Ironbound 110 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Oh, it pertains to a game. Nevermind then. I'm fairly sure I already did that in exchange for math powers. We agreed upon an escalation clause to factor in the incremental cost of thinking as I progress in my career, but the surrender of my soul was an absolute single instalment. That may be why I can't be really satisfied with anything anymore, and can only inexorably think of what next to do. The devil and I both know this, and that even as I achieve more and more I'll be less and less satisfied until death. Fair deal, really, he can get his kick of schadenfreude out of me, plus the fixed deposit of my soul on which he accrues interest, and I am okay with sacrificing pleasure on the altar of gain, nevermind the slow death by stress, coffee overload and the loss of my hobbies. What about you? Same question. Link to post Share on other sites
Yours Truly 28 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I wouldn't, the devil never trades for a soul; that's just the mark left by whoever wrote Faust. Also the question assumes that I have a soul. What would you do if you knew that everyone on earth would die tommorow? Link to post Share on other sites
Ironbound 110 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Secure myself the location of, access to, and the means to reach and return to a suitable place from, the Chang-la Himalayan Seed Vault, since I can't expect to live off stores and supermarkets for ever. Of course, if your question implies that I myself will also perish along with the rest of humanity the next day, I should set my affairs in order and terminate any contracts I may have in execution, and settle down peacefully to wait. This also assumes that I can do nothing to have even the slightest chance to preserve myself or anyone else, in which case I would already have done, or would have attempted to do, whatever needed to be done. Though really, the likelihood of such an event is remote. What about you? Same question Link to post Share on other sites
Zey 1 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Freak out since it's my worst fear. Freak out because I wouldn't feel worthy enough to even try and avoid it from happening. Freak out because I just wouldn't know what to do, end up accepting what is going to happen and move on, onto the next life or however an afterlife works if there is one. Lighter topic.If you had the change to go anywhere for a holiday, where would you go? Link to post Share on other sites
Ironbound 110 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I live in a tropical paradise already; I've no reason to go anywhere further than the outskirts of my city or at the most a few hours' drive to the nearest seashore. Honestly, I prefer spending time at home. I don't exactly mind travel, but what I look for when I take a holiday is peace and some rest from my usual schedule. Undertaking a journey just for that, when it is available already at home, seems counterintuitive. These questions are all interesting enough to ask of the next person as well. Same question.

Anstane 71 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Personally, I'd like to visit Norway. I prefer colder areas to warmer ones, plus the place just looks so beautiful from what I saw. Just being able to check out the fjords, maybe even see some auroras...yeah. Same question. Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 38 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I want to go to Costa Rica for a third time. The country is utterly gorgeous and I've had the time of my life when I've been there. I'd love to go back and stay among the locals like I did the first time I went, instead of on some big resort. Changing it a bit; if you could live anywhere, where would you want to live?

Tartar 103 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Personally, I'd like to visit Norway. Norway is always the answer. Norway is amazing. @Tempest I'd live where I live currently. I'd rather not move anywhere else. Denmark has free health care, a low rate of crime, high quality of education, nice infrastructure and a beautiful enviroment. Though if I was forced to move, I'd move to Norway, notably Oslo, because of the same reason I like to live in Denmark. Thoughts on Norway? Link to post Share on other sites
Ironbound 110 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I don't like cold places, my sinuses act up, and I am forced to wear ten times as much clothing as I normally do just to prevent myself from freezing. So no, probably never stepping out of the tropics. Besides, you don't get mangoes in Norway. What do you think of alola Exeggutor? Link to post Share on other sites
Adventurer 1 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 It looks kinda weird imo. Such a long neck. Can you cook food? And if you can, do you like it? Link to post Share on other sites
Ironbound 110 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Yes, I can cook food. And yes, I love my own cooking if I can satisfy myself with it. Food is to me an art, both in the making and in the eating. Cuisines do vary with culture very widely, though. Therefore it is difficult for a person who is not of a particular culture to truly appreciate all the nuances of its cuisines. That is especially true for a vast and multidimensional culture like India; each region has its own tradition and subculture of cuisine that has evolved over millennia, and each boasts enormous diversity. Getting to understand all the different kinds of cooking in Indic cuisines alone is a lifetime's worth of professional study. What about you? Same question. Link to post Share on other sites
EliteFlyingTaco 13 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I can cook food, albeit poorly. What's your record for chubby bunny? Link to post Share on other sites
Tartar 103 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I've been cooking for quite a long time and do think myself quite proficient at it by this point. And if I didn't like my own food, I wouldn't cook. And compared to Viridescent, I like to diversify my cooking by seeking inspiration from other cuisines than my local one's (perhaps because Danish cuisine is rubbish), and I always like to try new recipes or put new twists on old ones. Cooking is both fun and delicious therefore it is something I greatly enjoy doing. Especially the scientific aspect of cooking is fun to read about and to put into practice. Same question, because I can't think of a better one. Edit: That ninja O_o I haven't tried the Chubby Bunny challenge. We have an equivalent "challenge" over here in Denmark though. We have these types of cookies called "Mary's cookies" which are really thin butter cookies, and the challenge is how many of said cookies you can have in your mouth at once and still rotate them in your mouth without breaking them. There, my record is 3. I'm asking the food question again. Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 38 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Sort of... I'm not a good chef and I don't enjoy it, but I do know how to. What's your dream job? Link to post Share on other sites
Ironbound 110 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I'll not answer that here. I believe that such things lose potency if one talks about them. If we are still in touch after a couple of decades or so, you'll know for yourself. Where's your favourite place to be? Link to post Share on other sites
Tartar 103 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 In front of my desk, while it's quiet and I watch squirrels and birdies play in my garden through my window. On a hill in a forest gazing upon the sunset in midsummer is great too. Cruising along the coast of a fjord in Norway is quite breathtaking too. I have lots of favorite places, it seems. I'll ask the same question, because I'm boring it seems. Link to post Share on other sites

Zey 1 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Boots for sure but it sucks because I can't wear them most of the time. Favourite character in Reborn? Link to post Share on other sites

Tartar 103 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Magnezone, too many people use him. Who's the best character in Reborn?? And why is it Anna? Link to post Share on other sites
Ironbound 110 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 It's Magnezone. A lot of people use him for that reason. HE IS GOOD, HE IS THE BEST, HE IS A VERY VALUABLE ASSET. Ahem, anyway. Which Pokemon are you scared of, and for what reason? Link to post Share on other sites
Adventurer 1 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 None. Every Pokémon has it's weakness. But if they are are set up to sweep with a huge (special) attack and speed. Then I'm out. What do you know about my country, Belgium? Btw, I can cook but damn, I hate it. I need a woman in my life who likes cooking. Link to post Share on other sites
