The Random Question Game
jhocking:
duh, in the bathroom. What better place for deep thinkings than when you're on the shitter?
What is your weirdest fear?
Mnementh:
Be the change you want to be in the world. I don't see you asking any decent questions.
I'm terrified of my chef knife. It's extremely sharp and pretty large and I constantly worry that I am going to either trip and cut myself, or sleepwalk down the stairs and accidently stab myself with it.
Why do you suppose that automobile design has become so bland, across almost all markets and brands, of late?
Jimmy the Squid:
Probably because nobody cares anymore. I mean, almost everyone has a car and it's a pretty taken-for-granted type of invention. In earlier times I suspect people were all "Oh wow! Look at this cool thing that let's us go places fast! Let's see if we can't make it even cooler!!" However I like the design of some cars now. I really really want a Mazda RX6 (not just because it was the car in Xmen 2) because it is a really nice looking machine. I also want a 1969 Dodge Charger but I think that might come under the cars that were a little bit more interesting in terms of raised angles and lines and whatnot.
What is one thing you would change about your significant other? It can be physical but it can also be anything. People not in relationships need not reply.
McTaggart:
Dammit you're too fast.
But for Dan's question I think it has more to do with increasingly strict design and safety standards than with designers not wanting to show off. The more rules you impose on the design the fewer shapes that fit the rules there are and you run out of room for anything bold and new. The regulations are also built around the accepted design for the shape of a car so they kindof re-inforce that this is the way it should be.
I suppose it's also easier to sell people things they know and are comfortable with already.
SeanBateman:
Absoloutely nothing. She is perfect and wonderful and I love her dearly just the way she is.
If you could kill someone, and be absoloutely sure you were going to get away with it, would you? Who would you choose. Would you still do it just for the thrill, if it had to be a complete stranger?
