[NikolaiI]

Formal? Quite a long time ago. Informal? Not too long ago.

What are you reading now?

[BienvenuJDC]

I was reading your post...

[papayahed]

Timmy, Scher, Niamh, Night, Bad, Sanch,MH, Tal, Kilted, Lily, Dork, Shal, Stannie, Reisa, LadyWW, mono, Id, Snot, I know I forgot some. etc..... It's a tie. It seems like I'm partial to the old timers...but that's only because I've known them longer and I'm used to them


Same question.

[NikolaiI]

Logos, Scheherazade, Nightshade, Niamh, and papayahed. :D

How do you find peace in an unsteady situation?

[papayahed]

Logos, Scheherazade, Nightshade, Niamh, and papayahed. :D



:lol::lol:


How do you find peace in an unsteady situation?

I either buy stuff or I listen to loud music.

I was trying to think of a question along those same lines, same question:


How do you find peace in an unsteady situation?

[NikolaiI]

Focus on my breath or chant mantras generally.

[Stargazer86]

Elvis or Syd Barret

If you could ask God/Jehova/Yaweh/[insert whatever diety's name applies to your beliefs] one question, what would it be?

[BienvenuJDC]

What do You want me to do for You next?

Would you do what He told you to do?

[papayahed]

erm, depends. If he asked me to do something like built an ark I probably wouldn't because I'm not sure I'm a believer but if it was something like go help the homeless I would do it because it makes sense and it's a good idea.

Do you plant a garden?

[BienvenuJDC]

I haven't in years, but I might do a few things this year

Don't you think that if He actually spoke to you that you'd start believing?

tiger lilies
their smell is intoxicating, but they're such fragile flowers!

[Chava]

Roadside poppies

Is it significant, wether or not a tree makes a noise as it falls if no one is there? :)

[kingoflombards]

I'm sure it matters a lot to Nobody(:lol:)



Do you read comics, or are you a pure book reader?

[Stargazer86]

Pure book reader though I love some of the movie adaptations (Spawn, Hulk, X-Men, Batman). I don't like how its written out with all those pictures and word bubbles and things. My daughter's dad/my roommate is an a avid comic reader.


What is your pet peeve?

[The Comedian]

Apathy -- or worse, people who brag about their apathy. If you don't care, then go jump in the abyss. I'm sure it won't care either.

Do you live in a house/apartment/condo/tent. . . .?

[papayahed]

Apartment.

If you were given a chocie of a year long free pass to your favorite restaurant or to a movie theater which would you choose?

[Stargazer86]

probably movie theatre. I can make my own food. It's nice to get out of the house for some entertainment from time to time. Though most movies that come out now are total crap...

Do you have any recurring dream? And if so, what is it? (if you dont mind sharing :) )

[BienvenuJDC]

Apathy -- or worse, people who brag about their apathy. If you don't care, then go jump in the abyss. I'm sure it won't care either.


There was a survey concerning the biggest problems in society today. People were asked what is worse in our society: Ignorance or Apathy?

Half the people didn't know, while the other half didn't care!!!

:lol:

[BienvenuJDC]

probably movie theatre. I can make my own food. It's nice to get out of the house for some entertainment from time to time. Though most movies that come out now are total crap...

Do you have any recurring dream? And if so, what is it? (if you dont mind sharing :) )

I have had some dreams that I thought I had dreamed before, but I usually lose all details about my dreams within 5-10 minutes after waking up...unless I can explain them to someone else -- thus burning them into my head.

Have you ever woke up from an embarrassing dream? If you don't mind, what was it about?

[kingoflombards]

The most recurring dream that I have is a dream where the dude from Napoleon Dynamite teams up with the Hulk and Captain Kirk. They build a tower of ravioli. Beef ravioli.


Same question.

[papayahed]

I had a dream that I saw a coworker naked.


Have you ever had a dream that seemed to come true?

[kingoflombards]

the above mentioned dream. (mine; not papaya's)

[Stargazer86]

The most recurring dream that I have is a dream where the dude from Napoleon Dynamite teams up with the Hulk and Captain Kirk. They build a tower of ravioli. Beef ravioli.


Same question.


I literally laughed out loud. That's freaking great. *pulls out the dream dictionary* I wonder how we can interpret this :lol:


To answer the question: yes, it seems to me that I have, but I couldn't tell you what exactly. I just have a memory of that somewhere though I can't recall.

Does it frustrate you when people are too vague with thier answers?

