Ok...so since I'm both running this AND nominated, here's how it goes:

Post your questions for those of us running for Mr SC and the $20 cash prize.

Follow-up questions are welcome.

Don't be shy.

I'm the tallest person in the running. You probably can't tell from the pictures everyone posted, so I figured I'd mention that. I don't think I understand what the point of this thread is.

I think people are supposed to ask those that are in the running (which would be us) questions.

I have a question for the both of you:
Does the carpet match the pubes?

Does the carpet match the pubes?

You're in luck! Violet recently shaved my pubes and when she was done, I slid off the towel I was laying on, and arranged them into a neat little triangle shape. Violet said it had to be photographed.

Next is a picture of my cat which should provide a decent enough view of my carpet.

I have a secret gay crush on cranium. Becoming bored with FY.com and becoming obsessed with GDP, I clicked his link hoping it would be pics of him in the nude. I was only slightly disappointed to find out it wasn't pics but a community he set up all by himself. I signed up figuring that at some point he would post nudes of himself.

I'm 193 centimeters!



How the hell did you end up at SC?

I followed a link on Mr Craniums profile at FY a long time ago, since I had/have a huge man crush on the big fella. I've been a part of the FY community for, I dunno, 6 or 7 years? So I'm kind of fond of the bastards.
And stuff.

Shitty answer, I know, but I kinda want to go drinking now.

No, my carpet is a greenish commercial grade carpet, kind of like the toned down version of the carpets I've seen in movie theaters.

How the hell did you end up at SC?

Hmm... That was a while ago. I was dicking around with StumbleUpon and came across Violets profile from back in the day when she was a Mod here. In her little "About me" blurb was a link. I thought, "shit, she's kinda cute...lets see what its about" and I wound up here.

As to why I stayed: I got more laughs and "made me think" moments from reading the shit that was on here than I had in a long while. I'd never been a part of a forum before but I liked the attitude of most of the original members. Sadly some of them have fallen by the wayside. However, I have made some decent web friends and even one or two IRL friends.

Plus, even though most of the people here know my actual identity, here is a place that I can just let loose and spout off about what the fuck ever I want without receiving a tirade of bullshit from friends and family with a less than well informed opinion on things.


Also, my question for all of you: If you could live the next 24 hours and then erase it and start over, just once, what would you do? (Think "Groundhogs Day"). No remorse, no punishment, no grudges held and hell, you might not even remember (That is up to you).

I live in a college town. I would rape everything in sight. I mean c'mon don't fuckin judge me. It's like they're bred to be hot by the time they're college age, then their bodies wither and distort. It's not fair.

What do you think are your best and worst qualities? Why?

I hate this question, just so you know. Always have, always will. Ranks right up there with "What do you see as your greatest fault?"

However: Best, I'm a survivor. I haven't been through as much as a lot of people have, but through my own hardships I have never given up and I never will.

Worst: I'm a lazy fucker sometimes. I don't know what else to say about that.

Do you consider yourself to be a moral person? Why or why not?

Yes I do, and moreover I'm moral not because of a fear of some divine retribution should I not be a good person, but because I feel it's the right way to be. With THAT thought, I have to (pridefully) admit that I feel I have a stronger moral compass than most Christians.

What's the worst thing you've ever done? Describe in detail.

Clarify, please. Worst experience or worst act?

SlimSkeeter
06-11-2011, 12:08 AM
How would you describe colour to a blind person?

I'd compare it to musical notes.


What impact are you wanting to leave on the world?

I simply wish to be remembered fondly from time to time. I hope that my friends and family will be telling stories about me long after I'm gone.


If you could do one thing today to make the world a better place, what would it be?

Depends on how broad of a brush stroke you are talking about. My quick fix would be to abolish organized religions that spur followers into ravenous, murderous, and despicable acts in the name of their god.


If you could name one person who has had the most influence on your life who is it and why?

Imagine locking away a part of yourself out of fear. Imagine that that part of you is filled with so-called dark emotions. It's very powerful, it can be scary, and if it's let to run rampant, it makes you into a Beast. Then imagine someone comes along and sees that part of you and helps you to realize that you can harness that side of you. The chick I'm currently seeing has done that for me and currently, I believe that she has had the most influence on me, as a whole, just from that act.

No

2) Would you rather be blind or deaf (and why)?

Deaf.... I'm a highly visual person, and I love to read.

Have any of your blood relatives ever been involved in an incestuous relationship? If yes, were you one of the aforementioned individuals? If yes again, was this the experience from question 1?

Dude, WTF.... No, not so far as I'm aware....

Do you consider yourself to be a moral person? Why or why not?
This isn't yes or no for me--- it depends. So now I don't have to explain why/why not.

