Get 2 Know Each Other Game!!

Originally posted by Oni x xi would go back through my dads side of the family. because we hardly know about my dads side, and i would like to know how they lived and what they were like. they would live in the US, i have know idea where in the US. and what i would bring back would be pictures of my family.

you were kidnapped and put on an island: you were allowed to take three things or persons, what would you choose and why??

Interesting answer Oni x x.... As for people.... I'd have to bring the most attractive, unattached/single, hetrosexual, female military survival instructor I (or rather, my kidnappers) could find; one of those big honking Rambo all purpose survival knives; and a snorkling set (mask, flippers & snorkle) and if I could only have one item from the set ... I'd take the mask, because a snorkle and flippers could probably be fashioned by Ms. Survival Instructor from things on the island. Why not my wife and son? I wouldn't want to put them through that kind of hardship. Why take Ms. Survival Instructor? I ain't no fool!

If you could be anyone else, that is to say, assume the body and life of any other person presently alive ... who would it be, why that person and what would your first order of business be (i.e., what's the first thing you'd do) and why that? Shades of "Heaven Can Wait" and/or "Being John Malkovich"....

Oops! Sorry there truttseeker... Guess we was typing at the same time and you finished before me.

I'd want to be George "Dubya" Bush. With a little excercise, a haircut, some dye, some contacts, and massive facial plastic surgery, I think I could handle being in his body- although I would have to walk on stilts because I've always enjoyed being bigger than everyone else and I'd hate to give that up.
Order of business?
1. Have an affair with the Republican Party's favorite porn star- Mary Carey.
2. Consequently divorce Laura and make sure the kids took her side in the matter and never spoke to me again.
3. Go on Television with an inexplicable sudden boost in intellect and speaking skills to pitch a new energy policy to the American people, some military reorganization, and encourage people to organize ballot initatives to reform ballot access and election laws.
4. Having righted a few wrongs, resign from the presidency move to Sky Valley, California, where I would buy up a few acres and become a survivalist nut, building things for myself which would be easier just to buy.
5. From time to time emerge from my compound to dress up like a character out of the Matrix and stalk through the streets of Las Vegas at night dispensing vigilante justice in between trips to the craps table and the Pepper Mill restaurant


My question for the next person:
In 48 hours, 90% of the worlds population is going to be killed by a series of natural disasters. You are the only one in the world who has any clue. You have an extremely thin chance of survival if you immediately start preparing, and no chance if you just accept your fate and try to make the most of your last two days.
Do you try to escape, and if not, how do you spend your last 48 hours of life?

i would make the most of my 48 hours!

i would go out and try as many different things possible and i would jump out of an aeroplane, do a bungie jump!

pull all my mates sexy boyfriends, and as many different men i could find (pulling= kising! not sex!!)

i would try everything!!

you were in a hot air ballon and you were flying over mountains and the ballon was going down and if you carried going down you would crash and all die.
you had a young baby, a middle aged woman, and a old man, the hot air ballon instructor and yourself. you had to chuck one person off to survive! who would it be??

oni x x

Totally the baby. Not only do I hate kids, but everyone else is a valued member of society. I know, I am a monster. But I embrace it, so it's all good.

Favorite footwear?

I've got a pair of combat boots which my feet will love once the blisters callus over.

DE

Definatly thongs...being an aussie, thongs go with everthing from jeans, boardies and trousers. without doubt the most versitle and confortable of all footwear and cheapest. haha

What is your current longest relationship or if you are still together how long has it been so far???

About 2 months, just ta let you know I'm only 15.

What do you think is your coolest quality?

That I can be happy during the darkest situations. Though I think that's mostly due to the fact that the most terrible things don't happen near me. For example, during 9/11 (Please don't stone me, I'm not a monster, really!) I was kinda annoyed at the networks for not showing my favorite shows. Instead they showed the buring 2 towers and stuff. I guess it all seemed so unreal since I had never been there.

So how many scars do we all have here?

