Wed Reading Meme
Mar. 6th, 2019 09:15 pmSigh, haven't finished anything worth reporting on. Reading a really bad sci-fi romance novel rec'd on SmartBitches as part of their book club. I'm curious to see what they have to say about it. It's...eh, very tropy and very cliche. Then again, it is a cheap romance novel (albeit in the sci-fi genre) so what did I expect? However, it had an interesting set-up -- a microbiologist starting a company that uses alien poop to help change people's gut bacteria for longevity, gets targeted by a nasty Lord of Finance, who puts a bounty out on her and her associates heads. A band of militaristic mercernaries captures them -- to collect the bounty. She falls for the leader, who apparently has a moral compass, but not so much his associates.
All chaos ensues. And of course the associate who betrays him is a female doctor who has the hots for him. (Sigh). Don't remember the name of the thing or who wrote it, so you'll just have to survive with that synopsis. Sorry.
Anyhow, memage..courtesy of wendlah, who found this in Vanity Fair, it entitled The Proust Questionnaire. It was popularized by Marcel Proust as a parlor game, apparently he got bored and decided to see who his friends were by playing this odd game.
( 35 Questionnaire )
That was a hard meme. I stole someone else's answers...for a good portion of it.
Okay, as an aside, this is starting to worry me -- I look over my posts and discover weird typos. Such as words that sound like the word, but are not the word I intended. (example? I've written though as opposed to throw, and ended as opposed to intended.) And words that sort of end...halfway through. Such as entile - as opposed to entitled. I think my brain is tired and overwhelmed and starting to glitch. (I did it again -- instead of writing starting to glitch, I wrote, start glitch.) Does this happen to anyone else. (Please say yes. Misery loves company and all..)
