Kyle’s Proust Questionnaire

The UK Tights Blog has been stormed by a Vanity Fair favourite! Kyle has been interrogated and his answers have stunned the crowds. His lyrical polemic prose astound as he weaves his words like golden yarn! Here are his answers to a Proust style questionnaire (that he made up).

 

Favourite Movie(s)

Once Upon a Time in America, Chinatown, The Big Lebowski.

 

Favourite Musicians

Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Max Richter, Tom Waits, Pink Floyd, Eminem, Pearl Jam, Philip Glass, Simon and Garfunkel. I’m also a new convert to The Grateful Dead. I hate U2.

 

Favourite Albums

In chronological order (because, like Caligula, I change my favourite anything around at mere whim!) Led Zeppelin II, Led Zeppelin IV, Houses of The Holy, Physical Graffiti, by Led Zeppelin.

Also, Low, Hunky Dory (Bowie), Infra (Richter) and Vitology (Pearl Jam).

My egotistical manner of writing resembles a modern day Ziggy Stardust of online publishing. It’s also one of my favourite albums!

 

Cats or Dogs?

Cats.

 

Twitter or Facebook?

Twitter.

 

What Others Say About You

Irreverent little smart alec!

 

The Love of Your Life?

Shatner.

 

Warcraft, Anyone?

I play a Hunter, FTW!

 

What Quality Do You Admire Most In Others?

A refusal to compromise, brutal honesty, irreverence, a justified feeling of pride when faced with pettiness (office politics, just as an example).

 

What Quality Do You Despise Most In Others?

Sycophancy, scoffing, tantrums, having an unearned sense of smug superiority, Prima-donnas.

More seriously, the inability to invest time and energy into something bigger. Only being able to picture the approaching weekend.

 

The Person You’d Most Want To Marry?

Not Shatner. Sharing the same bathroom would destroy my expectations.

 

Your Heroes

Shatner, Christopher Hitchens, Marshall Mathers III, Yukio Mishima (favourite book person, too).
