The Glade 4.0

Questions combo!

1.) Is being a kind, non-aggressive person a sign of weakness?

2.) You are stopped at a stop sign, but not the first car in line. When the cars in front of you depart, are you legally obliged to stop right in front of the sign and then proceed, or has your previous waiting counted as coming to a complete stop already?

3.) Who would win in a fight: Dr. Who or Q (from Star Trek)?

4.) (Speaking of Q) Who QQs more in MMOs: Rangers (or similar class) or Paladins (or similar class)?

5.) Is ignorance bliss, or just ignorance?

6.) For Men: If a woman were once a man, would you still have sex with her? For Women: Vice versa?

7.) Do the Yankees receive more concessions (leeway, not the edible kind) than other Baseball teams because of who they are?

8.) If "pro" and "con" are opposites, what's the opposite of Progress?

9.) Why is administration such a female-dominated field?

10.) If you had the one-time option to redo your life, would you take it?

1) Generally no. However, depending on how you carry yourself while being kind and non-aggressive, it might be.
2) Each car has to stop at the stop line.
3) Pass.
4) IMO, the more offensive hybrid. DPS hybrids have a lot more competition than defensive (tank or healer), so will be more sensitive to perceived imbalance.
5) I generally like to be knowledgeable about everything, but some things I just don't want to know.
6) Probably not.
7) Pass.
8) Pass.
9) Not sure what you mean.
10) Probably not.

_________________

Mookhow by "administration" I mean more office-oriented jobs.

1.) Not necessarily.
2.) You have to stop again at the line.
3.) Q for sure. Dr. Who is brilliant, but he's not omnipotent.
4.) Definitely Paladins, at least in EQ. Rangers always had a sense of humor about their class issues.
5.) Ignorance is bliss so long as you are ignorant of your ignorance.
6.) If she's hot, she's hot.
7.) Concessions from who?
8.) ssergorP
9.) Sexism
10.) Absolutely.

1. It can be.
2. You have to stop at the line. Pretty sure that's the law.
3. I've never watched Dr. Who, but I have a hard time imagining he is more powerful than Q.
4. Rogues whine more than any other class, regardless of game. Followed very closely by EQ monks.
5. Just ignorance.
6. No.
7. I have no idea.
8. ...
9. I...don't know?
10. My entire life? Hell no.

To clarify the Yankees question: Concessions received from agencies/entities that could directly or indirectly affect their performance in a game.

Questions combo!

1.) Is being a kind, non-aggressive person a sign of weakness?

No

2.) You are stopped at a stop sign, but not the first car in line. When the cars in front of you depart, are you legally obliged to stop right in front of the sign and then proceed, or has your previous waiting counted as coming to a complete stop already?

In California, yes. your state may have different rules.

3.) Who would win in a fight: Dr. Who or Q (from Star Trek)?

Q - unless he decided to play cat and mouse. Q sucks at cat and mouse and the doctor is quite good at it.

4.) (Speaking of Q) Who QQs more in MMOs: Rangers (or similar class) or Paladins (or similar class)?

Rogues, whenever they aren't the top dpsers.

5.) Is ignorance bliss, or just ignorance?

Just ignorance.

6.) For Men: If a woman were once a man, would you still have sex with her? For Women: Vice versa?

I've been celibate for a decade, and monogamous for a decade and a half before that. Today, for me the question would involve emotional content, do I care enough about this person to want to make love with them. It would also involve knowing if the now-woman was once a man. Back in my twenties, before I hooked up with the woman who became my wife - probably, just to have done it.

7.) Do the Yankees receive more concessions (leeway, not the edible kind) than other Baseball teams because of who they are?

Yes.

8.) If "pro" and "con" are opposites, what's the opposite of Progress?

Leading question, standard joke answer is congress, there are several answers based on non-joke status, such as decline, decrease, and retreat.

9.) Why is administration such a female-dominated field?

