| 31 | My apartment (with three residents) has three phone lines: one dialout line for me, one "dialout" line for one of my roommates (though he rarely uses it for that, now that he has a cable modem), and one common line. Four phones in the house (one of which is a 2-line phone), and an answering machine. I also have a cellular phone (why do people keep saying "I'm sorry" when I mention it? It's not for work, I don't have to keep it turned on, and have it mostly in case of auto emergencies). *** JONAS: Besides emergencies, beepers/cell phones are useful when you need to hook up with someone at an impossible-to-predict time. (I tend to pick up people coming in from out of town at subway or bus stations a lot. The cell phone lets me do whatever I'd normally be doing while I wait for them, instead of remaining shackled to the phone in my house for a couple of hours.) That said, however... being -required- to carry a beeper/cell phone is the very PINNACLE of evil. I'll shut mine off whenever I damn well please, thank you. | Telephony |
| 32 | Babylon 5, hands down. No contest. (And I -like- the fifth season. So there. ;) | Which sci-fi television series do you like most (the list is not all inclusive): |
| 33 | I'd better leave a comment here, since I just claimed that I usually do... :) | When you're dealing with a survey on Survey Central, do you... |
| 34 | I can't say that I have an opinion on this. Not in terms of a particular style, anyway... there are beautiful and hideous version of each of these choices. | What kind of wedding dress do you think is the most beautiful? |
| 35 | Sight, almost certainly. Though physical contact is -very- important to me, so I'd probably rate that second. (I tend to give/receive a lot of hugs. When I can't -- because I'm sick, or what have you -- I tend to go a little bit nuts.) *** ROMKEY: Agreed, but that wasn't what I meant. I was trying to imagine how much it'd affect me if I lost each of the senses (not a pleasant thought), and I realized that if I lost the sensation of touch, it'd -really- mess me up. Totally and completely. I think only the loss of my sight would have a greater effect... and for that reason, I'd rank it as my secondary sense -- I depend on it that much. | Which is your primary sense? |
| 36 | Ok, two problems with this. One: I have never answered this question the same way twice. Two: I'd have to pick a first name that didn't actually sound ridiculous (and flows well) when followed by my (somewhat unusual) last name. Let's see, what can I answer that I haven't before? How about Leanne for a girl and Kevin for a boy? I had to think on the boy's name for a lot longer... I can think of a half dozen or so girls' names that I like off the top of my head (Ashley, Natalie, Nicole, Leah, Erica...), but I don't care for all that many boys' names. Weird. | If you had to name a child, what would you name it? |
| 37 | Average. Unless the fact that I've driven in Massachusetts for five years and have never gotten into an accident that was my fault (I got rearended at a stoplight once, that's it) qualifies me for "above average." Looking at the cavalcade of idiocy passing by on the roads here, maybe it does... *** Ha! I -didn't- fall into the inflated self-assessment category. :) | Rate your driving ability: (Cars only; no bikes, hovercraft, tanks, etc.) |
| 38 | The scientist bit. (Not that I have any hope of that, mind you.) That'd be the most beneficial to the people around me, I think... | If it were possible, I'd most like to become... |
| 39 | Kindness, Honesty/Integrity, Loyalty, Humor, and Similar Values. (Although for me, "Values" would be better described as "Priorities," I think.) Very good survey... I'd be interested to know how these numbers line up against those for a potential significant other. *** JONAS: True enough, but a "loyal" friend would not necessarily be -blindly- loyal. Loyalty and Honesty are not mutually exclusive, and I prefer my friends to be both... loyal to me, so long as I'm not being a complete idiot. | What qualities are most important in a prospective friend? Please choose no more than five. |
| 40 | No pattern. I've been on both ends (multiple times in the same relationship, even). I don't think I'll get the chance to add any more data points to that curve, either (he says, knocking on wood). *** LIZZIE: Hey! No fair stealing my answer before I got a chance to enter it. (Especially given the irony of it all... ;) | In the past, when my romantic relationships have come to an end... |
