451-500

[serene]

451. What do you do for exercise?

Walk a lot.

452. Would you rather have a strict teacher with a sense of humor or a lenient teacher that doesn't teach?

The former. At first, I thought this was a trick question.

453. If you ever have a baby what might you want to name it?

Cute-poet-chick and I had settled on Absorbine, Jr.

454. If you won free tickets to a concert from a radio show and had to choose between Inxs, Poison, Blondie and Moby, which would you choose?

Blondie, because someotherguy's a big fan.

455. Are you a good cook?

Yeah, I do okay.

456. Do you prefer when things come with no assembly required, even if they are a bit more expensive?

Sometimes, if it's a lot of heavy lifting, but for the most part, I like putting things together.

457. Start a sentence with the words: what if

What if all the people you're spending time with solely because you feel obligated are going to be just as dead in a hundred years as you are. Is it still worth it?

458. Are you more spontaneous and unpredictable or loyal and routine?

Hmm. I guess the latter, but I'm really not sure.

459. What is the highest number you can count to in your head?

If I had the time, 999 decillion, 999 nonillion, 999 octilion, 999 septillion, 999 sextillion, 999 quintillion, 999 quadrillion, 999 trillion, 999 billion, 999 million, 999 thousand, nine hundred ninety-nine.

460. How do you go about losing weight?

I don't, not on purpose anyway. I kind of like how I look.

461. Do you have street smarts?

NO. None.

462. Do you have a lot of common sense?

I think so, but I think most people probably think that of themselves.

463. What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

It varies, but I really like coffee and mango. Not together.

464. What's your favorite movie that involves dancing?

Probably Dirty Dancing, but I also liked Grease, Xanadu, A Chorus Line, and lots of others.

465. Would you ever want to become a guest on a talk show? If yes what would the show's theme be?

Nah. I don't crave fame.

466. Do you like the way you look naked?

Yes. (I have days when this is less true than other days, but in general, yeah.)

467. Have you ever dissected an animal?

Yes.

468. Who do you know who is brilliant?

My father. Lots of other people. LOTS.

469. Who do you know who is dull?

Why on earth would I tell the world someone was dull?

470. Do you ever think about time travel?

Sure.

471. What is one interesting fact you know?

While at my last check, more than 3,000 US military personnel had been reported dead in the Iraq war, that pales in comparison with the number of wounded (more than 25,000), which in turn doesn't come close to the number of Iraq's civilian casualties (something like 70,000).

472. Do you talk to yourself?

Yep.

Do you talk to your pets?

No, because I don't have pets, but I do talk to my step-pets, and to other people's pets.

473. Do you believe that humankind has a future in space (will we live there some day)?

Yes.

474. Would you rather wear clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty or more delicate outfits?

I don't mind getting more delicate outfits dirty. I like wearing fancy stuff for everyday wear.

475. How do you 'live life to the fullest'?

Face my fears. Try to be the best me. Embrace honesty even when it's painful. Likewise compassion. Cut bait on stuff that doesn't make me happy.

476. Are you sloppy or a neat freak?

I'm a natural slob.

477. Would you rather have a trunk full of nickels or half a trunk full of dimes?

Don't make me do math right now.

478. What is the worst mistake you've ever made?

Probably thinking I needed a second job badly enough to work graveyard shift all alone in a 7-Eleven with no security camera.

479. Are you in good health?

No, and that kind of pisses me off, but I'm working on it.

480. Are you patriotic?

Yes. I am a patriotic person who is angry with my government.

Let's play fact or crap.

No, thanks. I'll leave the questions in, but I'm not in the mood to answer them.

Is it a fact? Or is it crap?
