The
joee_girl episode of the 5 question meme.
1. Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?
I will probably be a high(er) level bureaucrat of some description: more pay, less work - what isn't there to like? I might even be a bureaucrat with a law degree.
I will also be more misanthropic as the questions as to why I haven't married and reproduced become more tiring. Hopefully in 5 years I will have changed enough for this to be not true, but at this stage, I can't see it happening.
2. Why am I still being called George?
You aren't still being called George. I only asked you to rank them in amongst all the nicknames you get called now in the hopes that this will revive George as a nickname for you.
3. You have the power to read people's minds. Who is first on your list?
Right now, it would be the Pope. I want to see how faithful those guys are inside their head. In a similar vein, I would love to read the Dalai Lama's mind when he sits down to determine his next incarnation. I'm sure the answers would be interesting in a world where I can read minds.
4. Would you rather be an axe murderer or shoot people with a harpoon?
Axe murderer. Being a murder implies that I have successfully killed people, whereas with “harpoon shooter” there is ambiguity in relation to possible survivors. Perhaps related to this, I have a fear that people are much more likely to survive a harpooning as there is a chance a great deal of force is lost once the harpoon punches through a target. With an axe you get a lots of blunt trauma in there too. Not that I would know or anything...
5. There is a chocolate cake and a lemon meringue pie. You may only have one slice. Which one do you choose?
The lemon meringue pie because your single-slice limitation. With chocolate cake I always want more, whereas eating an entire lemon meringue pie isn't as rewarding.
