Actually, it's an interview meme. Comment, and I get to give you five questions which you'll probably know the answer to, and you answer them in your LJ.
Here are mine, courtesy oftheregoesyamum
1. What's your favourite Finn off-shoot (solo, Finn bros, Split Enz, CH, Mullanes, Seven Worlds Collide, ALT, etc...)
Crowded House, the first Finn project that I loved. I was kind of scared by Split Enz on Countdown, when I was maybe nine or ten years old, but at the time I was also wearing a band-aid across my nose, and pretending to be Adam Ant. It was a strange time. So, Crowded House, because they were the first group that really made me listen to the lyrics.
2. Most arse-smelling perfume in the world?
I work in a pharmacy, so I spend a lot of time avoiding such things. There are so many arses to choose from. Cheapest of the arsey perfumes would have to be Tweed or Panache. Of the high-dollar arse range, I'd have to nominate Britney's Curious. But nothing smells worse than perfume and cigarettes. If you smoke, you shouldn't waste your money on perfume, it only makes you smell worse.
3. Do you agree that they needed to have a gladiatorial battle with harpoons and nets in the Aussie version of 'The Biggest Loser'?
Part of the fun of living in the country is that I don't pick up most free-to-air channels. I didn't watch the show itself, but listened to long and terrifying discussions of it at work. It was a dieting show where the challenges involve eating chocolate? I think that they should have armed the contestants (with harpoons and nets, if you like) and let them loose on the viewing public, who deserve that kind of karma for (further) popularising a show that makes fun of overweight people.
4. How many days can you wear a shirt before you really need to wash it?
Depending on the season, I'd say three days for Summer, and five days for Winter.
5. Rec me a fic: any fic?
I'll rec you the two favourite things I've read in the last few weeks, one in HP, and one in X-Men:
