[TropicThunder]

1. What's the best way to make a good first impression with you?

Just don't be a tool. If I meet you, and all you do is complain or be negative, then I'm probably not going to be too inclined to hang out again.

2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?

Crime Drama is probably my most read genre. I picked up a book by John Sandford at age 12 and I've been hooked ever since.

Wake up. Let kid out of crib/cage. Fix him breakfast, make coffee, set him up with cartoons.

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?

The opposite sex doesn't confuse me as much as my own gender.

5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?

After the changes I've made in the last year and a half, I realize now that I could probably part with anything. I gave up the one thing that had the most sentimental value already.

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?

Definitely capable. And change is good. Every big change I've made in life has always been for the better.

7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?

That's its something you need to be happy in life.

8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?

My shoulder.

9. Describe your dream house and it's location.

An old stone castle in Ireland or Scotland. Situated in the middle of rolling green hills, covered with trees and flowers, and my own personal garden. I would have a little rooftop garden too. I would sit up there with my bottle of wine and write books until the day I died.

10. If you could meet any famous person & ask them one question; Who would it be and what would you ask them?

John Lasseter or Andrew Stanton. I would ask them why exactly the Abominable Snowman in Monsters Inc was banished to the Himalayas.

[TickleMyFancy]

1. What's the best way to make a good first impression with you?
Smile

2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?
Used to be, but I kinda fell out of reading for pleasure because I'm so busy lately

3. What's your morning ritual? How do you get started for the day?
Wake up, smoke a bowl, brush my teeth, take a shower, and from there depends on whats going on that day

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?
How they can just dismiss how you're (well, me lol) feeling just because they're not feeling the same way. Ug.

5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?
Laptop <3

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?
Everyone can change if they really want to

7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?
I think it depends on the relationship

8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?
Oh man, I'm not sure. Tickling? Make them laugh? lol

Think about the house from "What Dreams May Come". That.

10. If you could meet any famous person & ask them one question; Who would it be and what would you ask them?
Obama. WHAT THE HELL!?

good time killer lol

 

[myth77]

1. What's the best way to make a good first impression with you?

Show your sense of humor. I'll always have a good impression of someone that has a good sense of humor right from the start.

2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?

Yes. Hard to say what my favorite genre is. Because I write poetry, I tend to read chapbooks a lot. I like a good mystery novel. I even love a well-written business book.

3. What's your morning ritual? How do you get started for the day?

Okay, this might sound corny or 'Pollyanna-like'. I open up my curtains, and stare outside for awhile, and remind myself how grateful I am to still be alive. There's no guarantee I will get another morning (lots of people didn't wake up today), so I remind myself how glad I am to be on this side of things . Everyday. Without fail.

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?

I dunno. I think humans in general can act pretty confusing. The only thing that ever really confuses me is people expecting to receive more than they are willing to give.


5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?

My music player and headphones. Unless I get a new set .

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?

My core doesn't change (I'm always gonna be a goofball ), but I'm always looking for new ways to improve who I am/what I'm capable of, and finding experiences that will change my perspective on life.


7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?

That there is some end goal. That there has to be some natural progression of things that lead down the path to a happy romance. That marriage is the pinnacle. It's really just acknowledging that there's another person in this world you care a lot about, and enjoying some of life's moments with them while there's still time


8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?

My ears. I can listen to them talk it out as long as they want.

9. Describe your dream house and it's location.

Funny you should mention that. I'm working on that at the moment. My dream house just needs to be big enough for my girls and I to be comfortable. I've got some friends trying to persuade me on the location part. I was raised in the suburbs, so my dream location is the opposite. I like the city . I don't intend to let it be just a dream much longer.

10. If you could meet any famous person & ask them one question; Who would it be and what would you ask them?

I would want to meet President Obama and ask him why he's so f*cking cool

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?
I'm pretty set as far as my morals go... lifestyle-wise I have made changes before and I'm sure I will again..
7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?
Everything.... every relationship is different.. I've had great ones, I've had bad ones.... in the end it's all about the person you're with... there is no way to define any relationship in theory... they only exist in practice...
8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?
I have no idea.. someone said their ear, and I think I'm gonna hafta steal that answer
9. Describe your dream house and it's location.

Speak well, Be funny or intelligent (or both), don't be a douchebag.

2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?
Definitely, yes. Mostly fantasy, but I'm a big science fiction fan too.

