Truth or truth game

[Synchronicity]

Not compared to most teas, but otherwise yes.

How about black tea?

[Geodess]

i love black teas.. especially the lapsong souchang... it is smoked over white pine and fills my office with the smell of campfire... it has oddly, become the signature scent of my office...

do you intentionally manipulate body language to get what you want...??

[jonnyb]

I stand up straight and use a serious look to avert others from approaching me. It works on all except those who know me well.

Same ?

[Geodess]

no, but i was just sent an very detailed body language ebook from my friendly intj upstairs with the subject line - i love to fuck with people some times.. so maybe in the very near future when i learn the secrets...


do you believe making the decision to give into something tempting is the same as having no self control? ie: i could say no to having that chocolate but i don't want to today..

[jonnyb]

Not necessarily. If I don't want to give into something or have planned prior that I want to elliminate something from my life and then give into it, that is what I think is lack of self control.

Do you think someone working hard and spending a great amount of time mastering a skill makes that skill more valuable to the general populace as compared with someone who easily understands and perfects the same skill without a lot of time or effort?

[Harmony]

Not necessarily... I think they might VALUE that skill more than the person it just comes naturally to, but I'm not sure others would see it the same way.

Any exciting plans this weekend?

[Geodess]

nope, working - biggest excitement will be watching sunny in philly during lunch hour...

what life lesson did you learn yesterday?

[Harmony]

Its always better to ask rather than just wonder if you are on the right track. (College course research issue)

Do you wear jewelry ?

[Geodess]

not everyday - and when i do they tend to be real rock jewelry... my favorite piece is one that is made with granite beads from around my local lake and copper from a community on the arctic coast...

do you have a favorite piece of jewelry?

[nowt]

The closest I get to jewelry is a silver pocketwatch, rarely worn.

Who is the last person you mentally undressed?

[Luciferi]

65 mg in the form of Excedrin tablets. I may need another one.

What are your vices? (like coffee drinking, smoking, porn, etc)

[larkin]

Oh, sloth, definitely. I post here, don't I? I don't have tons of bad habits outside of that, or at least they've gotten less noticeable, and isn't that enough?

Along those lines, but framed a little differently, what are your top three deadly sins? (After sloth, I'm going to add lust and pride.)

[Luciferi]

Definitely sloth. Sometimes pride (What? I'm an INTJ!). And for third place, probably tied between lust or gluttony, but only because the other that are left almost never describe me, while these sometimes do.

Same Q!

[jonnyb]

Pride, Pride and Pride.

If you saw a puddle of water on the floor where you worked, would you more likely:

a-walk around it and leave it
b-mop it up
c-call someone to mop it up
d-smear it around and hope a coworker slipped on it
e-purposly slip on it and feign injury

You can only choose from this list.

[Geodess]

seeing that, i threw water at a coworker today ( it was justified) .. and wiped it up i would say B..

most unprofessional moment in recent memory... asked for obvious reasons

[jonnyb]

I told a Dr that I rubbed his face mask on my nards. And you thought swine flu was scary.

Do you believe in ghosts?

[Nikita]

nope, but i have friends who do

What are you afraid of, that you are also embarrassed to be afraid of?

Which historical period would you remove from history, if you could?

[niffer]

I don't have an embarrassing fear. My only real fear is being trapped. I have a fear-like reaction to bugs followed quickly by a kill it, kill it a lot reaction.


Which historical period would you remove from history, if you could?

I would remove the part in European history where people burned witches. Shitty literature also came from that time.

What did you want to be when you grew up at age 13?

[larkin]

National Geographic Photographer. I tried hard.

What about when you were 5?

[Synchronicity]

Probably a starship captain. Unfortunately, we haven't made as much scientific progress in the past 17 years as I had hoped back then.

Same question.

[runoverazebra]

Cookie Monster.

And another?

[themuzicman]

oddly enough, an astronomer.

What do you want to be when you grow up now?

[Aurelia]

If I could do things over again, I'd skip over the medical field and become an architect.

Same question.

[themuzicman]

I'm hoping to become a teaching pastor or a professor of biblical studies.

And another.

What quality do you admire most in a person?

[jonnyb]

My iPod is named iVan. The one before that was iSaac
Aren't I so clever?

What is the best possible name for a dog?

[Geodess]

[El Cas]

something complete opposite to their type.
i.e. Killer for a chihuahua, Fluffy for a pitbull.

What is the meaninig of life?

[jonnyb]

There is no meaning other than the one you asign to it.

Have you ever held another person's glass eye?

[El Cas]

no, but I have held someones dentures.

