favorite books/authors: Erm... lessee, A Series of Unfortunate Events (*cough*), The Old Kingdom Series, Spoken Here ('bout dying languages), Memoirs of a Geisha.
examples of failings with personal relations: My irrational fears of strangers, loud people, people taller that me, morbidly obese people, horses, bleach blondes, morbidly thin people, sweating, cockroaches, and conservatives severely hinder what would probably already be a very tiny social life...
something else about why you should be in this community: I also have a phobia of stereotypes. For example, I don't like apples because they're stereotypical fruits. I'm slightly synesthetic, meaning I have concepts, colors, ideas, foods, etc. for individual words, concepts, shapes, etc. Even though I live in America, I spell "favourite" with a U. But not "color" or "splendor" or whatever. Oh, and my favourite color is chartreuse.
