Most loved sounds: Rain, thunder, the violin (fiddle), birds chirping or singing, crickets and laughter.
I hate to say this is a favourite word but I do say...whatever a lot!

What turns me off: People that are so full of themselves that they think they are God's gift to creation, arrogance, and people who couldn't give a rats a** to what is happening in the rest of the world. If it isn't in my backyard, it doesn't matter.
OK, now I am going to bed!
What is your favourite word? Try

First I'd say "sit the f*ck down, shut the f*ck up and listen here"....then I'd ask: Why do so many good people have nothing but bad luck and pain? Why do so many bad people have good luck and hardly any pain? Why do factory farms exist? Why have there been so many wars fought and have so many died in the name of religion? Why does GWB not have his own daughters fighting in a war which he started, supports, and is the commander in chief of? Why does he let so called "pastors" sometimes have so many riches while the congregants they preach to sometimes have nothing?....I'd go on and on...then look him in the eyes and say: Go f*ck yourself Mr. Cheney! I'm obviously in the wrong place! >:( ;)
OMG Davedrum. I didn't mention the ocean and it is truly one of my most favourite sounds and smells!

is God?? ;) ;D

;D ;D
I think it's because Davedrum thinks that Cheney thinks that he (Cheney) is God. Phew! What a mouth (hand) full!
What is your favourite word? hello
What is your least favourite word? anything derogatory
What sound or noise do you love? laughing, animals talking, my darling speaking to me.
What sound or noise do you hate? hammering - any loud sharp short and repetitive noise, arguing.
What turns you on? my sweet darling, kindness, awareness, compassion
What turns you off? intentional ignorance (when one chooses to be ignorant), hypocrisy, cruelty, suffering, indifference.
What profession, other than your own, would you like to practice (assuming you have all the skills)? animal behavourist, something anthropology.
What profession, other than your own, would you absolutely NOT like to practice? Anything involving cruelty to animals or people, word processor/receptionist/P.A. - never again.
If Heaven exists, what would you like to here God say when you enter the pearly gates? I, like Dave, would be pissed! I would give him/her/it an earful until he/her/it changed this cruel world. Then I would want my eternal nothingness, that I had so fondly looked forward to.
I think it's because Davedrum thinks that Cheney thinks that he (Cheney) is God. Phew! What a mouth (hand) full!
I normally don't care about what Cheney thinks but I care about God.
You made smile TKitty. I must confess I thought the same thing when you went...Humm intriguing...
I normally do not like to argue religion but I have a backbone for God, especially if I feel they are saying hurtful things... :-\
Dave don't take this personal. it's my feelings about it. Have nothing against your belief just your humor in this particular incidence, okay? ;)

Not to draw this out, but God can obvously take a bit of railing. Look at Psalms. Some of Psalms is written by very pissed off author(s) and it made it into the Bible. I'm sure an omnipotent being would listen and then tell some parable to help us all understand the big picture. Dave isn't saying hurtful things, he's saying things that are truthful of his perspective. Even Jesus had some doubt about the big picture.

I know, but maybe it's me but you don't command God to sit down or tell him: f*ck you.
As a matter of fact from how I feel, I know some people won't respect how I feel and that's okay. You never order God to do anything but is more like a cry for help and also the only thing I get from the bible...
BTW Honey I won't start a debate, just want to clarify my views to you.

Mindwalk,
If one does not believe in god or there actually being such a thing as god (or what makes your god better then a god others believe in) .....one can tell he or she whatever they want...perhaps you missed the humor in my post (Cheney).....as far as the other stuff....it's just what I believe....I'm not asking others to believe as I do....I expect others not to ask me to believe what they do...
though if there WAS one...I would tell him to sit down and shut the f*ck up.... ::)
(that's just me) ;)

I know, you're right, it just bothers me a lot... I'm sorry.
Everybody get back to the fun which this post was intented to. :)
what i thought was kind of funny is that it was preceded by this:
What profession, other than your own, would you absolutely NOT like to practice? being a judge (for who am I to judge anyone else)
hmmmm. again.
just givin ya a hard time here, d. i have to admit, if cheney turns out to be the G, i reserve the right to change my answer. (and wear bright orange!)
What is your favorite word?
Love.
What is your least favorite word?
I'm going to be well behaved and not say the "j" word. I don't really hate words though. Words are just words. But I can't stand the tone of someone's voice when they are intentionally hurtful. For me, it's more about HOW the words are said.
What sound or noise do you love?
The voices of people I love. Sounds of nature (esp. at night). The dradis on Battlestar Gallactica. Silence.
What sound or noise do you hate?
Any sound of pain. The sound of large groups of people. The sound of an intentionally hurtful voice (particularly from someone I love).
What turns you on?
Honesty. Caring nature. Good listener. Wicked sense of humor.
What turns you off?
Lies. Hidden agendas. Venality.
What profession, other than your own, would you like to practice (assuming you have all the skills)?
A scientist at a forensics lab solving crimes committed against animals. Wildlife vet/biologist. Pilot. Screenwriter. Adventurer.
What profession, other than your own, would you absolutely NOT like to practice?
Politician.
If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you enter the pearly gates?
God would say, "Welcome to heaven. Even though you doubted my existence, I'm making an exception."
And then I would say..."You've done a crap job so far. Your position here is now terminated permanently. We're replacing you with someone more competent." And then I would boot him out of heaven and put someone like Gandhi in charge.
I just wanted to say: Go Gandhi!
Thank you Shaolin for being one of the few people I know who can use the word "veniality" correctly in a sentence!! ;)
I notice that a LOT of us like the sound of thunder and rain...for me it's always been that way but more so having lived through a drought here when not one drop fell for over 3 years! Not one!! In fact when the drought broke it was late at night and I couldn't imagine what that noise was--it woke me up!
As for giving God what-for, I always figure when I'm upset with Him (and yes, sometimes I am), He already knows what I'm thinking, so why be a hypocrite and sugar-coat it? :-X
What is your favourite word? friend
What is your least favourite word? liberal (as a label that allows people to turn off their thinking!)
What sound or noise do you love? windchimes; the sounds of birds; purring cats
What sound or noise do you hate? the roar of a sports crowd; chainsaws; ringing phones and alarms
What turns you on? Animated conversation and a sense of humor, and vivacity!
What turns you off? Ill will and/or sportsmanship, dull wits, unpleasant aromas...
What profession, other than your own, would you like to practice (assuming you have all the skills)? Detective or forensics person... or wildlife photographer... or perfuming "nose."
What profession, other than your own, would you absolutely NOT like to practice? I don't think I have the emotional detachment necessary to go into politics... I would burn out in nothin' flat.
If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you enter the pearly gates? I can't even think of an answer to this one. I have my doubts! Erm.... "Not bad, kid. Now have a seat and we'll deal you in while you wait for your loved ones. You can go back in there when you're ready."
Thank you Shaolin for being one of the few people I know who can use the word "veniality" correctly in a sentence!! ;)
Yeah, today I decided that I'm against serial commas. Down with serial commas! I'm ushering in the new era of the one word sentence...period.
Venality.
It makes a bold point. Literally. ;)