What is worst, death by fire or death by drowning?

[jonnyb]

Fire....T'would take longer and more painful for the fire to reach vital/ pass out points that to drown.

Same ?, what would you rather from above?

[MakingIn]

I feel like being on fire makes for a better story, but I really like water, so I'm going to go with drowning.

Describe your ideal retirement.

[themuzicman]

Professor Emeritus, where I teach 4 classes per year, and spend the remainder of the time teaching Church ministers and lay leaders to be better leaders and better able to understand and communicate the message of the bible.

Same Q

[MakingIn]

I have been very successful in both writing and science, and retire with a load of money. I then spend my retirement reading, traveling, and changing people's lives on an individual basis. I would just dump money in the laps of people who I thought deserved it. Also, I'd go to Palestine and start a giant company (knowing full well it probably wouldn't make profit) so that those people could have jobs. Once my money was almost gone, I would spend the rest of my days doing lots of drugs, having sex with strangers, and sitting on the beach basically being hedonistic until my lifestyle or something else killed me.

If you could immediately make one idea disappear from existence forever, what idea would that be?

[Nikita]

the belief in the existence of a higher power

Are you afraid of death?

[themuzicman]

No. Death is just the beginning.

Same Q

[Nikita]

somehow I think death is the easy part, so no - my only possible death-related fear would be that one day i might give up on life; i loathe the day i no longer welcome a challenge!


What is the most ridiculous thing (for good or for ill) that has happened to you/that you have dealt with recently?

[Yardy]

I tried to transfer to a new college, but they hadn't recieved my transcript from my old college yet. I had a copy but they wouldn't take my transcript unless it was faxed from my old college. So I called my college and they wouldn't fax it unless I was there. So I went all the way BACK to my Old college and they handed me my transcript and told me to fax it.

Who do you love the most?

[themuzicman]

My wife.

Same Q

[runoverazebra]

My fiance.

And another?

[stacyr201]

My cousin, who is like a little sister to me.

[themuzicman]

I hear the 1920s were roaring...

Are you 100% truthful in posting in this thread?

[ReasoningMind]

do you think caves are interesting exciting or scary ?

[themuzicman]

Interesting... as long as I'm not stuck in one..

What insignificant thing freaks you out the most?

[Yardy]

Setting a drinking glass down on a piece of paper.

No, as I've never even heard of them.

Name 3 things on your Bucket List, if you were to write one right now.

2. I can't think of any others!

What should you have stopped doing by now?

[Mint]

Procrastination...what else?

What's the last book you didn't finish reading?

Good answer.

Neal Stephenson's "Quicksilver"

Which mythical figure are you most like?

[themuzicman]

Dr. Frankenstein?

[ReasoningMind]

Pallas Athena

Same question.

[MartinH]

Mr Vane (from Lilith)

Go on, we'll have it again...

[larkin]

Oh, Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing.
*oh, mythical figure, umm, whoops. I have a selective reading problem it, seems.*
Same question, sure.

[NoStoneUnturned]

A Vampire.

Would you prefer to live in a world where everybody spoke the same language?

[SelfMadeBum]

Yes. There are many Italian men to sex, and I suck at foreign languages.

Same.

[themuzicman]

It would (and would have) solve a lot of cultural conflict issues, but having studied a few languages, it is often possible to say something more accurately or more elegantly in a language other than English.

What do you think would bring world peace?

[SelfMadeBum]

More cookies for everyone.

Same.

[themuzicman]

I don't think world peace is possible in this stage of humanity.

Same Q

[stacyr201]

I don't see it as possible at this time either, actually I don't ever foresee it happening. there is always someone who disagrees with how something is run and that will always cause a crisis for world peace. It's a nice idea that we can work toward but I don't think it will happen.

Same Q

[MartinH]

Alien invasion.

What do you think will precipitate a breakdown of civilisation?

[themuzicman]

I don't think civilization can break down completely. I'm with Hobbes in that people agree to governments in order to protect themselves from each other, and if necessary, governments will keep civilized order. In Hobbes' philosophy, potentially ALL human rights can be given up to the sovereign for security.

I suppose that might be a breakdown in and of itself.

Same Q

[runoverazebra]

Civilization's own stupidity.

What's the best thing that ever happened to you?

[Synchronicity]

Getting engaged to a beautiful, intelligent, independent woman ;)

[stacyr201]

Never.

Favorite toy/game growing up?

[Nemesis]

I loved the Duck Tails NES games!

What is most inappropriate thing you have said to an authority figure?

