Just don't ask me if I'd jump off of a bridge if everyone else was doing it.

Stolen from approximately 2/5ths of my flist.

Ask me a question about each of the following:

1. Friends
2. Sex
3. Music
4. Drugs
5. Love
6. Livejournal

No matter how rude, sexual, or confidential. Then post this in your journal and see what questions you get asked.

No questions. There are some things a father should NOT know.

Even though I'm comfortable knowing how you'll answer.

Dad - with a few more gray hairs.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Don't worry Dad, the two freak-out topics are mainly going to be answered with N/A, unless they are theoretical.

You will not be traumatized by your daughter's answers.

[glacierscout.livejournal.com]

Why do you think I answered the way that you did?

[littlelessevil.livejournal.com]

Hee. I almost asked you a question until I realized that your dad was reading this.

So I changed it!

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Hey, go ahead and ask the other question anyway. I can pretty much promise that my answer wouldn't be something I'd be embarassed about telling him.

[littlelessevil.livejournal.com]

Err...

Well it was "Have you ever caught your parents having sex?"

[glacierscout.livejournal.com]

There's a family joke that parents NEVER had sex - well, maybe four times (four kids after all).

She has seen us being affectionate, and we have had PDA called on us a few times.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

dustbunnies, Daddy, dustbunnies. No sex involved.

[sirutka.livejournal.com]

In my family My brother and I are of the belief that both he and I were immaculately conceived. Normally this is said shortly after we’ve had to stick our fingers in our ears and shout “LALALALALALA”

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Not that I can recall.

Of course, by the time that I was aware enough to realize what sex was, I had been in the basement bedroom for several years, and had no need to go to my parent's room at night.

1. What would be a "deal-breaker" for you in a friendship?

2. Um...have you ever been afraid you were about to be assaulted?

3. What is your least favorite type of music and to what lengths would you go to avoid it?

4. Have you ever been under anesthesia?

5. Aside from you family, who do you love most in the world?

6. On which page (your own, friends, community, etc.) do you spend the most time? (besides H_E)

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

1. Probably betrayal of either myself or my other friends.

2. No, actually. I tend to believe the best in people, usually I'm not disappointed. I've never felt like I've been put into a position of danger around men. That and I avoid potentially dangerous situations.

3. Rap/Heavy Metal, where every other word is a curse word or they're yelling at the top of their lungs and your eardrums risk being shattered. I'll normally try to shut out wherever the music is coming from, or if I can't and I know the people who are playing it, I'll ask them politely to turn the music down a notch.

4. Full anasthesia, where they put you under and you're unconcious? No. Locals, like for teeth and stuff? Yeah, a few times.

5. Gah, this is hard. Probably the bracket of friends that I've mentally labeled as "family in all but blood". I couldn't name just one person though.

6. Probably my friendspage.

1. If you had to sacrifice one of your friends to a volcano, who would you select?
2. Do you think people discuss sex too causually?
3. What artist do you think is really overrated?
4. Which drug do you think would be most pleasent to be on?
5. Is love more important than family?
6. Do you ever worry about what people think of you on here?

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

1. None of them? I can't stand others being hurt, especially when I'm attached to them. I'd prefer to go myself, but I'd ask someone to knock me out first so that I wouldn't have to dread it.

2. Not in general. I think sometimes the attitude about sex in our culture is out of proportion to it's importance, and that certain people spend far too much time focusing on it, but I don't really think people discuss sex too casually.

3. I don't pay too much attention to mainstream music and gossip. I do think that a lot of celebrity musicians are more highly valued for their outside stunts than they are for their musicality.

4. Having only experienced cough medicine, which left me with a pronounced distaste for the sensation of being high, I don't think I'd want any of them. I really hated feeling that out of control of my own body.

5. Do you mean romantic love? If so, not really. This may be influenced by the fact that I haven't fallen in love with anyone yet. As for other forms of love, well, that includes familial love and here we run into the issue where my friends are loved to the same degree and in much the same way as my family, and so you're asking me to choose between two things that I don't really make a division over in my mind.

6. No, not really. I'm more concerned with acting in a way that I'd approve of me acting. Whether or not someone else approves of it doesn't register as an important factor. Of course, I prefer to be liked rather than disliked, but if someone doesn't like me, that's up to them. My worrying about it won't change a thing in their minds, and it would probably make me more self-concious and upset. I try to avoid making myself more miserable than I really have to be.

1. What is the worst thing a friend has ever done to you?
2. Believe sex before marriage is right or wrong - or no opinion on the matter at all?
3. Favorite song of all time?
4. Would you ever try heroin, under any circumstances (even torture)?
5. Do you want a love like you dreamed of when you were five?
6. Least favorite person on LJ & why?

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

1. Accused me of having done something I never would have done. It hurt on a few levels, one that she didn't know me as well as I thought she did, and the other that she thought I was capable of doing something like that. We sorted the whole thing out, as it was mainly a misunderstanding, but it still hurt that she thought I would act that way maliciously.

2. I believe that sex outside of a loving, commited, consesual relationship between two adults is wrong and hurtful to both of the individuals involved. Inside of a loving, commited, consensual relationship between two adults, I don't see anything wrong with it. Given that America's laws don't currently allow for same sex marriage, it seems wrong for me to tell homosexual couples that they cannot have sex with each other, and given that my parents weren't married (engaged, but not married) when they concieved my oldest sister, it would be a bit hypocritical for me to say that those couples shouldn't have sex with each other.

3. I can't decide! It all depends on my mood. Currently one of my favorites is "I'm Going to Go Back There Someday", as sung by Gonzo in The Muppet Movie, but that may change tomorrow.

4. Under torture, probably, as I'm not one for voluntarily undergoing any more pain than I have to. (Of course, that then makes me wonder why they'd want to torture me into taking heroin, of all things.) Otherwise, no.

5. When I was five, I don't think I even really paid much attention to the opposite gender to dream of love. That being said, if you mean do I dream of an idealized love where everything is perfect and there's never any problems, no. That's not realistic and I want a real person and a real relationship, even if it is hard work at times and the other person frustrates me. I've seen what a good real relationship looks like in my parents and others around me, I want that for myself, with all the joys and pains associated therin.

6. Least favorite person that I know of? There are several people who, from what I've heard of them, I dislike them for their actions and attitudes. But I don't really think of them that much, so I don't think that counts. Least favorite person that I interact with at least tangentally on a semi-regular basis? Maybe furiosity, just because her personality and attitudes are so foreign to mine that I don't understand her that much, and I don't think that we have that much in common. In that case, there's nothing wrong with her personally, but I think that she'd be a very uncomfortable person for me to interact with long term from what I've seen of her on H_E.
