interview meme

[chronovore]

I asked hideehogal for interview questions (from the meme du jour) because her others were so interesting.


1. Boxers, briefs or commando? In college, "commando" a lot of the time, which seemed really sexy at the time and now seems unhygenic. Anymore, I'm kind of an underwear fetishist. I've got briefs, bikini briefs, boxers (both silk and cotton), and boxer briefs. I don't think I'm favoring any style in particular lately.

2. Favorite meal of the day and why?
In the west: Breakfast. Pancakes, biscuits, scones... Sausage, bacon, ham... eggs... Coffee! What more could anyone possibly want?
In Japan: Dinner. Breakfasts and lunches in Japan are very utilitarian. Presentation and relaxation are reserved for the dinner table.

3. If you were a straight female, what sort of things would you be attracted to in a man? And how would that differ if you were a gay male?
(a) A sense of humor, intelligence, witty conversation.
(b) A genuine smile and a fit body, preferably with very little body hair. Oh! Honesty as well. Pretty critical.
I wonder why I think there would be a difference...

4. Do you find your job/career fulfilling, or are you planning to switch soon?
Hm. Hmmmmm. I don't find the current work fulfilling. It's challenging without being interesting. Learning Japanese is very interesting. Learning more about the broader game world is interesting, but I've been left to founder on my own this past year, which my boss has admitted. Rather than mess about with something that I don't understand and have been little latitude to achieve, versus exploring something creative with a team, which is a skill that I know I have in spades, I would rather do the latter. However I am hoping to have better direction over the next contract period. Still, success or no, I dream of returning to art direction (and grunt art chores) at some point.

5. Chocolate or vanilla (as regards flavors)?
Vanilla. It is the finest of the flavors. I am not averse to adding kinako (ground, roasted soybeans) or kuromitsu (a kind of black syrup) to dress it up.


Thanks, Ma'am!

Edit: Ah, I didn't mean to break the meme; if anyone wants to be interviewed, drop a note here and say so.
