Quickies Topics:

OK here’s how the quickies work, we ask a simple question and you give your own short answer. Responses can be as small as a word and as long as a paragraph or two.

Example Question:
What’s the weirdest gift you ever got from someone you were involved with?

Example Answer #1: A rubber tree.

Example Answer #2: A “Thigh-master”, he said it was because I complained about how I never want to go to the gym but I needed to start working out again.

Example Question:
What was the weirdest nickname someone you were involved with gave you?

Example Answer #1: Thundercat

Example Answer #2: My boyfriend started calling me “Princess Linguini” after a cooking mishap.

Example Question:
When looking to meet people, what type of guy/girl do you hate the most?

Example Answer #1: Occasionally, I feel like I’ve made a connection with someone. They’re friendly, responsive, eager to listen, all that good stuff. But that all turns to crap when they become the dreaded Card-Flasher. Look, some people carry business cards, I get it, but nothing says “I’m a fucking insecure tool and I was only pretending to listen to you for half an hour so I could pimp my glorious self” better than handing out your goddamned card after a lengthy conversation about something that was obviously not interesting enough to take your mind off self-promotion for two seconds. “I really hope you get that AIDS research grant, and by the way, if you need a good Prop Master sometime, give me a call. My credits are on the back next to my headshot.” I realize this happens more in L.A. than anywhere else, but fuck off, Card Flasher. You want to network, go to a DGA screening. If you are going to insist on wasting my time and tricking me into talking to you, at least buy me a drink before you hand me your resume.
