We say french kiss or tongue kiss. But I'm an old timer, perhaps the young ones have another term for it now.
I guess I do, if you consider my wife my best friend. ;) Of course we've been married so long it doesn't happen very often now.

We say french kiss or tongue kiss. But I'm an old timer, perhaps the young ones have another term for it now.As I understand it, many youngsters tend to skip right over that step, or simply say "kiss" as if it is the default setting for kissing.
It makes me sick.

would you tell ur best friend of the opposite sex how u rlly feel about them at risk of making it awkward, not knowing whether they feel the same, and with the possibility of totally ruining ur friendship?
RobinHood3000

Yes - I did! I told her and wrote her a poem. We've been together for three years now. Fortune favours the brave!
I think that friendship is a good basis for a relationship. The fact that she is gorgeous, intelligent, funny etc. also help!

who knew you were such a romantic gentleman. I shall never think of you the same again. not that I thought anything negative, more like some mysterious stand up comic that bursts onto the forum with great funny and witty words and then vanishes once more to have a puff of that eternally burning cigarette. :D
AimusSage
05-01-2006, 01:37 PM
I once did and it didn't go as I would have liked. Didn't really ruin the friendship though, I just thought of all the other fish in the sea, accepted that she wasn't interested, and we would joke about it. Not so anymore, we have since grown apart, due to many things not related at all.

http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/sprachlos/speechless-smiley-036.gifActually, that's how I met my wife. We were best friends for years, but never dated because we were afraid of messing up the friendship. Then after my :blush: amazingly brilliant :blush: preposal *couldn't find a smilie with his foot in his mouth!* we went together 11 months. We have been married 26 years, and have three children.
I have been asked for advice on this often and I always say this: Look at the other person. Can you walk away, tell them good-bye, and have no regreats? If your answer is no, maybe you should think about it for a while, because you might just be really in love.

Would you deliberately throw a golf tournament as a player for your company if one of the players on the opposite team was someone you really loved and to whom winning was really important. And would you do this although the very reason the boss even asked you(he isn't that keen on you) was because of the stellar way you golf?
Bandini
05-01-2006, 05:59 PM
Nah. If winning is that important to them they'd understand and want to win on their own merit. I would never play golf 'for' a boss - especially one who didn't like me. Which is why I lasted about 5 minutes in the corporate world!
I can't think of a question, cos I'm too tired- so same to next?
rachel

nope,
you were in the corporate world? somehow now that I have read you a little more I think you are a handsome gentleman of the underworld who uses pomade on his sleek dark hair to look even sleeker.

sorry cant think of a Q...

how bout: after telling ur best friend who you liked, if he/she reacted shocked/appalled would you take it back and say it was a joke?
ElizabethSewall
05-02-2006, 06:02 AM
No, lies are hurtful for both the persons. I would let him/her time to think if s/he needed some and wait for him/her to call me back. Never looking back in regret, you never know what the future holds.
(By the way, I wish you all the best with your friend dear, just never let your hopes go...).

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Blondie. And welcome to the forum, I don't think I said that yet. Just call me Pen, everyone does. Yeah, I'd tell them. I've pulled pranks like that before when I worked in a factory, and I always would 'fess up, if the people got hurt or mad. If they could see the joke it remained a good mystery! Hee-hee!
Would you make your teenager (who has a pretty good job) pay for his/her own lawyer if they had to got to court and you knew before they went they were possitively not only guilty but had been downright careless?
rachel
05-02-2006, 12:27 PM
no dear I would not because we only live once and by rescuing your child and showing God's unconditional love , when you are gone he/she will remember and that love will flow thru them and they will do the same for theirs. And I actually did do that twice so I speak from experienc.
Love you to pieces Pen and sorry about the msn thing yesterday, even though I logged on travis was using computer and was busy.

