Brainstorming questions for a "why would I answer that" quiz, for no reason at all, and one I don't intend to take myself:

If you found out you had exactly forty more years to live, what would you do?

Without thinking about it for more than ten seconds, what is the work of art in any medium whatever that impressed you most?

Of the opinions you disagree with, which do you disconcertingly find yourself sympathizing with or otherwise drawn to against your own better judgement?

How have you most changed from five years ago? From ten?

What do people never seem to get about you despite how obvious it seems to you?

What argument, looking back, do you most suspect you lost or deserved to lose?

How or like whom do you most fear you'll end up?

What issue do you suffer most from being unable to resolve your thoughts about?

I guess it amounts to designing the least appealing meme (of those not obviously being designed to not appeal). But of course no meme appeals anymore. I wonder what changed, and if it's related to that general disillusionment with blogs that seems to have set in over time, that shying away from the notion that the day to day thoughts of one human might be the key to the door the world isn't.

1. Celebrate! Not look at a calendar.

2. Dante.

3. Libertarianism

4. Less confident. Guiltier.

5. Irony.

6. Stupidity of my less adventurous teachers.

7. My father.

8. God.


I love that notion -- that a human might be the key to the door (to the place [?] the world isn't).

One word answers are a good response to a why would I answer that quiz. In and out, all social responsibilities met. Memebold but not too memebold.

Sympathy for libertarianism on issues where it overlaps with liberalism, or something deeper?

The more theory-leery professors of the '70s and '80s, you mean? Or something more general?

I meant some 2 a.m. version of "If I only had the key I could open the door if I only had the door." Which probably just amounts to "to the place," yeah.
