The ask me a question game!

Each has its perks. While written communication can help me say things I can't say verbally, verbal communication gives me other ways of communcating, like noises and laughter. They compliment each other.

Same question.

Although it may not always seem like it, I'm better with the written word than I am verbally. I have a much easier time getting my point across with my pen/keyboard. But if I really know a person, verbal is easy, too.

What's the best concert you've ever been to?

I'm most certainly more adept at written communication that verbal. I think it's the only reason more people on the boards here don't take me for the asshole that I am .


EDIT: Ah damn, too slow.

My best concert was the Eagles last year- thought Kid Rock was fun a few weeks earlier but only because I got to work it.


Do you use a straight razor, safety razor, or electric?

I've only been to one, with Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera. It was great. I wished I had brought my camera and I wasn't all the way in the nosebleeds, but still a good time.

What's music that always cheers you up?

 

[GoodOmen]

October Project, Park West.

What was the best professional sporting event you ever attended?

2005 World Series Game 3. Astros lost, but it was a great game.

Do you prefer books or movies?

I prefer Nair. Who wears short shorts...

Books. I love using my imagination and I love words.

My question above: What's music that always cheers you up?

Ha! as dumb as it sounds considering current events, Michael Jackson or the Jackson 5.

What's the best vacation you've ever taken?

Disneyland. It's always good.

A week at Savannah/Tybee Island with my best friend, a couple of years ago.

Do you wonder sometimes where that fork in the road not taken was?

All the stinking time. Ask Kendra...

Are there books or poems or song lyrics that just sum something up so perfectly for you that you worry someone is following you around?

 

[Lorilei]

Yes. Not sharing here, though.

Is there a book from your childhood that you still go back and read again sometimes?

 

[glasspenguin]

Yes. Not sharing here, though.

Is there a book from your childhood that you still go back and read again sometimes?

Hard to say... Most of the books I read as a kid would be considered books for adults anyway... The only childrens books I find myself returning to over and over are the Chronicles of Narnia- but in truth, I didn't read them for the first time until I was 21 years old...


Have you ever seen woman/man that was so beautiful that you honestly thought you would cry?

Have you ever seen woman/man that was so beautiful that you honestly thought you would cry?

Yes, and I get to look at her pictures everyday...

Is there one person from your past whom you wish you had approached and regret that you didn't?

 

[Phenolphthalein]

Yes, and I get to look at her pictures everyday...

Is there one person from your past whom you wish you had approached and regret that you didn't?

Yeah, but only because it's left me curious about what could've been ever since.

If your partner suddenly decided to join a religion that you were really against, what would you do?

 

[glasspenguin]

Yeah, but only because it's left me curious about what could've been ever since.

If your partner suddenly decided to join a religion that you were really against, what would you do?

It would depend on the religion in question, but it's very likely that I would leave someone over their beliefs. I'm a struggling agnostic bordering on atheist at this point, and I really couldn't handle what problems would come up as a result of that mixture.

Kind of in the same vein I guess: Have you ever had a person that you loved dearly but that felt you had to cut yourself off from?

yes---for their own good

who is your favorite fiction author currently and why?

 

[Essa]

Have you ever had a person that you loved dearly but that felt you had to cut yourself off from?

Oh my what an excellent question. The answer is yes, with a few tears down my lashes for good measure.

Thanks for ruining my day with my memories

I'm going to go for Steven King, simply because I like his work.

If work is so terrific, how come they have to pay you to do it?

Because, terrific or not, if they didn't pay you, you wouldn't go.

When you are at the grocery, and someone runs up the back of your heel with a cart, then apologizes for doing it, why do we say, "no problem, that's ok", instead of "that hurt you stupid ass!"

Because:
a) you can't be bothered making a huge fuss out of something little
b) accidents happen
c) unless you're a real prick you're not going to yell at someone over an accident which they apologised for
d) some people are wimps and would rather just whinge about it later
e) some people really think that it's okay
f) if you said anything bad the other person looks like they could break you in half or blow your eardrums with their yelling and abuse
g) a combination of the above

Why do so many people insist on judging people by what music they listen to?

I have no clue. I gave up worrying about that a long time ago.

Why do people online feel they have the right to involve themselves in other people's lives?

'Cause they haven't got one of their own?

What's dumber, expecting educators to be entertaining, or expecting entertainment to be educational?

 

[NattyBumppo]

'Cause they haven't got one of their own?

What's dumber, expecting educators to be entertaining, or expecting entertainment to be educational?

In my opinion, expecting entertainment to be educational.

Do celebrities have any influence whatsoever insofar as political issues are concerned merely due to their celebrity, or do you think it's all a bunch of hooey?

I'm gonna go for a bunch of hooey, I haven't a clue what it means but it sounds funny

What is your opinion on the question you have just asked?

Does it piss you off when someone says they're doing something "for your own good", as though you're incapable of making that judgment for yourself?

It does. Shame on people for assuming so much.



Do you tailgate the people in the left lane that are driving slow, or do you flash your brights at em...stupid slowpokes...grrrr