05-02-2006, 03:41 PM
Yes, I would, because if it is someone I really like, I want them to be happy. (well,I like everybody to be happy,but you know what I mean...) I think a friendship is about give and take, so I am happy to compromise. Besides, then they will go to a movie with me that I like and perhaps they don't. :)
How far would you go out of your way to please someone, just as a nice gesture to them?
WaxDoll
05-02-2006, 05:17 PM
Average. I'll admit I tell people what they want to hear most of the time. I mean, what's the point of making them feel bad if it's too late to go back and fix it? I'll do what I can, but I won't go too far out of my way. Just yesturday, I swallowed down my friend's cake... I could taste chunks of baking soda in it... *shivers* I seriously could feel my stomach churning afterwards, but I ate it all the same, with a smile and compliments afterwards.

Why not just go on your own or with somebody who does like it?? Actually, it would do my head in to sit next to someone who doesn't like the movie I am watching! Yeah - get someone else to go or don't bother!

Because. I was answering the question as it was asked.
"Would you go to see a movie you didn't like if someone who likes it asked you to go with him/her?"
that is why. I often go to movies by myself and prefer it that way, actually. But the question was not if I would go to the movies by myself, was it.

Apparently, I did not word my question in the "proper" fashion. I simply enjoy doing nice things for people I care about. And it certainly isn't an "empty" gesture on my part.
*edit* Forgot the next question. Sorry, I can't think of a question right now, so I guess I will say...same question.

I did eat some pretty disgusting things for the sake of etiquette. But somtimes managed to still almost offend the people when I get in a gagging reflects if something is truly foul. If this is the case, I politely tell them that I appreciate their effort, but I can not eat it. In such a case it is better to be honest then to puke all over the table. Or at least that is my opinion, mabye it is considered a praise in some cultures to puke the food all over the table, I sure hope not.

I would abide by my vegetarianism before fearing any offense toward someone, including by declining ingesting sheep's eyeballs; self-preservation comes before politeness. If the food, however, did not have some kind of animal product, I would at least try to eat it.

Pendragon
05-14-2006, 08:08 PM
It depends. It's a question I've been asked before, by someone who wished me to go into a foreign culture with them as a missionary. If you refuse to eat with the people, they will never trust you. As it happened, my health failed before I had to make the decision. In that case, I would have. Otherwise, I have been known to say "No thanks."
When someone is different from you in some way that you personally find distasteful but is really up to that person, could you find yourself ever making friends with them?
I think anyone can relate to such a question, or has found himself/herself in a similar predicament. Perhaps not making the best of friends, due to merely appearing so disagreeable, I would at least try to make an acquaintance with the person, and attempt all in my ability to make the situation its best; that, too, would probably require the other person's attempt, however, so a compromise must come from some place.
Good question, Pendragon. I will stick with it:

Possibly. I generally find that once you get to know someone it's harder to dislike/hate them. Perhaps this would be the case. This example may fit... I worked with a guy that was pretty "shelfish" you could say. He would never let anyone use his stuff and I didn't really care for him at all. We both ended up working for a different company. At this new company we became great buddies.

05-21-2006, 09:10 AM
Wow... that's good to know.. Well, I suggest you go to Asian Cuisine for an answer, or maybe an eggplant quiche? Or a cabbage casserole... they REALLY taste good, if prepared right. Breakfast is the easiest meal for vegetarians, try juicing.. (^^,)
Would you keep a job you love that pays minumum wage meaning youll never afford any of those nice luxuries even if you were offered a better paid job that you dont particully enjoy?
Minimum wage seems a little difficult to live on (as I tried it years ago), but, if I loved my job enough, of course, I would keep it. I would, however, also consider a second part-time job to keep up with finances.

