The question game

Calenture · 05-12-06 10:36:49

A Paul Smith suit - which my aunt then gave away to a charity shop while my attention was elsewhere.

And I can't think of a question. so someone can top me on the luxury goods front.

Fruit is my luxury, have you ever taken a bite of an apple and then popped a Raspberry in your mouth. you eat the apple with your teeth and just suck the Raspberry to oblivion with your tongue (or you'll get the seeds stuck in your teeth ) the combination of flavours is beautiful.

What is consciousness?

.

blissed · 05-12-06 14:06:58

Consciousness is the sum of all it's parts. and needs complexity to resolve into self awareness, like a TV picture is made of pixels you need the complexity to resolve the picture, another person will see your picture and recognise it just as another person will meet you and you'll both confirm to each other that you both have a human type of self awareness.

Does anyone know any cheap Indonesian slave chippy's? I need 12 of them

blissed · 05-12-06 23:09:54

Looks like thats were it's all happening then, how can I get there?

gala · 05-12-06 23:38:40

from bath bus station: head for the A59, left at the abandoned petrol station, ask the drunken shaman at the corner for the 'street of hard men,' and follow his instructions. do not share this information with anyone else.

blissed · 06-12-06 01:33:32

I'm just taking the train from Bath spa to Liverpool Lime street. and see if I can make it on foot to Hardman street without getting mugged.

Have you ever fallen asleep on the train and missed your stop and then caught the train back in the opposite direction and fallen asleep and missed it again, and then caught the train back in the opposite direction and fallen asleep and missed it again?

aven frey · 06-12-06 02:06:22

no, I have however had to get off the last train of the night so that I could throw up not on the train and then I had to wait in the cold to the first morning train and go straight to work.

Why am I so tired today, I had plenty of sleep?

Cate · 06-12-06 02:17:08

Because I'm stealing your energy and enthusiasm while you're not looking.

Why do banks keep such annoying hours?

Calenture · 06-12-06 03:03:34

Because they can.

But enough about me. Let us return to a more important question.

Why be an average guy any longer?

jwhite · 06-12-06 03:49:51

Objection, Blissed! I believe the legal phrase is "Asked and answered". Perhaps DeCartes was right and all perception is eternal, consciusness an illusion. I demand penance!

Move to Lake Wobegon, where everyone is above average (ok, technically, that's just the kids, but the women are smart and the men good looking).

What bit of pop culture ephemera (song, movie, tv show, etc) holds the greatest emotional charge for you? I'm thinking madelaines a la recherche....

James Taylor singing Carole King's "You've Got a Friend."

If you could be assured of never getting caught, what illegal or immoral thing -- that you concur is rightly illegal or immoral -- would you secretly do?

The_West_Wind · 06-12-06 06:25:16

Easy, rob a bank.
I need money, and banks have too much. It's a fair transaction.

According to the rules of the movie "Brewsters Millions", what would you spend One Million dollars on. and how fast do you think you could spend it?

(The rules, correct me if I am wrong:
-You have 24 hours to spend every last cent that you have, and have absolutely nothing left but the shirt on your back.
-Only a small percentage can be given to charity.
-Only a small percent can be invested, but you can not keep any dividends.
-It can not be given away.
-You must have recipts for what you buy that total One Million dollars, but have no possessions before the time is up.)

Does entertaining your friends count as giving it away? Because if not, it seems to me the obvious choice is to purchase vast amounts of absurdly luxurious food and drink, and hire vast numbers of exotic entertainers, and have one hell of a bacchanal (sp? merely in anticipation, I'm too besotted to spellcheck...).

If you could have one person's talent for one day, whose/what would it be?

Richard Branson. I would spend the day ordering my finances so that by the next day, I might be talentless but I'd be a millionaire.

I go home or spend more time there.

This is one of my favourate stupid survey thingy questions,

Would you rather have a million dollars or be able to fly?

That's a good one. I guess I've always assumed that anyone who really WANTS to have a million dollars CAN.

So I'd go for the flying. Because, in my dreams, I can fly, and it's such a wonderful feeling.

But maybe there's another way to look at this? I've been answering too many anyway -- I'm putting it back out for someone else to have a go:

It depends on exactly how I get to fly. If it's no effort then flying but if I just get the ability to flap my arms 100 times a second and can consicuently fly I'll take the money. Same if I have to think floaty thoughts in order to stay airbourne like in alot of fantasy books. I'll lose concentration and drop like a stone.

Explain your avatar or lack of

Adagio · 07-12-06 02:51:01

When I went on the quest to find an avatar I knew I was looking for something that would reflect me or be something that I would aspire to. I found some music ones (I'm a musician), some cute Tigger ones (I like Tigger and Eeyore), but when I found this one it spoke to me. I tend to see myself like the cat but one day would like to look in the mirror of my heart and see a lion.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

why/why not do you give money to charity?

jwhite · 07-12-06 04:11:48

Them what has should help them what hasn't. I'm in health care and give away a fair amount of treatment. I view it as repayment for society's investment in my education. I also feel a need to help level the playing field for those not as fortunate.

Would you rather be a forest or a tree?

Adagio · 07-12-06 04:32:25

african acacia tree to provide shade for my lion.

if you could be any animal what would you be and why?

aven frey · 07-12-06 04:47:06

I'd be a human, we are the suckiest animal but its still good to be one!!

What do you fear most?
