clue.)
3. What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
conversation, reading, simply paying attention to the little things, debate, friendship, love
4. What turns you off?
selfishness, endless rationalization, addiction, looking down one's nose at other people for no good reason.
5. What is your favorite curse word?
m*therf**ker (I don't use it very often, but it is just so good in its nastiness)
6. What sound or noise do you love?
an orchestra tuning their instruments and warming up
7. What sound or noise do you hate?
a lawnmower at seven a.m. on a Sunday morning
8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Something where I'd be well-paid but wouldn't have to work a lot. Hmmmm. I know! I'll be an actor!
9. What profession would you not like to do?
garbage person, mortician
10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
Oh, good you're here. You look somewhat surprised. You were expecting, perhaps, something different? Well, I know, but you're such a lively person, we couldn't have you spending all that time in Purgatory, so come on in and put your feet up. You've earned it!
