jackhammer

1. What modern convenience should never have been invented?
The mobile phone with inbuilt MP3 player. It is not big and not clever having to listen to godawful commercial rap/ RnB played through an awful completely inadequate mono speaker which is in turn held by chavs and chavettes.

Not hard to guess- Music and films, with a juice bar tacked onto the back.

I would like to think not. I think that many many people are narrow minded when it comes to music but music is just one facet of a persons personality.

6. It is more worthwhile and satisfying to improve the world or appreciate the world?
Both. I happen to think that the world can be a thing of beauty but I also get disheartened by our inability to attune ourselves better with it.

Anything that allows you to watch streaming video 'on the go', actually. If you saw somebody on the bus watching Family Guy and chuckling to themselves you would twat them, right?

2. If you could exchange places with any person from history, no longer alive, who would you want to have been?
Emily Brontë's boyfriend. If I were a boyfriend of the time-travelling variety I would warp us to the late 60's and start a toytown-psychedelia band called Brontësaurus.
Or Frank Zappa.

3. If you could choose the very last thing you would see before you die, what would it be?
Our sun going supernova. Something with explosions and ****

4. If you owned a store, what would you sell?
In a parallel universe I would be earning a good living selling records. Hard copies, in this day and age! Crazy.

5. Do you judge people solely by their musical preferences?
Ofcourse not, but if it's somebody who professes to be a bit of a music buff then I will judge them accordingly.

6. It is more worthwhile and satisfying to improve the world or appreciate the world?
What's to appreciate? If you can change anything you should, even if it's just the way you see the universe, maaan.

Seltzer

1. What modern convenience should never have been invented?
I agree with Wayfarer on this one... cellphones. Sure, they originally were genuinely quite useful for emergencies etc... now I hate them. What the hell happened to one person meeting another person in real life without a cellphone involved? I can't watch a movie or even an episode with my brother without him whipping out his cellphone every 30 seconds... sorry, but it ISN'T possible to watch Black Books effectively while using a cellphone, no matter what you think. It's as if cellphones parasitically leach from their owners and force them to lead double lives.

2. If you could exchange places with any person from history, no longer alive, who would you want to have been?
Frank Zappa comes to mind... I've always liked him, but lately I've been listening to nothing else.

3. If you could choose the very last thing you would see before you die, what would it be?

NZ thrashing England in the cricket... oh wait.

4. If you owned a store, what would you sell?
Music!

5. Do you judge people solely by their musical preferences?
I try not to... but I do think you can figure out some things about people from their musical tastes at times... but it is a flawed science. However, speculating upon possible traits and judgement are two different things, so I guess I don't.

6. It is more worthwhile and satisfying to improve the world or appreciate the world?
Appreciate the world. I already do it as I'm a bit hippyish at heart.

Because if there is improvement required in the world due to the negligence of humans, that means that my improvement once made would probably not be appreciated much. In fact it would most likely be destroyed. On the other hand, I'd like to think I contributed to the world in some way in my lifetime.
