How many ...?

[Pompey Bum]

I've never seen them, but I'll get there some day.

How many times have you been thrown out of a bar or restaurant?

[Clopin]

Never kicked out but I once skipped out on my tab and the bouncer caught up with me and made me pay.

How many Nabokov books have you read?

[Pendragon]

Never heard of Nabokov

Oh Jeez, are they on Twitter, too?

Twenty. And these two posts make me think that I might be in the 'ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer' thread. Never heard of Nabokov?

How many hours did you sleep last night?

[bounty]

ive read just one nabokov, Lolita. it was a little different than what I was thinking, almost hoping it would be...maybe more along the lines of Belinda, by anne rice.

I really enjoyed a contemporary book called, reading Lolita in Tehran. its about this female English teacher who found herself on the wrong side of the government so to speak and yet continued to meet with her female students, teaching/reading literature that would get them all into trouble if they were found out.

~7 1/2 hours of sleep last night...which is a little light for me.

how many times do you shave/trim throughout the week?

[Clopin]

I've read The Defense, Pale Fire and Lolita and I still don't really like Nabokov. I own Ada or Ardor and his autobiography and I still plan to read Invitation to a Beheading, Pnin and his collected stories before I decide finally that I just don't like his books. Haha he's the author I most want to like but just... don't.

I have read Reading Lolita in Tehran though and I did enjoy it!

I shave whenever I feel like it, sometimes not a lot (and I look like a complete moron with facial hair of any kind so this is very bad) but generally if I want to look reasonably presentable I need to shave at least twice a week, but probably three times. My facial hair is a light blond/red though so it's not incredibly noticeable anyway.

How many times do you stay up an entire night in any given month (if it's less than once give a reasonable decimal)?

[Pendragon]

Sometimes when my bipolar goes whacky I can be up for as much as 72 hours, but it doesn't happen that often. Say 1 time in three months.

Do you dream in color?

[Clopin]

Yes, I do, do some people not?

[Pendragon]

It was a scientific claim that humans dreamed in black and white, but I dream in vivid color.

What is your worst nightmare?

[Pompey Bum]

Going into a house where I'm not supposed to be and finding something really bad: sometimes the living corpse of a child, and sometimes the devil.

Hey, isn't this "How Many"?

How many times have you swum in the nude?

[Clopin]

Never, actually.

Same question haha

[Pompey Bum]

I used to skinny dip in Walden Pound at night (after they kicked everyone out) and also on Cape Cod with the wild Irish "summer wetbacks" my buddy and I used to pick up. So lots of times.

How many times have you seen a movie, then snuck into another movie at the same complex?

[Clopin]

Zero. i can hardly remember there being a single movie out in theatres that I wanted to see, let alone two at the same time.

How many items of physical media do you own (books, dvd's, cd's, records, etc) when you add them all together?

[Pompey Bum]

Man, I thought I was the Puritan!

I don't know. I gave most of that stuff away already.

How many vinyl records have you ever purchased?