3. What's your morning ritual? How do you get started for the day?
Wake up at least an hour before my alarm goes off, drift in and out of sleep for the remaining hour, wake up with my alarm, swear, look at my phone, shower, brush my teeth, get dressed, head to work.

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?
I don't like to make generalizations, but something that seems to happen to me a lot is being expected to read into things that I have no reason to. Also, I find that nonexistent subtext gets applied to my words or actions with enough frequency for it to be called a common occurrence.

5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?
My computer, my cell phone, my video game systems, my ridiculously awesome bed.

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?
Huge changes, like friends moving away, someone dying, that kinda thing, tend to throw me off, but I don't have a problem with change most of the time.

7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?
That it's easy, or it makes things easy. Relationships are hard as fuck. They never stop being hard. That's not to say that it's not worth it. But it always takes work.

8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?
Marijuana?
In all seriousness, I'm not sure I know of anything I own that would help.

9. Describe your dream house and it's location.
I don't really have a dream house. I just want to be somewhere nice, with people I love.

10. If you could meet any famous person & ask them one question; Who would it be and what would you ask them?
I dunno, really. I don't have that many burning questions for famous people. *shrug* I guess Matt Smith or David Tennant would be cool, and I'd probably just ask if they wanted to hang out. XD

 

[Dave2112]

Be funny.

2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?

Wake up when the baby wakes up...feed the baby then go back to sleep when he does...or just go back to sleep if Mommy feeds him. Then dick around on the computer for half an hour and see what the day brings.

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?

The ability to make the slightest item from a year ago somehow fit into an argument now that has nothing to do with it.

5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?

I don't know if I have any. I've never had much in the way of materialistic possessions for long...things come and go, no big deal.

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?

I change every couple years or so. Life is change, and I do it all the time...hopefully for the better, sometimes not.

7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?

That two people have to mesh perfectly in order for it to work. "Soulmates" is a myth, IMHO.

George Carlin DVD's.

A cordwood roundhouse in the Catskills.

[sheisgone24]

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?

I don't want to sound holier than thou, however, both sets of my grandparents had house fires and lost pretty much everything. {I have a little bit of an irrational fear of that and OCD about the stove and iron} So because of that I know that things can be replaced, but family, friends, my dogs - those are the things that I really fear loosing. Oh hell I would be pretty much f'd with out my car.....

An old bottle of Wellbutrin?? And the advice that it is ok to ask for help, that sometimes you have to talk to a neutral third party i.e. a councilor, clergy-person, medical professional, that depression is normal, that you are normal and it is going to get better, maybe.

9. Describe your dream house and it's location.

On the water, somewhere warm in the summer and mild in the winter, cosy, not too big, but big enough for me and my schtuff, and secluded so I can be tickled and tickle til my little heart's content and the neighbors won't wonder what all the screaming is about.... [eg]

1. What's the best way to make a good first impression with you?
Smile and be polite. I hate when I meet someone for the first time and they just look at me all srs bzns. It gives me bad vibes.

2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?
I love to read, but I don't make nearly enough time for it. I like horror/suspense like Dean Koontz (the man) and Stephen King. I love Edgar Allan Poe, too. He is one twisted sumbitch, and I love it.

3. What's your morning ritual? How do you get started for the day?

I wake up, push my cats off me, trip over them on my way to the bathroom, do everything bathroom oriented, fool around on the computer while I dry off, put in my contacts, get dressed, blowdry my bangs, perfume/lotion/otherwise beautify, and out the door

Oh and I feed my cats and scoop their stupid litter box, too.

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?

Just the lack of basic communication skills. Even the best male communicator I've come across has had some serious deficits. I don't get it.

5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?
My diary I've had since 6th grade, my Monkey, my lion hoodie -- that's about it.

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?
I'm pretty cool with change.

7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?
I think too many people think being in a relationship means having someone is going to cater to whatever you want and make it their purpose in life to make you happy. It doesn't work like that. While I think it's a marker of a healthy relationship when each person wants the other to happy and does things to try and promote that, at the end of the day your happiness is your responsibility.

8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?
My cats. I've only had them for a little over a year, and I feel like we've been through everything together.

9. Describe your dream house and it's location.
Basically, anything that has a dishwasher, room for a shit ton of cats (I think all together we have 6 ) and IFD+Rhino. Location is PA -- because I'm codependent on my family

10. If you could meet any famous person & ask them one question; Who would it be and what would you ask them?
I would ask Sylvester Stallone to marry me

No srsly, I have no idea. I'm not super fascinated with celebrities, really.

