What oft-repeated quote or common cliché do you find the most annoying when someone says it to you?


View 540 Answers



As a matter of fact... or For the simple fact... or the fact of the matter is...


It's filler, and I hate it.

Be concise. Don't pad your sentences with the verbal equivalant of unflavoured gelatin. Just say it and be done.

Have you ever tried to change yourself for someone you were in a relationship with (or wanted to be in a relationship with)? Did it work?


View 501 Answers




Ugh. Nnnggh.

BAD.

I was in a relationship with someone who tried to 'better me'. He gave advice on how to dress, where to go, where to shop, and his opinions were always 'right'. He liked bigger guys, and was all the time taking me out to eat, or buying food or snacks for me. I liked it because it was attention and free food, and what fat kid doesn't like people handing him cake? But I didn't 'want' to be overweight, and he wasn't helping that.
Really, wht he was trying to do was make me into a less abusive version of his last boyfriend because he wanted out of that relationship, didn't want to be in a 'relationship' with me, but didn't want to be alone.

I was changed. We all get changed by relationships. If we're not, then you're not really in a relationship. At least I can look back on it and see that I'm not that person anymore.
I'm better off for it, in all honesty. I mean, you can't be happy about where you are unless you know where you've been.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?


View 503 Answers


ENGLAND, KTHXBYE.

Particularly London, as it just seems so damn interesting.

Once I was there for a bit, (assuming I have unlimited time and money, obv)I'd travel to France to see Rob, then Italy, then the gorgeous parts of Spain.

That's one trip.

The other would go the other way, hitting the West Coast of America, then jetting to Japan for a few weeks, relaxing in Hawaii for a week on my way back.

Which of the seven deadly sins—sloth, greed, lust, gluttony, anger, envy, and pride—are you most likely to commit?


View 501 Answers


Sloth, Lust, Gluttony, Anger, and Envy. I've been guilty of those many times. Pride, not so much. I've been satisfied before, and proud of my work, but I think there's a difference.

What celebrity would you consider changing your sexual identity for?


View 503 Answers


This is the worst question from this thing I've ever seen.
First, I believe they were asking 'what celebrity would you have a sex change for?' Sexual identity is not the same as sexual preference. Just because you want to have sex with the same gender does not mean you can sexually identify with the opposite gender. I'm a gay male. I identify sexually as a man. To suddenly become female would cause a world of problems for me, as I kinda find vajayjay repulsive. I don't wanna touch it, much less have one myself.
Further, if you're going to have a sex change, it should be because you sexually identify as a gender other than what you are, not because someone else wants you to. If Brad Pitt will only sleep with me if I'm a woman, then I guess he'll be missing out. I'd gladly sleep with Lucas Black, but he'll have to be okay with me being a guy. As far as women go, even though I'm gay, there's still a few celeb women I'd have sex with, just because. Like Madonna, for instance. If she rolled up and said 'You. Me. Bed. Now.' I'd be like 'Yes ma'am.' because HELLO! it's Madonna! But I'm not going if she wants me to be a woman first. Why? Cause I have no desire to be one.

So, now that I've totally beaten the dead horse, my answer would be NONE. This was a poorly worded question. I should have just ignored it and moved on, but it pissed me off.

It's the last day in office for George Bush. There's been a lot of talk in the media lately about Bush's legacy. What do you think he will be most remembered for?


View 500 Answers



Being an asshat?

No, that's not quite right.

He'll be remembered for being an overbearing, biggoted, uneducated, self-absorbed, self-righteous asshat.

Yeah, that's about right.

Pushing Daisies. Already.

I'd say Dead Like Me, but I never watched it while it was on. Only after it was on DVD did I give it a try.

Basketball. Why, you ask? Because I'm fucking short, and no one ever threw me the fucking ball. I ran back and forth along the court for a whole hour, accomplishing nothing.

Thanks for bringing up THOSE memories.

The Twilight movie comes out today. A lot of people are really excited about seeing Bella and Edward on the big screen. Others couldn't care less. Where do you fall on the issue?

I really couldn't give half a shit.
I haven't read the books, and don't want to. It looks like Dawson's Creek with vampires. All I have to say is, there was this movie a while back called Interview with a Vampire. Watch THAT if you want a good vamp flick. Read the book, too. It's Anne Rice before she went batshit crazy.

I'm done.

If you started a restaurant, what would it serve, what would it look like and what would you name it? You have an unlimited budget.

Submitted By [info]crazygirl33087

I'm writing this ideally and with no budget involved.

I'd like to build a restaurant in the ocean, around a reef. You'd take a boat to a floating entrance platform/bar. From there you board a vessel to take you to the restaurant itself. I picture this vessel being kinda like a ski lift, only enclosed and ventilated. The resturaunt would have vast reinforced glass walls (like an aquarium) and calm ambient lighting with lots of mahogany and wood finish on the furniture. I'd serve very classic entrees: steak, seafood, etc... what you'd expect from a very nice gourmet resturaunt. I'd have live music, like concert pianists and string quartets. Chocolate would take up a large part of the dessert menu. I'm not sure what I'd name it... maybe Fathoms.
