Ask Countesss

[Miss Friendship]

/me is utterly offended.

That was the point.

Why did you choose those three?

So. I'm giving this from the perspective of an online person distantly knowing another online person, so I may not be completely accurate in my descriptions.

T.S. is very levelheaded and sensible. One of his admiring qualities is that he is smart without being a know-it-all-in-your-face. Tiger has her quirks, but she's responsible and dependable, and stable. (Or so I think)

Ox (is mature for his age, I might add ) He's mature in the aspect that he's got a lot of self-control and is wise about what he can and cannot do, even if fame and fortune is around the corner.

I'm not on your "most mature" list?! I'm TOTALLY more mature than Ox!!

(Actually I was shocked to realize how mature Ox is for his age. But I couldn't deny the facts )

Who's your 5 favorite people on SS?

Eleventh, Ox, Helios, Dom and Mandy.

Do you see yourself wanting to be in charge of SS someday?

Yeah, I'm here to dethrone Belle. That's been my whole plan all along.

In seriousness though, I'd probably enjoy moderating, but I'm not sure if I'd have the skill to be an admin or anything like Belle.

What's your favorite daily activity?

Checking my email. Except I do that more than once a day?

[Doll]

In seriousness though, I'd probably enjoy moderating, but I'm not sure if I'd have the skill to be an admin or anything like Belle.

No one will ever be able to fill my shoes. I have super small feet and everyone else's feet would be too big.

Plus no one can be anything like me.

Anywho, do you prefer the color orange or the color yellow?

[Mandy]

Eleventh, Ox, Helios, Dom and Mandy

Is there a reason I am the last on your list?

[Miss Friendship]

Eleventh, Ox, Helios, Dom and Mandy

Is there a reason I am the last on your list?

Okay, don't be ridiculous. I was going to leave you out all together because you belong in a different sphere than just "SS friends" but I couldn't choose between four and five other people, soooo... oh wait, Black Ghost is number five. There. You can reign supreme.

Anywho, do you prefer the color orange or the color yellow?

Orange. Yellow is

[Dom]

Cultures beliefs as in little things that the culture has adopted that aren't necessarily scriptural beliefs.

Oh geez, when you said "reconsidering all her cultures beliefs" I thought you meant something serious.

Fine. I'll give this a shot so then I can become the brunt of your torture after I'm WRONG.
You believe a woman should be able to choose murder or life because it's her baby.

First off, that belief system is about it being "her body", not her baby. Secondly, after ALL THIS TIME...you prove you know nothing about me.

Jesus says divorce is never okay unless the spouse is living in constant adultery and fornication

Constant? So it's okay if he has a fling with his secretary every New Year's Eve, so long as it's not CONSTANT like rabbits?

What would you do if you and your husband disagreed on how to discipline your children, and you were ALREADY married and the kids were already popping out?

I would OBEY him, and TRUST God to work out the details.

So if he was into using his belt until they had bruises or locking them in a closet for the night, you would obey and trust.

How old do your siblings have to be to drink coffee?

Okay, so this is really frustrating. I had to wait till I was FIFTEEN EXACTLY. But now, everyone can have coffee whenever they please and my two year old little sister has it all the time. #firstbornproblems

I get why you have issues with THAT commandment now. Your parents sound... Um. There's not a nice way to put this so I'll just smile and nod and walk away in disgust.

I'm still confused. I think I said that was another "option" rather than a divorce. Neither are desired in a marriage.

You said it as if you would prefer it over divorce.

the worst about being a female for me is that my opinions or suggestions don't have as much weight as a man's.

Who the heck told you that? Sounds like you gobbled it up and are sexist against your own gender.

I really like how my set makes it look like a girl is idly standing by while a person drowns. It says exactly what I want.

If I had that as my set I'm betting the mods would be on me in two seconds flat telling me it was inappropriate. Anyway, I still think it's morbid and attention-grabbing; if you're depressed, just say so.

So you usually turn off weird shows, but a show where everyone is constantly drowning doesn't qualify? Do you buy people birthday cards? What is the most expensive article of clothing you own? Can you/do you wear high heels? Have you ever broken the law? Did you have a comfort item when you were little, like a stuffed animal or blanket? Do you or your family have BELIEFS on binkies? Do you think pranksters are hysterical or obnoxious? Are you into watching any sports? Do you collect anything?

