1. What turns you on, creatively or otherwise?
Jeffery Self: Parker Posey.
2. What’s a good tip for someone who wants to be you for Halloween?
I am really into Navajo prints right now.... so....
3. Which celebrity’s hair do you covet most?
Ooh! Um. Whoopi, obviously. But besides that… Efron — Zac, not Nora — has got it going on. And while we're at it, Nora Ephron has always looked great. Ladies, a bob doesn't age. You're welcome.
4. What would your death-row last meal be?
I used to really love the roasted chicken at this place City Grille on the Upper West Side in NYC. They closed, but I think I'd go with that. Plus, at least two bottles of Shiraz. And some really good cake. Probably from Amy's Bread, also in NYC.
5. What’s your juiciest vice or guiltiest pleasure?
I reckon piss play. Just kidding. I have no guilt about that — or pleasure come to think of it. One Direction? But I don't feel guilty about that really, because I think they're super-crazy talented. Is that the first time DLNQNT has printed "piss play" and "One Direction" in the same sentence? I didn't think so. I am also like obsessed with wasabi peas. But, again, not guilty about it. I am pretty proud of everything I love. Shouldn't we all be?
6. What extravagant purchase should probably make you feel guiltier?
I reckon a juicer.
7. When’s the last time you wanted to slap someone?
Anytime I read homophobic bile and anytime people say mean things on the Internet about celebrities to attempt to seem clever and interesting.
8. What most likely made that stain on your outfit?
Peanut butter.
9. Describe your favorite undergarment.
Ooh! I have these Navajo briefs I am like obsessed with right now. See! I told you I was into Navajo.
10. What’s a lie you’ve told more than once?
That I've seen Outrageous Fortune. I ain't ever.
BONUS: Where do you see yourself in five minutes?
Probably Google-imaging Nora Ephron now that she's on my mind.
