Inside the Paralegals Studio with Bethann Gold

On the hot seat today for the famously odd but very revealing Bernard Pivot/Inside the Actors Studio questionnaire is Spar & Bernstein paralegal Bethann Gold:

What is your favorite word?

Bollocks.

What is your least favorite word?

Never or Always.

What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?

Novelty. It’s invigorating, as long as it’s GOOD novelty and not an unpleasant surprise.

What turns you off?

Arrogance/Condescension.

What is your favorite curse word?

F–k. Especially the numerous variations and compound words that can be derived from it.

What sound or noise do you love?

Good music or interesting conversation.

What sound or noise do you hate?

Too much chatter all at once, really high-pitched/loud noises (especially in confined spaces), and if I hear that “New York” song ONE MORE TIME…

What profession would you not like to do?

Sanitation. No poor attempt at a witty explanation needed.

If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

Wait… so I’m arriving at the Pearly Gates? I could’ve sworn that there was a special spot reserved for me elsewhere…