[caddy_caddy]

Nothing frustrates me more!!:bawling:

Are u moody?

[BienvenuJDC]

What do you mean my that!!!:flare:

just kidding...nope, I'm not :D

Do you like me?

[papayahed]

Sure, you seem pretty nice.


If I was coming to dinner what would you cook?

[BienvenuJDC]

Grilled Salmon with baby carrots and augratin potatoes preceded by a tossed salad. served with ice tea.
Coffee and a brownie/ice cream dessert

Would you bring anything (even though you were told that it wasn't necessary)?

[Stargazer86]

Of course. It's always polite to bring something like a bottle of wine, or perhaps a cheese, cracker, and salame set, or a little something for desert. But you seem to have dessert covered so I'll bring the wine and Hors d'oeuvres (is that the correct spelling??)

What qualities do you most value in a house/dinner guest?

[papayahed]

Normally I'd bring wine but I don't think you drink so i would bring either flowers or a dessert.

Dang it! Star beat me to it. I look for good conversation in dinner guests.

Have you ever taken anything from work for use at home (ie. paper clips, stapler, etc...)?

[Stargazer86]

Normally I'd bring wine but I don't think you drink so i would bring either flowers or a dessert.

I'm a black pen klepto. And I always snatch a bunch of ointment from medical supply whenever I get a new tattoo. Actually, the nurses give it to me. And I've had to get bandages before. And medical masks when we thought a couple of our patients and staff had swine flu. But I only take that stuff after asking the nurses first.

What's your favorite side dish?

[kingoflombards]

Potatoes. Boiled, mashed, stewed. I don't mind.

Are you big on technology?

[Michael T]

I do like to keep up with technological advances and constantly attempt to gain a greater understanding of Quantum Physics/Theory. However, I’m not that bothered about owning new stuff.

Do you have a fetish for high-quality propelling pencils? :D

http://2pat.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/mechanical-pencil.jpg

[BienvenuJDC]

I love a great mechanical pencil, but it does get embarrassing when I am caught with my pencil alone time...(you know...erasing that lead look off my face...;))

Do you have any other (tame) fetishes...those that you could actually share on LitNet that is?

[skib]

I assume a tame fetish means out-of-the-gutter, so yes.
Guns. Pretty guns. Wooden-stock, shiny, smooth guns. Darker rather than lighter.

Does your mind live in the gutter?

[kingoflombards]

No, it lives in my head.


Why are we talking about such strange things?

[skib]

No, it lives in my head.


Why are we talking about such strange things?

Sorry!:lol: Spent a little too much time in the philosophy forum this morning and my brain is still all topsy-turvy.

Do you have trouble typing the word philosophy?

[*Classic*Charm*]

Nope. I think it's a great word :D

Have you ever formally studied philosophy?

[skib]

Nope. I can't stand philosophy.

Do you think there are more than two practical things to do with a philosophy degree?

[*Classic*Charm*]

Haha guess I didn't need to ask that. I just read your blog!

Yes, there certainly are.

EDIT: Im an idiot and forgot to ask a question!

If you can't see the practicality of something, does that mean it does not exist?

[skib]

uh-oh . . . no question . . . what do I do??? MOOOODS!!

[*Classic*Charm*]

I edited I edited!

Haha I was like "moods? what's a mood?" I got it now :blush:

[skib]

No, you're not an idiot! Forgetful, maybe you got excited about your next post?

No, even if something is not practical (flies, mosquitoes, etc,) they still exist.

Did you believe in things that didn't exist when you were a little kid?

[*Classic*Charm*]

I had quite the imagination, but I didn't really believe. And I still don't believe in aliens and ghosts, etc.

How old were you when you realized Santa Claus wasn't real?

[skib]

I don't remember how old I was, but I caught my parents eating the cookies I meant to eat before Santy got to them.

Did you ever believe in the Easter bunny?

[*Classic*Charm*]

I did indeed. My parents were very clever

Did you believe in the tooth fairy?

[Michael T]

Well who the hell else is putting the money under my pillow? :eek2:

Do you believe in crushing peoples beliefs on a forum? :D

[BienvenuJDC]

I don't remember...and what do you mean about Santa Claus?

What do you believe in that many people don't?

[*Classic*Charm*]

"Crushing" people's beliefs is pretty rude wherever you do it!

I believe in...hmm...I can't think of something that most people don't...

Would you engage in a polite discussion with someone whose beliefs contradict your own? :D

[BienvenuJDC]

Yes...I haven't always been that way though...it hasn't always been so polite

Have you ever gotten the forum games confused?

