No famous ones!
It would be hard enough staying awake to learn about rocket science


Do you bruise easily

No. Because I eat way too much cheese I have a titanium frame and a hide that would stop a .22.

Did you enjoy school?

sbsquarepants

Not at the time. But in hindsight...... it wasn't half bad.

Do you like learning?

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

I like learning about things I'm interested in but most of my 'interests' aren't very intellectual.


Why does cheese help you not bruise

Do you like learning?

I sure do. But at this hour of my life I have to be interested in the subject matter or else have a definite use for it, otherwise I couldn't be hooped.

What was the last truly interesting thing you learned?

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

Baking soda makes ants explode if you mix it with icing sugar


Is that cruel

Wichita Lineman

Cilla Black was buddies with The Beatles.

Have you a favourite Beatles song?

Jamaican Me Crazy

I always liked Yesterday

How did you do in your Leaving Cert?

I did in in 1989, and made a bit of a horlicks of it. I didn't fail anything, just performed with notable lacklustre in the few subjects I was interested in. The whole "school" way of doing things didn't suit my personality. I did it again the following year, at the age of eighteen and only doing three subjects - physics, chemistry and maths - while working part-time. That was rather better. :pac:

Is there too much pressure on kids these days, not just with the likes of the LC but overall?

sbsquarepants

Average - can't remember exactly it was 20 years ago.

Would you like to be a teacher? (or are you one?)

5 honours - 420 points I think.

If you could go back to when you were 18 what one thing in life would you do differently (only answer if you are over 30)?

Sorry didn't see you sneak in there!

I think there's much less pressure than on previous generations. No one is getting shoved up chimneys these days.

what age did you start working first?

Jamaican Me Crazy

21 in 2004, I never worked until I graduated from college

Did you work through college or did your parents support you?

sbsquarepants

I swindled the dole through college. It's the only time I've consistently had spare cash!

Have you ever cheated the system?

Jamaican Me Crazy

No, never.

Would you report someone for SW fraud?

sbsquarepants

Probably not. It would be a tad hypocritical:D

Would you?

Jamaican Me Crazy

Probably not. What goes around comes around. I just complain behind their backs and be super passive aggressive about it

Have you ever been in counselling?

sbsquarepants

No. Haven't had any major traumas so far. I'm not sure it would be for me anyway. I'm more of a keep it all in man myself!

Are you a private or wear your heart on your sleeve type?

kissmequick

Aaaaaaaaaaam golly I don't know really probably more private but would have no qualms about bawling my eyes out if something upset me that much, don't care who's watching! Guess it just depends on what!


What's for dindins?

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

I had absolute muck for dinner which was dried up chicken water soaked potatoes lukewarm gravy and shrivelled up veg

What is the worst thing that you ever did?

clappyhappy

Oh god, they all seem so trivial now, at the time thought they were the worst things ever.

Have you watched breaking bad?

Riesen_Meal

As far as the start of season 4, and I watched it from the beginning, I just got a pain in my hole waiting for the rest of the episodes, I will finish it one day!

What was the last good book you read?

Wichita Lineman

Last of the Summer Wine - a book about the long running TV series.

Have you ever been to Holmfirth where it's filmed?

Emmacash

Sure. My Nan owns a mobile home there.


Do you think it's strange for someone to be addicted to 'murder, she wrote' ?

Wichita Lineman

No. But then I like all sorts of old tv stuff.

Have you ever gone 48 hours without watching TV?

Emmacash

Surely I have to have...


...haven't I??

Wichita Lineman

Probably.

Have you ever been fishing?

mustard_igloo

Nope, no intention to either, any sort of sealife scares the crap out of me!

What's your normal order from a Chinese takeout?

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

Chicken curry with boiled rice. I never stray from it.

Are you adventurous with your food

clappyhappy

Yes very much.


What is the one thing you refuse to eat, for me it has to be baked beans. Hate them beyond belief.

mobpd

Onions all kinds except pickled

If you're only 'popping in for a minute' would you bother parking properly if there is a space available or double park?
