    Best way to learn a foreign language?

    Watch children's shows in the language you want to learn. Use note cards to stick all around your home to label items and so on and so forth.

    Your call is important to us...

    Lol, I know it's a means to weed out those who will not wait, but I know their sneaky tactics and if I have time I'll wait for hours if need be. Fortunately that hasn't been the case.

    Would you live on a tiny island?

    Only if I could have a good internet connection.

    Stop to Smell the Roses?

    I've really been trying to do this a lot more in the last few years. It's been rough since I've been dealing with a lot of life changes and health issues, but those things have been the catalyst. It's nice to be reminded every now and then that we should try to practice gratitude whenever we can.

    Would You Choose Fame at the Cost of Losing Those You Loved Along the Way?

    Hell no. Fame seems awful. Never being able to go out and do stuff without being harassed by paparazzi, fans, other media. Always having your personal business in the news or actively trying to hide it at every turn. In this day in age, with a camera in everyone's pocket, you'd be hard pressed...

    If a Trolley Was About to Hit a Large Group of People

    My initial thought would not be to have it hit anyone. I would do my best to get the groups attention and have them disperse.

    Is Honesty Always the Best Policy?

    Depends on the situation and repercussions. Pregnant wife asking husband if she looks like a fat cow? Hell no, honey! You're glowing! Fucked up at work and created a mess? Yeah, you should probably fess up.

    Working 40 hours a week

    Not only are we calculating the actual work week of 40 hours, but we often don't take into account the commute (unless you're WFH). Not to mention the fact that some people can't even have a livable wage unless they work two jobs, so a lot of people are working way more than 40 hours. I think...

    National Anthems

    I don't care about the national anthem. It feels very much like propaganda.

    Would you like to be a game designer?

    Pretty much this. I love video games, but I know what it takes to make them and that's not something I'm interested in doing unless it was writing the story or designing characters.

    Google Maps or....

    Google Maps or Waze.

    trick-or-treating dangerous?

    I don't think it's unsafe. As long as children are supervised up to a certain age or the teen is responsible and has been taught well, then it seems safe to me.

    Cinema or on TV?

    Depends on the film. If it's a big action movie that would serve better with louder speakers, bass, and a much larger screen then cinema. The rest of the time I'd rather just watch at home.

    Daylight savings time - yay or nay?

    One thousand percent yes. I don't understand why we haven't stopped using it already.

    Hate

    Hatred, I feel, is taught and stems from fear and ignorance typically. When someone doesn't understand someone or something, or they have had a traumatic experience, then hate will persist. Sometimes, it takes a lot of effort to rid of the emotion.

    People you don't like

    Ignore or block if I really don't want to see anything they post. Otherwise, not much else.

    Hours of TV watching?

    Is this ACTIVELY watching or just having it on in the background? Because that can vary wildly for me. Actively watching, I'd say maybe 2-3 if I'm really enthralled. The day matters, too, as well as the time of year. If there's TV shows on I want to watch, I'd spend more time. Sometimes, I won't...
