Hmm, in my region, Pholcus phalangioides means Daddy Longlegs. Oh well, expected differences in language.
Still doesn't make you less of a ninny for freaking out over one of those.

1. Two things people may not know about you. - Was raised by christian/muslim parents, I'm older than 25 (surprise).
2. Two things you would love to do as a profession. - If I knew that I wouldn't be in my current job.
3. Two things that you wish you were interested in, but it's just not your cup of tea. - Women older than 35 and what the people on my ignore list are saying . ( joke).
4. The worst insect to walk the earth. Spiders.
5. Two hobbies. - Boxing/MMA or History.

Well, then you're obviously a good kid
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

1. I am a foot fetishist. Ideally, I like women's feet in as little as possible.
I consider the Marquis de Sade my favourite comedic writer (because when the 120 days of Sodom isn't shocking, it's just fucking ridiculous.)
2. Playwright and bartender. I want the latter (what with the fact that I'd be surrounded by drunks who frequently have some problems that would make interesting material for a story.)
3. The Wire and The Godfather. Two massively acclaimed series that I deeply wish I could get further into.
4. The wasp. O Di Immortales, are they horrifying.
5. Reading (currently finishing Elmore Leonard's Pagan Babies, in the middle of Louis L'Amour's The Daybreakers, and soon to begin Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye.) and watching films (currently listening to the director's commentary on The Downfall.)
Comparing the Universal Oneness of All Life to Yo Mama since 2010.
I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.

4. The worst insect to walk the earth.
Daddy long legs. I had an epic battle with one of these fuckers. I squished it about 5 times, reduced it to just 1 leg but it still kept flying towards my face. Disgusting things.
5. Two hobbies.
Playing computer games
Skiing
I really like video games. I love the creative aspects of it, so fun. I don't think that massive bug was a daddy long legs...it looked like some mutant mosquito. I believe I threw a book ontop of one of those.

By very christian, I mean he isn't mildly christian He takes it very seriously... But his parents are missionaries, so I feel sorry for him. They clearly indoctrinated him at a very young age.
I find all theists hypocritical. I'd like to meet your friend, we could have fun talking in Bible language, that would be exciting, has he considered joining this site or does he shun technology? Missionaries are great (a little abnormal sometimes, but great), I believe I'll be a missionary soon.
Most people are hypocritical, not just theists.

My apartment is too small to bring out my machine, but when I move in January it's going to be sew time for me. I crochet instead. I should have listed politics too, I'm just terrible with politics I feel like everyone has an angle. I just don't feel anyone can be trustworthy and be in the government at the same time.
My mother taught me when I was young, and any time I had to sew a costume for anything, I would haul out her machine.
Truth be told, I have so many interests and hobbies, your list couldn't contain me. I also collect tarot decks. I have a burning curiosity about folklore and mythology and the occult as well.
I had a sewing teacher for a short period of time, she was impressed that I made a simple purse without knowing...anything really, so she took me under her wing for a few sessions, in the end I had to leave that state, so I didn't retain much of what was taught since it was so basic!
I agree the occult is very interesting. Kurt Koch is my favorite author on the subject.

My friends can't believe that I'm brilliant in keeping things tidy at work and my co-workers can't believe that my room has got barely any floor visible.
I'm still somewhat afraid of the dark. The only time I lose reason because of fear would be when I'm in a dark basement.
2. Two things you would love to do as a profession.
If I could do any job in the word and be brilliant at it, I would love to be a manga-ka or a neurosurgeon.
3. Two things that you wish you were interested in, but it's just not your cup of tea.
Hockey. I do enjoy to go watch the occasional game live, but I can't seem to live and breath hockey as most of my fellow Finns do.
Children. I can't stand socializing with poorly raised brats.
4. The worst insect to walk the earth.
I like insects. They are vital for many an ecosystem.
5. Two hobbies.
Only two..? Come on!
Well, two that can't be seen from my sigpic are aikido and scouting. I don't do them anymore, but I loved both.
Aikido, very interesting. I know what you mean about hockey. smh.
