The Actor's Studio

It's the interview questions created by Bernard Pivot. Give it a shot and do me a favor: think about your answers. Don't just throw something down. Really think about. I think you may even be surprised by your own answers...
Won't some of you take it with me? :-D
*
1. What is your favorite word?
Discombobulate. Closely followed by schmegeggi.
2. What is your least favorite word?
Cunt.
3. What is your favorite noise?
If I like it, it’s not noise, it’s music. The gurgling of the coffee pot when it’s almost finished brewing a pot, or rain on a tin roof, far-off thunder, the pound and shush of the ocean.
4. What is your least favorite noise?
Someone with the sniffles. I have mild synaesthesia, and ever since I was a kid, when someone sniffles, it creates a jagged black scribble across my eyes, like someone making hashes with a fat black soft-leaded pencil. Taking those standardized tests in grade school was always excruciating, because at least one kid in every class had the sniffles, and every other bubble to fill in was punctuated with angry black scrawls.
5. What turns you on?
A hand on the small of my back.
6-What turns you off?
Body & facial hair. There’s a limit.
7. What job, other than the one you currently hold, would you MOST like to try?
I’d love to be the next Margaret Moth. That woman lived every moment of her too-brief life.
8. What job, other than the one you currently hold, would you LEAST like to try?
Food service, ‘nuff said.
9. What is your favorite curse word?
I can’t necessarily say that the word I use most often is my favorite. Fuck is useful, don’t get me wrong, but it’s also too common and lacks verbal punch. For me, ‘fuck’ is an exclamation point more than an obscenity. Context is what grabs me the most. If I want to get under a guy’s skin, calling him a ‘punk’ or a ‘bitch’, or falling back on that glorious Spanish term guey, a bull without horns, is so much more satisfying than telling him to go fuck himself. I hate the word cunt so much I cringe to type it, and I could never spit it out aloud, in anger or otherwise.
10. What do you want to the Gods say when you arrive in Heaven your place of the dead, if it exists?
“Hope the door doesn’t hit you in the ass on the way out!”