[jonnyb]

Fuck off come readily to mind. Used on numerous occassions.

Same (?)

[paperclip]

"I can't believe you ever got your teaching degree."

How long do you want to live?

[Anreader]

I want to live... 2 days less than I already have.

If given the choice, how would you choose to die?

[jonnyb]

While doing something I enjoy. I have already accepted my unpredictable demise. I just need to figure out how to best enjoy the time between it and now.

Have you ever had to clean up another person's pooh who wasn't related to you?

[runoverazebra]

Only if you count the babies that I was babysitting.

What's the most disgusting thing you've ever cleaned up?

[jonnyb]

Infected cow, post still birth amniotic fluid with chunks of solidified puss in it. The calf was dead and rotting inside its mother for ~ 1 month....so much so that when we tried to pull the calf's leg, it pulled right off. Rankest smell I ever smelled.....worse than GI bleeds. I burned my clothes after that as they get some of the yummy juices on them. I did not want to attempt to even wash them as I didn't want the smell to permeate through the house.

Same ?

[Seriously]

I'm not big on cleaning up icky stuff. Probably cat or kid vomit.

Do you ever wish you were a different type?

[themuzicman]

In specific circumstances, maybe, but not in general.

Do you wish your parents knew your MBTI and what it meant when you were growing up?

[Danny]

Yes.

Have you ever taken revenge on someone in a serious manner, even breaking the law perhaps?

[MartinH]

Not really, it wouldn't have helped them.

If you had a religion other than the one you have (or the lack of one you have), which one would you like?

EDIT: oops. Nope, not really one for overt revenge. I do take pleasure when bad things happen to them though.

[themuzicman]

I guess I would go with atheism.

What rule or rules do you wish people would follow when interacting with you?

[Danny]

Don't make assumptions; listen and think.

Do you have favorites? Children, siblings, parents; or are you the favorite?

[themuzicman]

No and no.

If you could start your own business, what would it be?

[MartinH]

No and no.

If you could start your own business, what would it be?

You can, I have. Internet based backup, professional services, reselling Montessori education equipment so far.

If the question was "if you could start your own business and have it be successful, what would it be?" - possibly running a big comfy hotel in a beautiful place.

What's your favourite type of body of water?

[PunkinA]

I enjoy small rivers. Larger than someone could jump across, but slow enough current to swim in.

Have you ever plotted against somebody?

[Synchronicity]

Not the malicious sort of plotting. More the practical joke/surprise birthday party sort of plotting.

What sort of shoes do you like to wear?

[ReasoningMind]

Boots or sports shoes. Comfy and sturdy. I don't have high heels.

Have you ever waited for the next player because you wanted to avoid the question?

[Danny]

Yes.

Which question have you avoided?

[MartinH]

Best thing that ever happened to you.

Same question.

[Danny]

Don't remember.

What's the best thing that ever happened to you that's NOT of a sexual nature?

[jonnyb]

I was born....well...I'm not to sure that isn't of a sexual nature....um....I'll go with it for now.

The thing you do the best?

[ReasoningMind]

Reading.

Same question.

[themuzicman]

Teach... Or administer a database...

What thing do you do well that you do not enjoy doing?

[MartinH]

Lying and persuading people of things that aren't in their interests.

Same q.

[themuzicman]

Computer programming (Burns me out.. that's why I;m a DBA now)

If you could mandate that everyone in your country do something regularly, what would it be?

[ReasoningMind]

Question.

What would you do if you found out you were adopted?

[themuzicman]

Nothing. Probably.

sAme Q

[MartinH]

Nod sagely as it's an explanation as to why I'm so different to most of my family. And be confused as to why they kinda look like me.

Do you like short films?

[Jonathan Brewer]

Yes, often more than I like the longer ones. I haven't the patience to watch a feature length movie most of the time.


What is your "optimal" time? In other words, at what point of the day do you tend to function the best (do your best work, etc.)?

[jonnyb]

~ One hour after waking up.

Same

[Jonathan Brewer]

Between 10:00pm and 3:00am.


Same question - What is your "optimal" time? In other words, at what point of the day do you tend to function the best (do your best work, etc.)?

[Nikita]

sometime in the middle of the night, usually...can't pinpoint an hour


If you didn't have heat in your home and your doors and windows lacked weather stripping and tight closure, how would you warm up your home, assuming no electricity?

[MartinH]

Early on in the morning and again after 11 pm.

What's the most hair you would allow yourself to have?

