Random delurking day! (well, on my LJ at least)

aka, I was really bored and came up with random questions that I wanted to know about people. Feel free to answer wherever (but I would love to see the answers!).

1. Describe your strangest pair of socks



2. Can I see pictures of your bookshelves (or book stacks or piles or boxes)?



3. If you were a hat, what kind of hat would you want to be?



4. What's the worst song you've gotten stuck in your head before?



5. My rats: evil killers of paper bags, cute sleepy fuzzballs or embarrassingly tame yogie-drop eaters?



6. Books or food?



7. If you could live in a book, what genre would it belong to? How come?



8. Stealing from the movie Wonderful Life (also known as After Life): if you were told that you could only carry one memory with you into the afterlife, which would you choose?



9. What do you know a lot about that most people don't? Most people here should be most people, not most people in that field. I specify this because I know how badly I prevaricate when I'm asked about something that I'm good at. Or if you still feel weird, what do you know a lot about that I don't (I don't know about a lot of stuff)? Why is it cool? Tell me about it!



10. What random bit of trivia do you know?



11. And finally, the question I've always wanted to know the answer to but was too embarrassed to ask: how in the world did you find my LJ and how come you're still reading?

1. Describe your strangest pair of socks
Orange fuzzy microfiber. Very warm for slobbing around the house in winter. Also, orange.
2. Can I see pictures of your bookshelves (or book stacks or piles or boxes)?
I don't have a digital camera, but if I did it wouldn't help--I have double rows. You'd have to unload them to see everything. You could, of course, be permitted to unload if you were visiting.
3. If you were a hat, what kind of hat would you want to be?
Snazzy fedora.
4. What's the worst song you've gotten stuck in your head before?
Probably "Fish Heads."
5. My rats: evil killers of paper bags, cute sleepy fuzzballs or embarrassingly tame yogie-drop eaters?
All! But what is a yogie-drop?
6. Books or food?
Books. Except my book backlog is so huge, it won't come up.
7. If you could live in a book, what genre would it belong to? How come?
Super-future sf with all sorts of fabulous medical benefits.
8. Stealing from the movie Wonderful Life (also known as After Life): if you were told that you could only carry one memory with you into the afterlife, which would you choose?
Ooh, a tricky one. Some time when I felt like me, really strongly.
9. What do you know a lot about that most people don't?
Ceramics, of the ancient variety. Though I've probably forgotten a lot of that since college, I still go for ceramics first in a museum.
10. What random bit of trivia do you know?
Robert Silverberg used to write a lot of porn, which paid better than sf.
11. And finally, the question I've always wanted to know the answer to but was too embarrassed to ask: how in the world did you find my LJ and how come you're still reading?
coffee_and_ink recommended you to me. Books! Booksbooksbooks.
