What’s the career of your dreams?
Ooh, tough one.
My knee-jerk reaction is to steal Anthony Bourdain’s job. I’d love to travel the world and just experience as much as I can. (Whilst getting paid, no less!)
I think I’d make a fair movie or music critic.

How many different colors has your hair been?
Hmm, quite a few! I was born a dirty blond (1) and began getting highlights when I was 12 or so to make my hair more of a golden blond (2). When I was a teenager, I bleached my hair white (3) and dyed it purple (4). That lasted for about a week, it faded to gray (5). After that I dyed it blue (6), bright Crayola red (7), and pink...

What’s your favorite pet to have?
Or (if not applicable), what kind of pet would you most like to have?
I’m definitely a cat person.
I love dogs but I don’t know if I would ever be able to give a dog the kind of attention they would most likely need. My relationship with dogs is the same as my relationship to children: I think they’re awesome, and...

I like to ask people about their favorite animal.
So, what’s your favorite animal?
Ask me anything
A - Age: 26 B - Bed size: Full, anything less is unbearable. C - Chore you hate: Laundry. D - Dog’s name: AJ. Not my dog, not my choice of name. E - Essential start your day item: SHOWER.

if you had to wear one outfit for the rest of your ENTIRE life, what would it be?
I already do wear the same outfit everyday: Jeans. Tank top. Hoodie or cardigan. Beat-up Chucks. It’s my Default Linda Uniform. I always come back to it because it’s awesome. Soft and comfortable, utilitarian, easy. If I’m feeling the need to be Extra Cute, I generally stick with...

Yup! No one asks me stuff much anymore.
Well, that was a quick internet trend!

Movies: Art or Entertainment?
Both! The two are not mutually exclusive!
Some movies can be art without being entertaining, though. A few artful, distinctly unpleasant movies that come to mind:
SOPHIE’S CHOICE: A fantastic, beautiful, gut-wrenching movie. I have only watched it twice. It is a difficult movie to watch. I could only put myself through that again if I am...

How do you take your coffee and or tea?
I like both equally! Although coffee tends to leave me with a mumbly in my tumbly so I drink more tea these days.
COFFEE: Lots and lots and lots of cream. Splenda. I don’t know why, I just prefer Splenda. It’s makes my coffee sweeter, I find.
TEA: A little bit of sugar, depending on the tea. Cream works well with Earl Grey...

you seem to know alot about trends in fashion/pop culture throughout the ages. what do you want to see come back into style?
Wait, I know a lot about trends in fashion/pop culture throughout the ages?! Okay, we’ll go with that! I do!
My favorite eras, in terms of style, are the 20s and the 50s. A lot of things from those eras are already coming back in style: You can buy...

What are ten things you love about yourself?
In the order of which I think of them:
1) As mentioned in an answer to an earlier question, I like my skin. It generally stays clean & clear & under control without much effort on my part. I think the tone it pretty: Not too pale, not too red, not SUPER PINK, no dark circles, no yellow. It’s awesome not to have acne. ...

What do you think is your most attractive feature?
I’m often told my skin is my best feature and I’m inclined to agree. When I woke up from surgery in October, the nurse in the recovery room exclaimed, “YOU HAVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION!” It was the first thing I heard after waking up and rating my pain on a scale of 1-10. Lolz.

Do you think growing older will make you harder, or softer? Extroverted, or Introverted? Are you gonna end up a Pitcher or a Catcher?
I’ve been growing progressively softer as I get older. Well, actually, it’s a very tricky thing. When I was younger, I was outwardly a lot harder and colder. I was this way because, inwardly, I was so incredibly vulnerable and...

What’s the worst show on TV?
I don’t think I’m a completely qualified judge, as I haven’t seen EVERY TELEVISION SHOW ON THE AIR, but based on shows I have seen:
“The Real Housewives of [Where Ever the Fuck]”
I love a good trashy reality show as much as anyone else. I have watched both seasons of “Rock of Love,” religiously. But...

what’s your favorite song to sing out loud too?
It’s a tie:
“This Book Is So Awesome” by Harry & the Potters
&
“Start Wearing Purple” by Gogol Bordello
(I sang along to this song so hard when I saw Gogol Bordello on Sunday that I am still a little hoarse.)

Do you listen to people 100% when they talk?
I try to be a good listener, but how well I listen at any given moment depends on a variety of factors.
If someone is pouring their heart out to me or discussing something serious or clearly needs someone to listen to them, they have my 100% attention. I will remember most of what they say. Part of me is, of course, trying to read...

What’s the kinkiest thing you’ve ever done in bed?
DISCLAIMER: If you are a family member, you’ll probably want to avoid reading the answer to this question.
I make no secret of the fact that I’ve got a freak streak a mile wide. I’ve mainly engaged in your garden-variety kink activities:
— Tied a boy up, blindfolded him, and had my way...

what’s your stance on Andrea Dworkin?
I think she was a fascinating figure who got a undeservedly bad reputation due some misquoting and misunderstanding of her work. I also think she was an excellent writer; she knew how to get a point across. She was a revolutionary thinker and, for that reason, has my respect.
As for her politics, well, I don’t know where I...

What’s the meanest thing you’ve ever done to another person?
This is a difficult question. I can’t recall many Intentional Acts of Meanness. I’m far to passive-aggressive to be just plain old aggressive. Have I done mean things in my life? Oh, absolutely. I’m definitely not sweetness and light. I’ve got a heart as warm as bath water, but it...

If you were a cupcake, what kind of cupcake would you be?
I’d be a chocolate cupcake with strawberry icing, topped with a real strawberry. A little girly, a little sexy, a little sweet & tart, very decadent, and a little bit dangerous.

Why are you so fucking cool?
Ha! This is a rhetorical question, but I’ll try to answer it anyway!
I am many things, but “cool” isn’t one of them. Interesting? Sure. Quirky? Oh yes. Smart? I like to think so. Funny? Occasionally. But I’m not cool. I’m always a little nervous, a little jittery. I babble and tell awkward stories when I want for...

If you had to give up one favorite food, what would the most difficult?
BREAD. Boy howdy, do I love bread. I love sandwiches and bagels and doughnuts and croissants and croutons and toast and pizza crust and naan hot from a Tandoori oven and every variation of bread one can imagine. Life without bread would not be worth living. Give me bread or give me death.
