Questions you might not hear everyday

Thu, 20 Sep 2012 20:30:42 -0400

A. If you could get away with one murder in your lifetime without any legal, social, or emotional repercussions, would you kill someone?
B. What is your first thought when you receive a message on Tumblr, are you excited for the idea of someone from potentially the other side of the world wanting to talk to you or fearful that someone will criticize you?
C. Have you ever looked down on someone because you thought your religious views were superior?
D. Would you rather know everything the universe has to offer but in exchange lose all emotions or remain the way you are now?
E. If you could live and be healthy without sleeping or eating/drinking, which would you cut out of your life?
F. If you could take on the exact body and form of anyone else on Earth, who would it be?
G. Would you rather burn or freeze to death?
H. If it meant it would solve all world hunger, war, disease and bigotry, would you spend the rest of eternity in Hell?
I. Was the first crush in your life something you had or something someone had on you?
J. Could you live without having sex ever (again) in exchange for eternal youth?
K. Have you ever watched a full length pornographic movie?

M. If you could have the ability to manipulate matter or energy, which would you choose?
N. What was the worst nightmare you ever had?

P. All the sequels/remakes/adaptations/rip-offs in movies nowadays, good or bad?
Q. Would you rather be dirt poor and emotionally fulfilled in life or be rich beyond imagination and emotionally dissatisfied for life?
R. Do you have any (secret) feelings of bigotry to any group of people?
S. Would you rather be the only person in the world that can read minds or have everyone else in the world be able to read minds except for your own?
T. If everyone in the world would automatically only know one language, which language would you choose?
U. If you were old enough and not in a situation where it would be inappropriate, would you sleep with one of your (past) school teachers/professors?
V. A world without religion, good, bad, neutral?
W. The men's rights movement, legitimate cause or laughable, and why?
X. You can eliminate one of your five senses to substantially strengthen the others, which one and would you do it?
Y. Do looks mean anything to you? Don't lie, could you fall in love with someone you thought was ugly?
Z. Can you understand the mindset and logic used by the opposite spiritual opinion? An atheist understanding the belief in a higher power and vice versa.

Patient

smart, energetic, patient

Actually… that totally describes me fangirling over this unbelievable webcomic! The storyline is very complicated, and requires a lot of analysis to pick up on everything, I’m really excited over pretty much every moment of the 10+ year history, it’s amazing how some threads are seemingly lost for 6 years but are eventually explained…

…okay, nevermind. You’d have to read it to understand. Send me an ask if you want…

(also, yes, totally a male fangirl. wait… boy fangirl. wait… okay, so maybe I don’t remember which term usually applies to sex, and which to gender… and maybe I don’t think it makes perfect sense that one is one and the other the other. but nevertheless… I’m anatomically male, and I identify as a fangirl. so hah.)

Lady Gaga's Burqa

a summery of what I’ve heard lately (correct me if I’m wrong): When someone is forced into a Burqa, it is oppression. When someone wears a Burqa of her own free will, it is empowering. When someone wears a Burqa without understanding its significance, it is offensive.

I think that that is a reasonable summery, but what do I know? not much. that is for sure.

Tagged by the glorious where-my-love-grows

Rule 1 - Post the rules.

Rule 2 - Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and then make 11 new ones.

Rule 3 - Tag 11 people and link them to your post.

Rule 4 - Let them know you’ve tagged them.

Read More

There was no rule 5 - follow the rules.

So I won’t.

Anyway…

1. what is your favorite color?

I don’t really have one. I love the way certain colors work together, like gold and red or shades of green when leaves’ shadows blend together.

2. If you could have a conversation with one author, dead or alive, who would it be?

As tempting as my favorite fantasy authors are (T.A. Barron, The Lost Years of Merlin), honestly I would have to say Orson Scott Card (Speaker for the Dead) because while I think fantasy speaks for itself… …finish this sentence, someone who actually likes Speaker, please.

3. have you ever recited poetry for someone?

Not for any one person, no. But I recited my poem when I won a poetry prize, and that was fun.

4. what is the last movie you watched?

I think that was when I rewatched Avatar (James Cameron’s) with my family. I don’t watch that many movies.

5. Who do you think is the most beautiful person in the world?

[redacted]

6. When is the last time you talked to a family member? what did you talk about?

I talked to my mom… yesterday evening? About… getting tickets for a play? I think…

7. top three tv shows

Firefly, *pauses* …umm, and… *long pause* Well, I like what I’ve seen of Avatar and Glee, I suppose.

8. favorite actress

Hmm, probably Karen G - well, then again, I like her when she’s just herself. Meh, I guess it still counts. Best actress, though? Hard one…

9. one person you admire

Ale— ahem. Right. A non-obvious answer… Julia.

10. Do you like any foreign music?

What’s “foreign”? I don’t know that word with relation to music… Oh, well, languages I don’t understand, I guess. Hmm… Vocaloids, mostly. And Les Mis.

11. have you ever studied a language other than your first language? what was it?

Spanish, Mandarin Chinese.

if (reader.isProgrammer()) {

System.out.println(“Also Java and python.”);

}

hellboundwitch:

Oh, self, why do you have such a contrary nature? Every time I see this there’s a part of me that’s like, “Oh, you mean ~Mother Gaia~ doesn’t care what I do to the planet? Fucking sweet, man! No more worrying about littering, or recycling, I’ma cut down all the trees…I mean, shit, fuck that! Blow the whole planet up! Gaia don’t care!”

I mean, after all, humans are only fucking ourselves over, right?

SO CONTRARY.

Hmm. Reblogged mostly for the Humon, but that’s an interesting point too.

“The House of Lords must go - not be reformed, not be replaced, not be reborn in some nominated life-after-death patronage paradise, just closed down, abolished, finished.”

Yeah! Down with the aristocracy! (Unless I get to be a part of it, then…)

(looks at his reflection in the palace wall) AAAAAAAAAH!

I feel like this has a deep symbolic significance… I just can’t quite place what that significance is.

“[to Kraven, after being awakened by the blood of the lycan Singe] The blood memories of this wretched creature have shown me that your treachery knows no bounds.”

*sigh*

matthen:

Draw a perfect triangle on a piece of paper, and then draw around the triangle free-hand. Try to make each new shape closely match the previous one, including its imperfections. You’ll find wavy patterns developing (just like doing the same with straight lines) which makes a nice picture. But can you manage to do all this, with the ultimate goal that after 50 lines you will reach a perfect square? This animation shows a computer program having a go. [code]

This blog makes me rage so hard.

Do none of these people remember childhood? Your ability to control your child’s interests doesn’t change because what you want them to like is ~cool~.