Not sure about any one else, but I have six on one knuckle alone. Left index, middle knuckle. Two from a hand saw, three from a trampoline pipe being jamed onto it stapler like, by a friend who jumped onto the tramp when I was setting the legs in place. Four by barb wire, and five and six from pocket knife. Also on left hand, middle and ring fingers right above nails, have scars from boyscout blade while making frog spear, two fingers one swipe. Right hand I caught a hatchet blade first, scar on half of index finger 4mm long to the bone. Second scar on right hand is froma bensenji bite, only a little puncture. That makes ten, if I havn't lost track yet, ok above my right eye have scar from running into table while a toddler, thats eleven, twelve is right above nice gash from a big yellow, metal tonka dump truck. Thirteen through 17 are paintball scars, left forearm and elbow, right tricep, left shoulder blade and left lower ab. I have the 18th on on my nose when it got broke, 19 is on right knee from a boulder.

Number 20 is on bottom of right foot, from stepping on a risty nail, resulting in first tetnes shot. I'll count the shoulder tatoo as one scar bringing totoal to 21 (if my math is still solid), but it has many little ones.

I also have a scar on my third leg if that counts as 22. 23 is a burn scar inside right elbow, and right next to it is 24 in the form a a near cresent, caused from running through thorns. 25 and 26 are eye scars, both on same eye, also caused from running through thorns. That is about it, those are the ones I know of any ways. Oh wait 27, left peck, knife stab. Right shoulder has four slash marks from a sword, self inflicted. Handleing was not done with caution. So that makes 31 correct? I knew I had more, but had to find them again.


Are any of you ambidextrous?

I am.
Was an efficient switch hitter when I played baseball in high school.
Could and can effectively throw left handed, as well.





seekerof

Me too, seekerof.
*thought I should mention I am mainly a lefty tho*
Now where's your question, hippy.

[edit on 1-9-2005 by siFtInG]

I can switch hit, as a matter of fact, despite being right handed, I actually hit much better left (I'm not left eye dominant either- I just get the bat around faster left for some reason). I had a teacher who was not only ambidexterous, but could write with both hands at the same time- to show off he would start in the middle of a word and write outward with both hands (of course he could only do this with a couple of words which he had practiced).

So new question to get us rolling again:
Suppose that tomorrow the economy utterly collapsed.
Would you:
A. Retreat into the boondocks and just farm for yourself / found a little cooperative community with some friends and try to survive apart from the rest of the world.
B. Move from place to place chasing work, relying on your skill in whatever trade you know.
C. Become a thief/raider/criminal of whatever kind.
D. Join the military.
E. Try to leave the country.

If I had the proper resources A. Not ambidextrous, only have 2 scars.

What's your self-esteem on a scale from 1-100?

[edit on 9/2/2005 by DucKid]

Well, how would I rate my self esteem.
I guess I'll break it down into catagories.

Mental/Intellectual: 25/25
Social: 8/25
Physical/Sexual: 12/25
Misc. Skills: 15/25

Total: 60 out of 100.

And to answer my own question from above- I'd do a combination of A and C. I'm not above raping and pillaging, and frankly I do see the appeal there, but I'd sort of enjoy the pride of being self sufficient and the stability of a semi-normal life, so I'd want to try and build my own small settlement and just get by for the most part, and just sort of make a little extra money in my free time as a highwayman, black marketer, hired gun, or what have you. I guess untold hours of playing Fallout have just really left me with the urge to run around in a post apocalyptic wasteland blasting the crap out of people for fun and profit.

Edit:
Forgot to ask a question.

If you could do your absolute favorite thing every single day, or NEVER EVER do the same thing twice for as long as you live, which would you prefer?

[edit on 3-9-2005 by The Vagabond]

Decisions, decisions, those are actually two very difficult questions to answer. One of my favorites things to do is draw or paint a picture of anything. Just give me a pencil, preferably mechanical, and a pad of paper and I'll go at it. Sometimes I'll draw things on my computer.

For example
