Time to turn the spotlight on a new person. (Sorry for hogging the spotlight so long. I've been sick)

The spotlight turns and turns....and lands on eudaemonia! Come on down eudaemonia and see what you've won! *So Sorry for getting your name spelled wrong in the title of the thread. I copied it from the spotlight thread. Oops. My bad.*

You have won the chance to tell us more about you! Isn't that a great prize!:devil:
Here are the rules for those who wish to peruse them:

2. after a thread runs its course, the spotlighted HTer selects any person responding yes to this thread and creates the next thread.

edit: when you select someone, please PM him or her to let that person know.

3. whatever disagreements we may have with forumites, the spotlight thread is not a place for mockery. people may choose to share what they like, with the understanding that such sharing ought not to be ammunition for abuse.

Okay. First question.

How did you choose your name for Lit?

I swear, I did send a pm to this person. Maybe you can send a second one Silver and see if it meets with more success?
 
i'll give it a shot. i'm really surprised that nobody else has any questions, though. ?!

Not familiar with her very much, so I was hoping to get ideas from some of the other questions.

*oh well*


What's on your playlist?
 
b: well, part of the idea of the spotlight threads is to get to know people. :>

e: some more questions!

11. what brought you to lit?
12. what kept you here?
13. what other forums do you dig on here?
14. what artists or thinkers were most influential on your thinking, either pro or con?

What's on your playlist?

Same. But for the asking:


Meat eater or vegetarian?

If you eat steak, how do you like yours cooked?

Favourite junkfood?

Ultimate guilty pleasure?

Do you iron your clothes or wear the wrinkles out of them again?

Are you a gamer?

Profuse apologies for the delay in responding. Took an internet vacation to get some R/L work done and then took a work vacation to host a friend from Germany. Back to work now and, more importantly, back to Lit.

Okay. First question.

How did you choose your name for Lit?
'eudaemonia' was chosen for its philosophical ring as well as its aspirational value -- 'happiness derived through productive pursuit'.

e, it's been nice to see you back here! let's start with the usual...

2. what is your least favorite word? << Depends on the context. (Dodge!)

3. what turns you on [creatively, spiritually or emotionally]? << The pursuit of knowledge.

4. what turns you off? << It's a toss up: pettiness and willful ignorance pretty much vie for my everlasting contempt.

5. what is your favorite curse word? << the word 'fuck', except when used in bed

6. what sound or noise do you love? << Animate or inanimate? The Pacific Ocean for the latter, a lover's heartbeat for the former.

7. what sound or noise do you hate? << Mindless, aimless, useless babbling.

8. what profession other than your own would you like to attempt? << Public interest law. Commercial airline pilot. Sex columnist.

9. what profession would you not like to do? << Politician -- I would truly suck at it.

More to come ...

e: some more questions!

11. what brought you to lit? << The desire to give and receive erotic visibility.
12. what kept you here? << The regulars of HTC.
13. what other forums do you dig on here? << Besides the stories I'm beginning to appreciate BDSM Cafe a bit.
14. what artists or thinkers were most influential on your thinking, either pro or con? << Oh boy, that would be rather revealing. I'm not sure I feel safe in answering right now.
15. when atoms get smashed, what do you think they were drinking? :D << Why, ether, of course. ;)

(I could speak volumes more on Q.11 if anyone is interested.)

More to come ...

Meat eater or vegetarian? << Omni ... very, very omni.

If you eat steak, how do you like yours cooked? << Warm rare.

Favourite junkfood? << Hostess powdered donuts.

Ultimate guilty pleasure? << Food wise, sex wise, entertainment wise?

Do you iron your clothes or wear the wrinkles out of them again? << I prefer my street clothes ironed but my bed clothes wrinkled.

Are you a gamer? << Good question! I suppose I'm *kind of* a paleo-gamer: use to play Star Trek on the telerams in junior high but didn't really click with anything else until Tetris came out. I've been playing Band of Heroes on FB though that's growing dull fast.

What fictional character do you associate with the most?
Ginny Weasley: She's fierce, she's clever and she gets the hero in the end. :cattail:

nice to see you, e! :>

eudaemonia quoth:
the desire to give and receive erotic visibility.
i'd like to know more about this: it sounds positively ripe with reasons. :>

More about erotic visibility or why I came here looking for it? :)

So, if erotic visibility is the experience of being seen and accepted for who and what one is sexually, then I came here out of a sense of isolation and frustration with what I perceived as the oppressiveness of the sexually 'nilla world.

I'd like to say more. Perhaps a new thread would be useful? :)
 
hey e, seeing as it's been a while, could you please PM someone who hasn't already had a spotlight & create a new thread?
