Mustard is nasty. *gag*

Mustard with a little sugar was one of my favorite sandwich fillings when I was four or five years old.

Mustard is nasty. *gag*

I used to absolutely hate mustard when I was a kid, but then when I got older I had it on a hotdog and realized just how delicious it is.

If I could only have one condiment, it would be mustard.

That's even grosser. Ew.

Blasphemy! Go to your room you bad bad girl!

...oops... sorry...

 

[ShyGuy68]

Hmm let me see if I can come up with 25 things

3. I've been single all my life

4. I'm addicted to Pepsi Max

5. I swim 2000 meter at least once a week

6. My major mean of transportation is my bicycle

7. I live on the 5th floor, and even though I've lived her for many years, I count the 72 steps up to my apartment almost every time I walk them (no we don't have a lift)

8. I've been to 4 of the 7 continents, and last year was the first time for two of them.

[unpredictablebijou]

1. I'm doing this because Rinka requested it, and since she's in Sweden she must be cool.

2. I'm half Swedish.

3. I am not a fan of regular mustard. I do, however, enjoy a roast that has been coated in coarse dijon mustard and seasoned bread crumbs.

4. After a lifetime relatively free of anything resembling "phone sex," I have had two samples of it in the past three days. It was kinda unexpectedly hot, although at the bottom line I found it frustrating.

5. I'm on permanent leave from one area of Lit, and just coming in here occasionally, because this is an amazingly drama-free community full of cool people who have earned my respect.

6. I sit facing East most of the day.

7. I have no use for diamonds whatsoever. Rubies, however, make me drool.

8. I'm throwing a pajama party for Valentine's day.

9. I have a fetish for lingerie that borders on true addiction.

10. If you count various large "festival" events, over 4000 people have seen me naked.

11. There are at least two people in the world who despise me with an active, purple passion. They may be justified, but I don't think so. Nor do most of the people who love me, who are far more numerous. I think it's good to have one person in the world who hates you; it tends to keep you self-aware.

12. I have a rather new relationship in my life (since September) who is my total, gleeful obsession. My friends are being very tolerant of my goofy, mushy and obnoxious preoccupation.

13. I have a fat black cat, a skinny old tuxedo cat with extra toes and a crooked hitler moustache, and a normal-sized orange cat. I dote on them all.

14. I swore off women several years ago until I could get my horribly piggish attitude about them more under control. I have not yet been successful.

15. If I were a cute lil' subbie grrrl, I'd move in with Betticus. Sadly, I'm way too toppy for his tastes. I want to tell him he's adorable, but I'm afraid it would insult him.

16. Among my countless kinks are shibari, pegging, flogging, bondage, CBT, pegging, orgasm denial, forced orgasm, pegging, biting, riding crops, men who go commando under jeans, scratching, predicaments, pegging, cock bondage and pegging. With a few obvious exceptions, I don't care if I'm doing it to someone else or they're doing it to me.

17. I love leetspeak and lolcat speak; I majored in linguistics in college and I love watching new language evolve.

18. Currently I'm listening to this. I like an immense variety of music. Sometimes I pretend I'm running a radio station.

19. I took one of those online purity tests with 500 questions once. I scored a shocking number which I cannot now remember. I think it was like 14%.

20. I resent having to use capital letters. I resent particularly the convention of capitalizing "I" and my own name. I find lower case letters more esthetically appealing.

21. The greatest age difference between myself and a lover was 43 years between our respective ages. I was younger, and Yes, I was well into adulthood when it happened.

22. I have nice little secret crushes on several people on this board. Most of them would not be All That Into Me, but oh well. I'm crushin' anyway, just cause it amuses me.

23. I have a Not At All Secret and Completely Mad crush on Sri Shankara.

24. I have no tattoos. I have three regular piercings in one ear, and one piercing in the other ear. Exotic piercings and tattoos fascinate me but I have no real need to get any myself.

25. Fellatio is a very serious part of my religious belief system. SRSLY.

As to people I'd like to see lists from, many of them are already here. I'll just second the idea that five virginal newbies should post.

