If you can point me in the direction of where I can find the film without purchasing I will gladly watch it! Also there are apparently multiple versions; I'm not sure which one you saw?

The Innocents (1961) directed by Jack Clayton & starring Deborah Kerr. I don't know where you'd find it for free but I do recommend.

So I was bored and made this random list of books I've read over the years and I'm curious to know how many of them y'all have read! Feel free to ignore of course! http://www.listchallenges.com/67-random-books-this-girl-has-read

I've only read 3, hopefully more to be added!
I note that you read Turn of the Screw, I haven't, but I will because I've seen this excellent film based on it which got me interested in the book. Shall we do a deal, you watch the film and I read thebook? :)

I recently heard a strange rumour that the CIA owns this site. The person who shared it with me thinks they're building psychological profiles on everyone here. What do you think of that idea? Who do you imagine may have created this site, and why do you think they made it?

It reminds me of the graffiti near where I live that says I'M WATCHING YOU.
I always reflect that this person must be very bored if they're watching me :)
I don't know who made this site but I do think the CIA operate in a lot of nefarious ways, such as helping create jihadism in the 80s by supporting just about anyone who was against communism, even though some of them such as al-Qaida turned out to be worse than communists.
On a tangent I would recommend this.

How do you react when someone is being dry with you, giving you one word answers?

Syphira’s Profile PhotoSaphira
I don't have anything to do with them.
How much effort would it take to respond politely?
I can see the appeal of rudeness as its 6am on Monday, but it's still the case that I don't indulgei. it myself and hope others never do with me.

How have your musical tastes evolved over the years? Have you always enjoyed the same style of music, or has it changed from one decade to the next?

Well I've had no sudden shift, such as ceasing to listen to a particular band or genre; I listen to virtually all of what I listened to at 21, but of course I've gradually evolved by adding more.
By reading about the bands I like, "X were influenced by Y", "A did the best cover of B's classic track, C" I got new ideas and in this age of Youtube and Spotify it's easy to satisfy your curiosity, which I suppose I Must have more of than most.

To keep in with the autumn theme this is a song I associate with autumn. :)

I'm going out for dinner tonight, which has got me thinking - What is your favourite food to eat when you go out for dinner? (If you can't think of a specific dish, is there a place/type of food you like to order?) ?

ronniebon’s Profile PhotoRonnie
Which of your children do you most love? ;)
The dinner I'd eat out is different to what I'd cook or buy to eat at home so I'd go for a curry here \m/

The fish curry is what I'd have for this hypothetical meal, then dessert at home.

I'm borrowing this question from @amrokasha76 because it's an awesome idea for a group question. Please use this as a free space to talk about anything that's on your mind. I can't wait to see what you discuss!

Well it's the 2nd of September so there can only be one answer to this (Thannkfully I'm not going back to school on Monday, or ever), I'm reflecting on the change of the seasons. :)

I took the enclosed picture in August 2014, I remember reflecting that it's like me in that it should be summer but looks and feels like autumn. (I know that the reason I felt that way was because I was quite ill with my thyroid, but it hadn't been diagnosed; I've recovered now).
So if you read the poem I hope it will start your own reflections, and look at this.

For those who've had partners: what's the pettiest/dumbest thing you've gotten upset with your partner about? What about the other way around? If no partners: apply this question to anyone else.

Well I am a bit upset that she often doesn't want to do things, even when I'm doing things in her city such as this
http://www.mountainsonstage.com
And even though I'm going to her city and hopefully seeing her beforehand, it would be better if she went. I know our interests aren't exactly the same, but I suppose she is far better than anyone else I can think of so it doesn't matter that much.

What's your favorite holiday? Why?

Easter, as I usually go on a walking trip & spend Easter Sunday in a good, High Anglican church, lots of smells and bells and 17th century English (the perfect relaxationafter my walk, then I eat and drink merrily).
The metaphor of redemptive sacrifice means a lot to me even though I'm an agnostic, I take to Lent and Easter natually. The hopefulness and reemergence is something I celebrate, and church seems like the place to do it.
This year.

Have you ever read a self-help book or taken a self-improvement class-- anything like that? Did you find it helpful?

No, I haven't really done such a thing.
But on a vaguely related note, I'd like to mention again the biggest influence on my art. I saw him on a programme called Countryfile in 2012 and one thing led to another and I was soon starting to take my photography more seriously, do photobooks, wall calendars etc. Though I haven't made any money out of it, I've been creatively fulfilled thanks to Hockney after hating art at school. So this was my "self help book" :)

What's the last song you listened to that made you cry? What about it drew out that particular emotion for you?

AmericanLass’s Profile PhotoC.
Well as you may recall, I've often mentioned an incident last year when I was talking to my girlfriend and my phone died during the conversation. She was furious and when I got back and put my phone on charge I found a lot of texts about how she hated me and never wanted to see me again.
Somehow I turned that around and i'm still seeing the same girl. But I always carry a phone charger around with my nowadays. And this is the song of that day. (despite being 32, I still have the emotions of a teenager it seems- that doesn't really change).

What are your ideal sleeping conditions? Complete darkness/light? Thick sheets/no sheets? Music/tv? Windows/door open? Alone? How do you BEST get to sleep? ?

ronniebon’s Profile PhotoRonnie
Well I just woke up after not sleeping well, I wish I knew :(
insist on total darkness (you'd be amazed how many cheap hotels haven't grasped this concept, to the extent that I no longer stay in them) & silence (ditto).
And some music
