I would probably want to purchase other things before making such a trip, especially paying for necessities like rent, electricity, groceries, etc., but it sounds fun! :nod:
To the person below me: would you consider yourself more assertive, passive, or aggressive, especially while solving problems?
I'm not sure i understand exactly what you mean while solving problems. I guess it depends on the problem and how confident I am of what I think is the solution. Let me say assertive, which I guess is more than passive and less than agrresive.Quote:

Would you combine a piece of precious metal or other valuable element with another element whose nature is corrosive to that of the first, just to see it sizzle?
YES! with protective eyewear if necessary.
Would you listen to the someone you truly love, if he said he did not want any friends at all (including you) ?
Listen and believe, that's what I'd do. Supreme selfishness can often exist in the midst of love.
Would you believe, and make it evident that you believe in shadow monsters on the street, if it were in your (monitarily speaking) best interest?
Yes, even if it weren't monitary or even if it weren't in my best interest, because there ARE shadow monsters in the street. They are agile, fast, strong and I carry wooden stakes in my car and garlic cloves on my person. So far, this has been enough protection, but it may not always be. My vigilance and awareness of the shadow world is the only thing that keeps me safe.
Q: A small town in California hosts an annual Banana Slug contest. This celebration involves dishes that include Banana Slugs as one of the ingredients. Would you eat anything if you were to attend this festival?
NO THANKS! I did eat escargot, not bad, but banana slug? I pass!
How about the fried tarantulas they dish out down in the tropics?
I'd give it a whirl.
Would you buy a particular cereal just to get the prize inside?
No!
Would you waist your money to impress somebody you love?
No, too many germs.
Would you go hungry for a day to make a point.
Sure, I'm going hungry for this day, and any point made will just be a bonus.
Would you welcome an assembly of well respected English professors with a well written speech about "Ezra Pound, author of the Declaration of Independence," for a gag?
It depends if the professors are friends and would appreciate the joke. Otherwise no.
Would go in a hot tub at a hotel in your underwear if you forgot your bathing suit?
Certainly not! Modesty above all. And I'm too skinny for hot tubs anyway.
Would you walk three miles for the beverage of your choice, if you had to walk?
It would depend on how thirsty I was.
And in answer to Virgil's would you: It would depend on who else is at the hotel and how well I knew those people and whether or not they had a camera. And if I were wearing white underwear (which are see-through when wet) I probably would NOT go in if the hot-tub if other people were there. And all of this could change if alcohol were to come into play.
If I were alone, the color of my underwear would not matter, and I probably would go in the hot tub no matter what (provided that the hot tub is clean looking and there are no wads of gum or other icky things on the bottom of it).
(I was preparing this reply to Virgil's and was too slow to post apparently, but since I spent all the time typing I thought I'd just go ahead and post it anyway).
Would you tell a coworker that you found his/her body odor offensive? Suppose your coworker comes to work every day with funky smells coming out of every crack and crevice and doesn't seem to be aware of the problem. Would you say something or would take a more subtle approach, such as putting your hand over your nose when this person speaks to you or spraying perfume and Glade in his/her general direction? If you told this person about it, it could really hurt his/her feelings. What would you do?
I'll speak to him/her in private and tell them about the situation. If he/she is angry at me at least it will save him/her further embarrassment
Would you...
If there was a little kitten on the ledge of a twenty storey building. Would you go to the top and rescue it???
