Have you ever...?

[Shonisaurus]

No, unfortunately I don't rub shoulders with such important people.

Have you ever felt interested in pure sciences, specifically mathematics, even if it was not your job, career or study?

[Halichoeres]

Yes, math is magical and elegant.

Have you ever been hit by a car?

[bmathison1972]

I am not contributing to the game, merely pointing out @Halichoeres that math is the evil vile tool of the devil 

[Stegotyranno420]

Thankfully no.

Have you ever answered no to a question in this game and then have it happen to you a bit later?

[Lynx]

Thankfully no.

Have you ever answered no to a question in this game and then have it happen to you a bit later?

Yeah, the "have you ever been stung by a bee or wasp?" question. Got stung by one a while ago but it didn't hurt badly, likely due to the jacket I wore

Have you ever had a figure fall on top of you and/or cause injury?

[Stegotyranno420]

MAYBE as a little kid, but not as a slightly older kid.


Have you ever met someone you looked up to and they genuinely admired your skill in the hobby?

Ha ha, spoken like a true biologist.

Have you ever met someone you looked up to and they genuinely admired your skill in the hobby?

No, I don't think so. When I meet people the general vibe is mutual disdain.

Have you ever lost points on a school assignment because you included a swear?

[indohyus]

No, but I did enjoy talking about certain topics, like b#####d feudalism.

Have you ever sworn in front of a teacher?

[Stegotyranno420]

Even though I'm paranoid that I'm like the Helen Lovejoy of this forum, always making sure certain topics dont get talked about because of the children,  I cant deny I sworn a couple of times. Either it was for a word that isnt even a swear, like stupid or strange, or the teacher didnt care because she sworn herself.


Have you ever cooked sausage

[JPuggy]

Yes I have

Have you ever fired a firearm?

[Stegotyranno420]

I wish... they look so fun. But I do shoot cans with a BB gun if that counts


Have you ever eaten Pickled Chillies

[Newt]

With relish! Or as relish? Prepositions are tricky.


Have you ever lost a fingernail or toenail?

[Shonisaurus]

Yes, when I was a child I broke a nail when I was caught in a door and they had to rip it out, it was a severe pain, then it grew back without problems, albeit with another aspect, the consequence is that I caught my right thumb in a door when A cousin of mine closed it unintentionally, the pain I remember was terrible.

Have you ever been afraid of ghosts when you were a child?

[Duna]

Yes, I was for a while. My aunt died of breast cancer when my cousin and I were 7 and she came to live with us for the weekdays. One night she told me her (her mother's ghost) had been standing in the corner of the room, next to the curtains and told her not to be afraid. I got for a pair of weeks waking up at night and looking at that corner, a bit afraid.

Have you ever been gored by a cow or bull? I was by a free ranging cow in the mountain that saw me as a menace for her hidden resting baby (which I didn't saw). I was lucky to escape without any open wound (I got some bruises and a pain in my butt) because the horn got stuck in the jeans sewing when she lifted me up and I used my brute force to hold both horns and pull them back. Then I scared her back waving my hands. From that day on, I always carry a wooden stick when in the mountains.

[Stegotyranno420]

Not to me but pretty sure something like that happened to my father.

Have you ever shot a half court in basketball?

[Halichoeres]

I don't think so. I'm a better defender than shooter so if I were at half court I'd be passing.

Have you ever started to take off your mask but just ended up snapping the elastic really hard against your ear?

[Newt]

Yeah...


Have you ever rescued an animal that was tangled up in fishing line, netting, or other man-made stuff?

[Bread]

Yes, when I was about 12 years old, there was a juvenile Alligator (probably less than 2 feet long) in a pond inside of our neighborhood down in Florida. The Alligator seemed to have a fishing line trapped in its mouth. A group of adults, including my parents fished out the gator, I forget exactly how but I remember a large net being used. I just remember helping by spotting the fella and using a flashlight, it was an all night process.... And yes the fishing line was released and the animal was also released back into the water.

Have you ever been bitten by a snake? If so, was it poisonous or harmless?

[Halichoeres]

Yes, I've been gnawed on by a garter snake. It was more funny than painful.

Have you ever walked down the street after a snow-thaw-refreeze cycle and stomped all the brittle ice shelves that form along the sidewalk?

[indohyus]

Not that I can recall, but is likely when I was younger.

Have you ever looked at a place and thought "I remember when this was all fields"?
