Ask Me A Question V.3.8.18

[fire_breeze]

Yes, I think it is often used as a cudgel, especially when people using it don't seem to have other tools to use.

Do you think too many people romanticize the past?

Holy fuck in sweet hell, yes. Do you have the time?!?!
(and misunderstand it, and forget to contextualise it... okay, I'll shut up now)

Was it better in the past or not?

 

[Azuldrgon]

Was it better in the past or not?

*hugs*
Lit was to some extent. I think real life is better now.

How do you keep your mind occupied when Lit isn't available?

How do you keep your mind occupied when Lit isn't available?

Work, personal projects, friends, lovers, obnoxiously loud music... if I don't keep up a constant mental chatter, anxiety might creep back in...

What's the worst injury you've suffered?

 

[HBergeron]

A back injury that's followed me to this day.

How would you describe your belief system in the 'Creator' concept -religious, atheist, Deist, agnostic etc?

When Lit isn’t available? Perish the thought!
Books, crosswords, phone calls, practicing, research, parenting.....

What was the last thing that truly blew your mind?

Always good to see you Azul

Can neither be proven or disproven, so I don't spend too much time thinking about it.

What was the last thing that truly blew your mind?

My mind is still located in my brain, housed in my head... firmly attached to my neck

Is 24 hours in a day truly enough?

 

[Azuldrgon]

Always good to see you Azul

Is 24 hours in a day truly enough?

Most of the time it is. But then again I am more relaxed nowadays.

What stops you from being truly content?

It is a rather arbitrary yet convenient measurement of time. As Einstein enlightened us so beautifully, it is all relative.

Are you ambitious?

 

[Cyberbella]

Most of the time it is. But then again I am more relaxed nowadays.

What stops you from being truly content?

Other people. Unfortunately, I let other people ruin my day. Their mood influences mine.

What is your favorite time of day and why?

Are you ambitious?

Yes very. Try to do my best at everything.

See question above.

What is your favorite time of day and why?

Probably right around dusk, precisely because it's so quiet and there's a certain shiver in the air.

What's the one assumption people have about you when they first meet you?

They take my shyness as being snotty or better than them.

What's the best thing you have going for you?

Apparently, I'm intelligent

Are we doomed to repeat our past?

Most days it is half full but I'll admit to some of them being half empty ones as well.

Do you patronize people?

 

[jeff_is_smiling]

Often, especially at work. I'm a bastard at work.

How excited, if at all, are you about the announced, "Downton Abbey" movie being made?

 

[Jada59]

Not at all. Never watched the show.

Do you eat hemp nuts?

 

[just4friends]

Do you eat hemp nuts?

Nope

Have you watched 2nd season of Handmaid ‘s Tale?

 

[Azing_21]

Nope

Have you watched 2nd season of Handmaid ‘s Tale?

No, I have to get started on the 1st season!

Do you enjoy long walks on the beach?

 

[Writer_FM]

No, I have to get started on the 1st season!

Do you enjoy long walks on the beach?

Not really. My wife enjoys it, so I do it, but it makes my ankles hurt.

Have you ever had sex in the ocean?

 

[Cymru6969]

Atlantic only. It’s not all it’s cracked up to be. Passion aside,
there are issues of viscosity and sand with which to contend.
Gather ye rosebuds.....

What was the last crime or illegality you perpetrated?

I jaywalked the PCH in broad daylight, come and get me coppers!

Do you wear a name tag at work?

I don’t.

Do you wear a uniform to work?

 

[HBergeron]

I don’t.

Do you wear a uniform to work?

Oh God no, unless it's the Uniform of The Conch Republic... hahaha, and I don't even live in Key West.

How many times a week do you eat out (no, not THAT!)?

 

[Babylon_Ishtar]

Oh God no, unless it's the Uniform of The Conch Republic... hahaha, and I don't even live in Key West.

How many times a week do you eat out (no, not THAT!)?

I don't enjoy eating out. I'm a little uptight about who and how many people are touching my food. Bay Area has had big hep A outbrekas lately.
Probably eat out 3-4x a year.

What food do you enjoy eating/cooking?
