Is it weird I never had to parallel park to get a driver's license? I've been driving over 10 years now, and I'm not sure I could pull it off if I had to.

Maybe different states have different requirements for getting your license? I'm not sure. My guess would be that people rarely have to parallel park anymore. We have more parking lots, and parking garages now than in the past. Plus people use public transportation if they work downtown, not parking on the street with meters that you have to feed all day. idk? Just a guess.

Do you have any interests (nerdy or otherwise) you're completely unsocial about? Things you dump a lot of time into but, if someone asks you about it, you'd rather change the subject than try to talk to them about it? (Other than ask.fm, I should probably say :) )

My fascination with Fifty Shades of Gray, romance novels in general, and the fact that I watched all the Twilight movies surrounded by 15 year old girls, and we all squealed at the same times.

what are some things you like and dislike about the culture you most closely identify with?

Culture...I'm going to say I identify most with others from my midwestern city, most whom descended from German stock. So Midwestern, Caucasian, German heritage.
What I like is, people are typically kind, generous, good natured, well mannered, traditional, with a good work ethic.
There are definitely more positives than negatives, but people here are very slow to change. They also are very suspicious of anything too "fancy". They buy clothes at Target, make comfort food, don't know what sushi is, don't know anything about wines other than it comes in red, pink, and white. So, we aren't the most sophisticated culture, but when the chips are down, you can count on us. :)

Ask him if you can have his, he's not going to eat it. He was all, "Ew gross this has been tampered with I'm not touching such a vile thing!" And then I cried and ran into the woods where I was stalked and eaten by a wolf :'(

*gasp* He said vile??
Wait, if you were eaten by a wolf, how are you typing this? Little girls that tell lies have to go to bed at 8pm sharp. Go to bed, missy! *points*

Do any of you use the words, "misandrist" or "misogynist" around peers and family since you started contributing to Gender Studies(accidentally or otherwise)? If so, how do they react?

No. They would look at me like I have lost my mind if I did. Gender issues are not something we ever discuss. Other than we talk about how we'd like to see more women in the Catholic church as leaders. I'm sure none of them know what those words mean.

GLINDAAAAAA!!!! How did your driving exam go?

Applepop’s Profile PhotoⲆⲣⲣⳑⲉⲣⲟⲣ
APPLEKINS!!!!!! I passed!
You know what I did though? I got there early so I could practice with the cones. Despite the huge ginormous sign that says "DO NOT PRACTICE HERE! THIS SPACE IS RESERVED FOR TESTS ONLY".
So, as I'm illegally practicing (and knocking a cone over), a blonde woman driving instructor comes around the corner and starts yelling at me for practicing. She and a black man were the only two examiners, and thank the lord, I got the black man. A little charm was all it took and not knocking down cones. xoxoxox
I will NEVER let my license expire again. What an ordeal. whew

Any tips on keeping my bollocks cool?

Get a small blow-up kiddie pool, fill it with cold water, dump some ice in it, and sit down in it and enjoy the coolness. You can even have a fan blowing on you at the same time.
Or, fill a baggie with ice, and drop it in your underwear. You can impress girls that way too, cause it will look like a huge package. Until the ice water starts to leak, then they will either think you are incontinent, or you had a spontaneous orgasm. xoxox

When eating at a restaurant with plenty of empty seats does it annoy you if someone insists upon sitting right next to you? What’s wrong with them? There are plenty of others seats available. Why can’t they give you some space?

JessePinkmanGS’s Profile PhotoGrackles Know Your Real Name
Yes, it annoys me too. I think people all have a slightly different need when it comes to personal space. Some people (and cultures) don't mind being close. Like if you're on a plane or at the movies, and your shoulders or arms touch, I pull back, but other people don't mind it. Some people are close talkers too...and the more you back up as they are talking, the more they step forward, always in your personal space.

What is the best thing about living alone?

PRIVACY!!!!!!! Nothing I hate worse than someone hanging over your shoulder when you're online:
-What are you doing on the computer?
-Who is that?
-Why does he say "bollocks?" What does that mean?
-What website are you on now?
-Are you going to buy that dress you've been staring at for like an hour?
-I'm hungry
-Why do you minimize the screen every time I come in the room?
-I'm bored
-Why does that one girl keep talking about her labia?"
-Are you watching porn?
-I'm telling!
