No. Guarana is possibly the closest I've come.

Do you find the sound of church bells to be an assault on the senses?

I can't say that thought has ever occurred to me, though it does seem a somewhat nebulous proposition.

Are you following the Football (Soccer) World Cup?

No, but go Manchester.

I'm on the brink of a massive, explosive meltdown from sensory overload but I can't escape to quiet because there are mosquitos buzzing around my head adding to my duress and it won't stop.

Help! How do I not lose my mind?

Can you listen to music on headphones?

Or better yet, stay still and then squish the skitters when they land on you?

Is this a hypothetical question, or is it your present real-life situation?

Maybe comfort yourself with the certain knowledge that you will no doubt regain your mind in short order? The poet Virgil had a line which might have some relevance to such situations:

'Forsan et haec olim meminisse iuvabit'

I don't have digital music (therefore headphones), and don't have my earplugs and it's too dark to see them and I'm already wound up from other noise and hyperarousal. I'm going to really lose it shortly

Send a search party if I don't return.

I don’t want to lose my bosom lady of Our Thread!

Thanks, everyone! I survived. The ambient noise / chaos subsided and I was able to smack a few skeetos and find a fan. I'll be home tomorrow to decompress further. Yay. I'm so tired!

Thanks also for the quote, Deep Hour.

Also, I realize Manchester as a team isn't in the WC. Shows what I know about sports. Lol.

Have you ever cried at the cinema?

Yes, when I saw The Little Prince in the movie theatre a few years ago.

same question

Yes, at Dead Poets and Patch Adams.
Robin Williams could always get me.

Do you step on cracks?

I try to avoid doing so.

Are you, or have you ever been, vegetarian?


Glad to hear your situation's improved, Isabella.

I'm from Greater Manchester btw!

I was vegetarian for a couple of years after reading Charlotte's Web.

Do you have a bee tattoo?

No, I'm not into tattoos at all.

In which Continental European country would you want to live, if required to do so? (by 'Continental', I mean not GB or Ireland).

I'm drawn to Budapest.

Same question.
