Survey
Erik is bored and boredom, naturally, produces surveys so that other bored individuals can relieve their boredom.
1. What is your full name and birthday?
2. Do you like chocolate? Explain.
3. Do you think the world presented in the book 1984 is possible?
4. In the fundemental progression of humanity as a species, do you think we're heading in a positive direction or are we regressing? Like, say we skip forward 200 years. Will society be better then, or will it be worse?
5. Would you rather spend your life watching a bonsai tree grow or watching water pour from a fountain?
6. Which is more destructive, fire or water?
7. Do you like disco?
8. Suppose, for a moment, that there was a massive right-wing conspiracy one night and suddenly all the food was turned into peanut butter. In fact, every manufactured product from that point on was peanut butter. Assume, for the sake of the question, it was all chunky. What would you do?
9. Would you rather burn for four trillion years in hell or spend eternity bored in heaven?
10. What would you name your child, assuming you had one?
11. What do you wish your name was, if it had to be something different then your current name?
12. Are you, or have you ever been, romantically involved with anybody besides yourself?
13. It is unlucky to have a question on the thirteenth.
14. Are you religious? If so, which religion do you affiliate yourself with? Why?
15. Suppose dying was optional. Kids played with real guns and fights regularly turned fatal. How do you think this would affect society?
16. Do you support using the death penalty? Why or why not?
That's all, folks!

1. What is your full name and birthday? Hannah Pritikin Savage and Dec 28, 1987
2. Do you like chocolate? Explain. Sometimes, I have to be in the mood for chocolate. Sometimes it's too sweet for me.
3. Do you think the world presented in the book 1984 is possible? Anything is possible, especially if it involves a corrupt government. I think it's unlikely though, at least any time recently, because it would take a lot of brainwashing to get people to go along with it.
4. In the fundemental progression of humanity as a species, do you think we're heading in a positive direction or are we regressing? Like, say we skip forward 200 years. Will society be better then, or will it be worse? Well, I can really only judge based on the US, I don't know enough about the rest of the world. So, as far as the people in the US are concerned, up until this recent election, I would have said we're progressing. Now however, I'm not sure. I'm tempted to say that the 60's was the best time in the US, because from the little I know about it, it sounds like basically people were free to be themselves. Of course, I don't know that much about the 60's, so I could be missing something. Since then, we've gone downhill.
5. Would you rather spend your life watching a bonsai tree grow or watching water pour from a fountain? Well, I love watching water, but I think the noise would drive me crazy after a while. Then again, the silence of the tree might drive me crazy. Since the tree will change though, however slowly, I think maybe the tree.
6. Which is more destructive, fire or water? Depends on the material. Fire can be very destructive, but it also allows some trees to sprout from their seeds. Water is necessary for life, but too much of it can kill. I think fire is probably more destructive though, but that may just be because I'm pyrophobic.
7. Do you like disco? Watching it, I find amusing, doing it no.
8. Suppose, for a moment, that there was a massive right-wing conspiracy one night and suddenly all the food was turned into peanut butter. In fact, every manufactured product from that point on was peanut butter. Assume, for the sake of the question, it was all chunky. What would you do? Chunky? I hate chunky peanut butter. Well, we'd all die from not getting the various vitamins and stuff we need, so I'd probably go out and do all the things I'd always wanted to do and say all the stuff I'd always wanted to say to people, then kill myself so I don't have to die slowly.
9. Would you rather burn for four trillion years in hell or spend eternity bored in heaven? Similiar to almost all of my other answers, it depends. What happens after that 4 trillion years? Is this heaven the Christian concept, where it's only perfect, morally pure, Christians with their god who's the same way? Cuz I think that would be closer to hell than burning for 4 trillian years.
10. What would you name your child, assuming you had one? Sarah if it's a girl, Nathan if it's a boy. I think I'll do the world a favor though and not reproduce. The world doesn't need my genes floating around in the gene pool.
11. What do you wish your name was, if it had to be something different then your current name? Something that people can pronounce would be nice. My parents considered naming me Sarah, and that would have been fine with me. Actually, I always come across names I really like, but whenever I try to think of them later, I can't.
12. Are you, or have you ever been, romantically involved with anybody besides yourself? No, and I'm not overly happy about it either.
13. It is unlucky to have a question on the thirteenth. Well, unless you repair a mirror or walk backwards under a ladder to erase the bad luck.
14. Are you religious? If so, which religion do you affiliate yourself with? Why? No, I have no problem with faith, but I think that religion is wrong. It makes people believe that they're superior to everyone else, and gives them a reason to kill anyone they don't like. If you're going to be prejudice against people, at least form your own prejudices instead of using the ones of a bunch of weird old men who write a bunch of stories in a book.
15. Suppose dying was optional. Kids played with real guns and fights regularly turned fatal. How do you think this would affect society? Well, I'm assuming people would still get old, so eventually they'd want to die. It may push the lifespan back, but people would eventually choose to die. Although it would have to change a lot of religion's views on suicide, since that would mean that basically every death would be because the person chose to die. Although, your next sentence makes it sound like death and violence can still kill people, so maybe not. As for the next part, it sounds like the whole world would turn into LA.
16. Do you support using the death penalty? Why or why not? No, it punishes the family and friends, not the victim. And it's probably actually a worse punishment to live in a jail, and with the knowledge that you killed someone. And killing the people makes us just as much of a murderer as they are. And sometimes it turns out that the courts are wrong.