[Michael T]

Yes!


Is it wrong to point out where people are mistaken in their beliefs?

[BienvenuJDC]

Not if it is a fact that you are correcting...not your own opinions...

Do you consider yourself opinionated?

[*Classic*Charm*]

Nope, there's nothing wrong with disagreeing. I do it a lot :D

Do you disagree with others often?

[Michael T]

If there is an opportunity! :D


Do you love to debate and argue philosophy?

[*Classic*Charm*]

I do indeed!

Are you partial to a particular ethical theory?

[BienvenuJDC]

Yes...if I know what that means

Do you (all) want to meet for dinner and drinks later?

[Michael T]

where? (I think Singer has some good points)


Do you think advances in Quantum Theoty leaves the door open for mind-body duality

[BienvenuJDC]

No

Do you think that almost anything in SciFi could be possible with the right technology?

[Michael T]

Doesn't that question answer itself?


Does a slice of bread always land butter side down?

[*Classic*Charm*]

My knowledge of quantum theory isn' advanced enough for that Michael T! Though I do believe in the duality.

No to Bien

Ugh I'm slow! And yes, I think it would unless the drop is too short to allow for the bread to flip to that side.

Do you enjoy reading about scientific developments?

[kingoflombards]

That is basically my life!!!!!


Do you like science?(I LOVE science)

[kingoflombards]

Biology. Cellular biology.



Same question.

[*Classic*Charm*]

Ugh Cell Bio is my nemesis!!

Anatomy and Physiology!!! (so far..there's still much to learn)

Plant biology or animal biology?

[kingoflombards]

Animal. Plants are fun science wise but animals are more interesting.

Do you like genetic sciences?

[*Classic*Charm*]

I love genetics!

Do you like biochemistry?

[caddy_caddy]

:crash:Yes
Do you think a person who leaves his study to chitchat here is irresponsible?

[*Classic*Charm*]

Not irresponsible, just procrastinatory! (I don't think that's a word, but it seems to work haha)

Would you rather study or chat on LitNet?

[caddy_caddy]

study and reading most of time
thx for cheering me up:D
Are u willing to chitchat with me here?

[BienvenuJDC]

I would be...but I have to get some things done

Are you looking for a good looking young lady to chat with...or a middle aged plain looking man?

[caddy_caddy]

[kingoflombards]

No.


Are YOU Classic Charm? In disguise!?!?!?!

Do u think if I am not able to remember Hamlet's mother name-- I read it twice and saw the movie, could I remember The Oresteia's names :
Aegisthus , Atreus,Orestes, Thyestes, ....???

[BienvenuJDC]

Gertrude

Why does the mention of a good looking young lady automatically bring *Classic*Charm* to mind? :D

[skib]

Possibly because she is a good looking young lady? ;) Just a guess.

Who is Gertrude?

[caddy_caddy]

The wife of Hamlet's father?
WHAT IS THE NAME OF HAMLET'S FATHER????????HHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[BienvenuJDC]

Hamlet...I believe...or since a Hamlet would would be a small ham...would it be Ham?

Does anybody else agree with skib and me about *Classic*Charms*?

[caddy_caddy]

I guess so .
Can you trust people easily?

[papayahed]

Yes. I'm a sucker.


What movie could you watch a bazillion times?

[caddy_caddy]

MODIGLIANI

Do u usually take things personally ?

[BienvenuJDC]

Iron Man...It's a Wonderful Life...Camp Rock (not by choice)
EDIT: I do sometimes...I'm paranoid...it's only because everybody hates me...

Do you see the connection between Iron Man and It's a Wonderful Life?

[papayahed]

No, but I'll watch again to see if I can come up with one.

What's your favorite holiday song?

[caddy_caddy]

Do you beleive if someone hates himself he can't love anyone ?

[BienvenuJDC]

Work boots...yes

Have you ever fell in the muckiest muck (while being watched by others)?

Can't say that I have ever done this.

Ever eaten an apple right off the tree (without picking it?)

[*Classic*Charm*]

Nope

Ever eaten Wild Boar?

[BienvenuJDC]

No...hmm...nope

If you could be someone else for a day, who would it be...and why?

[kiz_paws]

I would be my pet dog. Why? Well, why not? lol

Who would you be, if you could be someone else for one day?

[NikolaiI]

I guess I am no fun to play with... I wouldn't be anyone else. That would be awful for me.

Do you ever jump for joy?

