Have you....?

[SOteric]

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
In the ignorance of my youth, yes.

2. Have you ever written a song?
My friend Lynn and I wrote a song together in the back of her father’s car on our way up to The Brothers for a camping trip. We were 13. The song was vapid in the extreme. After 4 hours, her father threatened to do us in so cleverly the bodies would never be found. Obviously, the world was not ready for such incredibly talent.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
No.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
No.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
People who cannot see the forest for the trees. People who ignore a brilliant, 3 page essay on the state of humanity to fixate and obsess on a typo in line 52. People who send love-letters back with the grammar and spelling corrected. People who rant for hours on one single flaw of their spouse, friend, child or parent in total disregard for how devastated they would be without this person in their life. People who frighten themselves over getting enough sleep while they chain smoke, drink like a fish and eat a diet of uninterrupted fats and salts until such time as their arteries slam shut. People who worry themselves about the abstract ‘maybe’ of a possibility of a war with Iraq while completely oblivious to the state of economic and social collapse in the country they purport to run.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
… … … Yes.


Okay, - your turn!

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
Does the pope shit in the vatican?

2. Have you ever written a song?
Yes, I have written commercial jingles, even one that was used in a radio ad for a small now defunct company. I write instrumental tunes now and do arrangements as well.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?

Yes, several dollars worth. If you try to panhandle me, I'll have to slap you but if you really need it you can have it. :D

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?

Yes, at a major sporting even too...the women's restroom was full and the Kings were in the playoffs and I wanted to get back to my seat so a couple male hockey fans watched the door while my girlfriends and I used their restroom.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?

Probably but I don't really think about that stuff as I'm trying not to be attached to things that piss me off.


6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
Yes

[SOteric]

5. You've written commercial jingles?!

Good Lord, woman! Is there nothing you cannot do? ;-)

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

19. My friends call me Renaissance Girl

The funny thing is I CAN'T DO ART..can't draw a straight line or keep my pencil on the paper, and while I can carry a tune..my singing voice sucks.

I really don't have can't be a part of my vocabulary as a rule, although lately I find it in there more than I would like it to be.

Oh yeah, and I can't argue the rule of perpetuities, but then again neither can anyone else I know. :D

[Kenneth ken]

4. yes. and in the opposite sex's locker room.

[SOteric]

26. Gotta hate those loud noises.

Luckily, our city recently passed a noise ordinance. *sigh*

[oneighty]

3. Bell bottoms.

Darn right.. Gaberdine taylor made dress blues. Large bells tight butt, thirteen button fly, silk lined down to the tops of the knees. Jumper silk lined skin tight with side zipper to get it on and off, folded back wrist cuffs revealing dragons embroided in silk. Yup the real things. US Navy long ago.

[Droopy]

6. My answers

1. I did wear bell bottoms one time for a halloween outfit.

2. I used to write poetry all the time. I've also written one intrumental song for guitar. I never learned to play well, though.

3. No change for a dollar.

4. I accidentally walked into the womens room before. I guess I just wasn't paying attention to where I was going. I didn't embarass anybody except myself.

5. Inconsiderate people are my number one pet peeve.

6. I've never been skinny dipping.

[Ramsey]

7. Good poll!

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
Nope. Too young I guess, missed that trend.

2. Have you ever written a song?
Yes, in fact my hubby and I are producing a whole album of orginal songs right now!

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
Yes, in pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters or Susan B Anthony dollars :-).

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
Yes, indeed, many times, whenever the line was just too freaking long at the ladies room and the gents were willing to accomodate a lady. This situation usually occurs at large concerts or other outdoors sporting events.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
Mine is less intellectual. Number one pet-peeve: Hypocrisy. Number 2: People who do not use their turn signal. And as a corrolary, people who do not clean up after themselves.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
Oh yes, many a lovely evening :evilgrin:

[SOteric]

10. Wow! Let us know when you album is available!

I'm sure there are a few around here who'll be interested!

