lol my mom does mine

nothing. probably. if you hide the body right.

1. Who was your favorite teacher in elementary/primary school and why?

Probably Ms. Saltman, my 4th grade Social Studies teacher, because she was really cool and smart and liked me and also her daughter was my fave babysitter so

2. Favorite dessert?

A tie between strawberry rhubarb pie and a really good cupcake

3. Which is scarier, ghosts or UFOs? No, you don’t get to say “neither”! What if they’re both chasing you!!!

I guess ghosts.  UFOs just feel illy to me but I watch a lot of SPN so ghosts are serious shit to me.

4. What’s your choice method of de-stressing after a long day? of being chased by ghosts and UFOs

Doing Killer Sudoku puzzles while listening to Spotify playlists

5. Which of the races from Middle Earth are you?

Umm, I've actually never seen or read anything from the LOTR franchise don't her me please

6. What is your character alignment? (on the lawful-chaotic, good-evil scale)

I know this one.  I'm neutral good.

7. What do you want for your birthday?

That's hard to say, because Christmas just happened and my birthday is in September.   Instead I will answer a slightly different question: What gifts do I want right now?  The answer is Urban Decay liquid eyeliner, pie, and the Icona Pop album

8. Is there a book or movie which you can definitively say changed your life or worldview?

Breakfast of Champions.

9. Alright mr. tough guy, you don’t think ghosts or UFOs are scary, what ARE you scared of?

Failure.  It's not a crippling fear or anything, it's not like I won't try because I fear I will fail.  I guess it's more a fear of not succeeding.

10. If you are a writerly sort, what’s one thing you really like about your own writing? If you’re not, pick your creative venture of choice, and tell me what you like about your work.

Okay as a comedy writer I suppose I like my... weirdness, I guess?  Like I like the jokes that are funny because they're just very esoteric.  I like my esotericism I suppose.

Okay my questions:

1. What would be your last meal?

2. How do you feel about really modern art?  Like the weird stuff? Like performance art nd Marcel Duchamp and all that?

3. What is your Meyer's Briggs personality type?  If you don't know, tell me something about your personality.

4. If it were up to you, what movie would win the Oscar for Best Picture this year? (it doesn't have to actually be nominated)

5. What's the best class you ever took?

6. What's your favorite commercial of all time?

7. What's a really cool animal that a lot of people haven't heard of?

8. What's the worst bug to get bitten/stung by?

9. What's the best of the low level national holidays? (Labor Day, MLK Day, Memorial Day, Veteran's Day, Arbor Day, etc)

10. Describe your favorite piece of jewelry.

Ahh, mine isn't like that! I think she just wants me to give her grandbabies which just... /ugh/ that's a whole other bag of shit

MY MOM DOES THAT TOO. And I'm like.. ugh I'm not even /that/ picky. Like, I'm sorry I want someone intelligent who respects me that I'm also attracted to.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN! I am so happy I did not really use my mom as a role model growing up when it comes to relationships, because this is my mother's morning schedule:

wake up at 5.30 - she sometimes does not start work until 12 but she still wakes up at this time

get the newspaper

prepare breakfast for her husband. fold the newspaper nicely to the table.

go wake up the husband, but not until the breakfast is ready and the tea is poured to the mug.

while the husband is having breakfast, look for his work clothes.

pack the husband's lunch.

wait until the husband leaves before maybe going back to sleep.

Hahaha, not JUST because. I know there have been a ton of anti-selfie articles lately and I didn’t want that.

i haven't seen this article. should I bother? Because I just posted a selfie because ia ctually felt kind of pretty and don't want to ruin that

Oh no it won't make you feel bad I just thought it could be better.

The article is very pro-selfie, and it mostly focuses on the celebrity selfie, and talks a little about how for non-celebrities, selfies can be about dressing up and putting your best face forward, which I think is all true, it just misses the whole part of selfies being a revolutionary tool to reclaim control of representation
