One minor instance in a parking lot. While the traffic was thick I was waiting in a line of cars and a guy backed out of a stall and tapped the side of my car… didn’t do any damage though. Do you ever make people laugh at your own expense? (Making fun of yourself) ---

Way too often. I’m finally learning that it only calls attention to my faults. Do you have a lucky charm? ---

No, I don’t even have a car. (Re the other thing: trust me, I can!) Do you like Red Bull (wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiingz!:D)? ---

Yes… I prefer the original Full Throttle though… keeps me going. Do you get sick often? ---

No, I have pretty good health, and something of a hand-washing fetish. Did you go to worship services for Easter or Passover this week? ---

Nope. I usually only go to church for Christmas, weddings and funerals. Are you a religious person? ---

NO. I distrust religion of any sort. Have you ever been burgled? ---

Besides my own life, no. (yes, I know I already used that joke in this thread. But you guys keep setting it up !) Ever driven a go-kart ? ---

Yes, two summers ago. It was a lot of fun, despite the noise. Ever been miniature or putt-putt golfing? ---

Ooooooooooooooooooooh yeah! It’s absolutely awesome! Feels like you’re doing a million km an hour, when you’re in fact doing maybe 20. Do you follow football (the proper kind)? ---

Used to go all the time when I was a kid. Haven’t been for a loooooooong time. Ever said something mean about a person only to realize they were right there? ---

Not outright mean, but silly and a bit off-color. I was 13. Embarassed the poop out of me. Played minigolf once, 'twas a lot of fun. Do you own and/or use an exercise bike? ---

No. I have a real bike, though, which I use pretty often when weather permits. Are you a member of a gym or exercise center? ---

Nope. Never have been… I’d go as a guest with friends sometimes. Ever driven past 130mph? (By driven, I mean you as the driver, not a passenger) ---

That’s about 200 km/h right? Yes - in a Merc C-class on a Swedish highway, in a rush to a dinner party. And there was no traffic. Does Angelina Jolie have too big lips? ---