Oh I like Kiz's answer! I would be a bird :):):)

[BienvenuJDC]

Yes...Joy is my wife

If you HAD to be someone else for a day...who and why?

[kingoflombards]

More like a gallop....


What's up with clicking heels?

[*Classic*Charm*]

There's No Place Like Home, that's what!

Ever wished to be somewhere other than home?

[BienvenuJDC]

Nope...not at the present at least

Do you want to be somewhere other than where you are right now?

[NikolaiI]

YES, I have, Classic. :lol:

If you could go anywhere, where would you go?

[BienvenuJDC]

Heaven

Same??

[*Classic*Charm*]

To me, Heaven's only a state of mind.

If you could pick one person to speak his or her thoughts aloud for a whole day, who would it be?

[kingoflombards]

I'm in no hurry to go to Heaven... I would like to go see a couple of things first....(like a Microsoft computer that doesn't get replaced every five minutes :lol:)



What is your favorite computer brand?

[NikolaiI]

To me, Heaven's only a state of mind.

If you could pick one person to speak his or her thoughts aloud for a whole day, who would it be?

Dick Cheney. Oh, my God, would that be revealing.


What is your favorite computer brand?

Out of habit and/or convenience, Windows.

Do you ever try to post before 30 seconds has elapsed since your previous post?

[*Classic*Charm*]

ALLL THE TIME! It's so frustrating!

How many times have you posted today?

[NikolaiI]

More than 10, less than 20.

Same?

[*Classic*Charm*]

I have no idea!!

I feel like writing. What should I write?

[NikolaiI]

Poems.

How many poems have you written in your life?

[kingoflombards]

Should there be a number attached?

(my answer is my question)

[NikolaiI]

Well generally it is a finite number. :)

Have you ever written a poem you just thought fit well?

[*Classic*Charm*]

Never. I'm no poet.

Have you ever been completely satisfied with something you've written?

[kingoflombards]

Yes. But that only seems to happen when Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd is in so....every day.


Do you think about how people might interpret your poems or do you just write them?

[NikolaiI]

I do think about it... I also do try to get across what I wish, though, even if it won't be understood.

Do you write for yourself or for another?

[jhonerliz]

mostly, for another...

did you experience giving your best to your work but no one appreciated it?

[a_little_wisp]

Oh certainly. Waitressing, that happens a lot. Sometimes, however, appreciation comes in ... different ways then we expect! One lady I had been serving didn't leave me a tip, but she left the sweetest note - and that was enough. It made my night.

Do you believe that (most) strangers are friends we haven't met?

[kingoflombards]

All people, to me, are friends until proven as enemies.



What do think of that?

[BienvenuJDC]

I think that anyone out there could be a friend...most all of you were my friends...I just didn't know it until we started talking...

Have you called your mother yet?

[papayahed]

Yep.


What type of student were/are you?

[Mrs. Dalloway]

I was really bad and now that I've found sth I like I'm better but not the best of students.

Does happiness really exist?

[Stargazer86]

In some form or another, yes it does. It is what you make of it. That's the nice thing about feelings.

What's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen in your life?

[BienvenuJDC]

A baby girl

Do you find slapstick humor funny?

[The Comedian]

No and yes. Depends on who's the stick and who's doin' the slappin'.

Do you like to pretend to be some one else?

[kingoflombards]

Yes, I act a lot.


Dr. Strange or Professor X? (Comics)

[mono]

Professor X.

Do you get seasick easily?

[Sapphire]

Not easily, but I do get seasick in heavy weather. I am fond of being on the water in heavy weather though - after I get over the sickness :lol:

Do you get carsick easily?

[PoeticPassions]

well, not easily. But one time when I was going great white cage diving I got so violently seasick that I thought I was going to die.


ahhh too slow: I get car sick sometimes... depends really.


Do you know how to sail?

[mono]

I have never tried, primarily out of a bit of a dislikeness for water.

What famous graves have you seen?

[BienvenuJDC]

Molly Pitcher...that's the most recent...and the only one I can remember...I don't visit graves much

How is your day going so far?

[The Comedian]

I can't complain. Well, yes I can. I split a bit of BBQ sauce on pants, and I still have half-a-day of work to go. Oi vay!

Do you like to break out the occasional Yiddish phrase?

[kingoflombards]

Heck yeah! It confuses people when you tell them they have hutzva!


Do you speak Yiddish?

[NikolaiI]

Nope.

Do you speak Hindi?

[Nightshade]

Nope but I know how to insult people in urdu!

