sunday questions... what would you answer?

 

From SundayStealing...

 
 1. What’s something no one wants to hear but everyone should?
A: Do the right thing, even when it's difficult 

2. What’s the most annoying animal you’ve ever encountered? 
A:  we had a cedar home in MD and woodpeckers were always pecking holes into it!! I became like Elmer Fudd when I heard the tapping running out screaming waving my arms


3. How much does language affect our thinking?
A: we think in words...I'm interested and usually annoyed with the evolution of our language... how people communicate or not. We used to rely on facial  expression to help communicate but not with social distancing that's being lost. Some current 20 somethings don't seem able to convey meaning in words...scary. Luckily not all of them


4. Do you prefer to watch movies in the theater or in the comfort of your home?

A: home!

5. What topic could you spend hours talking about?
A: ART... and past lives... books...


6. If you could run away from it all and start fresh somewhere new, would you?
A: yes. oh yes please


7. What’s the most polarizing question you could ask a group of friends?
A: well I'm not bringing that up!


8. Do movies have the same power as books to change the world?
A: a good story is most important, and that stands alone in books. A good story turned movie needs good screenwriters, good actors, good directors. That said, movies reach a lot of people and they provide all the imagination for them.


9. What would you rate 10/10 ?
A: dh said, married life. 


10. What are you really good at, but kind of embarrassed that you are good at it? 
A: I think things through, and am logical but feeling at the same time. I can usually learn things quickly too. 
Often, I know things are going to happen, I see it as a gift from God


11. Who do you go out of your way to be nice to?
A: I automatically want to be nice to my friends and husband. Go out of my way.... neighbors? 


12. What problems will technology solve in the next 5 years? What problems will it create?
A.1: wouldn't it be wonderful if we discovered and USED alternate forms of energy? To save the planet?? Come on, you have to know we've damaged it...
A.2: communication technology is ironically pushing us apart. Some people can't converse in person now... which is a give and take. They feel free to say any thing they want on their terms even if it hurts others or the collective group. 
 
Things they might not say to a person's face. If you can't say it to someone directly then don't say it on social media.
 


13. What from the present will withstand the test of time?
A: stretch fabric in jeans
 


14. What movie would be greatly improved if it was made into a musical?
A: 


15. What is something common from your childhood that will seem strange to future generations?
A: pin the tail on the donkey? Hokey Pokey? Spaghetti-o's?

I want to give stretch fabric in jeans a BIG thumbs up!

Mari said...

Ha! Stretch fabric in jeans! Laughed out loud. As for what will be hard to explain to future generations-- newspaper delivery. And I agree that technology should bring us better energy choice, too. Have a good Sunday!

"If you can't say it to someone directly then don't say it on social media." I agree wholeheartedly!!!

You get the prize for the answer "stretch fabric in jeans". That is NEVER going away!!

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

I really enjoyed your answers and laughed at the last one. You put some real thought into them, especially the stretch fabric.

I completely get #5. Don't ever feel alone.
Oh yes, and thank God, there will always be stretch jeans. Women will go to war over few things but that's one of them. *wink* Hope you have a calm and thoughtful week. Namaste..

#12 Answer A2 - I agree. Social media is responsible for a lot of bad things despite the (so-called) benefits of it.

Take the Orange Goblin for instance.

Wow! These are all great questions! They made me think. We have a woodpecker on our house this spring too, but I would have to give the most annoying animal award to the yellowjackets who have built a nest under our shingles. Ugh!

Just a note. Based on a suggestion by Country Dew, I am changing the day I post Sunday Stealing questions to Friday instead of Saturday, so people have time to answer it on busy weekends.
