This was slipping off the front page so I thought I’d rescue it, as I feel like talking about myself today. FunkySpaceCowboy to the rescue! 
**1. Given the ability to project yourself into the future, but not to return, would you do so? Would you go if you could take someone along? ** - Yes! I’d prefer to take a friend along for the ride but I’d go it alone if I had to.
**2. Five hundred years from now, only one book which exists today will still be available. Which book should it be? ** The Unabridged OED. While there are other works of far greater importance to our civilisation none of them can stand on their own as a comprehensive description of Western Civilisation. The dictionary though, contains the history of our language, which will give our ancestors more insight into who we were than any other single volume of work.
**3. If a movie were made about your life, what would the theme song be? ** The drinking song from * La Traviata *
**4. For $20,000 would you go for three months without washing, brushing your teeth, or using deodorant? You could not explain your reason to anyone. (Assume that there would be no long-term effect on your career.) ** Err not for $20K, my career may be unharmed but my health and freindships would suffer. Maybe for a $100K
**5. If you saw someone shoplifting in an exclusive store, what would you do? ** If I caught someone shop lifting at my local Home Brew Supply Store I’d charge at them arms akimbo screaming like an enraged hillbilly and begin pummeling them with bags of malted barley.
**6. Have you ever disliked someone for being luckier, more successful, or more attractive than you? ** I’ve disliked people who are all of those things but not because of those things. Does that count?
**7. Is there anything you’d willingly give your life for? ** Yes, but I’m not telling what.
8. Have you ever genuinely wanted to kill someone, or wished someone dead? Do you mean someone specific or just like in general?
9. If you were God for a day, what would you do? Being an atheist and all if I woke up one morning and was a god I’d probably disappear in a puff of logic. If I managed to survive I’d abuse my god powers for my own amusement and bend the universe to my will. I’d also destroy the diety foolish enough to grant me his/her power because I wouldn’t want to give it back.
**10. If you could be the parent of one famous person, who would you want it to be? ** George W. Bush so I could have raised him to be a short order cook or something else where he couldn’t do much harm.
**11. How many of your friendships have lasted more than 10 years? ** One. But, I’m only 25 and grew up in a Air Force family so I moved around a lot as a kid. I have a few others approaching the 10 year mark…
12. If at birth you could select the profession your child would eventually pursue, would you do so? N/A I don’t intend on breeding.
**13. How do you know when you’re in love? ** Don’t know. I thought I was once but it turned out to just be hormones. I’ll get back you.
Interesting…
- Stay in the future: No.
2.One book for all time: A very good dictionary.
3.Theme song : Walking on Sunshine or something equally hapy and boppy.
-
No washing etc for $20,000: No, as the cost to have my teeth and body parts fixed wuld cost me nearly $20,000.
-
Shoplifting: Laugh and go on my way.
-
Disliked someone: Yes
-
Give my life for: Sometimes I think I’d do it for my beloved… but basically no!
-
Wished someone dead: No, although I’ve really hated someone, death is more extreme than the feelings I have.
9.God for a day: It’s chliche but I’d right some wrongs, like starving children and cancer and give some random poor folks a break. Plus I’d give myself unbelievable musical talent with every instrument and some cash for life.
-
Parent of a famous person: Tough one. Someone happy and rich. Parents always like to see their kids happy, and I’d like to benifit from the rich part. Perhaps Tiger Woods or Robin Williams.
-
10 year friendships: one or two. Up until recently I could have said one really speacial one, but it ended after 16 years because I told her I was gay. But my 2 best friends I’ve only known for 2 and 5 years.
12.Career of child: I probably won’t breed either but in fantasy, a successful inventor.
- Love: Ummm… when their wellbeing sometimes overrides yours? or when not being with them lacks quality? or… who knows, and better yet who can describe it. I’m in love but I don’t know why or how.
Man now you’ve got me thinking too early in the morning.
- Given the ability to project yourself into the future, but not to return, would you do so? Would you go if you could take someone along?
I would go as an excuse to take someone along. Not sure who that person would be but she’d definately be female, young, pretty, smart, and funny.
- Five hundred years from now, only one book which exists today will still be available. Which book should it be?
an Encyclopedia
4. For $20,000 would you go for three months without washing, brushing your teeth, or using deodorant? You could not explain your reason to anyone. (Assume that there would be no long-term effect on your career.)
No.
- If you saw someone shoplifting in an exclusive store, what would you do?
Quietly inform a shop assistant or guard.
- Have you ever disliked someone for being luckier, more successful, or more attractive than you?
No. I admire people like that.
- Is there anything you’d willingly give your life for?
Not yet.

Probably in moments of rage as a youngster.

?

Many.
- If at birth you could select the profession your child would eventually pursue, would you do so?
No.
- How do you know when you’re in love?
You can’t know anything. It is satisfactory to merely think it. “Not sure if this is love or not, but it sure is a great feeling!”
Post your answers please:
OK
Ladyrose, the material you posted without any attribution whatsoever appears on a few websites that have it shown as copyrighted. Since we already had this conversation (about posting copyrighted materials, helpful suggestions which you obviously haven’t paid any fucking attention whatsoever to), and since you pulled a dramatic “I’m never coming back” not two days ago, I’m going to be a real good sport, and help you out a bit.
Buh-bye.
That was kind of you to help her out like that. What nice mods we have here.
Vilf biers for you!
