The Saturday 6-Pack

1. What is your most precious family heirloom? (And I don't mean in monetary terms)

Nothing much, really. I've got a few things, like a pair of porcelain figurines.

Found the exact ones!

It's old Danish porcelain. Used to belong to my long dead grand parents on my mother's side. They're standing in my living room window these days.

2. How do you generally react to all those charity ads on TV?

I literally never watch TV.

3. In your opinion, what is the most ridiculous/useless item of clothing ever invented?

This always looked dumb to me. Like you suddenly had to flee from the bathroom stall before you could pull your pants up properly.

4. What would you consider your worst character trait?

If you don't know me, I can seem extremely reserved and unapproachable.
In reality, I'm just somewhat introverted and my resting face kind of says "piss off".

I do have bad character traits, but I'm not sure how aware of them I am.
My avoidance of personal conflict probably harms me more than it helps me.

5. What type of news story most upsets you?

Mass killings and various big political shifts in a more authoritarian direction.
Nationalism is on the rise in Europe... Can't end well if it doesn't turn around again.
All news about climate and pollution tend to be nightmarishly terrible news. We're ****ed.

6. Of those who have passed away, if it were possible, name up to three people related to you whom you would have back alive?

Can't possibly choose.

1. What is your most precious family heirloom? (And I don't mean in monetary terms)

My step-grandpa's engineering books from the early 1900's.

2. How do you generally react to all those charity ads on TV?

Depends on the charity. But usually, I think to myself: "How much money are they spending to film this commercial? Money that could have gone towards helping the cause."

3. In your opinion, what is the most ridiculous/useless item of clothing ever invented?

Anything that covers up womens' boobs.

4. What would you consider your worst character trait?

I over-think EVERYTHING.

5. What type of news story most upsets you?

Either ones that are full of lies, or ones where I see zionist Israel's IDF killing defenseless Palestinians.

6. Of those who have passed away, if it were possible, name up to three people related to you whom you would have back alive?

My sister and my uncle.

1. Have you ever lost a family heirloom?
Some my grandmothers jewelry is damaged thanks to me but I still have them.

2. What’s the most you ever gave to charity?
My life. I work in the nonprofit sector.

3. How many pairs of shoes do you have
I dunno like 10.

4. What would you consider your mother’s worst character trait?
She scratches her undereye with her fingernail and it freaks me the **** out every single time. Maybe that’s not a character trait but it’s so bad I’m counting it anyways.
5. Do you enjoy watching TV news more if the news anchors are attractive?
I prefer them old with angry eyebrows and/or mustaches.

6. If you could bring back the dead just so they would be stuck where they’re buried and would die there again this time buried alive, would you use this power?
No, that’s like my biggest fear and I dont hate anyone enough to consider it.

DwnWthVwls · 05-19-2018, 09:22 AM

1. Have you ever lost a family heirloom?

Nope.

I've donated here and there (maybe $20 at most?), but all the charity work I've done has been in the form of physical labor and item donations.. not cash.

3. How many pairs of shoes do you have

6? Not because I buy a lot of shoes, but because my oldest pair is from high school 14 years ago.

Her personality.

5. Do you enjoy watching TV news more if the news anchors are attractive?

Probably, I don't watch the news though.

6. If you could bring back the dead just so they would be stuck where they’re buried and would die there again this time buried alive, would you use this power?

No.

**Exo** · 05-19-2018, 09:49 AM

1. Have you ever lost a family heirloom?

Nah. I don't get much of those.

2. What’s the most you ever gave to charity?

Not sure but I've helped friends and family in rough times and I think that counts as a valid answer this question.

3. How many pairs of shoes do you have

Two everyday shoes, one pair of boots, one pair of sh*t shoes that I do dirty things with, one pair that I should really throw out.

4. What would you consider your mother’s worst character trait?

Unwillingly hides things and doesn't talk about issues that are obvious.

5. Do you enjoy watching TV news more if the news anchors are attractive?

I stopped watching the news. I always thought the news was biased long before it became popular to do so. I will occasionally watch NJ12 for weather updates though.

6. If you could bring back the dead just so they would be stuck where they’re buried and would die there again this time buried alive, would you use this power?

Seems petty.

**Frownland** · 05-19-2018, 09:56 AM

1. What is your most precious family heirloom? (And I don't mean in monetary terms)

My Applause (acoustic guitar, Ovation copycats) was a hand-me-down. That's about it. Might get some antique guns when my grandpa dies.

2. How do you generally react to all those charity ads on TV?

I don't pay attention, just like any other commercial.

3. In your opinion, what is the most ridiculous/useless item of clothing ever invented?

Headbands look silly

4. What would you consider your worst character trait?

Elitism

5. What type of news story most upsets you?

Music events massacres are really ****ed up.

6. Of those who have passed away, if it were possible, name up to three people related to you whom you would have back alive?

My grandfather on my mom's side because I mever met him. Related by marriage, but the guy my grandma remarried was a cool former junkie who died of cancer 15 years ago. A second cousin of mine passed away at 4 years old this year. I never met him but he should get a longer run.