25. I love cereal. Probably because I hardly ever had any when I was a kid.

I can't believe God doesn't make that an 11th commandment. EVERYONE should have an unlimited amount of cereal whenever they want it, at any age! CEREAL ROCKS!!

 

[Sir_Winston54]

<Sigh>

1. I'm somewhere between 6'2" and 6'3", depending on what time of day it is, and how far I've walked during the day.
2. I have no tattoos.
3. I have no piercings.
4. I do have several scars on my head, two noticeable ones on my right wrist (the thumb side), one on my lower left back from an open bicycle handlebar that somehow got twisted around and jabbed me there, and a few others in other places.
5. I like porn. (DUH!)
6. The first time I can remember spanking someone just cuz I wanted to, I was three... maybe four, but I'm pretty sure three. So was she. And she liked it, too.
7. I used to sing in a church choir. That stopped when I got caught with my hands in the panties of another singer in the robing room after church.
8. I wear size 12 (US) shoes.
9. I weigh about 50 pounds more than I should, and I'm going to work on that this year.
10. I notice almost every typo/mis-spelling in everything I read, and just about every mis-use of a word.
11. I'm addicted to American Idol, Survivor and Big Brother.
12. I drive like a maniac, and attribute that to having learned to drive on an Italian go-kart track as a pre-teen. And maybe to five years of driving a taxi in Tampa.
13. I hate talking on telephones, even if I get to wear a cool earphone/mic combination.
14. I'm impatient in lines at the store. Any store. I've been known to leave my shopping cart standing in line by itself and leave the store if the clerk is too slow, and come back at 2 or 3 a.m. to do my shopping.
15. My lifetime best game bowling is a 298, with a pulled 4-6 split on the last ball.
16. My son and I used to shoot archery at an indoor range, where we would hang a six-inch piece of arrow (about the diameter of a #2 pencil) 30 yards downrange as a target. On good days, I could hit the arrow 5 of 6 shots. On really good days, I'd shoot at it as it was swinging from previously being hit, and manage 2 or 3 hits in 5 shots (the first one started the swinging).
17. Even though I was (and am) a lousy tennis player, I was a damned good coach. I could see what the players were doing wrong (or not as well as they should), and show them in slow motion how to do it right. For the most part, though, I couldn't do it at playing speed. Except serving. I had a killer American Twist serve that drove my high school players crazy. It really annoyed them that I wouldn't let them use it. (It's very very bad for the elbow unless done perfectly. My elbow is proof.)
18. I've been married (and divorced) three times, and was friendly with wife #2 until I moved 600 miles away, and am still friendly with wife #3.
19. I like both cats and dogs.
20. My vision was 20/20 until shortly after I hit puberty, then it went - in one year! - to 20/200, where it has remained for the past 40+ years. When I first got contacts, the prescription that was supposed to give me 20/20 vision again made it 20/10 in one eye, 20/15 in the other. The ophthalmologist had no idea why.
21. I love the sound of a cane slicing through the air before it contacts the bottom of my target.
22. I smoke too damn much, and have for too long, but I am going to quit.
23. My tummy's growling; I'm hungry.
24. I prefer sleeping on Egyptian cotton sheets, 400 thread-count or higher. With a blanket and a comforter. On my tummy, legs straight down to the bottom of the bed, hanging over and pulling the flat sheet partway out. That's why I have to re-make my bed 2-3 times a week.
25. My eyes are blue, unless I wear a yellow shirt (very rare). Then they appear sort of a muddy green. That's why I don't wear yellow shirts very often.

I may come back and change some of these later.

18. I have touched David Duchovny’s naked chest. (I wouldn’t have done it if I wasn’t getting paid to do it, BTW).

JEALOUS. What exactly were you being paid to do?

 

[Keroin]

JEALOUS. What exactly were you being paid to do?

Please don't be jealous. If I had a memory-transference device, I would happily send that one your way.

I was getting paid to get my ass kicked by Gillian Anderson's stunt double. The scene was set in a virtual-reality hospital where Mr D was being tended to/held captive by some naughty nurses. (I being a naughty nurse, who just happened to know kung-fu).Hence, the chest rubbing.

He's a nice enough guy, just not my brand of "yum".

That. Is. Awesome.

