Interview the person below you.

[sillyseal]

For me it was when I realised that others were not me, it was the most significant because the rest followed from there. Sounds odd I know but it actually makes a lot of sense. At least to me.

Q. What is the most significant event you recall that made you aware of your Self as an individual?

 

I guess it was the acknowledgement of my own existence and how I always viewed the world threw my own eyes to gain a personal perspective. No one else can be a bigger part of me than I am to myself so I am an individual. Being an introverted little child, I always had a sense of individuality. "I think therefore I am" kinda thing.


Q: Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Q: Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Ah! The ultimate evolutionary strawman question! This illustrates the fundamental miss-understanding  of the nature of natural selection leading to evolutionary change. At the level of the individual organism there is no evolution. It's the gene pool that evolves and at any given moment an individual is neither the same as that which precedes it nor that which follows it. A chicken is an abstract human concept applied to a group of organisms that can breed with each other and generally look pretty similar. So the question is an example of ignorant thinking.

Q. What should you really be doing?

[Cecilie]

I suppose I should be eating breakfast. I'm not hungry though.

Q: What do/did your parents do for a living?

[Tank]

I suppose I should be eating breakfast. I'm not hungry though.

Q: What do/did your parents do for a living?

Nothing. They're dead.  

Roll over question!

I did say do (slash) did, didn't I?

[Tank]

I did say do (slash) did, didn't I?

My Mum was a nurse till she met my dad and then she became a housewife. My dad was a trained accountant but went on to be a very good salesman of electrical goods. Funny thing was I went onto be a salesman and I covered his sales area and crossed over on some products so I got to visit some of his customers as my customers!

Q. What would you most like to do on a day off?

[Cecilie]

[The Magic Pudding]

I would like to achieve a lasting peace in this world, and feed the hungry, and bridge the gap between different faiths and solve that cold fusion problem.

Q. Do you think that's a bit ambitious for one day off?

[Tank]

I would like to achieve a lasting peace in this world, and feed the hungry, and bridge the gap between different faiths and solve that cold fusion problem.

Q. Do you think that's a bit ambitious for one day off?

Not really given what god managed in 7 days. Mind you, if he'd done his job right in the first place you wouldn't need to wast your day off doing it would you!

Q. What is your most disgusting habit?
(and don't make one up!)

[The Magic Pudding]

My flawlessness, it leaves my isolated from the unclean masses.

Q. You have a chance to whisper in the ear of the mad prophet founders of religion, can you nudge them somehow? I'm thinking a caring physical encounter with a fellow human should be a good, I'm sure these guys need lots of advice.

[Will]

I'd probably want to talk to Paul, assuming he existed, and I'd basically walk him through the history of the universe, revealing everything I know about astronomy, geology, biology, physics, and chemistry. I'd want him to have the chance to take a step back and be in awe of the true majesty of the universe, and to expand the scope of his understanding so that this myth he's become so wrapped up in becomes nothing by comparison.

What was the happiest moment of your life so far?

That's a good answer, Tank, but silly seal didn't ask which came first, the chicken (as in a group of animals that are genetically similar enough to reproduce within itself and produce fertile offspring which change the group's gene proportion  per generation based on natural selection) or the chicken egg   :yay:

Speaking of eggs, Easter time soon.  

What was the happiest moment of your life so far?

It was based on the realization that happier moments are still possible and might happen. Hollow answer there...

Question: did you ever believe in the Easter Bunny? If so, up to what age?

[Asmodean]

Question: did you ever believe in the Easter Bunny? If so, up to what age?

I once ate an Easter Bunny... That counts, yes?  

Question: Do you honestly do anything at all in order to "save" environment from "humans"? (It has to be something you would not have done if not for personal environmental concerns)

[xSilverPhinx]

lol

I don't collect my dog's poo during her walks. I used to, I would put them in plastic bags and throw them in the bin but I re thought that and changed my ways. I choose stategic places for her to do her business though. I also take (if I remember to) a cloth bag I have when going on quick supermarket trips, to be one less consumer of plastic bags.

Not that those will have a big impact for good, though.  

Question: What would you consider to be your worse bad habit?

[Asmodean]

:eek: You ate a bunny?

Question: What would you consider to be your worse bad habit?

Setting a bad example to those easily influenced. Before it was a hobby, now... It's just what I do.

Question: Short of threat to your own life and health, what would be a sufficient cause to get you to kill?