[Miss Friendship]

Oh geez, when you said "reconsidering all her cultures beliefs" I thought you meant something serious.

Like, gasp, doubting God's existence? Nope. I don't go back on my allegiance once it's made.

First off, that belief system is about it being "her body", not her baby.

So it's not her baby? Well for you, this is a valid belief. But for those who claim to be Christians, it sickens me when they use this example as it's "my body." REALLY? I thought your body was Gods? I thought you knew your God hates the killing of the innocent?

Constant? So it's okay if he has a fling with his secretary every New Year's Eve, so long as it's not CONSTANT like rabbits?

No that's not okay. But if it happened once, and he sincerely repented, there is no reason why the marriage is suddenly a wrong thing. He must repent even if he "looks at anther woman with lust." Christ set high standards of purity and fidelity for marriage.

I get why you have issues with THAT commandment now. Your parents sound... Um. There's not a nice way to put this so I'll just smile and nod and walk away in disgust.

My parents are very kind people, which is why they graciously allowed the youngers to have coffee, it is my unforgiving problem if I have resentment toward that. BTW, no matter how horrid parents might be (which mine certainly are not) you should always be grateful to them and not bitter, if nothing else they did for you, they gave you life. Slamming parents is about the lowest form of unkindness one can stoop to. One of which I am guilty, but I intend to do better on this.

Who the heck told you that? Sounds like you gobbled it up and are sexist against your own gender.

Eh, my own personal experience. No one told me anything.

If I had that as my set I'm betting the mods would be on me in two seconds flat telling me it was inappropriate.

Try it then.

Anyway, I still think it's morbid and attention-grabbing; if you're depressed, just say so

I like morbid and attention-grabbing things. And no, I'm not depressed.

So you usually turn off weird shows, but a show where everyone is constantly drowning doesn't qualify?

I thought you knew that show was a joke?

Do you buy people birthday cards?

Only my closest friends. And I haven't even them, in a while.

What is the most expensive article of clothing you own?

That would have been the coat I bought at the mall for $25 on sale, except Mom took it back. I make my own dresses, and generally buy my other clothes at thrift stores and Goodwills. And before you assume I'm wearing some trashy things, let me assure you that you can get some nice things at thrift stores.

Can you/do you wear high heels?

I've always hated high heels for as long as I can remember. Particularly because my mom's shoes, which had heels, I thought looked ridiculously hard to manage, plus so out of style. Thus, I've never brought up the subject, so I have no idea if I could wear them. I, however, do enjoy putting on the tallest I can find if I am in a store which allows me to do so, and tramping down the isle to see how tall I can make myself.

Have you ever broken the law?

I've driven over the speed limit, yes. Arrest me.

Did you have a comfort item when you were little, like a stuffed animal or blanket?

If I did, I don't remember what particuarly. However, blankets have always been a great source of comfort to me when trying to hide away from all the pressures of this world, soooo, maybe that counts. However, being the oldest, I can well remember many nights trying to search for my younger brother or sisters "comfort item" to cease their wailing and wondering why on earth it mattered.

Do you or your family have BELIEFS on binkies?

My baby sister has one. In seriousness though, if I step out of my room with a t-shirt and pants on, I shock all the females in the family and am forbidden to appear before my brother or father, so conclude from that what you will. However, I can think of no earthly reason, why someone would want to appear naked before other people. (Except for sexual reasons of course)

Do you think pranksters are hysterical or obnoxious?

Totally depends on what pranks are played. But I naturally seem to gravitate toward pranksters, being one myself.

Are you into watching any sports?

I enjoy watching them occasionally. But normally it makes me feel lazy watching hardworking athletes running around, when I tire after walking a mile. They are kind of interesting, but normally I find them rather boring.

Do you collect anything?

I collected Postcards for awhile, until we stopped going on trips, and I had bought every option I liked at Walmart.

[Tea Ess]

I suppose we could adopt just Ox, and you could stay with Wakko as your father..? It gets complicated.

