What is your craziest or more commonly challenged belief?

What is your craziest or more commonly challenged belief?
Some people seem to think that I am not a martian, but I am, so that is my most challenged belief.
Same Q.
I dunno, that authority is inherently violent and opressive, mayhap?
Pass the question.
That I have the prettiest feet around! The other day, my youngest son actually had the gall to tell me my feet weren't nearly as pretty as I thought they were. :rolleyes: :p
Same question...this is actually quite fascinating.
I'm glad you like it. Mine would have to be the crazy perception that I am crazy, which most people generally disagree with. There are the occasions though...

i wouldnt describe my belief as crazy. if i believe it, then it has to be a little logical, no? si.Quote:

Question... or rather, task.
using what you know about me which cant be more than 13 posts, guess my age, gender, education (none/primary school/junior high/senior high/Bachelors/masters/PhD. you get the point.), ethnic background, and country/state.
(doesnt sound like the kind of question this thread was expecting but i hope its not too irrelevant...)

OK, same question, only apply it to ME this time! (And with over 300 posts, most of them in just 20 or so games, plus a small handful of stories and poems, surely someone might have an idea about this!)
By the way, what score did I get?
better than most people but still quite off.Quote:

I live in PA. which is a pretty liberal state. my city is very liberal. my posts sounded blue i guess. why did you answer what you did for the other 3? and bachelors. what do you think was my major and minor? i wont tell you your score until you tell me your reasons.
ok. that was a tangent.
i say you are 53, have a phD in something related to comp sci, live in CO, and is male.
I ask the same question again. :P only because im on low battery.
I based it all on the single post that I was answering, simply because I didn't want to look up any other of your posts.
33... because you sound reasoned, jaundiced, and alive. That puts you older than frivolous college and younger than wisdom.
Male... because women don't normally admit to Hedonism
NY... because you sound liberal. California might have easily been my choice, though PA doesn't surprise me.
Bachelors... because you sound educated but not self-proclaimed or superior.
White, non-Hispanic... because you sound liberal, educated, American, and reasonably affluent.
Um... I'll just give a question to whomever may post below me... to the PBM...
Do you like or hate pink? Why?
you over estimated in age and education. I am flattered.
I am NOT as reasonable as I appear on the internet. nor as knowlegeble. MUAHAHAHHA.
I am in fact only 17 and still stuck in highschool. I'm looking forward to possibly majoring in math theory with a computer science minor.
as for gender, I'm a girl. but don't worry - people in REAL LIFE mistake me for male. I like shattering stereotypes. :D
speaking of stereotypes, although it is true that minorities like hispanic and african americans are generally less well educated (a pity. ought to be changed), well... yah. nevermind. I'm glad I have a good grasp of the English language. I'm Chinese. (came here when I was 7 though so I should be able to speak English as well as anyone else)
how far off the mark was I?
Wow!!! I am surprised!!
Light years off the mark! And you're Chinese!!! And 17!!!!
no, actually. better than most.
im usually an over 50 caucasian male with a masters. sometimes, I'm australian. Usually people guess california.
33 is closer than 55.
a program that did aging and can change people's "race" and whatnot showed me really wrinkly at 45. wrinkly and my left face had a HUGE droop in it. I'm enjoying 17.
soo... back from the digression. DIGRESSION! (reminds you of catcher in the rye, no?)
so... the game. what was the game? oh. new question.
If you were a fire fighter and you are in a room. there is a monkey with a human brain and a human adult with an intellectual capacity that will never surpass that of a 3 month old baby. both are unconsious from the smoke but otherwise physically healthy. both are equidistant from you and the door. they weigh the same amout. without looking for further loophools in the question, which one would you save and why?
Not bad! I'm 53, will be 54 at the end of this month. I have worked in Information Technology for nearly 30 years doing everything at one time or another from data entry to programming to hardware to software to system management to purchasing to trouble-shooting to help desk, and beyond. However, I don't have a degree in anything, finished only two years of college, and have also been a printing press operator, built submarines, and preached in prison (not an inmate, but a chaplain's assistant.) Yes, I'm from Colorado, too. Of course, you probably were able to research age, state, and occupation (grin). I'm male, but you didn't try your hand at ethnicity.
Of all of that, I think of myself as a writer, a storyteller, and not completely cranium-vacated when it comes to poetry.
As for your fire scenario, I'd prefer to rescue the ape, but guilt and social constraints would probably weigh in heavily enough to make me feel like I had no choice but to rescue the human instead.
Great question! It is worth passing on to see how other people value the elements of diversity this question poses.
