This was too interesting (heh) for me not to respond to even though I know it's from last month and you might feel I am being a pest. (I've added you to my f'list of course! although I fear my journal tends to be rather boring and I have been thinking what to do about that ...)
Anyway, I change my interests list all the time. Tweaking it here and tweaking it there. I am not at all satisfied with it as it stands but my mind tends to go blank when I want it to focus ... ideas come up on me peripherally ... they sneak up and tap me on the shoulder when I'm doing something else. Then of course when I have time to focus, they've slipped away again. Annoying.
I did create an LJ interest years back when I joined ~ "pervy canadians." I had a bunch of pervy Canadian LJ friends and on a whim I got that started. I was also the second to list "butt dragons" (a friend of mine started this) which made it a linkable interest. ;~) It ultimately means "pet peeve" or "irritating annoyance" or "annoying irritation," and somewhere or other in memories I have the definition linked (I just realize it's to the friend's locked entry which reminds me I need to make a post in my own LJ with the definition so people can click on the tag and find out for themselves ... will have to do that tonight if I remember).
Also, I was the only one on LJ to have "eupraxsophy" listed, for the longest time. Finally one more person listed that, and now I believe there are several. I've lost my special unique snowflakeness there. ;)
I'm rambling. Anyway ... truth is I've actually been rather restrained about my interests list (103 as of this moment) thinking more length might put off people. I know I always look at interests lists and find them fascinating. Short ones disappoint me, too. I like a lot of interests!
This has given me more urge to tweak ... when I find the time!