That sounds best. Especially since I get along with my father, and there's no telling how I would get along with my stepmother.

Ox does need parents, and looking after.

Do you have any suggestions for raising Ox? =p

There are generally three basic rules you can always stand by. 1. Never get offended by anything he says. (This will save you a lot of grief) 2. He feels special if you laugh at his jokes. 3. You can calm or curb off any temper tantrums by keeping him supplied with sheet music and a piano.

[Dom]

I don't go back on my allegiance once it's made.

This is how there are so many Christians. They feel it is their life purpose to be faithful, despite logic and fact staring them in the face. heh

So it's not her baby?

You missed the entire point, and the important part, of my paragraph. And yes, it's her baby. I was merely pointing out that you got the verbiage wrong. The popular phrase is, "It's my body." Not "It's my baby."

Well for you, this is a valid belief.

Again, you missed the ENTIRE point. It is not my belief.

He must repent even if he "looks at anther woman with lust."

*snort* If they were Catholic they'd never leave the confessional.

My parents are very kind people, which is why they graciously allowed the youngers to have coffee

Kindness has nothing to do with changing your beliefs and rules as more kids pop out. Please don't be that naive. Kindness also has NOTHING to do with letting a two year old drink coffee. That is called bad parenting, among other things.

BTW, no matter how horrid parents might be (which mine certainly are not) you should always be grateful to them and not bitter, if nothing else they did for you, they gave you life.

You really make me laugh sometimes. Just because two people, um, HAVE A FLING, doesn't mean you should be grateful to them for anything. Good grief. Also, what makes you think I wanted my life to happen?

Slamming parents is about the lowest form of unkindness one can stoop to.

Respect is earned. If parents deserve to be slammed, they will be slammed. There are horrible parents just like there are dirty cops, corrupted judges, and evil presidents. Fact of life. I don't care what position of power you're in, you only get my respect if you deserve it. And if you're about to retort with the scripture about respecting who God has placed over us, don't. God doesn't elect those people, citizens do. And if you say God is in control anyway, then he put Hitler in power and the Holocaust is God's fault.

If I had that as my set I'm betting the mods would be on me in two seconds flat telling me it was inappropriate.

Try it then.

Don't need to try, I was already talked to for my word usage, you responded to the soap-scrubbed version of my post.

before you assume I'm wearing some trashy things, let me assure you that you can get some nice things at thrift stores.

Before you assume I've never shopped at a thrift store, maybe you shouldn't assume.

Do you or your family have BELIEFS on binkies?

My baby sister has one. In seriousness though, if I step out of my room with a t-shirt and pants on, I shock all the females in the family and am forbidden to appear before my brother or father, so conclude from that what you will. However, I can think of no earthly reason, why someone would want to appear naked before other people. (Except for sexual reasons of course)

=| ...What on earth do binkies and nakedness have to do with each other?

Do you think your religion/parents/worldview is a guilt-ridden one? Would you like it if we went back to a time where each person carried around their own eating utensils so no get-togethers ever resulted in tons of dishes? When is your favorite time of day? Do your parents trust you? Should they? How close are your nearest neighbors? When was the last time you felt unsafe? Are you still sick?

Dom

[Miss Friendship]

This is how there are so many Christians.

Some Christians. Unfortunately too many are just a Christian because they were "born" that way, or because one day they said a prayer, and they aren't actually living the life Jesus taught.

They feel it is their life purpose to be faithful, despite logic and fact staring them in the face. heh

They KNOW it's their life purpose to be faithful, based on the logic and facts staring them in the face. Also, there's this thing called faith.

It is not my belief.

:shock: So, what is your belief?

*snort* If they were Catholic they'd never leave the confessional.

No one is claiming the Christian life is easy.

Kindness also has NOTHING to do with letting a two year old drink coffee. That is called bad parenting, among other things.

Well I WAS THE ONE who gives her coffee all the time. They probably would prefer not, but they allow it.

You really make me laugh sometimes. Just because two people, um, HAVE A FLING, doesn't mean you should be grateful to them for anything. Good grief. Also, what makes you think I wanted my life to happen?

Yes, yes, yes, you can complain about everything, even your very existence, if you wish. But I know there are sometimes in life when you are very glad to be alive, don't deny it.

