Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

My earned name, bequeathed upon me by fearmybooty and madoo, is Socks the Trollop, and I take this title very seriously. My superpowers are spooning dead hookers (don't scoff, it takes skill), spackling, and knowing more film quotes than can possibly be healthy. I left my heart in Edinburgh, in a box, hidden in a bag, stuffed into the corner of a closet filled with wood. Shimmybliss is one of my harem members...there are many waiting to join.

Well-read geek who knows how to rewire a porch light and cook eggs benedict. Certifiable film junkie. Friendly misanthrope. Curses like a sailor. Likes sitting in the dark watching flickering lights, the smell of used bookstores, and cheese. Dislikes drivers who tailgate, people who text message in movie theatres and people who constantly use netspeak. Unreasonably turned on by big words, alliteration and true cleverness; I give new meaning to the term "sibilant sapiosexual."

A little old man told me I had "a lot of moxie". It is now my new favorite compliment ever. I probably own more books than you. I am a Member of the okcupid Cheese Appreciation Society.

I am known to be awesome in at least 14 different ways but I'm far too modest (awesome feature #12) to make such a claim myself. Instead I trick helpless nerds into saying such things on my behalf.

If you need to dispose of a body I'm the one you want answering that 3am call.

Just remember to specify whether it needs to look like an accident, or if there needs to be no trace found. Dead hookers will just be thrown in the trunk.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

Too much and not enough. Looking for persistent answers to life's fleeting questions. Lately attempting to go to science lectures. And selling everything I own to the highest bidder. Need a vintage toaster? Oh yes, and collecting new friends from new places like trading cards so I have an excuse to visit them. And no, you can't have my shimmybliss card. (It's autographed and quite possible a nood.)

True to myself and the heresy of stripey socks in a Catholic clime, the imp inside begged to be set free and in that spirit, I live in the moment. And what a moment it is...

I'm really good at Propose an edit

I am moderately good at an astonishing number of things and really good at a less astonishing number of things. Keeping sharper on the end of a leash.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

That I am not invisible.

The obvious answer is "the socks, dummy!" but that's not it. It is the legs encased therein. Shapely, tantalizing gams, babycakes. Never understimate the power of my legs. And my socks.

The first thing I noticed was her smile and shy sparkling eyes. It occurred to me almost immediately that I'd looked at her socks thumbnail so frequently that I had completely forgotten there was a face to see. I will never make that mistake again, thankfully, for she is a beauty. Eavocative

She appeared to me on my Quiver, a vision of rainbow socks and scintillating words. The short snippet of interest shown to me spoke of Katherine Dunn, of dystopian futures, and film, music, and food. It was the words that grabbed me - a command of the language that demanded my attention and made me wonder for more.
Candlejack


A shock of red behind the wheel
A face, by mirth nor mourning lined;
Her laugh an effervescent peal
That bids me put my cares behind;
Her shining voice a brightened steel
That sculpts my rough unpolished mind.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food Propose an edit

Geek Love by Katherine Dunn, which earns its own mention.

Couldn't possibly list favorites in any of these categories. I am partial to Science Fiction (and dystopian futures specifically), but also literature, films and music from nearly any era and genre, and just about any food except green bell peppers.

I am waging a personal campaign to make everyone watch Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, because it is brilliant and addictive. Anything involving Irishmen who have moved to London namely the wonderfully blunt and social terrorist Dylan Moran, even though like all Irishmen he can move home now as the famine is over.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Letting loose the bloodhounds to find some dead hookers so I can spoon them. If you ask nicely, I might let you watch. And definitely not poking sharp sticks into turtles' stomachs then going up on stage and using them in a sick variant of a plate-spinning routine. At least, not on Fridays.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

fear is the mind-killer.

fearmybooty is the mind pleaser

My collection of dead hookers is the largest west of the Alleghenies.

You should message me if Propose an edit

You genuinely love books and films, and are generally sort of nerdy/geeky about these things. You laugh at things that probably shouldn't be funny. You laugh so hard you pee yourself a little at things that definitely shouldn't be funny. You need help finding alternative uses for goods from Target. You can afford $10 a minute. You were there the day the earth stood still.
