Game: Ask the Person Below You

[Chava]

Nope

Have you ever decided against purchasing something knowing it might have been prodced in a sweatshop?

[Stargazer86]

yes.
I recently clicked on the link on Athiest's sig and plan on buying from that shop from now on for a lot of jewlery, clothes, gifts etc. They employ people in third world areas fairly and with decent wages and conditions. We cannot encourage large companies to profit off of abuse and overwork of the less fortunate. I have never bought Nike shoes for this reason.

What is your signature style in how you look/dress?

[Chava]

Er... largely second hand, and often political shirts.

What is globalisation?

[BienvenuJDC]

Globalization is where everyone in the world becomes the same thing.

What is individualization?

[Chava]

Occasionally counter-productive, and not the opposite of globalisation.

Who is a cosmopolitan?

[BienvenuJDC]

Anyone who knows a lot about the world around

How much does one have to know to be a cosmopolitan?

[Chava]

I think one has to know, but more importantly to understand a lot of the world around.

Is compassion more important than sympathy?

[BienvenuJDC]

In my opinion, it is. There is a slight difference...sympathy is being sorry....compassion is doing something about it.

Do you think that we should always try to fix someone else's problems?

[papayahed]

No. Only they can fix their problems, you can sit by them.


How or would your views on life change if aliens showed up?

[BienvenuJDC]

They wouldn't change...

If you lived in America before 1492, how or would your views on life change if Europeans showed up?

[papayahed]

I'd think "aw hell - there goes the neighborhood". Seriously, if I was Maya I'd probably believe, like the rest of my people that queztqotail (sp?) was returning.

Have you ever seen a UFO?

[Scheherazade]

Apart from the one that dropped me here? No.

Is architecture one of the most permanent forms of art?

[PoeticPassions]

Nothing is permanent. And I think that literature would approach permanence more so than architecture. Because I have seen buildings destroyed in war, or have come back to a city utterlly devastated after a war.

What is your favorite architectural achievement? (building, monument, etc)

[BienvenuJDC]

**What if the said building as a library...like in Alexandria...:)**

Ah, maybe I'll just stay here and post self-indulgent witticisms that are not that witty. Yeah, I'll do that. Thanks for the invite though. ;)

Question: Should I get back to that paper I've been meaning to grade?

"Whale Song", it was written by a friend of mine.

Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near?

[PoeticPassions]

What books are you planning to read this summer?

[Scheherazade]

The ones that are sitting on my bedside table... ;)

When was the last time someone gave you a "thank you" card?

[The Comedian]

I make my kids write them all the time. Oh, you mean me? ;)

If emails count, then yesterday. I chair an essay competition at my school, and I sent a written "thank you" to all the judges who read and evaluated the submissions.

When was the last time you received a thank you card?

EDIT: I'm a total idiot and did not read the question above correctly.

My short answer to the actual question above. I have no idea when I received a thank you card, honestly. It's been a while.

[Scheherazade]

*does not comment on The Commedian's post*

Yesterday (end of the term, you see).

When was the last you gave someone a thank-you card? ;)

[papayahed]

erm.... it's been a while. I can't remember it might have been my college graduation...

Do you like C.S. Lewis too? or who is your favorite writer and why?

[Chava]

I never really got into CS. Lewis. I had the Witch, the Lion, and the Wardrobe as a kid, but the cover creeped me out, so I never read it. My favourite author is probably F.Scott Fitzgerald, because his style of writing will always be the ideal to me, capturing people and sentiments so well.

Will your life be complete without travel?

Do you like drinking beer in the shower?

[Stargazer86]

Never done it. I don't like watered down beer which is why I don't drink Coors or Budweiser :P But I do drink wine in the tub sometimes

What is your favorite alcoholic beverage?

[BienvenuJDC]

I suppose that it would be a wine (cooler) or something such, but I've never drank any...

What would you suggest that I should try if I ever do try any?

[mono]

Eh, it depends on your palate's preferences. I know almost nothing about liquor, with the exception of absinthe (definitely an acquired taste); in terms of beer, one can never go wrong with a lager or ale; with wine, most people either love or hate reds (I love them), but a chardonnay (a white wine) seems to fit most people's likenesses - sweet, not dry, not wet, and it goes well with many foods - in terms of red wines, pinot noir, no contest.

Have you ever drank to the point of passing out or losing your memory of the drunken escapades?

[BienvenuJDC]

Since I've never drank...then no...

Should I ever start drinking?

[papayahed]

No, not if you don't want to.

Should I ever stop drinking?

[BienvenuJDC]

Excessively (if that's what you do), yes...casually...only if you think you ought to...

Should I drink more juice?

[JuniperWoolf]

That depends on how much juice you drink already. My doctor told me I was drinking too much orange juice.

Do you think that its important to experience everything that you possibly can, just for experience's sake or do you value conservative self-preservation more?

[mono]

Unless it does not involve any act too extreme, or something that would harm someone else, physically or emotionally, I would rather regret doing something than to regret not doing something.

Good one - same question.

[BienvenuJDC]

To experience for experience sake...it depends on the risk........it could really go either way
(i.e. certain drugs...short term experience vs. long term consequences)

Have you ever taken drugs stronger than pot or alcohol?

[Eryk]

No.

Knowledge, Love, Power: if you could have one of these things in abundance, which would you choose?

[BienvenuJDC]

Love

What's romantic to you?

[JuniperWoolf]

I don't like typical film-style relationship romance (like that movie, The Notebook... crap). I don't know. I like comedy, and new places. Nature is romantic, especially when I'm alone.

Do you think that Canadians should legalize weed because de-criminalizing it is pretty much the same thing anyway?

[papayahed]

I'm not sure what the legal differences are but I think weed should be legalized anyways.


Do you consider yourself open minded?

[Chava]

Yes

Is it good to be open-minded?

[BienvenuJDC]

Yes...it is...as long as your not so open-minded that your brain falls out.

Do you like peanut butter?

[Stargazer86]

uh yeah. Who doesn't? Excluding people with peanut allergies...

I'd love to learn ballroom dances... but I just like to dance, do my own thing, especially when I go out to clubs :)

Buying books and dvds. I can't walk out of a bookshop without something so I try not to walk in...it's impossible though. I'm a little more controlled with dvds, but it's still bad. I know I should be saving more than I am, but I just can't (read: don't want to) help myself :)