[youngred]

14. LOL

PS my Susan B coin is at home not here...so I have that too :-)

[blondeatlast]

15. I'm in . . .

1. Yep, I was in the single digits in the sixties; I have a legit excuse.

2. I think so, I think it was for (gaak!) Donny Osmond!

3. Nope.

4. Yep, frequently, when my son decided to start going to the little boys' room. I'd always get a clerk to "watch my back," as it were.

5. People who don't wash their hands after using the restroom--barf!

6. Nope, but I have sunbathed in the nude.

[SOteric]

20. Yes,

I too was in my single digits in the 60's and early 70's... But I was born and raised near Haight-Ashbury, so avoiding an acquaintance with bell-bottoms and hip-huggers wasn't actually an option.

[FlashHarry]

24. Here we go...

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
Tuffskins. 1976.

2. Have you ever written a song?
Got my quarterly BMI check today, actually.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?

Neoconservatives.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping

[moof]

25. ok

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
These jokes about J-lo's butt are getting old.

2. Have you ever written a song?
A few, but the one about California falling into the Ocean & using the the Golden Gate Bridge to cross the Mariannas Trench is the best.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
moof can always change a dollar into thin air, anytime, anywhere.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
moof received assureances that the records about this incident would remain sealed.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
WOW! they sell immortal peeves now!! The pet shop said our peeve would have about the same lifespan as henway.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
Does nude skydiving count ? Seriously though if it involves no clothes you can pretty much always count moof in ...

Is there a prize for answering these correctly ?

[SOteric]

29. Yes, there is a prize.

Lady Freedom will don a skimpy French Maid's outfit and spank you.

[PittPoliSci]

27. list of magnitude

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?

unfortunately, sorta. they were just really wide-legged pants that sorta resembled bell bottoms.

2. Have you ever written a song?
Quite a few, they're usually inane songs about my friends being jackasses. just fun stuff. once i wrote a song for my girlfriend, that was a nice one, or so i thought.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
actually, yes.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
i find myself in there much more often then i should be.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
people that don't use their fucking turn signals...THAT'S WHY THEY ARE THERE!!! people that try to say that the misfits and the damned rip off AFI. that one just started happening recently, but it really gets on my fucking nerves.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
oh yeah.

[populistmom]

31. SOme I have

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
yes

2. Have you ever written a song?
yes, but they resembled more ranting poems when I was 17

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
yes


4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
yes, but it was to help my son (who was 3 at the time) at an elementary school boy's bathroom.


5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
Not really, the things that annoy me change over time I think.


6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
No, unfortunately.

Sarah

[SOteric]

33. There may yet

be a skinny-dipping in your future. :7

[populistmom]

35. Let's hope so. nt

:evilfrown:

[demgurl]

34. Here are my answers.....

1. No, I have not!

2. Yes, I have written several songs but I have never tried to have them published. I think they were pretty good though.

3. I have tons of change. I think I could give you at least $20 in change.

4. I have been in the men's bathroom several times. Once was in high school when someone dared me. Then there were times at bars or concerts when the ladie's room has been full and when nature calls....

5. I hate when the person, in the car in front of me, is smoking and has their hand hanging out the window. I am allergic to cigarette smoke and I do not think smokers realize that all of their smoke comes billowing into the car behind them. It is ok on a decent day when I just turn off my a/c and sit there until I can get away from the car in fornt of me. On a hot day, I have to sit in a sweltering car and sweat until the problem goes away. If I do not turn off the a/c, my nasal passages start to close up and I find it very hard to breathe.

6. No, that is one of the few things I have not done. The chance never really presented itself!

Christina

[SOteric]

37. There's always time

for number 6. Maybe one day.... :7

[TXlib]

36. My turn

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?

Nope. But in the 70s, I wore corderoy pants that made that "voop-voop" sound when you walked.

2. Have you ever written a song?

Yes. It's a parody of a C&W song, titled, "One Beer Away From Lovin' You".

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?

I don't carry change. Ever.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?

Yes.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?

Yes, far too many to rant about now. I'm an angry, angry man.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?

Yes. Wanna join me? ;)

[SOteric]

38. Are you going to

"Yes. Wanna join me? ;)"

expound on the nature of time?