Women multi-task much better than men, in general. Administration is a field that demands multi-tasking.

10.) If you had the one-time option to redo your life, would you take it?

Yes, I would, if the offer came from God. Given such an offer would probably not come from God, I doubt I will have to make that choice.

1. No. That's probably me to a T(with the exception of sporting events...I'm a beast). I don't think I'm weak at all. Pick your spots.

2. Legally, yeah but I admit if I'm the only one going through then I just do the slow roll then head on through.

3. I'd go with Dr. Who mostly because I'm not as familiar with Q. I'm assuming this would be some battle of wits or chess match cause neither of them strikes me as the physical type.

4. QQs? Maybe I've been out too long but I don't remember or know what that is. I'll just go with Ranger.

5. Ignorance

6. Hell no. She may look like a woman and act like one, but she's a man, baby.

7. At times, yes. Freakin Jeter...

8. Government

9. Chicks don't do as much heavy lifting as fellas do.

10. I ask myself that a lot...sometimes I say yes...most of the time I say no.

Nitefox,

Q is a near omnipotent being in the Star Trek universe. Lots of smarts, godlike powers, but he blew his wisdom roll. Doesn't realize he blew it though. Considers the Captains of Star Fleet his playmates.

QQ = crying/crybaby, used in a humiliating sense in most cases.

Rodahn only made a question about Q because it's a quote in my signature.

I swear it was coincidence, but funny you should mention that quote. Out of the blue just within this past week I thought of that quote and started thinking about that very episode. Such a great episode.

Questions combo!

1.) Is being a kind, non-aggressive person a sign of weakness?

3 words. Approval seeking behavior. That, is the sign of weakness. You can be kind without being a little b*tch.

2.) You are stopped at a stop sign, but not the first car in line. When the cars in front of you depart, are you legally obliged to stop right in front of the sign and then proceed, or has your previous waiting counted as coming to a complete stop already?

Legally, probably should stop. I just use my judgment. If I can see there is no oncoming traffic, and there are no cops, I'll go.

3.) Who would win in a fight: Dr. Who or Q (from Star Trek)?

I have no idea.

4.) (Speaking of Q) Who QQs more in MMOs: Rangers (or similar class) or Paladins (or similar class)?

Don't know.

5.) Is ignorance bliss, or just ignorance?

That statement is just an over-generalization.

6.) For Men: If a woman were once a man, would you still have sex with her? For Women: Vice versa?

Hell no.

7.) Do the Yankees receive more concessions (leeway, not the edible kind) than other Baseball teams because of who they are?

Who are the Yankees?

8.) If "pro" and "con" are opposites, what's the opposite of Progress?

roflcopter

9.) Why is administration such a female-dominated field?

Multiple reasons, probably the biggest reason being men find it uninteresting.

10.) If you had the one-time option to redo your life, would you take it?

Redo? No. Live another life? Yeah, maybe, after this one.

Yes, you are legally obligated.



I don't know who Dr. Who is but Q would probably just flee if he was losing.



Rangers.

I think all states of intelligence are equally blissful.

Nope.


Not sure.



Regress



Because it's easy.



Hell no. So repetitive. Endless hours on the Internet. Don't think so.

edit:

Do I get to change my past behavior? In that case I would redo it.

1. no

2. You have to come to your own separate complete stop at the sign (YMMV from state to state)

3. What kind of a fight? why would they fight? and I think whoever wins we loose.

4. the Teenagers who play them.

5. just ignorance

6. No

7.No

8. Regress

9. Because executives want someone to mommy them, or Eye Candy, or both.

10. No.

_________________
I prefer to think of them as "Fighting evil in another dimension"

1. No, you can be kind and non-agressive without being weak.
2. It is a stop sign...if it is in front of you, you have to stop. It's not in front of you if you are 3 cars back.

3. Who would win in a fight? Dr. Who, of course, Q is a coward and blinks away from confrontation.
4. Rangers
5. Ignorance is plain ignorance
6. Na
7. Of course the Yankees receive more concessions.

