If you could have any pet which would it be?


IRL, I'd like a tenrec. They're a little smaller than hedgehogs, they live much longer, they don't get sick as easily, and they're not as defensive. Basically tree hedgehogs (except they're actually not closely related to hedgehogs at all!) Unfortunately, they're not technically legal in Colorado.

This is a surprisingly challenging question. Maybe some kind of parrot, but I'd hope I was in a responsible home.
They're just so smart and they always look like they're having a blast.

I chose between biology and music performance when I was going into undergrad. In the end, biology won.
I really loved music and playing my flute, but I /really/ hate practicing. I figured I could do science for a living, and maintain music as a hobby. It's harder to do music for a living and molecular biology for fun.

What is your MBTI personality type?

Supposedly INFP-T.
I'm always a little "??" on these types of tests, though, because every time without fail, half the questions will be some form of "when you experience this emotion how strong does it feel and do you feel this a lot" and I'm sitting here like [laughs in borderline personality disorder]

I literally cannot take personality tests without getting meme level results in whatever their "feelings" component is
Image

I've been taught to handle my feelings, but I don't think the tests want to know how I feel after I've gone through five layers of emotional self regulation measures. Like, that's basically cheating lol

If we lived in a make-believe world where I could 100% meet any animal's needs no matter what, I would totally want a griffin vulture.

If we go by what's actually achievable - when my cats depart this life, I'll likely get myself pigeons. If I have to pick a fancy breed I'd love some type of "owl", Oudhollandse Meeuw are quite pretty and so are Old German Owls, but I don't have my heart set on a purebred.

Ok but life as a pitcher plant, just vibing in a bog in florida, hopefully not getting poached and eating lots of insects without moving?

I suppose I'd wanna be a cassowary, because the two best things in life would be to be a bird and having the innate ability to keep people at a respectful distance. Also I'm scared of heights so I have to be flightless.

Though I would not turn down the chance at becoming an Armillaria mushroom and redefining humanity's concept of what it means to be an individual living organism.

I promise there's a question at the end of this post lol

-attempts to imagine staff chorus and gets excited because I very much enjoy SSAA choral music-

Berricuda wrote:

    Well, I started choir young in school, so I definitely have a few years of singing under my belt. I was a soprano at the time until I started getting older and wasn't trained how to properly sing the higher parts. Along with that, there was one year I got a terrible, terrible cough that lasted for months and would leave me voiceless some days. This caused a lot of vocal problems. I eventually moved down to alto/alto-tenor. Kinda salty over that, but what can I do.

    My range? Oh gosh, I got tested on that every year... I believe my last year in choir my highest was a B flat and the lowest was... E or F? maybe? Either way, I was one of the two lowest women voices in our women's chorus, lol.

Rip your voice, but also, dang that's low.

My high school music teacher had me in the soprano 2 group, is that a thing? ^^

It is! I was soprano 2 before puberty hit my voice and turned me into an alto 1 :lol: I don't know how often mixed choral groups and their songs subdivide soprano/alto/tenor/bass, but the subdivisions definitely happen for women's and men's choral groups and their songs (and the groups really ought to be renamed to treble and bass choral groups or something, but inertia...)--lots of SSA, SSAA, TTB, and TTBB music out there.

To anyone: When you're not doing staff things, what CS boards do you browse the most?
Spread the word to end the word, because discrimination based on perceived or actual IQ/"intelligence" is no better than discrimination based on race, gender, etc.

Context, consistency, and clear antecedents are golden.
I neither read nor speak between the lines. But I will analyze your language.

Another question, does anyone have a favorite snake? I love Malaysian Coral snakes. They're so vibrant and beautiful, yet so poisonous.

Favourite snake is probably the boomslang. Saw one once when we landed in the Okavango delta and it slithered quickly off the runway.

Not into fruit cake :c

Alduin. wrote:to anyone-

totally random but what is your favorite kitchen appliance and why? (i made toaster kid and i need a sibling for him,, also i like asking weird questions and i'm curious)

I know this is now becoming a meme, but the air fryer is my all-time favourite appliance. I honestly don't know how I've survived this long without knowing of its existence until last year.

Bumble•Bee wrote:lol, these are all so much fun to read

To, anyone
What's you favourite icecream flavour & which brand? And do you prefer to have it in a cone, or just a bowl?
Mine is Tip-Top's chocolate fudge sundae, and I prefer cones just cos they're fun :3
yikes

Haagen Dazs Matcha Green Tea
I'm also a fan of cookie dough, not into cones because I always get the defective one where it spills all over the place, so it's usually bowls for me :')

Birdsforlife wrote:To, anyone

Favourite animal/animals?
Haven't really seen this asked yet c:

African wild dogs and leopards, lions are cool too <3

oakhearted wrote:To anyone of the staff members:

I'm an INFJ, I've taken the test a few times now and it always comes out the same.

nickjr wrote:To anyone: When you're not doing staff things, what CS boards do you browse the most?

I often browse between general discussion, adult discussion and animal chatter. If I'm in a trading mood though I'll be around the trading boards.

I'd like to say yes because I've gotten away with a few seriously crazy kills. But I'm not super convincing a lot of the time, I just don't have the best explanations and counters so I often get voted out unless I have a really solid alibi.

I enjoy singing and acting, I did a lot of both in high school and a little bit in college. But I get severe stage fright when I'm the center of attention and it kills my ability to sing on key entirely. So as much as I love it, I'll stick to hiding in small choirs and being background characters in small town musicals.

Haven't answered any questions in a while so I went through and picked a few!

    I'm usually pink while wearing the ram horns and a lab coat!

    Besides Among Us, I've played League of Legends, Minecraft and Jackbox party games with a few of the others before.

    I'm actually fairly awful at lying, most of the time I'm easily found out before I've even had a chance to do anything as imposter. I've only had a couple of games where I was able to pull off some good lies to throw people off my trail.
nickjr wrote:To anyone who sings (or even those who don't lol):

    I think I've always been a soprano, it's been ages since I've sang in a choir so I honestly have no clue where I'd be these days.

    For a short time I considered it when I was younger, but I realized that I don't really have the passion to do anything musically as a career and would rather keep it a hobby.
nickjr wrote:To anyone: When you're not doing staff things, what CS boards do you browse the most?

    I frequently browse the CS Discussions and trade boards as well as the help boards, though it depends on the day and what's going on at the time.