Assuming Shinigami as a female, out of feeling very shy, I could never kiss someone, unless I know them very well - emotion closeness and awareness before physical intimacy and propinquity. No offense to you, Shinigami, of course. :blush:

Same Q.
Pendragon
05-23-2006, 11:33 AM
I'm 45. To quote the movies "It ain't happening." However, we did extreme things with bicycles, skateboards, snurfers (a predecessor of the snowboard) when I was a teen in the seventies that are the direct cause of many of my broken bones. You ought to try going down a steep slope on a snowboard with a guy on your shoulders and a smaller guy on his. We did that often. Also a "rocking horse". Big guy is on two boards with hands and knees while up to three smaller kids ride his back down the slope. 70mph no hands on a 10speed bike pedelling in tenth gear downhill. Jumping the aparment complex steps on bikes not built for landing. Then on skateboards--I busted some ribs.
Ah, the good-old-days! I feel them every time the weather changes!
Good question though! Pass it on! ;)
Shannanigan
05-23-2006, 11:47 AM
Yup yup yup....most definitely. Pendragon, it sounds like you had an eventful childhood :) I guess since I'm still pretty young I've still got that do-crazy-crap spirit in me. The island is hilly and kids will luge on just about anything no matter how poorly paved the roads are. I used to rollerblade a lot...and I'm not talking about just rolling through the park. If the opportunity came around to try some more hard-core stuff, though...

I watched a documentary once of this young husband and day and he did this extreme parachuting and finally the mountain he chose was well.......I watched with pounding heart and when h e made it I breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't until the credits I noticed to my horror a tribute to him. He had died on the next flight. No husband now, no daddy. so no unless it would be to go against an unjust law forbidding me to help others. Then I would do whatever it took.
Would you enter a writing contest like the one in Vancouver in my country, where you go there, spend three days locked up in this room with others, no talking, writing a novel in breakneck speed in order to vie for the prize of having it of course honed and then published that very year?It is nerve wracking, but many do it.

Because a celebrity can be one by doing nothing much at all. One of the Gabor sisters for instance was a celebrity simply because she married fabulously weathly men and looked nice.
But a hero on the other hand is someone with a cause, the guts to work at that cause no matter what the cost no matter if the world laughs, no matter if in the doing so the person must forfeit one's honor, dignity and life.
That description M'Lord is you, not the first.

I was so confused. Trying to make her answer fuse in my head gave me brain blisters! :lol:

Yeah, I felt the same way until I scrolled up. We KNEW our rachel could not feel so!
rachel
05-27-2006, 03:56 PM
oops,
sorry M'Lord, well it is how I feel about you anyway.
Sorry David, about the brain blisters I mean. This is such a trying day and all my burns are for real blistering, I have never had such deep burns before. It will take weeks, weeks to heal and I just hope no one on the street accidentally bumps into me. I will see stars and my life flashing about in front of my eyes for I must let the air get at them according to specialist so they are not protected, well not on my hand. My abdomen yes because of my clothing.owiiee.....again my apologies.

Ouch...feel better soon, rachel!
In the meantime, what say you to the actual question, as if we did not know already?
Would you adopt a handicapped child?
rachel
05-27-2006, 04:47 PM
I am already looking into it, and, one baby, was completely emotionally challenged, detached and almost autistic in her behaviour because of trauma when she came to me.Yes .........a thousand times yes.
Pendragon

Indeed. Being disabled myself, and bearing the stigma of how people react when they find out why, it is something that I would love to do. I have a cousin who is diffrently abled, you wouldn't want a sweeter young woman around you. May God richly bless my aunt who adopted her.
Last time I was in hospital, I was sickened at the way families and some of the staff treated patients I was in with. I couldn't concentrate on getting well myself, for trying to help others. I won't say more, I don't feel I should pin roses on myself. I have a son with ADD. My daughter has to take medication regularly. But yes, even at 45, I'd take on another if they would allow me to.
Same question. God bless.

No I would not. I have neither the time nor the required skills to effectively care for any child at this point in my life, let alone one that requires extra attention. I know this sounds cruel etc, but it would be far worse if I accepted a task I knew full well I could not accomplish.

you are so honest Kilted, but I can attest to the fact he has a heart of gold. And I firmly believe that not everyone is called to deal with a person like this, just as not everyone is called to be an engineer or singer or whatever. Each one to his or her skills. And noone, noone can be as wonderful in his own way as Kilted. (how's the table doing anyway?) And besides I have already promised Hasia that when she is in her teens and rebelling we shall find Kilted and exile her to him. Ahhhhhh, a wee bit of a rest eh?