What's the worst thing you've ever done? Describe in detail.
I quite honestly cannot think of anything epic off the top of my head. I, while gritting my teeth, called my daughter a dumb fucking whore yesterday when she had been a cranky pissy missy for about three hours. Does that count?

How would you describe colour to a blind person?

What impact are you wanting to leave on the world?

If you could do one thing today to make the world a better place, what would it be?
1. I wouldn't.
2. I got into physical therapy largely due to the impact my profession has on others. It is very rewarding to reduce or eliminate pain in people who have lost hope in leading a normal life due to chronic pain or whatever their dysfunction may be. By the end of my career I would have changed thousands of patients lives by some degree. That's part of the impact I intend to leave. The other would be to fill the atmosphere with as much of my brand of methane gas as I possibly can before I die. My farts are awesome and I enjoy sharing them with the world.
3. Reduce, re-use, recycle.

If you could name one person who has had the most influence on your life who is it and why?
The wife. Without her I wouldn't have been able to consider going on to PT school. And of course other common marriage related personality/life outlook/etc. altering changes have taken place in the both of us which are uncommon to anyone else I've met in my life.

1) Have you ever had a gay experience?

2) Would you rather be blind or deaf (and why)?

3) Have any of your blood relatives ever been involved in an incestuous relationship? If yes, were you one of the aforementioned individuals? If yes again, was this the experience from question 1?

4) Doesn't Cranium look like Phil Collins in Cabbage Patch form?
1. No. Offering?
2. Deaf. Some women are easy on the eyes but hard on the ears. Also, if I can't hear them I don't have to tell them to shut the fuck up while I'm having my way with them.
3. No, but I'd definitely do one of my cousins.................................................he's hot.
4. Yes, that's why I'm obsessed with him. I touch myself to "in the air tonight" while looking at his pics.

I love your new avatar... Just sayin.

Worst act I've ever done was to steal $4000 from my place of employment. Spent one of two nights in jail because of that. It's haunted me to this day and currently I'm pondering how much it would take to get that expunged from my record, as it's literally the ONLY thing on my record. I was at an extremely low point in my life and if I ever have any regrets, that is the one. HOWEVER, it did jump start my life and put me on a different path. I think I would not be very happy had I continued the way I was going before that.

Do you consider yourselves good "boyfriend material"? Why or why not?

Absolutely. I'm not overbearing or overprotective and although I am territorial and a bit possessive, it's not to an unreasonable level. It's more to the point of letting her know that she is mine and safe with me.


Do you prefer long term relationships or casual encounters?

Nominally, long term relationships.. Right now, I'm more leaning towards casual simply because I'm getting tired of drama but my goal is having a long, stable, relationship.


Do you think society puts too much pressure on men? Why or why not?

Yes, we are at once supposed to be gentlemanly and treat women as equals. Holding the door, paying for dinner, buying drinks as well as treating women as total equals in every step of life and it's simply not fair. I can do one or the other but asking me to be both at once is unfair.


Who is your dream woman - and what three qualities make her so?
If you are looking for a name, I can't give you one. I want a woman who can be a dirty, sexy, no holds barred sex puppet with me, yet be able to be a total lady in public. She needs to be able to be intelligent, as well. And has to have a biting wit.



What was your worst sexual experience?

My very first one.... Well, my very first couple, really. Same girl. Just layed there and screamed while I did everything. Very annoying.


Do you have any fetishes? If so, what?

Yes... Honestly, I'm into a little light BDSM stuff. Biting, scratching, hair-pulling, restraints, spankings. If either/both of us don't walk away with teeth marks and scratches, I'm not entirely happy

Mamba

SlimSkeeter
06-11-2011, 02:17 PM
Are you more visually or intellectually stimulated? Give examples.

I go both ways... I can sit and admire a beautiful woman or a sunset or a landscape for no other reason than because it's beautiful. I also enjoy reading and researching things if something catches my interest. I've spent days going through the stacks at the library just chasing down information on something that piqued my curiosity.


What is your dream profession and why?

Don't have one. Working isn't really something I dream of doing. I enjoy being with my friends and having a good, well rounded life. Work is just a means to an end for that.


Do you think you have had a bad or good influence on the people in your life? Why?

I believe I have a good influence. My best friends are treated well, and I have set at least one up to be married. I may not be popular but the people I care about know it and feel it.


Do you have any skills or knowledge that make you stand out from the average? Describe.

Good question. Pretty sure my wit counts for that. But that is more up to others to decide...

SlimSkeeter
06-11-2011, 02:25 PM
If you had to kill an innocent child or let 100 people die - what would you choose?

Let them die. Not a sin I committed, that way. I can live with a sin of omission.


Are you a social creature or do you prefer to be alone? Why?