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

39. Yeah, the amount of time it takes for KCDem to kick

his ass sideways?

lol

[TXlib]

47. That was a generic

"Wanna join me", not aimed at anybody in particular.

KCDem and I had pool parties when we were grad students in which everybody got naked, and all took showers together afterwards.

Oh, and by the way:
Times flies. Want me to expound some more?

[SOteric]

59. Are you worried

I might throw myself at you?

[TXlib]

61. It's happened before.

Women can't resist me.

Men envy me.

Household pets worship me.

Oh, and E = m * c ** 2, baby!

[Kat45]

40. I'll bite -- my answers....

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
Oh yeah. I was in high school in the early seventies.

2. Have you ever written a song?
When my friends were going to start a punk rock band just for the heck of it, I wrote a couple of songs for them. Actually, just the lyrics, politically-oriented. The songs were called "Nuclear Enema" and "Glory Hole." They never ended up doing the band.


3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
I think so.


4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
Yup.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
Many, but the one that tops the list is inconsiderate people.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
No, because I can't swim. If I could swim, I probably would have.

[SOteric]

41. Heh. I can't swim either, and it hasn't stopped me.

:7

[Loyal]

42. Okay, I'll do it

1) Nope, wayy too young.

2) You bet. It was a crappy one though. :)

3) I have like a bank in my room, lol.

4) Many times. Usually in high school as a dare.

5) Intolerance

6) Twice. Brrrrr it was cold. :P

[SOteric]

43. Crappy songs are the

standard. You get special points if you wrote anything that failed to suck.

[Loyal]

44. No points for me

I agree with the skinny dipping in the lounge guild suggestion, however. :D

[mitchum]

45. yes to all six

[RetroLounge]

46. Have I?

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?

Well, yes, And Quiana(sp?) shirts with nasty big prints on them. Those shiny poly ones. I went to HS in the mid 70's after all. But by the end of HS, 1979, I was a long hair rocker-looking guy who wore AC/DC and Scorpions t-shirts with flannel shirts and grey cords or jeans, but was thankfully saved by The Ramones and Elvis Costello my Senior year.

2. Have you ever written a song?

Yes, I used to play guitar in bands in Chicago and Milwaukee in the 80's and early 90's, and penned an occasional song. Usually after a nasty break-up.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?

Nope. 26 cents in my pocket, and a halls cough drop.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?

Yes, in some Chicago bars I hung out in in the 80's, (NEO, Metro, The Exit) that's where the drugs were sold and ingested.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?

Easy. Republicans.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?

Oh yeah. Streaking too.

[SOteric]

53. But, -

is there lint on the cough drop?

[RetroLounge]

62. Nope, still in wrapper

it's just a bit warm, you know, being in my pocket.

[Booberdawg]

48. Okay, here's mine

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
Yes – it was cool at the time. Elephant bells too

2. Have you ever written a song?
I have absolutely NO artistic talent WHATSOEVER

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
Always

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
Yes, both intentionally and by accident. The time by accident as I was at the mirror combing my hair, there was a man at the stork – so horrified was he that he literally gasped some non-coherent guttural noises and escaped into a nearby stall. I apologized and left immediately.

I was teaching a programming class and computer concepts courses there at the time. Fortunately (for him) I had never seen him before and never bumped in to him again.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
Checkout clerks who visit with their friends in line while other customers are waiting. People who wait until the very last grocery item is checked before they take out their check book and start writing out the check. People who come to a complete stop when they have the right of way to turn a corner. People who stop in the middle of the street to chat when there are cars behind waiting. People who get impatient with special citizens who might be a little slower but bust their chops working at fast food jobs, sacking groceries, etc. – these people try HARDER than most people of average intelligence do and deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. People who make no attempt to empathize with others – not agree – just try to empathize. People who think they have to have an opinion about everything, regardless of whether they know anything about the subject or not.

See some anal-retentive tendencies in there? :D

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
No

[SOteric]

54. We are gonna

have to find you a skinny-dipping partner to loosen up some of those pet peeves. ;-)

[Booberdawg]

58. LOL!

Programmers are anal. It's an occupational hazard.

