Excellent choice Hercules! Good game.
Have I ever wagged school intentionally? Yes. Not until college though. Perhaps it was part of being away from for the first time, but I wagged too many classes. The ones I skipped the most (and flunked) were German, History, and Agribusiness.
The German teacher had such a heavy German accents, that I couldn’t understand his English. I had to retake the History class in the Summer at the community college in my hometown. It turned out to be a terrific class. It was interesting and I’ve never learned so much. And the Agribusiness class was due mostly to unfortunate timing because I had to go from a horseback riding class out at the barn back to campus about a mile away. And I much preferred being at the barn. Probably more info than you wanted. Hah! Skipping classes was so...rebellious and so unlike me.
HAVE YOU EVER worn someone else’s shoes?

I have worn my Dad's shoes to a wedding event when I was 19. They were some black zip up ankle high boots.
Have you ever kissed your pet on the head?

Yes, yes, yes. I kissed my doggies on top of their heads, on their noses, on the side of their faces, and on their ears, both inside and out!
But not my cat. I would but he tolerates hugs and is not ready for kisses yet. Someday I hope to get to. Maybe this time when I finally get home?!
HAVE YOU EVER worn someone else’s underwear or swimsuit?

For Halloween when I was 6 my older sister dressed me up in her clothes including girls knickers. It was embarrassing. But at 6 years old you do what your older sister tells you to do. She made me flash the knickers to her friend which was a bit stink too. Luckily the night was over pretty quick. Guess she got a laugh out of it. I guess kids stuff. Have you ever worn pink lipstick because you wanted to have a different state of mind that day? And if so what state of mind? |

No, not pink lipstick, but one time I drew a crazy lines all over my face in lipstick. It looked tribal and angry. I think it expressed my inner crazy, stressed, and angry feelings that I was having at that time. Have YOU ever set off a fire alarm? |

I don't think so. As I have always been shy and introverted, this is not something I would have done. In the US, it is not customary to greet people with a kiss, we're more handshakers...or should I say we used to be handshakers.
Have you ever told a lie to someone to protect their feelings?

All the time. My value system is to tell the truth unless the truth would hurt someone's feelings. Then I lie. "Yes I did like the welcoming ceremony you put on for us" (despite that it was long and boring in reality) Incidentally I have twice had to kiss a woman on the cheek when she insisted as a greeting. It was not welcomed by me. Have you ever run more than 5k? |

No, I have never run further than a 5k. And in fact, I’ve never even run a 5k. It is really not my thing, and I rather dislike it. I especially disliked it in school. That being said, at one time, I had several dreams about being a runner, out on the road, just running for miles. But, I never pursued it.
HAVE YOU EVER broken or destroyed something belonging to someone else on purpose?

HAVE YOU EVER broken or destroyed something belonging to someone else on purpose? Yes. Well 90% yes. I keyed someone's car based on being in a love triangle/jealousy rage. I blacked out and when I came out of it there were scratches all over his car so presume I did it. I donated $3000 to charity the equivalent of the fine for vandalism to charity last year to atone for my sin. It happened 20 years ago. I also threw away a garage door opener that belonged to a landlord on purpose as he wasn't going to give my deposit back for it out of pettiness. I donated some money recently to charity for that too. All of things impact your self concept unless you atone for them. Which leads me to my question - have you ever sinned and then atoned for it in some way later? |

The only thing possibly related to this is an incident when I was a little kid. Once when I went to the store with my dad, I stole a dime out of the March of Dimes placard display. My conscience got the better of me, and I told my mom what I did. The next day we went back to the store to return the dime. That’s the part I remember, but I’m sure there were other repercussions.
Have you ever sold something belonging to someone else? And kept the money for yourself?

Have you ever sold something belonging to someone else? And kept the money for yourself? Yes As a volunteer job I sold donated odds and ends for a charity on eBay I gave out the charity’s back account for payment One day someone gave me 20 cash roughly And I kept the money My reason was that I had spent about $25 on mailing costs out of my own money for various sales for them I felt bad later and anonymously donated $100 to their web site Still feel guilty about it Have you ever kissed a man has a beard ? |
