I'm not really fond of any of them.
If everyone does it, does that make it alright?

No. Everyone could simply be sharing the same delusion. Or people could just be doing it to fit in.
What is a good excuse for skipping your shift at work?
Global warming.
What should I get my niece for her confirmation?
A nice white dress
Do you ever argue with yourself?
All my conversations with myself are arguments.
What was the worst party experience you've had? If it's too embarrassing, what was the occasion for celebration?
It was an undergraduate party long ago, and the occasion was for everyone to get drunk
Do more good things or bad things remain in your memory over time?
I got extremely drunk off of someone's home made bathtub beer one New Years and made out with a couple girls not up to my uh... standards. It was also the first and only time I've ever been truly blackout drunk with no memory of what happened for several hours. A female friend of mine told me I was her New Year's kiss and that her boyfriend almost started a fight with me (which would have been my first and only fight), but I don't remember any of it happening. I didn't throw up but I should have, I felt terrible the next day.Quote:

Ever had a sexually transmitted disease?
Me too, although it usually doesn't interfere with my sleep. It's strange that the good things a person does require more effort to remember, but maybe that's just natural selection's way of keeping us from making the same stupid mistakes again.Quote:

What do you think of Frank Sinatra?
Talented crooner.
How about Bob Dylan?
Don't care for his singing, but the music is good.
What about Jimi Hendrix?
Talented guitarist, but I don't often care to be jarred like that by music.
Janis Joplin?
Rusty vocal cords, but love her "Me and Bobby McGee."
David Bowie?
One of my favorite bits from the Monterey Pop film is when Joplin and her band are performing "Ball and Chain", and the camera cuts to Cass Elliott in the audience just sitting open-mouthed. I think if Joplin had survived her lifestyle, she would have become an astonishing blues singer.
Edit (too slow again): Bowie is an artist in the best sense--creative, fearless, and seldom does the same thing twice.
Billie Holiday?
E: Holiday is one of the greats.
Joplin is alright, can't say I've listened to her that much, though
[Do Little Wing, Castles Made of Sand and The Wind Cries Mary jar you too, or All Along the Watchtower?]
Gary Moore?