Edit: Oops, SimulPost - sex or hotel, depending on whether or not the kids we with us. (Hotel if so, under the duvet for a week if not)

[Jonathan Brewer]

If you didn't have heat in your home and your doors and windows lacked weather stripping and tight closure, how would you warm up your home, assuming no electricity?

Beside from engineering some sort of fire and chimney system, I would stick to sleeping completely nude, likely with a head cap, and in extreme cases, keep the entire family in one bed. When not in bed I'd be sure to be fully dressed being careful to keep my head covered.

What's the most hair you would allow yourself to have?

On my head or elsewhere? I'm not overly fond of body hair and tend to trim a great deal of it. I don't think I would ever be comfortable with the hair on my head reaching as far as my shoulders, nor my beard growing to the point it dangled.


What's the largest age difference you would consider in an intimate relationship?

[SelfMadeBum]

20 years.

Same.

[Jonathan Brewer]

Probably in the "ten years" range, but I suppose I could step outside of such boundaries if there was something "really special" about them.

Same question - What's the largest age difference you would consider in an intimate relationship?

[MartinH]

My parents had 25 years, I wouldn't go to more than 20 I think. And I'd be realistic about the chances of it lasting.

Edit: same Q.

[themuzicman]

probably not more than 2 or 3 older.. For younger, I'm a bit more liberal.

If you had to change one letter in your MTBI (and have the resultant personality) which would you change?

[nowt]

INTp-- j/p are weebles wobbling, for me, anyway.

If you had to add a fifth scalar to the MBTI, what would it be?

[themuzicman]

Something like "common sense" or "ability to use wisdom".

Same Q

[jonnyb]

Functionability in the world and I would make the initials C / K

Have you ever slept in a snow cave? If not, desire to? If not, why?

[Paradigm]

No. Yes, it sounds intriguing.

Do you consider yourself superstitious? If so, what about?

[Nikita]

nope


What is the worst advice you've ever been given?

[stacyr201]

It is okay to resort to physical violence to get your point across. Advice to a 90 lb female, didn't go over so well.

Same Q.

[Jonathan Brewer]

"Just wait for success. It'll come on its own. There's no reason to work so hard for it."


What is the worst advice you have given?

[jonnyb]

Don't shoot yourself.

Same ?

[Jonathan Brewer]

"Never stop believing."


What's your opinion on "the purpose" of life?

Fly helicopters.

Do you think death is a bad thing? Why (not)?

[trekie4ever]

What is your most memorable Halloween costume?

I was 6 and I was Peter Pan. My mom made the costume from different fabrics. It was awesome.

What's the most terrible thing you've done to a loved one?

[themuzicman]

Lied to them.

How do you define love?

[Jonathan Brewer]

Do you think death is a bad thing? Why (not)?

No, it's as much a part of life as being born.

What's the most terrible thing you've done to a loved one?

Lied to them to keep them happy.

How do you define love?

I don't, I would consider that extremely presumptuous.


Do you believe the Loch Ness Monster is real?

[Paradigm]

No. Though, I won't argue that there mightn't be some truth to it, but not an actual Loch Ness Monster.

Same Q

[daydreamer]

getting a credit card in my college roommates name, where he'd be responsible for the bill but i could make charges. i did this right in front of him at the mall while he wasn't paying attention, and was picking out his "free gift".

i never used the card but he was very surprised when the statement came in the mail to him for a card he didn't know he had. lol when we read the small print we found out the card came with a free 3 month trial of insurance, which included 100,000 coverage if either of us got killed by public transportation. later that day we were walking in the city and he threatened jokingly to shove me in front of the bus LOL we were always pulling pranks on each other it was kind of a competition.

Martin's question....

What is the biggest health concern you ahve right now?

[MartinH]

My brother got sent to hospital with chest pains yesterday and walked out due to not being arsed to wait for the doctor to come back with the ECG results...

My other question - of the things you secretly wish would happen to you, what's the most recent?

[larkin]

Martin, you wrote "secretly", when everyone knows if you write it out it's less likely to happen. :p

I'll settle for not-so-secretly - I've wanted a new assignment for a while, but it's not going to happen until after the end of the year. I've long needed to get out of town.

Do you make New Year's Resolutions, and if so how are you doing on them?

[Luciferi]

I don't usually make resolutions, but last year I told myself I wanted to read at least an hour a day. That lasted about two months and then I was back to traveling for work and now I find I don't have time. :-(

What resolution do you plan to make for next year, if any?

[MartinH]

Never have, never will.

I figure it's just the next harry Potter craze.... Just geared more towards girls screaming and yelling like idiots.... And i think the whole Team Edward/Team Jacob thing is ridiculous.