1) I can attest to my heart being blood, tissue, and possibly lead
2) As you know the table had to be altered to get out the door (what do you mean I should've thought of that before hand!)
3) I really dont like the sound of that idea.

have ye not heard that what goes around laddie comes right backkk? She , by what you ha told us over time sounds a wee bit like you a few wild yeers ago. so I am thinkin it will be a refreshin trip down memry lane for ye. hahahahahahaha(suddenly the future doesn't seem all that torturous anymore as long as Kilted is in the world somewhere!)
I already answered so I will pose a new question:
Would you consider moving up north above the tundra in the winter where there is virtually no sunshine and where most are given hazard/stress pay and have serious emotional problems from no natural light-would you do this for one season to make enough money to retire and invest to live the rest of your life in comfort without having to work if you chose not to? My sister did, just wondering.

Hm... Of course i would.. I'm 13 but that doesn't mean I'm not terribly compassionate and kind... But.. I tend to pretend indifference and calculating hate towards strangers [unless dire], and to of course, people who are twits and fakers... I actually volunteer for an orphanage, though no one knows this, I talk and play with children who are um.. traumatized and have mental and psychological problems. it's fun and makes me feel like I've done my fair share of good deeds for the day... It's "Hospicio de San Jose", the orphanage I mean...
Virgil
05-29-2006, 08:45 AM
Well, OK, for one season I would do it. But I hate the winter and I hate lack of sunshine. So, under protest, I'll do it.
Same Q.
Side note to Shinigami: You're volenteer work is incredibly admirable. We should all learn by your example.
Pensive
05-29-2006, 10:32 AM
I would do it. I love Winter but I will not like a place with no sunshine at all but yeah, I will go it.
Same Question. (Nice one rachel!)
AimusSage
05-29-2006, 01:25 PM
No sunshine? That means I can leave my coffin at home! :)
But seriously, I think the chances of me actually doing so are small, I might say here I would, but I don't really have the intend, or I would be there already. :nod:
So no, I wouldn't, besides I like what I do, or am going to do in a few years. :)
Same Q.

absolutely. I worked night shifts at walmart for a whie for money.... I loved the klondike derbies and snow-cave camping... put 'em together, and you've got Alaska. I'd do it, and I might even enjoy it.
Would you set a forest on fire to relieve the national debt?
Virgil
05-29-2006, 04:46 PM
:lol: Why would setting a forest fire relieve the national debt?
If it's legal to do so, OK, but if it's illegal than no.
Would you crash a friend's party knowing that he did not invite you on purpose?

No--he or she has the right to decide his or her own guest list.
Same question!

No. His party, his rules. bottom line.
Do you feel comfortable lending books to other people, especially a rare book you had a hard time finding? ;)
AimusSage
05-29-2006, 05:01 PM
No, definately not comfortable, I'd have to really trust the person, and even then I would have severe doubts. I'm very protective of my books. :)
Same Q.
My answer strongly depends on who I lend the book to, and how trustworthy I consider him/her. I have let friends borrow very prized books of mine, but literally have them promise and swear they will bring it back in the same condition.
To the person below me: same question.
imthefoolonthehill
05-30-2006, 04:38 AM
nope
would you call the cops on a member of your immediate family if you thought it would help him break an addiction with illegal substances?
If I felt it necessary, yes, but I would first try several alternatives, including possible admission to rehabilitation. If the substance abuse brought a family member to any harm of himself/herself, or to others, then I may jump to conclusions a little quicker.
Same question. ;)

I couldn't say it any better. That's exactly what I would do.

