Ten Questions

[JALU3]

http://www.shoutfactory.com/productlines/ITAS.gif

Just out of curiosity, I wondered how people on this board would answer the following questions. I have not seen a similar thread done on this in a search of this forum in the past, so maybe it's about time. Or maybe it should be a sub-thread in the pics/bio sticky?


1. What is your favorite word?
2. What is your least favorite word?
3. What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
4. What turns you off creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
5. What sound or noise do you love?
6. What sound or noise do you hate?
7. What is your favorite curse word?
8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
9. What profession would you not like to do?
10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?


Now my brother I think had one of the best answers to #10 that I have heard thus far. "Why the Hell are you here? And how did you get past St. Peter!?!"

That being said, I would like to see what our answers would be here on Subsim. Here are my answers:

1. Potential
2. Nigga'. (The slang of the "N Word") Followed closely by cannot/can't
3. Seeing/Observing good, loving, parenting in practice.
4. Undeserved anger
5. The sound the wind makes in a forest as a breeze makes its way
6. The quiet stillness which come just after death/expiration, especially after a valiant struggle. This is followed by "Gangsta Rap".
7. (The "F Word")
8. Civics/Government Teacher
9. Female Genital Mutilating/Cutting Practitioner
10. Your forgiven. Why don't you have another go at it, and try again. I am sure you can do better this time.

5) military radio chatter(when proper procedures are used)
6) depth-charges:o

9. Female Genital Mutilating/Cutting Practitioner
that's a job!?
9) I don't know...... Ubisoft customer service?
10) What took you so long? Ever since the muslims started blowing themselves to hell, we're overstocked on virgins. Get to work!

Unfortunatly in certain places in Africa it is an actual profession.


10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? - N/A Doubt heaven exists and if it does I doubt I would go there.
Thus the questions own proviso that it assumes that it does exist and that there is a God, irregardless of the answer's own opinion of the subject.

Oh man, this is like a freakin' MySpace questionaire...
In many ways it is, but these questions are asked of every actor that has been on Inside the Actors Studio (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_the_Actors_Studio), as hosted by James Lipton, and as seen here in the US on the Bravo Network (http://www.bravotv.com/inside-the-actors-studio).
Here are some examples:
*Robert Redford (http://video.aol.com/video-detail/inside-the-actors-studio-icons-robert-redfords-questions/227620980)
*Clint Eastwood (http://video.aol.com/video-detail/inside-the-actors-studio-icons-clint-eastwoods-questions/1724307925)
*Dave Chappelle (http://video.aol.com/video-detail/inside-the-actors-studio-dave-chappelle-dave-chappelles-questions/873460584)

Suprisingly George Carlin stated that his favorite curse word was "Mother****er", and to God's statement question he, as a noted athiest, would like to hear "Now we're going to have some fun around here."

Irregardless???
:hmmm:

Don't you just hate that "word"? It's almost as annoying as "for all intensive purposes".

[Platapus]

Or "I could care less" :damn::damn:

If you could care less than this is pretty important!

The phrase is "I could not care less"!

I don't think I have ever heard anyone say "for all intensive purposes".

Has anyone else heard anyone say these exact words? "I heart that movie"?

It drives me nuts! Heart is not a verb. It is a graphic on stupid bumper stickers! There is a lady at work who "hearts" things she likes. :damn::damn::damn::damn:

[UnderseaLcpl]

I don't think I have ever heard anyone say "for all intensive purposes".
We get it here quite a bit. I've actually seen it written that way.
Fools! It's "for all intents and purposes". "Intensive purposes" does not make any sense!

Has anyone else heard anyone say these exact words? "I heart that movie"?
I've heard the phrase used, but not often. Doesn't make it any less painful, though......

For all its' virtues, Texas is plagued with grammatical abominations, and I am not referring to "ain't" and "y'all". By my estimation, roughly half the populace is incapable of using apostrophes correctly. Another third show serious deficiencies in non-phonetic spelling. Even amongst the functionally literate, malapropisms are common.

Why don't we have a grammar-nazi sticky thread?
