    Ah no. What's better than asking random people random questions?
    Maybe more imagination is needed.

    Do you get creeped out by clowns?

    Indeed, my boring question nearly killed it stone dead:P

    Clowns, no, never saw the appeal even when I was a kind, but don't find them creepy either.

    Have you thought you might have covid at any point in the pandemic?

    Yea alot of the symptoms are common. I had a really bad chest infection in January 2020 that seemed to go on forever too so I'm one of those that thinks they may have had it before but probably not.

    Have you been less sick this year in general as a result of lockdown?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 601 ✭✭✭Snails pace


    Yes, no cold or any sickness so far. Touch wood :)

    Are you cracking up under lock down ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20 nottalking2u

    No not at all. Just adapting.

    Are you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,104 ✭✭✭Trigger Happy


    I am fed up and bored at times and want my old life back. But not cracking up. Coping as best I can.

    If you had a choice , right now, between a trip to the hairdresser or a trip to the pub...which would you choose?

    Do you know your most thanked post on boards?


  • Posts: 3,689 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    That was for a post about 10 years ago when I was known as another handle. Today such post would be ignored by boardsies because it wouldn't be woke enough or what.

    What was your last post where you got at least one snarky response.

    I don’t know. I did comment on a tattoo post maybe 2 weeks ago, don’t think the response was too sarky or else I couldn’t care what they responded.

    Do you get into tit for tat exchanges with posters?

    Buddy Holly and the crickets. I found it at the Galway races. Wound it back up with a pen and had to wait until we got home to see if it would work.

    I think it will be broadly in line with last year, except perhaps sunnier

    Do you have a disposition? Positive, cynical, ambivalent etc.?

    Hello!! :D

    Positive and reflective mostly, a bit too introspective at times.

    What about you?

    Nihilistic and a determinist. I've always had a kind of allergic response to life itself.


    Do you think we can change our disposition though or is it just a bunch of wishful thinking? if so, have you ever voluntarily and fundamentally changed who you are?

    I think that's a big question. I think we can try to change our disposition and succeed but I'm not sure if that is the same as changing who we fundamentally are. For example if I wanted to be more easy going then that's something I could work on but my core remains.

    I don't believe your core self can change but it can be modified and if troublesome become bearable and accepted. Personally I have become less concerned with others opinions of me, have greater integrity, and am a small bit more relaxed. I'm still me though and I don't know how to articulate that I am. No matter the changes I still feel fundamentally me.

    How does it feel to have a nihilistic view?

    No. We need more prison space built for murderers and cannot afford anything more.