8. Regression

9. I first read this and thought administration was referring to Management positions..but then noticed Rodahn saying it is office positions. I believe there are more women in office positions due to the stereotype that it is a womans job, just like nursing was considered a womans job. Men don't want to take these positions because of this stereotype and for fear they will be considered "less" of a man. Be honest...would you make fun of a male secretary or consider him a strong male role model?

10. Absolutely, I only need to make one different choice though.

I think that you can be a nice person without being weak, but like Nev was getting at, the trick is not being passive to the point of being a floor mat. If you give people the chance to walk over you, they will.

As for Question 8, I was going for the answer "Congress." Yeah, lame, I know

1.) Is being a kind, non-aggressive person a sign of weakness?
I agree with Nevandal, regarding the approval-seeking behavior. Being kind in and of itself isn't a sign of weakness.

2.) You are stopped at a stop sign, but not the first car in line. When the cars in front of you depart, are you legally obliged to stop right in front of the sign and then proceed, or has your previous waiting counted as coming to a complete stop already?
It's a tricky one. Let's say there isn't a line of cars to begin with. Who's to say you have to stop right at the line. Being stopped 5 feet from the sign should still be considered stopping. Maybe you like to stop earlier for precautionary reasons, such as intersections being the leading location of all traffic accidents. So it's okay to stop early without people in front of you, who's to say you have to pull forward just because the person ahead of you pulled far out into the intersection to stop? What if they were already peeking out ahead of the line when they stopped, and you were basically at the stopping point prior to them going? Do you need to pull forward past the stop sign just because they moved and you need to show the officer that you're making a conscious effort to stop a second time? There's a lot of vagueness when it comes to stopping. There isn't a specific line at a stop sign that you need to stop at. It's more of a general area that you need to stop at.

3.) Who would win in a fight: Dr. Who or Q (from Star Trek)?
Pass

4.) (Speaking of Q) Who QQs more in MMOs: Rangers (or similar class) or Paladins (or similar class)?
Pass

5.) Is ignorance bliss, or just ignorance?
Both. Who can argue with the bliss that is being a child? Ignorance can be very blissful. My friend has health issues that are hereditary. He'd rather not know than know his fate. If he has the disease, there's literally nothing that can be done for it and his mom is currently dying from it. If he were to know, it'd control his entire life. He'd pretty much know when he was going to die. I suppose that can be a good or a bad thing, depending how you take it and if it's what you personally desire.

Then again, being ignorant can obviously be a very bad thing as well.

6.) For Men: If a woman were once a man, would you still have sex with her? For Women: Vice versa?
Are you talking like Lady Gaga?

7.) Do the Yankees receive more concessions (leeway, not the edible kind) than other Baseball teams because of who they are?
I believe so. However, I also believe it works against them at times as well. Being the most loved means you're also probably the most hated. When you're constantly on top, people want to see you topple.

8.) If "pro" and "con" are opposites, what's the opposite of Progress?
Pass

9.) Why is administration such a female-dominated field?
It's easy. It's uninteresting to men. Also, it may have to do with money. Since the gender pay issue is still existent, it's likely they select women so they can pay them less. Also, I believe it has a lot to do with our graduation rates of this era. Women outnumber men as far as total number of undergraduate students enrolled across the nation, by a pretty substantial margin. Just from 1969 to 2000, the undergraduate enrollment for women has increased at a 157% rate, surpassing men...and that was 10 years ago. A majority of every degree type from masters down to associates are earned more by women.

What do all those statistics mean? It means that there are a hell of a lot of educated women who need to fall into a position somewhere. There are more women out there looking for positions.

10.) If you had the one-time option to redo your life, would you take it?
It'd be tempting. I'd love to have a second opportunity to experience life. However, I learned many things from my mistakes. It's a one shot deal, and that's what makes life so crazy.
