Guest MormonGator Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Nope. I'd like to think I'm a fairly brave guy (I'm sure everyone says that) but that's not on my bucket list. Have you ever handled a ball python or snake of any kind? I have. Love em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroads Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Yes. I'm somewhat amused by ironic deaths.Have you ever been attacked by a wild animal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiritDragon Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Maybe. Does being sprayed by a skunk count? I had an encounter collecting eggs in the chicken coop as a child, less than pleasant. Have you ever dated someone only to find out later that you're cousins?

NightSG Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 On this thread, please do not just yes or no answers. Please answer in a way we get to know you better and then ask another HYE question. Have you ever jumped out of an airplane? Yes. Without a parachute, even. Fortunately it was parked at the time. Have you ever dated someone only to find out later that you're cousins? Never been more thankful that I hadn't kissed my date good night. Have you ever driven 100+ miles to a "Sunday dress" activity only to realize you left the good shoes at home and only have the pair of gray sneakers you wore for the drive?

Dr T Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Thank you NightSG. I like that you answerd my OP and it was fun reading about you in your answers. The intension is to answer the person just below the last post. For example, Yes, I have eaten things with my eyes closed not knowing what it is. My children and I often do that and I have always given them things they I thoughts they would enjoy eating. I build my trust with them that way. HYE found $20 in a coat pocket?

Bini Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Yes, I have! And it's always such a nice and welcomed surprise Have you ever grabbed someone thinking it was someone else? Dr T 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MormonGator Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Have you ever grabbed someone thinking it was someone else? Sort of. I was at a rest stop in Route 95 in rural North Carolina. My wife had gone into the rest room and I was on the outside waiting. It was about three in the morning. When "she" came out, I surprised her by going "Boo!" it wasn't my wife. The shriek was so loud that I can still hear it to this day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prisonchaplain Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Yes, I have! And it's always such a nice and welcomed surprise Have you ever grabbed someone thinking it was someone else? WORSE! I came back from making an order at Burger King, went to the table, bent down, and starting reciting the order to my 10 year old daughter, to make sure it was right. About 30 seconds into this I look closer, and realize it's a 16-ish girl, in a BK uniform (probably on a break). My daughter is in the next booth over snickering like crazy! HYE been alone somewhere, and no one spoke English, and you didn't speak the local language? Dr T 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarVortex Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 MormonGator: How convenient that the poor woman had just used the restroom, or else your error could have been very messy. HYE been alone somewhere, and no one spoke English, and you didn't speak the local language? Yes, my first visit to Priesthood when I was an investigator. And I'm still deciphering LDS abbreviations and discovering that I mispronounce many Mormon things... most recently, I discovered that I was mispronouncing "Mia Maids" like Mia Love's first name. HYE shaken hands with a current or former U.S. President? (I once sat at Ronald Reagan's desk on Air Force One, but I never saw the Gipper in person.)

(I once sat at Ronald Reagan's desk on Air Force One, but I never saw the Gipper in person.)Yes, George W Bush when he was campaigning in New Hampshire. I was in college at the time and a group of us went to a function where he was at. This was in 2000. Have you ever been the recipient of a super good deed? I had someone pay for my breakfast a diner once. It made my day. Edited January 15, 2015 by MormonGator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vort Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Have you ever posted something, then regretted it, then tried to change it but it made it worse, then posted something else to explain your posting, only it was like three times as bad as what you originally posted, then you tried to disclaim what you posted but everyone already read it and now you're stuck with it? Yeah. Me neither. Windseeker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarVortex Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I cannot think of any times I have done this too badly. But I have a friend named Mr. K. who was a closeted gay man that worked for a fairly large company. One day Mr. K. got an email from a coworker asking for a recommendation for a good dentist. Mr. K. replied with rich, juicy details about his own dentist, using terms such as "super hunky," "hot," and other things that I cannot possibly mention here. After Mr. K. sent his email, he discovered to his utter horror that his coworker had actually sent the original email to the entire company, and Mr. K. had done a "reply all." That's why I said above that he "was" a closeted gay man. HYE gone to some remote place and bumped into someone that you knew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightSG Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 HYE gone to some remote place and bumped into someone that you knew? Creepily often; first I can remember was in a mall in Dallas, running into a girl I knew from Stephenville that had moved away years before.Then a friend's brother delivered a pizza I'd ordered at a party 150 miles from where we'd lived last time I saw him.Then I ran into an ex girlfriend's ex husband (from after we'd dated) in the same area. Have you ever grabbed someone thinking it was someone else? How I met my very first real girlfriend; from behind she looked a lot like the girl I had a major crush on at the time. Should have kept her; she's still just as cute as she was 25 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiritDragon Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Have you ever been the recipient of a super good deed? I had someone pay for my breakfast a diner once. It made my day. The post above mine doesn't seem to have a question for continuity, but this one also appears to have been left unanswered thus far. As a missionary in Utah I frequently had meals paid for. As far as being the recipient of a super good deed, I really appreciate that my parents changed my diapers as required, I was entirely helpless to do anything about it myself. Although I've also enjoyed others they don't come to mind right now. Have you ever missed work on account of back pain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever missed work on account of back pain?Yes I have on multiple occasions but ever since I found this Chiropractor I have not missed work due to back pain in several years. Have you ever gone to the bank to make a deposit or another transaction and waited in line only to discover while talking to teller you were at the wrong bank ???

jerome1232 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Sort of, I once put a quart of milk in the microwave instead of the fridge. It was in there overnight. The kids got no cereal that morning.Have you ever placed an item into a safe location for safe keeping, only to lose it there for an extended period of time?

Well... no, actually. But I have opened the refrigerator and forgot what I wanted to fetch, and then remembered just as I was closing the door. Have you ever said something awkward or embarrassing about another person, and then discovered that that person was standing right next to you?