Depends on the day. I'm ok being alone and reading a book or dicking around on the computer, but I enjoy having fun with friends, too...


If you had to split the "evil" and "good" in the world using percentages, what do you consider each percentage would be today?

Can't do it...it's not black and white like that. I can't really point at anyone and say "He's evil, but she's good".


Who do you go to for advice? Why?

Several people. Mostly because, if I'm to the point where I need advice, I prefer having several opinions instead of one.


On a scale of 1 -10 how to you rate your own attractiveness?

7 or 8, depending on the day.


On a scale of 1-10 how do you rate your libido?

9

Do you think society puts too much pressure on men? Why or why not?

Who is your dream woman - and what three qualities make her so?

Describe your worst and best sexual experiences?

Do you have any fetishes? If so, what?
1. Yes. I'm a fan of "new love" and the anticipation of going out with someone new. Also, I have mad game.
2. As I am now in a long term relationship I now prefer casual encounters.
3. No. It's a man's world.
4. Not sure. Quality 1) Insanely hot 2) Insanely smart 3) Lady on the street but a complete ape shit fucking dirty ass whore in bed.
5. I have no worst sexual encounter. Every encounter I have ever had is fucking awesome.........because I'm the other person in the encounter.
6. I like to eat pussy.

Are you more visually or intellectually stimulated? Give examples.

What is your dream profession and why?

Do you think you have had a bad or good influence on the people in your life? Why?

Do you have any skills or knowledge that make you stand out from the average? Describe.
1. Visually vs. intellectually? Not sure I understand why those two were chosen to in tandem instead of something more dichotomous but whatev. Given the choice I would go intellectually. Not a fan of stupid chicks. College is wrought with em. That's probably what turned me on to the wife. Specifically what? I dunno, I'm a fan of any girl that can throw my argument in my face and make me rethink things.
2. Physical Therapist in a private outpatient orthopedics setting. I'm a fan of working four ten hour days and having a three day weekend. I'm also a fan of large sums of money. Not a fan of never having to use my head all day. Hence I wouldn't want to be a millionaire pro athlete.
3. Some bad most good. Why? How I treat a person and how I impact that person depends entirely on how I feel about the person.
4. Ugh...my knowledge of the neuromusculoskeletal system for one...my ability to make a woman cum every time with my tongue for another.

If you had to kill an innocent child or let 100 people die - what would you choose?

Are you a social creature or do you prefer to be alone? Why?

If you had to split the "evil" and "good" in the world using percentages, what do you consider each percentage would be today?

Who do you go to for advice? Why?

On a scale of 1 -10 how to you rate your own attractiveness?

On a scale of 1-10 how do you rate your libido?
1. Depends entirely on if I knew the child or the 100 people.
2. 40/60 ratio for being social vs. being alone. I like to hang out and I like "my time" but more often than not I'll choose "my time."
3. 50/50
4. I don't go to anyone for advice. I figure things out for myself. I hate people that seek advice for everything. My sister-in-law, for example, gets on my last nerve for constantly calling about the dumbest shit....like what color kleenex box to get or something.
5. 9.5 - just like my penis.
6. 10

If you died today would you be happy with your achievements to date? Why or why not?
No. Haven't graduated yet so I haven't started my career so I haven't been able to buy and play with all the toys I want.

If you could live the next 24 hours and then erase it and start over, just once, what would you do? (Think "Groundhogs Day"). No remorse, no punishment, no grudges held and hell, you might not even remember (That is up to you).
I think I'd call my boss and tell him to go fuck himself. But then I'd actually get ready for work and leave like I always do without telling Violet any of it.

While I was out, I'd rob a bank and buy a computer. Then I'd waste several hours at the mall, I don't know, probably at the arcade mostly, whatever. Then I'd take 200,000 of the stolen money and throw it in the account. I'd show up at home at the usual time computer in tow with a fanciful tale about how we came into so much cash. That would make the girl and boy happy.

I haven't been bitten by a vampire or anything, I think I'm mortal. What a silly question.




What's the worst thing you've ever done? Describe in detail.

OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.

What you're asking is to make a choice between 1 nobody versus 100 nobodies (in which any one, or all, of the 100 could be children as well---in accordance with the wording of your question). Who the hell in their right god damn mind would decide 100 dead is justifiable over 1---all things being equal? Not I, nor should anyone.

Uhhhmm... I think it depends on who you are. The 'background' of said people would be of far more interest to me.

If ones background involves a misappropriated amount of value for a single child versus, say, 100 children or even 100 adults, I wouldn't care about them enough to want to learn of their background.

It's not such a simple choice. I said "KILL" a child or "LET 100 people die" - one you are killing yourself, the other you are killing by omission. The difference: The distinction between doing and allowing, i.e. between what we actively do (harming), and what we omit to do (failing to help).