As far as skinny dipping - boy, not saying I never would - never been confronted with the opportunity really, but that would definitely be out of character for this stuffy ole stick in the mud

[Seneca]

49. well, why not?

1. Yes. In 1976 I believe.

2. Yes.

3. No.

4. Yes.

5. No. My peeves will die when I do. :-)

6. Yes.

[SOteric]

55. Your peeves

will die when you do....because "Hatred proclaimed doth lose it's chance of wreaking vengeance...?"

[ronzo]

50. hey, cool...

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
yes, but not in many, many years.

2. Have you ever written a song?
yeah. several.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
within reach, yes.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
many times.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
yes, assholes who can't work a turn signal.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
oh yeah.

Fun questionnaire. :)

[SOteric]

56. That turnsignal peeve

seems to be the most prevalent.

[Solly Mack]

51. hmmmmm

1- No
2-No
3- Yes
4-Yes
5-Yes..but I won't bore myself with the list. I know it already
6- Yes

[HEyHEY]

52. HEyHEY's

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
NopE!

2. Have you ever written a song?
My friend and I wrote one in first year college about how shitty the town we lived in was.
"Went down to dooly's, dropped 60 bucks...woke up with a headache...WOODSTOCK SUCKS!" "Torture to our ears, we'll be here two more years..try to drown our sorrows, but they water down our beers!"
That's all I remember.
3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
Yup
4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
Yeah...I was real wasted and walked in...looked around, thought to myself 'man there's a lot of stalls here' then I heard two women comingin and realized the score..hid in a stall for 15 minutes waitng for an escape moment.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
Line-ups, and people who drink shitty beer. MOre but that's it for now
6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
… … … Yes. - I grew up with a pool

[SOteric]

57. Watered down beers...

the horror!

[HEyHEY]

60. oh it was!

Some didn't come back

[dreissig]

63. Unisex Bathroom

The unisex bathroom at the LGB center on 13th Street in Greenwich Village does not have urinals.

[ForrestGump]

64. Six questions? Isn't it usually 20?

:P

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?

Yes. I had no choice. It was all they sold then, in my kidhood. I never liked them.

2. Have you ever written a song?

Yep! Not that it's been recorded, or anything.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?

In terms of my overall fiscal reserves, yeah (barely). On me, though, nope - very rarely carry change or any cash at all.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?

Yes. Among other places.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?

Apparently yours and just about everyone else's, though I am more peeved by headlights on high-beam at night than by the turn-signal thing.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?

Yes. It was even captured on film. :D

[SOteric]

66. I just KNOW you're gonna

upload that film of you skinny-dipping to a website...

[VOX]

65. Excellent post, SOteric...

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?
I would like to respond in the negative, but I regret that I have indeed, in a much younger incarnation. I blunt the sting of this admission by saying that I preferred to call them "flares." To my credit, I went back to straight-legs long before the crowd did.

2. Have you ever written a song?
Not formally, no. I have played in a band (without flares), and know my strengths. And weaknesses.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?
Not on me, but I do in the house, yes.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?
Yes, in my office the guy's head was once on the fritz, so the ladies kindly allowed me access to their litter box. It felt like a kind of honor.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?
I fear this one somewhat, as I think it may have something to do with fomenting physical illnesses in the "peever." But, yes, I am quite bothered by astonishing displays of ignorance and insensitivity. Also, people who specialize in habitually using what I refer to as "the boast in the form of a complaint" -- such as "Gee, my **** is so sore from all the sex I've been having," or "My BMW costs a lot to to repair." Rather superficial examples, but you get the point.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?
Yes, in the surf and in man-made bodies of H2O. It is bliss. I have been drawn to water my entire life and am a strong swimmer.

[SOteric]

67. Thank you, rezmutt

I'm sure your fashion forward dash through your 'flares' period was impressive.

;-) Skinny-dipping is an incredible pleasure, isn't it?

