Absolutely. Bob Dylan is a national treasure. You ever been kicked in the head by a bull? (extra points if you can name the movie that quote is from) ---

Kicked, yes. Kicked in the head, no… fortunately… Do you know how to ride a horse? ---

No. I’m allergic, although I did sit on one as it was led around when I was ~4. Have you been to a strip club recently? ---

No, not recently. I think the last time I was in a strip club was around Nov last year… Have you ever quit a job without giving notice prior to leaving? ---

No. Is it cold outside right now, where you live? ---

It’s about 5c but sunny, so I’d say no. Do you enjoy swimming? ---

Not so much. 83 degrees Fahrenheit. 🙂 Do you carry an umbrella? ---

Not so much carry as chase one that’s flying a few feet in front of me due to the winds that always accompany rain. Rain doesn’t fall from above here, it falls sideways. But generally, no. How about that swimming? ---

I like swimming, but only in swimming pools, not the ocean. I enjoyed the ocean growing up but after becoming more educated on it I’d rather leave it alone for the most part… Do people think you’re a LOUD person? ---

No. Most people know that when I raise my voice it’s a Very Bad Thing. Have you heard “Video Killed the Radio Star” by The Buggles lately? ---

No, but now that you mention it…gah!!! Have you ever streaked? ---

Not that I recall. Of course, if I did I was probably quite drunk. Have you ever been fired (not laid off)? ---

No. Have you ever ROFL’d in real life? ---

I’ve ROFF’d, if that counts! Are you shy? ---

Not really. I’m quiet for a bit, but not shy. Is Friends better than Seinfeld? ---

They are both great shows but overall Friends is a more entertaining show, imo. Can you do unusual things with your body, or is it special in any way? (Double-jointed, move your ears, very flexible, etc) ---

Yes, I can hold my boobs to my nose! (One boob at a time.) Do you have any tattoos? [Hijack]You rolled on the floor farting, **wonderlust**?[/Hijack] ---

No, the wife would skin me alive if I came home with a tattoo. Each time we pass a tattoo parlor, I always ask her if she wants one, a running joke she’s thoroughly sick of by now. Do you like Sudoku puzzles? ---

No, but my wife is fond of them. Did you just see _The Godfather_ for the first time tonight, as I did? ---

No, I saw it when it first came out. (The book is excellent, too.) Have you ever been involved in a fender-bender? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/get-to-know-each-other/489836.md?page=28) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/get-to-know-each-other/489836.md?page=30)