Do you feel like breaking into song, right this minute- and what would you be singing>?

[Scheherazade]

"If I Were a Rich Man" and do a Tevyesque dance as well for a good measure.

What is your star sign?

[NikolaiI]

I don't know, what is a star sign?

Do you believe in astrology?

[papayahed]

Maybe.

What excuse can I give to get out of going to dinner?

[BienvenuJDC]

You're busy playing Forum Games on LitNet...

What do you do when someone is annoying and contentious and it seems like they get away with it?

[Shalot]

I put up with it as long as I can and then leave the room, or the situation or relationship or forum or whatever it is.

Would you wear a shirt out in public that says "I'm smiling because I don't know what's going on?"

[BienvenuJDC]

No...

Do you prefer to write with conventional pencils, mechanical pencils, blue ink, black ink, other colored ink, crayon, marker, charcoal, chalk, blood, or something else?

[papayahed]

blue pen, I'm the only one in the office that uses blue.


If you were at a training seminar with coworkers would you try to ditch them if they were boring and go do your own thing?

[*Classic*Charm*]

Probably haha

Where is your favourite place in the world?

[kingoflombards]

Somewhere only I know.




What is you favorite song?

[Scheherazade]

A song only I know :rolleyes:

What is your favorite excuse for not working?

[The Comedian]

"I'm postin' on LitNet"

What's your excuse?

[PoeticPassions]

It's too hot to work.

When's the last time you skipped out on work or school and why?

[The Comedian]

Hey, that's two questions! ;)

The last time that I called in "sick" under false pretenses was to go on a 30 mile bike ride with a buddy of mine. And, I did it because it was a beautiful summer day, warm and inviting; it was a day that said, "Comedian, it would be downright unfair of work to pull you in a lovely day such as this. I command you to spread righteous virtue upon that bike path with your friend!"

What else could I do? When the forces of nature herself call, you listen.

Has nature ever spoken to you?

[BienvenuJDC]

Yep...and I better go answer the call of nature before I pee myself...BRB

Whew...I feel better!

What did you do while I was gone?

[kingoflombards]

Oh, yeah.....THAT.


Well....we kind of....um....how do I say this....Had an awesome party without you. Sorry the opportunity of having a Bienvenu-free party was too good to resist.(I joking you're the man, but not in the hippies sense.:lol:)



What did you do while WE were gone? Huh-Huh? Answer the question bub!:D

[BienvenuJDC]

You left? I must have been asleep...

What will you be doing when I leave in a couple of minutes?:D (and leave my Hill alone!!)

[Remarkable]

Tagging pictures on Facebook! Rotterdam pictures! I love The Netherlands!

Have you ever been to The Netherlands?

[selsabil]

no
have you received good news today?

[Scheherazade]

Some.

What is the last dream you remember having?

[BienvenuJDC]

Trying to make up with a friend who does not want to be forgiving (especially since she is holding something against me that I did not do which was based on a lie)

What do you think that I should do?

[kingoflombards]

I really can't give advice on friendships like that. You know her better than the rest of us. Besides, I'm WAY too young to give advice like that! (talk to me in 50 yeras! :lol:)


So, what are you going to do?

[The Comedian]

Me? I'm going to read a comic book tonight.

If I were an English professor at a college and I said that I thoroughly enjoy reading X-Men comics, would you think the less of me?

[kingoflombards]

Nope, I think X-men comic books are classic pieces of literature.


Which issue are you reading?

[BienvenuJDC]

NO...I'd probably ask you if you were going to start a new class...and to sign me up.

None...:( I'd like to start reading some but I don't have the extra $$ to spend right now...

What is the best source of comic books if you don't want to break the bank?

A friend who has a hefty collection himself/herself?

Do you collect anything?

[kingoflombards]

Legos. Wicked awesome Legos.




Do we really have to call a word that sounds like it's spelled an onomatopoeia? It seems like a paradox.

What is the weirdest question a person of the opposite sex has ever asked you?

[BienvenuJDC]

...I'd have to say..."What is the weirdest question a person of the oppostie sex has ever asked you?"

Does my humor ever get annoying? :D

[PoeticPassions]

haha. no. Maybe if I lived with you or saw you all the time it would get annoying. But during these brief intervals of litnet, no. :D

Do you think this is my real identity?

[BienvenuJDC]

I believe that it is...until I find out otherwise...but I've been duped before (and I don't like it), but for now I don't want to consider any other option...:D

Do you believe I have represented myself for you I really am?

