[Littlefeets]

For this week’s Question Thread, we have @lollipoplady! Congratulations!

If any of you have any questions for her, feel free to post below! If you wanna blow up her notifications, feel free to @ her, too!

The questions can be as silly as you like. Just make sure you’re following the guidelines – no swearing or NSFW/mature questions, please!

The Disclaimer

Replying to all of these questions is going to be a huge task! Please only sign up if you:

• Aren’t easily offended – As long as the questions follow the rules and aren’t too vulgar, there’s nothing we can do about questions that might offend people a little bit. So, if you’re someone who is easily offended, please reconsider signing up for this. It might cause you quite a bit of emotional distress! (We might work on a Restricted Section NSFW version of this if we get enough interest in that category).
• Have the time on your hands – We’re hoping this will be an active thing! Please only sign up if you have the time on your hands and you’re willing to answer all of those questions!
• Are okay with prying questions – just like with the offence issue, there’s nothing much we can do about questions that are a little prying. We’d like to have as many people who are willing to answer all the questions they can and come up with funny/silly answers for the ones they aren’t comfortable being truthful about. If that’s you, sign up!

The Rules

So every Thursday, we’ll be posting up a questions thread for a specific user.

That thread will be open for one week and will be closed just before we put up the new user.

You have 1 week to ask all the questions you can think of and the spotlighted user will have just the same amount of time to answer them.

After that week is up, the user is out of the spotlight and you’ve missed your chance to post on the thread! Of course, you can still ask them questions elsewhere, but it’s not their job to answer them anymore!

The spotlighted user will be given a badge and with that badge will come a title.

The spotlighted user will be required to keep the title for the full week so people know who they are.

@ShanniiWrites

If You Get Chosen

You will be granted the Forum Questions Star badge and you’ll have to change your title to “Forum Questions Star” – this will become an option on your profile as soon as you get the badge.

if you have a title at the moment that you want to go back to afterwards, make sure that you keep note of it so you can let me know after your week is over!

All you have to do is make sure that you scroll to the bottom of the thread and make sure you set it to “watching” (as seen below).

Then, just make sure you answer as many questions as possible before time runs out!

If you’d like to have the chance to be chosen for next week, sign up to the @QuestionsThread Group!
Remember you need to post a question at least to be kept in the running for questions star!

Hey @lollipoplady! I know you like coffee, but do you like tea? I forgot. If so, any fruit tea you recommend?

[MichiTheThird]

I don’t think I’ve asked you these yet (if I have, let me know and I’ll make new ones!):

• If you could have an ideal pet (even a mythological one) what would it be?
• What was your favorite fairytale (or story) when you were a kid?
• What is your favorite fruit? (coconuts count)
• What are some of your favorite characters (from anything: books, movies, shows, anime)?
• Do you have a funny family or friendship-related memory? (example: my Indian bestie ended up busting her knees by tripping on heels when she was drunk and fell off a stool, and years later we found a webcomic with a character that did the same exact thing she did…I laughed for days)
• Do you own a pair of red shoes?
• Did you ever have an article of clothing that was your favorite? (my current favorite is my sister’s vintage jean jacket, which I’m sure she’s literally kept since the 80’s )

@Ouijaloveletters

I know you like coffee, but do you like tea

I like tea, not as much as coffee, but I usually drink it if I’m not feeling well. Lemon ginger tea is good, and I really want to try the blue pea flower tea.

@MichiTheThird

If you could have an ideal pet (even a mythological one) what would it be?

I really want a cat, or two. Pets aren’t allowed in our apartment complex, but I’m moving in the fall, so I think I’m gonna get me a cat after I move.

@MichiTheThird

What is your favorite fruit? (coconuts count)

Pineapples, strawberries, passion fruit, blueberries, pomegranate… in fact, I like most fruits except for papaya and noni, because they stink.

@MichiTheThird

What are some of your favorite characters (from anything: books, movies, shows, anime)?

None come to the mind at the moment

@MichiTheThird

Do you have a funny family or friendship-related memory?

Yeah!! My favorite family-related memories are the ones from when my nephews lived here. Like the time we were hanging out at their parents’ restaurant, and the youngest (5 at the time) kept looking at my necklace, and finally asked, “How do you take off your neck?” Because he didn’t know how to say necklace. We couldn’t stop laughing all afternoon.

And a funny friendship-related memory was when I went to visit my best friend back in December, and since we’re both reading a story where the main characters—who are now famous singers— used to work in a post office, my friend and I actually went inside a post office, and she went up to the clerk and actually asked if (insert names of the characters) worked there. I was so embarrassed that I hid behind the card shelf, and it turns out that there actually was a person working there with the same name as one of the characters. So when the lady said she’d call him, we ran out of there!

@MichiTheThird

Do you own a pair of red shoes?

I used to… I had one pair of glittery platform heels when I was in high school. Loved those shoes! Then, I had another pair of shiny red pumps when I was in college. I wore them until they wore out. Now I really want a new pair.

@MichiTheThird

Did you ever have an article of clothing that was your favorite? (my current favorite is my sister’s vintage jean jacket, which I’m sure she’s literally kept since the 80’s )

Yeah! I’ve got a hot pink jumpsuit that I absolutely love, and I just bought a new pale blue floral print dress that I think will be my new favorite article of clothing.

Yes. Both are great anecdotes. Love it.

Huehuehuehue…mission accomplished.

So pretty!

Do you have a favorite dinosaur?

@lollipoplady

blue pea flower

I’ve had butterfly pea tea. It was bubble tea.

Hey @QuestionsThread people, remember to ask questions if you haven’t had a question thread and really want one!

[CrazyCaliope]

Hey @lollipoplady, how are you?

• Why is it that we call something “cool” when it’s not really cold?
• Could we cover the earth with pudding?
• What’s the first memory you remember as a baby?
• Is it possible that we are just aliens on this earth and people don’t even know it?
• If you were a kitten, what would your name be?

[CrazyCaliope]

Hey @Zeno_of_Elea, if you want a chance at being the question star then make sure you join the @/QuestionsThread tag. (wink)

[Zeno_of_Elea]

Ok!

[CrazyCaliope]

Cool. Don’t see you in the tag yet, but I hope to see you’ve joined it in the next 6 hours. (wink)

[lollipoplady]

@CrazyCaliope

Hey @Post_Melancholic, how are you?

Pretty good! Just having coffee and a shake right now.

@CrazyCaliope

Why is it that we call something “cool” when it’s not really cold?

Because ‘cool’ feels good… not too cold, not too warm.

@CrazyCaliope

Could we cover the earth with pudding?

Maybe, but it’d be uncomfortable.

@CrazyCaliope

What’s the first memory you remember as a baby?

I remember being about a year old and bringing a Charlie Brown book to church… somehow, I thought I could read it but I probably memorized what each page said because my parents read it to me.

@CrazyCaliope

Is it possible that we are just aliens on this earth and people don’t even know it?

I guess that’s possible

@CrazyCaliope

If you were a kitten, what would your name be?

I think I’d like my name to be Mia the cat
