I don't have a favorite, but I do have a least favorite:

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
>>741 I did Visual Basic at school, then when I got a job at a games studio there were sometimes tiny code fixes I was able to do myself to save the programming team's time but I'm not much of a coder at all. When the company folded, I did wonder if I'd be able to take the code-base and make something cool out of the dead project but I have to much other stuff going on to really spare time to learn how to code. The idea I had was to make the player characters... made of constantly-generated water shaped like them, and they splash about.
>>743 Would you play a splashy fighting game where the fighters were made of water?

What is the single most useless piece of information you still remember exactly?
>>749 There's a lot of it in me old noggin, but I can perfectly recall the particular set of noises the toilet the cottage in the woods I lived in until I was 6 made when it flushed. Whhhw-whhhhw, whhy whhhwHhh... ba-dumpah-dshhh...(...)
>>751 What do you do when you can hear your downstairs neighbours are having a party?
>>752
Tabletop: GURPS for the flexibility, though I find 5E surprisingly pleasant. Video game: Planescape Torment, because I felt like I could actually choose what role to play, while also taking in a pretty decent story. (The only JRPG series I've really played is Ys, so I can't really judge that category.)

What's your favorite pole arm?

I ate spicy food for dinner last night and I'm dying in my chair at work today.

What is your preferred email provider?
>>757
Cut a piece of salmon. Remove the scales. Add some salt. Simmer for a couple of minutes. You may wish to cut it up while it is simmering to distribute the heat more efficiently.

If your life was a game, played by beings in some higher plane of existence, what would the speed-run leader board look like for [insert a life goal of your choice]?
>>758
I'm not sure I fully understand the question. I have no idea what the speed-run leader board would look like, because I don't know any beings in a higher plane of existence, let alone their names.
But here are a few random life events that I think would be funny to speedrun:
>>760
What are you watching recently?
>>762 It will affect my currency, or maybe we will have a new currency then and it can just be part of the settling-in period for the new world. Whatever happens, I don't really care, life will happen and I will only sort of be part of it.
>>764 Do you ever worry the weather where people live will be manipulated by malicious forces?
>>763
I did a couple of modules of meteorology back in undergrad, and... no, I really don't. The sheer amount of mass and energy you'd have to manipulate to cause any kind of harmful weather, e.g. a drought or hurricane, is way out of our technological reach. The only weather manipulation we can do at present is cloud seeding, and even that only works locally, temporarily, and only if clouds are on the verge of forming already anyway.
>>765
What is your opinion on body pillows?
>>766 I have a bit of a crackpot theory about astrology... see how the moon affects the tides, well what if the different celestial bodies actually do hold some kind of sway on different people on our planet born at different times? For example if Mars has, I don't know, a lot more iron in its core, and people born at a time when it's close to Earth are more susceptible to something in it, compared to people born when another planet is aligned with the Earth a different way. Like what if people born at different times of the year were affected by which planets were nearest at the time, and as they swing back into orbit, those planets affect the people in different ways? As in the universe is a complex system and the positioning of everything makes a tight, perfectly arranged mechanism for how life on Earth plays out. I'm drunk and pretty sure this is a lot of bullshit, but I also bet there's a lot of variables humans aren't aware of and can't measure/understand yet. I've always thought horoscopes were superstitious nonsense, but it's interesting how often people match the stereotypes they were born into.
>>768 Do you know enough to tear my pseudoscientific inklings to shreds?
>>773
Sorry, I don't know anything about cocktails. I think my sense of taste is plebeian enough that they would be wasted on me.
>>775
Autumn, followed after a gap by winter. Probably because of the lack of humidity (where I live).
>>777
Whoa, 777, an auspicious number. You must be pretty lucky. What's the most recent stroke of good fortune you've had?
>>773
(replying because I missed the first time and >>776's answer was boring)
I make cocktails but nothing fancy, usually just mixing whatever juice I have with whatever alcohol I have. However my favorite is hands down gin + Jamaican ginger beer.
>>776
Yesterday I forgot to bring proper shoes to a basketball event, but it turned out my friend had the address wrong anyway, so we just spent the day drinking craft beer instead. In this way two misfortunes became fortunate.
>>778
What's a fond memory you have of 2018?
>>783,784
It depends on how the string you are using is defined. But admittedly, C-style string is often presumed these days due to its simplicity, and many abstractions that are employed like a more flexible C-style string are widely used in practice, so this is more like a nitpicking (one open to more nitpicking), as programmers are wont to be like.
>>785
Never, my parents hate me and would never give me a camera that worked.
>>787
Are you the funk soul brother?
>>801
Cinnamon donut. It must be completely saturated by cinnamon, not just some half-assed sprinkles. The cinnamon should be adhered to the surface by butter, to the point where it has completely soaked into the skin of the donut. Not too much sugar. Maybe a bit of nutmeg.
>>803
What is your dream lover?
>>802
A dominant, muscular older guy who'll choke me and slap me around a bit during sex but then turns into a total puppy dog and just wants to cuddle afterward. Also he needs to like anime and laugh at my jokes.
>>804
Have you ever travelled outside your country of origin? If you've done it more than once, which trip was your favorite?
>>809 "The end of the fucking world", I was like 12 years old, watching it over and over on summer break, playing runescape and pokemon sapphire all day, also just learned to how to masturbate that summer. I think I'll remember that til the day I die.

Have you ever felt intense nostalgia for something from your childhood, say a game or a movie, then gone back and watch/play/etc it again as an adult and it's just not the same? What was it?
>>810
Yes, unfortunately I've had that experience with multiple things. Off the top of my head: Worms World Party, Pokemon Silver, The Demented Cartoon Movie, and Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
On the other hand, Roller Coaster Tycoon is still just as fun as it was 20 years ago.

Have you ever felt intense nostalgia for something from your childhood, say a game or a movie, then gone back and watch/play/etc it again as an adult and it's just as good as it was before? What was it?

When was your first visit to 4-ch and how did you find it?
>>820 Nya, the mentally ill racist-anime-twitter adjacent one who findommed some redditor into recording himself saying "nigger" and sent it to his woke girlfriend and got doxxed by a bunch of angry black people for it. Not my favorite because I particularly support any of that but because it's all so spectacularly fucked up that I can't look away. Like watching a train crash into an orphanage.
>>822 What's the last book you read for pleasure, not for school or work, and what did you think of it?
>>821 I read lots of books, this year I read a good book called "Wittgenstein's Poker" about an infamous confrontation between Ludwig Wittgenstein and Karl Popper, and it compared their similar situations as Jews escaping the Nazis. It was really interesting, but the book I'm just about to finish is this beautiful, signed copy of a book called "Dharma Delight" by Rodney Greenblat. You might know him as the creator of Parappa The Rapper and my girlfriend Um Jammer Lammy. It's an illustrated guide to various buddhist concepts and stories. It really is delightful http://whimsyload.com/product/dharma-delight-signed-copy/
>>823 How many books do you read per year?
>>822
A couple here and there, mostly work related (programming). I've read most of what I care to read, no one's really written anything very interesting since Wittgenstein/Heidegger/Derrida.
>>824
If there is such a thing, what is the relationship between the mass attenuation coefficient of an element and the threshold at which EM radiation is able to ionise an atom of that element?
>>827 Fuckin loads, a tree was cut down and pulped to make this paper, and due to an oath I took I am required to honour their lives by making art on their body parts instead of just binning the scraps.
>>829 Check this out, a sheet of paper is to a tree what a burger patty is to a cow, what do you make of that‽