[PoeticPassions]

I think so. You seem sincere. But who knows! It's the INTERNETS and one can be whoever one wants to be!

What's the longest you have ever held your breath for?

What is one secret about yourself that you wouldn't mind sharing here?

[Pensive]

Men with weapons scare me!

What do you think of this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2gkG6FIx0w) song?

[PoeticPassions]

Well, if I shared, it wouldn't be a secret, would it?
But... something I do not tell a lot of people is that I have a lot of insecurities.
(ahh I am too slow...) next person should just answer mine and pensy's questions

Do you keep secrets well (your own and those of others')?

When was the last time you went swimming?

[The Comedian]

Last Sunday at the YMCA pool. I played going underwater to fetch some rings and "hold your breath and have a tea party" underwater too. Oh, and my two young daughters played with me. ;)

What do you like to play?

[BienvenuJDC]

Well...yesterday my oldest and I played Frisbee golf... but my daughter likes to play "Hotel" where she (or I) check each other into the hotel (my wife works at the front desk of a hotel...go figure!)

Do you act differently on the internet than you do in person (maybe more outgoing...or whatnot)?

[PoeticPassions]

No really. It's just that the Internet doesn't reveal all of my quirks, my eccentricities, my insecurities, and so on. So I appear different, sure. But I don't think I act much differently. We adapt our behavior according to the situation or circumstances.

What about you?

[BienvenuJDC]

I think that I am bolder than I would normally be (I am otherwise somewhat shy...however only in certain aspects...because I have no problem with public speaking). I never "flirt" in person, but I have on the internet...

What is your greatest non-living possession?

[The Comedian]

A pocket knife my dad gave me when I was 6.

Are you interested in environmental writing?

[papayahed]

No.

Do you bicycle?

[BienvenuJDC]

A pocket knife my dad gave me when I was 6.

Are you interested in environmental writing?

Wow...that would be an awesome prized possession...don't let it go...:)

No...I don't bicycle, but when my daughter gets older, I might start...

Have you ever eaten calamari?

[papayahed]

Yes.

If you were staying in a hotel would you go to the vending machine in your pj's if you desperately wanted a coke?

[BienvenuJDC]

Sure...my PJs are pretty modest...

Would you get ice in your underwear on a dare?

[NikolaiI]

No.

Would you be upset, even at all, if you got rained on?

[Stargazer86]

No way! Rain is such a rare blessing here that I purposely go outside and sit in it when it does happen. When I'm at work and it rains its pretty typical for all the staff to go outside and just stand there watching it until the bosses go back inside and call everyone back in.

What's your most embarrassing incident of using either an incorrect word or incorrect grammar

[BienvenuJDC]

I can't think of any for me...but I heard one in preaching school...
A very serious minded Bible professor was teaching about Abraham and Lot (Abraham's nephew). Lot and Abraham were parting ways due to an overcrowding issue, so Lot decided to move his flocks toward the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah (the cities that were known for being destroyed for their profound homosexuality...this fact is important for the story...bear with me). The Scripture says that Lot "pitched his tent toward Sodom", however when this professor quoted the passage, he actually said, Lot "pinched his teat toward Sodom". yeah...the class lost it...:lol:

What is the funniest experience you've had in a college or high school class?

[*Classic*Charm*]

There was a girl training a guide dog (it was only a 10 week old puppy) that was in one of my classes. During the final for the exam, the prof volunteered to lead the dog around so the girl wouldn't be distracted. A few minutes into the exam we all jump because the prof burst out laughing. The puppy was peeing on the carpet floor of the lecture hall :D

What is your favourite class that you've ever gotten to take, an any level of schooling?

[Stargazer86]

:lol: That's pretty good! I was thinking randomly of when I took psychology in college and the mouthy pseudo intellectual in the class kept saying "symbology" when he actually meant "symbolism"...I was amused on one hand and highly irritated on the other hand. And another time for Interpersonal Communications when I had a teacher who was mentioning something about linguistics but actually said "linguism". At least she caught the mistake though...

In answer to your question, Classic, I think my favorite class was either my Senior English class (fantastic teacher) or English Literature part I class (Beowulf through the Romantic period...another fantastic teacher)

Same question

[Tournesol]

My favourite class at university turned out to be 20th Century Literary Theory.
It's a famously dreaded compulsory course, and I went in with much trepidation, and not much expectation, but I thoroughly enjoyed the research and the readings, and I got an 'A'!
I think the reason I enjoyed it so much is because it was so challenging.

same question
