preferablysomethingspecific asked: Dear Charlotte, what's the worst advice you ever took?
preferablysomethingspecific asked: So it seems like you have the best suggestions when it comes to books, music, tumblrs, &c. My question is, what's your pop culture comfort food, the thing you reach for when you need to smile/cry/scream, and why. It can be a book, a play, a song, a tumblr devoted to bacon, whatever! (Mine is a poem by ee cummings, "since feeling is first," which years after discovering it in an...
preferablysomethingspecific asked: Dear Charlotte, how long has it been since we did this whole question thing? Feels like forever. So tell me, if you had to pick one game and play it forever (well, you could take breaks every so often, I guess) with one historical figure, what and with whom would it be?

ATTENTION PLZ
This tumblr is pretty much defunct, and it kind of drives me crazy that I can’t switch my secondary tumblr account with this one. GRRR.
Anyway, if you’re going to follow anything, please follow Rain In The Clouds Above (my ACTUAL tumblr)

Taking song lyrics and making them about cats- what kind of genius came up with this?

preferablysomethingspecific asked: Dear Charlotte,
I'm sure you've already thought about this a lot, but I'd really like to know what you miss most about Moscow? Is it the kvas (I finally get the point, btw! Street kvas for the win!) and the tvorog? The babushki?
Also, if you have the desire, tell me please what you don't miss about Moscow, or living in Moscow.

preferablysomethingspecific asked: Sometimes I work on a problem for a long time and slowly build toward an answer, while other times there's that one moment when the light bulb clicks and the answer seems to spring, fully formed, like Athena, from my skull.
My question for you, doragaya, is for you to describe one specific moment when that light bulb clicked - When was it? What was the question? Did you trust the...

preferablysomethingspecific asked: Sorry this took so long. I wish I could say that I've been thinking about what question to ask you for the past week, but I've really been thinking about the economic implications of medieval fairs... (That is the last time I'm going to complain about that subject. Ever.)
So my question for you has to do with.. murder! Specifically, if you could go back in time and...

preferablysomethingspecific asked: Such a good answer, by the way. Funnily enough, we talked about that exact topic on Sunday, and it appears (unsurprisingly) that my church agrees with the Russians on the importance of pairing off, to the extent that you can't achieve complete salvation without marriage. Wow.
Do you mind if I ask you a personal question? Were you in New York on 9/11? I was really young at the...

preferablysomethingspecific asked: Charlotta! It's been ages. Жаль! How was Christmas? (That's not my question.)
I'm going to be in Moscow this summer, by the way! So my question is Russia-based, and you've probably answered it many times by now, but I haven't heard your answer so it'll be new to me :D.
Anyway: What's the one thing that, as an American in Moscow,...

preferablysomethingspecific asked: What's your least favorite food? Specifically, what's a food that you dislike based not on taste, but on some terrible association.
(Or you can go the converse and tell me what your absolute best food association is. Or both. I'd be up for that.)

preferablysomethingspecific asked: This summer were you in my group the day we talked about whether we'd rather be actors or directors? I think maybe you were - it was with Olya, remember?
Anyway, whether you were or weren't, I'd like to ask you that question again. Are you an actor or a director?

What's the most expensive thing you ever bought that you absolutely hated after purchasing? (Hopefully not a pet, because that would be both sad and unbelievable. :-) )

GAME CHANGER!!
