Calliste gave me these questions AGES ago. My apologies for leaving it so long, but I forgot completely that I saved this as a draft in LogJam on mainpc (my network naming is so imaginative... "mainpc", "router" and "laptop"!)
What aspects do you like/dislike about women?
Women are (in general) soft and squidgy.
Women seem to have more time for the things I want people to have time for, than most blokes.
Women are pains in the proverbial ass sometimes.
The problem with this question, is that anything I write is based on the women I know, and they tend to be of... a particular "type".
What are your talents?
I'd rather not answer this one myself :)
Uhhm.
I think I'm a good listener.
Uhhm.
I'll think on it...
When listening to music, to what extent do you listen to the lyrics? Do you feel comfortable with lyrics in a language that you cannot understand?
I tend not to listen to the lyrics at first, I listen to the music at first. Whilst that does include the lyrics as a sound, I'm not listening to what the words mean. If it's the kind of song I'm listening to after all that listening to the music, I'll switch my attention to the lyrics.
I quite often listen to music with non-english lyrics. If I can find a translation it's nice, but not essential. It's always nice to actually know what the lyrics mean rather than just relying purely on the music.
What do you think you'll be doing for the next (approximately) 40 years till you are too old to work?
I honestly think I'll be doing a bit of this, a bit of that, trying to find what I want to do for the next 40yrs. I don't have a dream job, I don't have a goal where I want to be in my career, and I really don't know what I want from life. So I'll do what I can, until I find something I truly enjoy.
What is more important: Family or friends?
The unpopular answer... Friends. My family and I have never been close. I'm a lot closer to most of my friends than I ever have been with my folks.
