I often look at people's mouths when they talk. I don't think it's normal. I do think that for me at least it is to avoid the eyes of a person. eyes give information that is confusing or even contradictory to what is said |

I miss the Kids in the Hall... I think most socializing is boring. They do things and talk about things that I'm not interested in, and I'm not sure that they're really interested in what they're talking about or doing either. And I can't hide borebom at all, so... they don't like me, and I often am... |

Sight, more specifically brightness. I've had to stop driving because of the sun, which was making my eyes hurt and water, though I was wearing sunglasses and no one else in the car was bothered. I put the brightness on my electronics (laptop, ipod) much darker than usual, too. itsjustlife, I have t... |

I guess I have fashion sense; I have been complimented for the way I dress quite a few times. But I dress how I want. I've got a odd style that people respond to in extremes. Fortunately, all the people who don't like how I dress I consider to have bad style. Haha. I've got a few quirks: absolutely ... |

What was it, the second ska revival with The Beat, Selecter, and Specials? Madness I'm assuming were a bit later... I love that ska. The Specials are classic but I personally prefer The Beat (or English Beat in the U.S.). Unfortuantely I live in Southern California where there is a lot of interest i... |

I'm gonna say... Simon Tong. He played with The Verve, then with Blur after Graham Coxon left. Also did some Gorillaz stuff, and now plays with The Good the Bad and The Queen. But I'm basically just menioning him because the last three (Blur, Gorillaz, TGTB&TQ) are all Damon Albarn projects. Dam... |

It's strange how everything in my life revolves around my obsession (currently Damon Albarn, lead singer of Blur, Gorillaz, The Good The Bad and The Queen). It makes me feel like I'm 14, having his posters on my wall, drawing pictures of him, listening to his albums, imagining we're in love... when ... |