1. What's the best way to make a good first impression with you?
Talk to me like you mean to, not down to me.

I have never been much of a reader beyond newspapers and court cases but I have a liking toward mythology-based books

Get up, let dog out, online routine, (email, TMF, Fet, FB) breakfast, SportsCentre

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?
That no single day is the same; no consistency or predictability at all.

Game Boy Advance and Computer

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?
I am definitely capable of change and have done so but I like for things to be as predictable as they can possibly be given that life tends to be unpredictable at the best of times.

7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?
That an epic fight/argument/declaration of war AND a Facebook status change mean that a relationship is over.

8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?
There is nothing I own that could help with depression, beyond a self-help book from Dr. Phil which proved to be useless. Besides, if I did own something I would end up using it myself - I help people with my words and support, and since I technically own those, I'll say that.

9. Describe your dream house and it's location.
My soon-to-be wife and I owning an average home and making it ours.

Lately, since I'm on summer vacation, I wake up when my fiancee leaves for work. I walk the dog, eat breakfast, go the gym, and shower.

I don't get the inability to focus on multiple things.

5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?

My musical instruments.

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?

I usually need some kind of kick in the ass to change. I'm not as good at changing unprovoked.


7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?

That you never feel the need to masturbate?

I'd love to own a huge townhouse in the Village in New York City. With a two car garage and a backyard.

10. If you could meet any famous person & ask them one question; Who would it be and what would you ask them?

Meh, I'm feeling pretty irritated with John Boehner lately. I'd ask him why he felt content to raise the debt ceiling the dozens of times he voted for it previous to this time.

If you had ten thousand dollars and had to give it to charity, how would you distribute it?

 

[thetmfobserver]

Honesty, staying true to yourself while not being a tool.


2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?

I am a reader. I enjoy biographies or comedy.

Most days, I wake up, hit my computer, and check TMF and other non-fetish sites until I'm hungry for breakfast.


4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?

Women, it seems, have brains that do not slow down. They are always thinking, and I've struggled to handle that.


5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?

I don't necessarily know if I have a possession I couldn't live without. Though I am awfully fond of my deodorant.


6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?

Both. I am resistant to change, but I can do it under the right set of circumstances.


7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?

To someone who is not in one? That you always have to enjoy the person you're with. Not true.


8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?

Again, material possessions likely wouldn't help in this case...My stuffed koala might bring a smile, though.


9. Describe your dream house and it's location.

I actually just found it online! It's in a nice nearby town, off the beaten path a bit, down a side street. Has a layered back deck, hot tub, jetted tub in the master bathroom, a nice kitchen, and 3 bedrooms.


10. If you could meet any famous person & ask them one question; Who would it be and what would you ask them?

Let's do a fetish one and a non...

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

 

[Saeria]

1. What's the best way to make a good first impression with you?
Say something amusing. You can be the worst person in the world, but I'll always fall for good humor.

2. Are you a reader? If so; what Genre do you enjoy most?
I read ceaselessly. I don't have a specific genre, I read anything with print, but I prefer something with a dynamic story with unforgetttable characters

3. What's your morning ritual? How do you get started for the day?
Wake up, let the dogs out, drink my oh so tasty fat free milk, take my handfuls of meds that keep me alive, take a shower and head out to the old folks home

4. What qualities do the opposite sex have that confuse you?
Control! Why is it such a battle?

5. What are some materialistic posessions that you own that you could never part with?
My liver? maybe, it's about the only thing I haven't wrecked yet

6. Would you say you are capable of change, or do you feel pretty stuck in your ways?
I'm forever in a constant state of flux, without change I stagnate, and with stagnation comes depression.. screw that.

7. What do you feel is one of the biggest misinterpretations about being in a relationship?
Not all relationships are sexual. A woman can have a close male friend and not be "banging him". .. le sigh, I miss my dude friends

8. What is one thing you own that you feel would help someone suffering with depression?
It's not a thing, but more an overwhelming desire to "make it better" I carry around. I battle this daily with a friend. Sometimes when he cries and wonders why his life has turned out this way, all I can do is hold his hand and listen. Even if he can't feel it, he knows it's there. It's all I have left, and the least I can do.

9. Describe your dream house and it's location. Hell it could be a cardboard box with a ragged blanket and a rolled up jacket for a pillow, so long as it's somewhere in New England

Roger Dean... What do you think beauty truly is?
