As I've been promising/warning you: Quizzes and such!

I hope I didn't post this before. It was saved as a text file here at work, and I try to get rid of them as I post them...

You Are the Peacemaker

9

You are emotionally stable and willing to find common ground with others.

Your friends and family often look to you to be the mediator when there is conflict.

You are easy going and accepting. You take things as they come.

Avoding conflict at all costs, you're content when things are calm.

What number are you?

Interesting. Moving on...

I had to reorder these numbers because someone presumably removed a bunch of questions. Jerk. Whoever you are (it wasn't froggandie, whom I stole it from).

1. Initials: ADE

2. When's your birthday: 521

3. Favorite fruit? a) Myself, b) My boy, c) Limes (they go well with alkie...), d) Raspberries, e) All of the above

4. For or against same sex marriage? Ha! Guess...

5. Are you allergic to anything? Penicillin. Other than that, unspecified allergies.

6. Have you ever slept in someone elses clothes? Boxers, yes. Possibly more, but I don't recall.

7. How many U.S states have you been to? As in, went to visit: 19+DC. Counting those driven through (possibly some rest stops, etc.): 25+DC. Counting where I've made a stop at an airport but not left the terminal: 33+DC.

8. How many of the U.S states have you lived in? 3 where I could have actually claimed residence (NJ, NY, TX)

9. Have you ever lived outside the U.S? Nope. A week visit is the longest I stayed in one place outside the country, and only 2 weeks away total for longest time out of the US (twice, both to Europe).

10. Name something physical you like about yourself? Feet.

11. Something non-physical you like about yourself? I'm SMRT.

12. Do you have any pets? No. I'd like to encourage those little geckos to take up residence, but I haven't figured out how to do so without also inviting spiders, bees, roaches, or other potential nasties.

13. What is your dream car? Erm... I'm not big on the whole flashy car thing. I rather like the one I have (Honda CR-V)

14. If you could go anywhere in the world where would you go? Quizzes always ask this, and I never have a good answer. I feel like I ought to answer something exotic, but I don't have any particular desire. Maybe Europe again? I do want to visit Canada again. I dunno. I like being able to speak some of the language, at least...

15. Have you ever had someone of the opposite sex sleep over? Yes.

16. Are you bipolar? Yeah, I think so.

17. What dream car do you want your spouse to drive? Why should I care? Aside from being able to drive it myself if necessary, and not have it guzzle gas. I like sitting up high, but hell it's his car, not mine.

18. Where would you want to go on a first date? Wherever. Alamo Drafthouse is nifty. I don't have many dates though, ya know.

19. Would you date the person who posted this before you? No, sorry. Not my type. I don't see it working out very well ;)

20. Has anyone ever sang or played for you personally? Yes. My first girlfriend sang that "Killing Me Softly" song for me accompanied on guitar. And Phils, during practice, because I've requested songs while sitting in since graduating.

21. Do you like president Bush? ... (that's me glaring at whomever asked)

22. Have you ever bungee jumped? Nipe.

23. Have you ever white water rafted? Yes! Fun.

24. Has anyone ten years older than you ever hit on you? Yeah, I think so. Andersen Phan. He's v. v. creepy.

25. Are you racist? Everyone's a little racist :P But I try very hard not to be.

26.What song are you listening to right now? N/A

27. What was the last movie you watched? V for Vendetta

28. Where was the last place you went besides your house? Cubicle farm.

29. Have you ever seriously vandalized someone else's property? Nipe.

30. Have you ever hit on someone of the same sex? I hit on everyone. But I am usually more serious when I hit on the same sex...

31. What's the first thing you notice about the opposite sex? Attitude. Some women are either really shallow and stupid or really bitchy--or both--and I try to avoid them. But so as not to give the wrong impression: I tend to be more comfortable meeting women than men. As long as they pass the aforementioned moron/bitch screening.

32. What's the first thing you notice about the same sex? To be fair, I kinda assess the same thing as in the last question at the same time as looks in general (particularly hair). But if they have their shirt off (or pulled up at all) my eyes go immediately to the torso, especially stomach, before they then proceed to other judgements :)

33. What's your favorite body part on the opposite sex? Boobs. They're nifty.

34. What's your favorite body part on the same sex? Well... there are certain things that are fun to play with. But beyond that, abs. If they're visible, I get all hot and bothered :P

35. What do you usually order from Starbucks? Chai tea latte (given that I've only been there like twice and I love chai...)

