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. My first discovery upon attempting to answer the sock question is that fact that I don't actually have any interesting socks. They are either white or tan or black or golden-toe.... Clearly I feel no desire in my life to draw attention to my feet.

2. I will bring them forth some time, when I actually get them all sorted and put in place place togther, rather being 'seeded' all over the place.

3. I would be a collapable top-hat... all full of pretenscious glory, but also easily squashed into a more amusing form (luckily).

4. This song called "Angel Eyes"? I think it was also stuck in my roomate's head and it was driving him insane, but I suspect that was because I played it especially loudly on my speakers...

5. evil killers of paper bags that poop!

6. Books or food? Books. Sleep? Books? Heat exhaustion? Books. Heaven? well, if heaven doesn't have books, I don't want any part of it.

7. Book Genres.... This is a tough one. Normally I would say Sci-fi, but I've found that there is an abnormally large amount of suffering in sci-fi. I think I'd go with humorous fantasy.

8. Assuming my personality is held seperate from my memories, I think I would keep a memory of a satori.


9.I guess on a basic level I'm good at neuroscience. Neuroscience is cool because it greatest internal mystery that we have. There much out there in the world that is mysterious, but we barely know ourselves. We used to think that there was a special ether that flowed through our veins that controled our bodies, or that drilling holes in our head made us closer to the spirits! Even today the questions are endless. Also, I suspect in time the key to immortality lies with the brain. We know how to fix also every system in our bodies... all except the nervious system. Once we know how to keep that healthy, what can prevent us from living forever?

10. Taiwan is not part of China.

11. Hrm I guess I found your journal when you told me about it? I suspect that's what happened ;P I continue reading becuase I am curious and a bit of of a lurker. ^_^ Oh and a friend too. That's a big part.