Same answer...
Would you consider an all chocolate diet for a duration of 1 week for 10000 dollars???
as in breakfast, kunch and dinner.. water permitted...
Virgil
05-30-2006, 12:26 PM
No. It would make me sick. One day at work a few years ago, someone brought in a whole lot of chocolate (it was probably after Halloween from their kid's trick or treating) and I got one of those addictions where you can't stop eating. By lunch time I was ready to throw up and I felt so sick. They still remind me of that episode if one of them sees me eating a piece of chocolate.
Same Q.
AimusSage
05-30-2006, 01:02 PM
I'll be sick for a week if it earns me 10000, besides I've been known to eat enormous amounts of chocolate already, never got sick of it before :)
Same Q.
kathycf
05-30-2006, 01:23 PM
Agreed. If it is only a week, I wll eat the chocolate. $10,000 pays off a big chunk of my student loan! Of course I may have to take a few extra walks...
If someone asked you to do something similiar, like wearing the same socks for a week for a large amount of money, would you? Say $15,000, or the equivalent in the currency of where you live...
For $15,000, sure, though I would cringe the whole time! :sick: :eek2:
Would you ever go on a long hiking trip (almost a week) with friends, carrying bare necessities, such as food, water, clothes and a tent?
(a few friends of mine do this every summer in different destinations, but I feel quite unsure :p)
Pendragon
05-30-2006, 02:24 PM
Would love it! Anyone got the time and equipment, I live in the mountains along the Appalachian Trail. :nod:
Same question.
AimusSage
05-30-2006, 02:55 PM
I've done it twice before, although both instances were only 4 days. would do it again if given the opportunity ah, choices. :)

Would you burn down a cell phone tower if Verizon sent you a bill charging 3000 dollars more than it should have?
sHaRp12
05-30-2006, 10:55 PM
no, because youd surely go to jail. And if it was a mistake than you could just fix it right?
Would you donate a liver for a friend. But not that good of a friend.
Considering that one requires a liver to live (hence its name, originating from the same verbal root), no; but I have seriously considered whether I desire to donate bodily organs after death.
To the person below me: would you ever donate an organ?
Virgil
05-31-2006, 12:04 AM
I've already signed up for organ donor. But that's only if they find me brain dead. I guess your question pertains to donating an organ where I live, like a kidney. For a family member or a really close friend, I would.
Same Q.

As far as I'm concerned, you can do whatever you please with my body after I'm done with it, as long as you don't bury it (waste of agricultural topsoil). As to when I'm alive: anything I'm not using is pretty much up for grabs.
What do you want to happen to your body when you die? (Buried? Cremated? Stuffed?)
smilingtearz
05-31-2006, 01:02 AM
stuffed :lol:.. roasted and enjoyed at dinner! :lol:
no, actually i'd like to be kept in a glass coffin.. like snow white was kept by the seven dwarfs... but buried is the more practical thought..
same Q
cuppajoe_9
05-31-2006, 01:08 AM
Cremated. As I've said before, burial is a waste of good agricultural topsoil. Actually, I'd like to be cremated Gram Parsons style, if possible. (Gram Parsons, if you've never heard this story, was doused in gasoline and set alight in the middle of a desert by his friends, in accordance with his wishes.)
Would you rather have the ability to walk through walls, or the ability to become invisible?
Mililalil XXIV
05-31-2006, 01:22 AM
To become invisible at this time. It would be nice to overhear every single bit of advantageous information and never think things of a negative nature that are not so. If I felt more settled in life, then to walk through walls.
good question to give a fair run.
RobinHood3000
05-31-2006, 05:19 AM
Ooh, good one. Invisibility would be nice (girl's locker rooms and all that jazz), but I'd have to say walking through walls. Then I wouldn't have to go around the fence everytime I accidentally hit a tennis ball over it (happens quite a bit, I assure you).
Same question!
smilingtearz
05-31-2006, 06:22 AM
invisiblity... a lot of reasons.. but you wouldn't really want to know..
