You’re quite welcome
What is it about Literotica that keeps you coming back here?
I'm very shy!
I'd say other than my native language, I'm only truly fluent in English. I make mistakes in English that a native speaker would never make, yes, but it's a language that I can use with relative ease in both writing and speaking and cover many topics. It doesn't take too much of an effort for me to function in English.
Lucky you I've just learned imperative last week or I wouldn't have understood the second sentence and probably would have answered pannas.
Dw i'n mwynhau "cenhinen" hefyd. Maen cennin yn flasus a'r gair yn edrych yn braf.
Hmm. I don't really believe in guilty pleasures.
Not really. Iris probably knows the most about me from the current Litsters and we're in contact off Lit as well. Meeks knows me pretty well, too. There have been a few people that I've really bonded with over the years that don't come around anymore, too.
It varies a lot. I usually go through periods of cooking one type of food and then moving on to something else. Recently I've enjoyed asparagus in many forms.
I don't have any real hobbies currently besides learning languages, doing crosswords and geocaching.
It counts.I used to play the recorder and krumhorn, which people usually laughed at and then were pretty impressed when they heard me play. Maybe that counts?
Edit: Oh, I solve the International Linguistics Olympiad problems for fun! Is that impressive?

I genuinely like Sister Act 1 and 2. I associate such great times with the movies that I can't not like them. This is something people find strange mostly because they're not really movies people would associate with me.
Many (most?) people outside certain countries find it very strange that I love licorice and salty licorice, especially combined with chocolate.

Ooh, great question! You know, this is something I've wondered about a lot.
The first encounters beyond my own imagination I had with bdsm were from porn mags I found at the attic of my grandparents' house. My grandparents were both dead by then and I'm not sure whose the mags were, but there was some very, very filthy and niche stuff there. I've ofter wondered whose the mags were. Clearly someone on my dad's side of the family has had similar leanings that I have, but I have no idea who.
I think my mom calls the shots in the relationship with my dad. Dad does what she tells him to, but at the same time dad has always been the one to say the final word when my mom has told that what he says goes. I could imagine them having some sort of an unconscious D/s thing going, but I really don't want to think about it too closely.
I can see some of the same traits in me as in my mom, but they manifest a little differently. We're both the care taking type, whereas my sister isn't. I generally enjoy doing the more menial house keeping tasks, because I spin it as service in my head. My mom is always the first to jump to doing the tasks, but when she does, she makes a big deal out of it and lets everyone know she's not enjoying it and takes on a martyr role. My sister hates everything to do with that sorts of things.
I think the difference between me and my mom is that I have always grown up knowing that men can clean and cook (although my dad wasn't ever a good cook, but at least he participated in some capacity) and take care of what's too often considered feminine tasks as well, whereas for my mom it was always dictated from the outside - she was expected to do those things because she was a woman and she was the eldest kid in her childhood family.
So all in all, I'm not sure. Such a good question though, I wonder if this could be a topic to a thread.
Okay, so I thought about this a little. And the answer is that Big Oil is behind this grand theft! Wanna know why?
Without coffee. I don't drink coffee very much, so I could do without any quite easily. I mean, I love a good cup of mud every now and again, but it's not a need for me.
That is an excellent observation, and it it’s straight from Q, it absolutely must be true.
Well my people are (one of, if not the) biggest consumers of java per capita in the world, so your expectation was not unfounded. But I don’t drink coffee every day, and when I do, it’s usually just one of those dainty coffee cups worth and not a big mug. Or if it’s a bigger mug that I’m using as my vessel, it’s usually equal parts oat milk and coffee.