[GOPisEvil]

68. Me, me!

1. Yes - gack, the '70s sucked for fashion! It's my mom's fault though. She bought it all!
2. Sure, but it is more correct to say that I have modified the lyrics to existing songs.
3. Yes, in my desk drawer I keep a bit of change for those vending machine runs.
4. Yes. Ladies rooms are nice! (Oh, it was after hours in a retail store I was working at as a stocker. I had to go and the men's room was taken.)
5. People unaware or ignorant of their surroundings.
6. Nope. :-(

[SOteric]

69. I have to agree

ladies rooms are usually quite nice.

And for you, I just know there's a romantic skinny-dip in your future. ;-)

[GOPisEvil]

70. I've just the place for that skinny-dip too.

:-)

[XNASA]

71. Yes to all.

Been there and done all that.

[rbnyc]

72. Hello.

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?

No.

2. Have you ever written a song?

I've written about 150 songs.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?

Yes.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?

Yes.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?

I have about a million of them. The first one I can think of is people who pronounce the T in often, also people who say should of instead os should have. Ooh! And I hate it when people say Frankenstien when they mean Frankenstein's monster!

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?

Yep!

[SOteric]

4. Just a few weeks ago at a wedding reception. No line.
5. Stupid/unskilled drivers.
6. Yes. More than once.

[SOteric]

82. Plaid, doubleknit polyester bells...?

All at once?

What was the hipness factor on that?!

[jmm]

75. Here goes...

1. Have you ever worn bell-bottoms?

No :D

2. Have you ever written a song?

Do song parodies count? I use to write those alot.

3. Have you got change for a dollar right now?

I've probably got enough spare change to cash a fifty. I've got a glass nilk jar full of change on my desk plus what feels like a few pounds weighing down my purse. I really need to claen my purse, but I digress.

4. Have you ever been in the opposite sex's bathroom?

A couple of time. Once when I was about 7 and there was a long line for the women's room and the other in college because I wanted to see if the men's bathroom and showers were as bad as everyone said. The bathroom was filthy but the showers were cleaner than the women's.

5. Have you got a permanent pet peeve?

People who chew with their mouthes open. People who obsessively whine about their jobs but never bother to look for another one. People who dress their young daughters in clothes with words on their behinds such as "sweet buns" and "cute." Lazy co-workers who play stupid and foolishly mistake my kindness for weakness. Men who have to let you know they have money when their hitting on you. To paraphrase some thing a guy said to me last week "Maybe some time (flashes watch), after Wed. when I get paid, I could pick you up in my new car, and take you to dinner in the North End near my condo which I own?" People who will stubbornly defend something yet they have to evidence to back it up. Recently someone insisted to me that Fox news was fair and blanced just because she liked it :eyes:.

6. Have you ever gone skinny-dipping?

Never

83. Yep, yep....Parodies count

And absolutely that dude who was blowing air about his income would not have gotten a date.

[GumboYaYa]

76. Okay

1. Yes, most frequently on last Saturday.

2. All the time. Now I write them with my seven year old. She is in her second year of piano. We sit at the piano and make up songs for hours at a time. I love my little girl more than I imagined possible.

3. Well over change for a dollar. It accumulates in my work drawer until the afore-mentioned daughter comes in and cleans me out.

4. Yes.

5. Not really. I'm about as laid back as they come.

6. Yes.

[SOteric]

84. Laid back is a good thing.

We could all afford to accomplish a little Zen-Mastery over our 'laidback.'

[amazona]

77. hmmm...

1. Of course. They're called "bootcut jeans" now, aren't they?
2. Not a song but a piece of piano music when I was a kid. I've lost it long ago.
3. Sure, I've got your change for a dollar in both U.S. and Panama currencies -- Panama uses our dollar bills but prints their own coins.
4. As a woman, the answer can only be yes, as there are times when one cannot wait for the line outside the ladies' room, and the men's room is empty, so you get someone to watch out, and you use the men's room as well, and everything goes much faster.
5. My pet peeve is people who don't know the difference between "It's" and "Its" which is apparently everyone under age 40 and a fairly large number over that age.
6. Yes.

85. It's/Its is a popular peeve.

Personally I'm focused on the number of folks who don't realise the word is spelt 'definitely.'
