Seven Quirks Meme

[kennahijja]

(tagged by jaelle_n_gilla)

1. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
2. Tag seven people to do the same.
3. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag whoever wants to do it.

1) I adore cats to bits, and often walk up to strange felines in the street and try to talk them into letting me pet them.
2) I get a ridiculous amount of satisfaction out of squeezing out pimples.
3) Meeting strange people or having to make small-talk with anyone I don't know well scares me silly.
4) I'm uncomfortable in any colour that isn't black, grey or darkish blue or green, and tend to feel... more powerful in skirts :).
5) I love parsley and can eat it like salad (ok, I also eat salad 'raw' without dressing)
6) I have a weird sort of honour code that doesn't really fit in with 'traditional morality', but which is pretty rigid nonetheless.
7) Music, especially loud music, tends to affect me physically - I can get virtually high that way.

Tagging... lazy_neutrino, snorkackcatcher, parlophone, aras_fixation, karaontai (if she can still surprise me), liriaen and dracos_doll (only if they feel like it, of course!)

Seven hmm -- you know I won't be able to do seven myself -- tag I mean......:-)

1) I check the front door every night to see if I really locked it -- even though I know I did.
2) I secretly would love to have an affair with someone who I am pretty sure doesn't know I exist.
3) I sometimes doubt my own decisions in life so far.
4) Except for one friendship (you know who) I pretty much dump people after a while -- or better said when have no further need of their company. Cruel but true.
5) I have an easier time expressing myself in English than in German.
6) I have yet to meet a German guy that I could see myself having a relationship with (if I wasn't in one)-- I think they are full of themselves and arrogant.
7)I am much more like "Dana" than I am comfortable to admitting.

So did I surprise you????

Hmmmm... no, not really :). I didn't know 1), but it didn't surprise me. I do it in the office, but not at home :).

And I haven't forgotten that side comment of yours about threesome recs - I just wish I was sorting fics on my hard drive according to a system instead of hoping I'll find something again by title :(.

[karaontai.livejournal.com]

yup me too -- I would really like to (try) read that ;-).

I knew I couldn't surprise you -- you just know me too well ...

xoxox

That's interesting! Well, you did alright in a group of 400 HP nerds and you did talk. I know cuz I remember your voice ;-)
I'd love to hear about that morale codex of yours. I wonder if it is similar to mine (which is also kinda strange).

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

Weeeeell, HP nerds doesn't quite equal strangers :). And actually, I can talk to *strangers* if there's a purpose. Just the smalltalk sort of situation...

The weird moral code includes such gems as "You can lie like a storyteller in RL, but not on the Net" or "Behave even more correctly towards your enemies than your friends". I've never said it makes sense :). I also felt very positively about your comment on following only rules that make sense - that made me think of this quirk in the first place :).

[karaontai.livejournal.com]

Okay, I get the second one -- makes sense. The first one is a bit weird -- I never lie -- but I do withhold certain information at times. What I don't say cannot be held against me (whistles).

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

The second one is also passive aggressive as in 'it drives them crazy' :). I lie because it makes life simpler, but on the net... it would be so much easier there, so it feels somewhat unfair. Or maybe I'm just being contrary ;).

Um... have you ever considered transferring the Callisto icon here too? I'm so in love with it ;).

[karaontai.livejournal.com]

No, but I will give it a try -- anything (well almost) for you ;-).

[karaontai.livejournal.com]

Alright I did -- but how in the world those one pick a different one for each reply??? I am confused now ;-).

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

Eeep, there she is! As cute as ever!

If you hit 'reply', it says 'Picture to use:' followed by a box. If you hit the Häkchen, it should show you all your userpictures, and you can select whichever you want :).

I don't get you on Nr. 1 but I totally second Nr. 2. I never leave a soft spot open for enemies. It's a kind of self defense.
I was just the opposite, once. I had multiple personalities and made up stories for them, and never told anyone who I really was. Well, that's 10 years past at least *g* Honestly. I'm honest now. I would tell you if I weren't :-)))

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

*giggles*

The multiple sockpuppets thing has a theoretical appeal, but I already fail at handling two accounts at once :). Perhaps I should turn my signature into "I'm not that honest, I'm just too dumb to lie convincingly" :). On the net at least...

[jaelle-n-gilla.livejournal.com]

A friend of mine kept saying "I know all the people on the internet and half of them are you" :-)
It's true, it's a pain to keep track. I think that was partly why it stopped.

[magic-at-mungos.livejournal.com]

I fangirl you so much the fact that you knew who I was at Sectus left me on a high :) *looks sheepish*

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

*snorts*
As if I'd forget a FA modbeing *and* a beta reader! Still wish we'd have had some time to actually talk instead of rapidly squeeing on the corridor :). *hugs*

[magic-at-mungos.livejournal.com]

I know. There were so many people there that I wanted to talk to but only saw them in passing

[ejab62.livejournal.com]

#1, #2 and #3 could be me answering them, really.

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

That's a relief! (Not *so* weird after all!)