I wish I was a college graduate about 10 years ago so that I could have worked on The X Files.

1.) Everything I eat must be in multiples of four. Four pieces, eight bites, whatever.

2.) I grew up in a town so small, we didn't even have red lights.

3.) Sylvia Plath is my favorite writer, followed closely by Dorothy Parker. (Yes, I know. Does not compute.)

4.) I own five Tennessee Walking Horses.

5.) I was active in a sorority as an undergrad.

6.) I can't tie a knot to save my life. I was probably 7 or 8 years old before I could tie my shoes with any degree of accuracy.

7.) I have a bachelor's degree in psychology.

8.) I have three-quarters of a master's degree in English.

9.) I should finish the other three classes I need to get my master's this summer.

10.) Cream cheese icing with pecans IS, in fact, good enough to kill someone over. I don't even need the cake. Just the icing.

11.) I played slow-pitch softball for 8 years and was the only person I've ever heard of to pitch a curveball in slow-pitch.

12.) I went to the state spelling bee when I was in the 5th grade and made it through several rounds before I was eliminated by the word "liquefaction." (I still don't know what it means or how to spell it, LOL.)

13.) I think soft spread butter on club crackers makes a hell of an appetizer.

14.) I love the whole wheat pizza crust from Papa John's. It's not nearly as grossly greasy as most chain pizza crusts. It also doesn't collapse under the weight of toppings.

15.) Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch is my favorite!

16.) The diopter of my left contact is -5.75. The diopter of my right contact is -2.50. So my left eye is more than twice as bad as my right.

17.) I love cheap makeup.

18.) I will eat pancake syrup by itself. I don't drink it straight out of the bottle, though. I pour a little on a spoon and eat it.

19.) I am a totally unapologetic redneck.

20.) I have no idea what I want to do with the rest of my life.

21.) My baby is a silver '96 Firebird. I can't drive her now, though, because the transmission is shot, and I don't have the money to fix it. I actually cried when this happened and still refuse to let anyone sell her, even though I haven't driven her in over a year.

22.) I'm currently driving a dark blue '00 F-150 extended cab. Ugh.

23.) My boss is the same age as me.

24.) I wish I could make a life for myself as a writer, but I question my motivation.

25.) The beach soothes me more than anything.

 

[Keroin]

That. Is. Awesome.

I wish I was a college graduate about 10 years ago so that I could have worked on The X Files.

They had awesome catering. Top notch. But working on the show? Lots of nights, in the rain, and the cold, in the middle of the forest or some equally remote location. Not so fun. Cast and crew were nice, that's always a bonus.

Still, I have dreams of the desserts they used to serve. Mmmmmmmmm.

Floridian taxi drivers are a breed apart. No experience has ever frightened me as much as the short taxi ride from the Miami airport to my hotel that I took about five years ago. (And, believe me, I've had a lot of frightening experiences).

I miss playing tennis so much it hurts, (only two courts where I live at the moment and both unusable). I'm a hack but I love the game. Quite possibly the best game in the world.

I know what I would (have been?) be getting myself into. I'm a film student! Lots of the nights in the rain and the cold are a bummer, but the finished product makes it all worth it.

Last semester I was in my friend's film, prancing around in the park for about 8 hours on the coldest day of the winter so far without a coat the majority of the time. I thought I would never be warm again, but then seeing what they came up with I almost forgot how miserable it was to shoot it.

Yeah, I get it. Unfortunately, the average student or indie film is a far more rewarding experience than what I worked on ninety-five percent of the time. (The indie films had lousy food, it's a trade off). It's hard to get excited about slipping into second stage hypothermia when you see the finished product of "House of the Dead", if you know what I mean. LOL.

To be honest, I haven't seen most of the stuff I worked on. So. Much. Crap.

But cool to hear you're a film student! Hang in there, "they" will try to suck out your soul with a straw. They are not human.

I love a lot of stuff that people think is total crap, haha, so I think I'll be okay. Even the idea of working on stuff that I hate is encouraging since it would mean that I'm working at all

Ah, my mistake.

You may have golf as the best game. Tennis, though, is the best sport in the world.

No, golf is not a sport.