And if you're about to retort with the scripture about respecting who God has placed over us, don't. God doesn't elect those people, citizens do. And if you say God is in control anyway, then he put Hitler in power and the Holocaust is God's fault.

I wouldn't have said that. I know better than to mention the One Who You Hate But Don't Cause He Doesn't Exist into this.

you responded to the soap-scrubbed version of my post.

That's one way to put it.

Do you think your religion/parents/worldview is a guilt-ridden one?

Yes and no. There is guilt if there is sin. There is freedom when there is victory.

Would you like it if we went back to a time where each person carried around their own eating utensils so no get-togethers ever resulted in tons of dishes?

I didn't know such a time existed. And no. I dislike carrying things around.

When is your favorite time of day?

Evening

Do your parents trust you? Should they?

In a lot of areas, yes. No, I'm pretty reckless.

How close are your nearest neighbors?

Ummm, several hundred feet away?

When was the last time you felt unsafe?

Last night, at 3 am.

Are you still sick?

Yes. Apparently I got a cough, cold and slight fever with a lot of side effects that lasts for a month if not longer.

Helios creates drama? O____o

What do you think Helios' reaction will be when she sees all of this? Will she be flattered or annoyed?

Why do you talk with ED so much?

Are electric candles in windows pagan?

[Bethany Shepard]

What are you most aware/sensitive of when around people? Physical, speech, etc.

[Miss Friendship]

Helios creates drama? O____o

With my help.

What do you think Helios' reaction will be when she sees all of this? Will she be flattered or annoyed?

Secretly flattered, outwardly annoyed, and she will scorn all of us with her derision, and yet somehow miraculously end up charming us so that we realize this was the best thing we ever did.

Why do you talk with ED so much?

I might as well ask that question of you? Talking everyday isn't very much....

Are electric candles in windows pagan?

Only if they are supposed to be.

What are you most aware/sensitive of when around people? Physical, speech, etc.

Of myself? Or them? Of myself... umm probably talking. I've worked hard to become a good communicator and I don't like to have that mess up somehow. Actually normally my sarcasm helps me talk to strangers.

[Bethany Shepard]

TOTALLY get that! Sarcasm is beautiful.

Would you rather write a 10 page paper about your life, or a 5 page paper about something you hate?

What's your favorite kid show?

What's your favorite subject in school?

[Miss Friendship]

Would you rather write a 10 page paper about your life, or a 5 page paper about something you hate?

5 page about something I hate. I am easily inspired when I am passionate about something. My life is rather boring.

What's your favorite kid show?

Little House count? Otherwise, don't believe I've seen any.

What's your favorite subject in school?

English, reading, grammar... all that.

[Tea Ess]

My family used to watch Little House every Sunday night. We made it several seasons, but we decided to switch after Mrs. Ingalls carved the infected scratch out of her leg.

Do you remember a favorite episode?

[Tarol]

Are you a real person?

Who else do you know on here? Anyone in real life?

What is your opinion on lying?

Thoughts on multiple personality disorder?

Do you think some questions can have multiple meanings?

What do you think of superheroes and their alter-egos? Would you call that lying?

[Miss Friendship]

Are you a real person?

........................................................................

Who else do you know on here? Anyone in real life?

Sing, and Mandy and Jay.

What is your opinion on lying?

That it's wrong. Always. EVEN IN HOLOCAUST SCENARIOS. >__>

Thoughts on multiple personality disorder?

Celebrities and clowns have them.

Do you think some questions can have multiple meanings?

Uh huh. *remembers her archive of inside joke questions*

What do you think of superheroes and their alter-egos? Would you call that lying?

I don't know anything about them.

[Eleventh Doctor]

How often would two people need to talk to be said to be talking often?

[Miss Friendship]

Do you remember a favorite episode?

"He loves me, he loves me not" was a pretty funny one. I didn't really care about Laura and Almanzo but Nellie was hysterical. I also liked that episode where Caroline and Charles competed with restaurants because Caroline wasn't at home to cook.

How often would two people need to talk to be said to be talking often?

Fine. We talk a lot. I was just trying to avoid Ox's question.