36. Say something totally random about yourself: My elbows hyperextend.

37. Do you have an iPod? Mini. Silver.

38. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity? Not really, no.

39. Do you have freckles? I used to have lots. Now I just get them in the sun.

40. Are you comfortable with your height? I've resigned myself to it, but back when I was still growing I would have killed for just one more inch (6 feet is such a nice round number...)

41. Do you like someone right now? Of course I do. I like lots of people. If we're talking middle school like, well, yes, that too. But y'all knew that.

42. How tall are you? Read 2 questions ago and figure it out. It's not hard.

43. Do you speak any other language other than English? French, though not fluently. Basic German. A smattering of others not really worth mentioning. Lots of others on my list to learn.

44. Have you ever ridden in a limo? Yes. My sister's wedding and on the way to the prom. I think we walked for my brother's wedding (it was in NYC, and not far from where we were staying).

45. Has anyone you were really close to you passed away? Hmm. Not really, unless you count my cats. My grandfather passed away, but I wasn't particularly close to him (we always lived far apart, etc.). Nor was I close to the various friends of the family or aquaintences who have died.

46. What's something that really annoys you? Misused apostrophes and bad drivers compete for the #1 slot.

47. What are some things you really like? Erm... sleep, good food, good movies, well made video games.

48. Do you like Michael Jackson? His music, yes. As a person, he's very creepy.

49. Do you think you already know the person you wanna marry? Yah, pretty sure.

50. Can you touch your nose with your tongue? I trained myself to do so. Silly, huh?

51. Do you know how to pump gas? Yes. It's not hard to figure out, even if you did live in Jersey.

52. Do you drive? Often. Including driving other people. Nuts.

53. Do you have any tattoos? Nipe.

54. Any piercings? Nipe. I feel like I missed the boat on that one. Maybe if I manage to sufficiently and successfully change my image...

55. Were you ever rushed by an ambulance into the emergency room? By an ambulance... no. By car, yes.

56. Have you ever been dared to do something you didn't want to do? Yes. And I'm sure I did some of them. Meh.

57. Do you love someone? Wait, I thought that was the middle school "like" in that other question. If not, what the hell kind of question is that? Anyway, yes. Kinda goes along with the "like" question and the "who you'll marry" question, in my opinion.

Cool! Hope some people grab that one and fill it out. I love reading quizzes :D

So, here's this meme where you look up your birthday on Wikipedia and choose interesting things that happened on that date in various years, in the categories of "events", "births" and "deaths". I did 5, 4, and 3, respectively. I don't remember what the original meme said to do. I'm not one to strictly follow meme instructions anyway.

1881 - The American Red Cross is established by Clara Barton.
1927 - Charles Lindbergh touchs down at Le Bourget Field in Paris, completing the world's first solo nonstop flight across the Atlantic Ocean.
1932 - Amelia Earhart, because of bad weather, lands in a pasture in Derry, Northern Ireland, becoming the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.
1980 - Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back opens in theaters.
2004 - Stanislav Petrov is awarded the World Citizen Award for averting a potential World War III in 1983

427 BC - Plato, Greek philosopher (d. 347 BC)
1688 - Alexander Pope, English poet (d. 1744)
1904 - Fats Waller, American pianist (d. 1943)
1952 - Mr. T, American actor

1542 - Hernando de Soto, Spanish explorer
1935 - Jane Addams, American social worker, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize (b. 1860)
2000 - Sir John Gielgud, British actor (b. 1904)

Cool. Okay, moving onward again...

And now for the MOST SEXIST QUIZ EVER! And in contention for "worst quiz ever" too. I took it partially cuz it's fun, but also partially to make fun of it.

That's all I've got for now. I was gonna update a "post the first 25 songs that come up on a random playlist" again (I've done that one at least once before) but my iPod's dead. Not dead-dead, just out of batteries. But my charger's at home. Sadness! Oh well. Some other time, I guess. Real update sometime. When I feel like it, really. Maybe right away. Whatever.

quizzes, memes, surveys
