Jan 22 Where is one place you wouldn’t ever want to be caught dead?
Being pleasantly morbid about this, a coffin. Because one way or another, my mortal remains are going to be useful, whether as organ donation for someone else, or for scientific research. I've filled out all the paperwork, my family are bemused that I went to the effort but broadly supportive, and it feels a lot more real now than it did before I was diagnosed.
Jan 23 How would someone who genuinely likes and admires you describe you?
Kind, calm, gentle.
Jan 24 How would someone who doesn’t really like you describe you?
Lazy and indecisive.
Jan 25 If you had to teach a one-hour class with absolutely no prep time, what subject could you competently pull off?
At what level, and with what students? I might be tutoring chemistry fairly soon, so... GCSE chemistry?
Jan 26 What is the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you while out for a meal at a restaurant?
More often than I'd like to admit - leaving without paying. Never done it intentionally, but I've had to go back to places more than once the following day, and try to explain that I need to pay for meal I had earlier, and forgot to pay for.
Jan 27 What aphorism or saying is helpful for you right now?
Even in this age of concrete, even in this age of reason, there comes a time when you put your life into the hands of the gods.
Jan 28 What’s your favorite meme? (Post it!)
Polls. Polls are my favourite type of meme, from way back when the USENET was for something other than filesharing, I got to know a lot of great people through things pretty much like this - series of assorted questions that anyone who fancied posted answers to.