If we kill, we intend and actively persue the death. If we let die, the death is foreseen, but not intended.

This is the classic Utilitarianism vs. Deontological ethics debate. Utilitarianism supports the former (yes - KILL THE CHILD) as utilitarianism ethics state that what is morally good is something that results in the greatest good for the greatest amount of people". By this rationale, murdering one innocent person to save more innocent people is deemed morally good because saving many innocent lives is a greater benefit for society than just saving one innocent person...

However, on the other side - the deontological ethics state that the morality of an action depends on the action itself regardless of the consequences of the action. This means the ends never justify the means in deontological ethics. Even if murdering one innocent person were to save more people, it is not morally permissible because the action of killing is immoral in all cases. And by THIS rationale - the person making the choice would let 100 people die RATHER than kill an innocent child.

There are many, many arguments for and against each: An example below:

All lives are equal, and therefore they must be weighed equally.


Yes:
Regardless of age, gender, race, or social standing, all human lives are equal in value and should be regarded as such. All humans are created equal and are equally sacred. Therefore, human lives should be weighed equally when making the quantitative comparison between saving one person and saving a hundred. Since all lives are equal, it is obviously better to save a 100 people at the expense of 1 person rather than save 1 person at the expense of a 100.

No:
We must not look at humans quantitatively, but qualitatively. Would you sacrifice a young 5-year old to save 5 90-year olds? Or what if the one innocent person we killed to save 3 people were to actually become the scientist who finds the cure to cancer and save millions of lives worldwide in the future? Humans cannot be judged as purely numbers on a comparison scale. Therefore, there are definitely instances where killing one person to save many others is not better, which goes directly against a utilitarian philosophy for the affirmative.

Skeeter, it appears - supports the Deontological ethics - and you the Utilitarianism.

I would look at it not so much as should 1 die or 100 die. But rather, would I kill another human, or would I not kill another human.
I would choose not to kill. However, if some of those 100 were friends or family, I would most likely throw my moral values in the thrash and kill the kid.

Clearly. If it was my child, I'd say kill every one of those dumb 100 fuckers. If it was 100 people I knew, I'd kill the kid myself.

Okay, let's try to make it a more feasible situation, with less people.

AGAIN - You don't know these people.

You are driving along and you are on a two lane road (each lane in going a different direction)
A hitch hiker is on the side of the road heading towards you and a car is in the other lane with two parents and two children.
everything is fine until a truck decides to pass the car and comes into your lane.

You have to make the decision to hit the hitch hiker (killing one innocent person) , hitting the car (killing four innocent people), or killing yourself by running into the truck
so, kill yourself or the hitchhiker (in other words killing one innocent person) in order to save the family of four, or kill the family of four?

lol

Slam on the brakes, swerve furiously in direction of hitchhiker (magically keeping control :wink:), narrowly miss hitch hiker (who is paying attention and jumps out of the way anyhow). End up in ditch, call tow truck.

Hey.. and wait. You said road. not highway. Speed limit's gotta be like 35 at most. ^ this would totally be feasible.

Being that all of this must be happening in a split second, my brain would depersonalize that family of 4 into no more than a part of a big flying chunk of metal. The truck, of course, would be seen as an even bigger flying object, heading straight for me.
The activation of the fight or flight instinct would change the situation from a moral dilemma into a battle for survival.
The adrenaline rush from that fight or flight response would impair any logical thinking, and put me into survival mode.
This would make my one, only, and last act, to be that of stepping on the brakes hard, thereby sending me crashing into the truck. Not by choice, but by instinct.
If I had ever even noticed the hitchhiker, any thoughts of him/her would be wiped clean as soon as I saw the two death machines.

If you had to kill an innocent child or let 100 people die - what would you choose?


Both, just my twisted sense of humour, but i would tell the 100 people in order to save them they had to watch me kill the innocent kid, after which i would simply let the 100 people die, no remorse, anyone who stands by idly watching an innocent kid die to save their ass, deserves the same fate.

Are you a social creature or do you prefer to be alone? Why?


I need social interaction, but my batteries recharge in periods of solitude.


If you had to split the "evil" and "good" in the world using percentages, what do you consider each percentage would be today?


I don’t think people are good or evil, i believe most people are just indifferent, and circumstances sway them to either choose good or evil. so good - 10%, evil - 5%, indifferent - 85%

Who do you go to for advice? Why?

My wife, she is the more practical one, i would probably be a social outcast without her, since i seem to have no filter between my brain and mouth

On a scale of 1 -10 how to you rate your own attractiveness?

body - 8, Face - 7 (living in Africa, sun damage takes its toll here.

On a scale of 1-10 how do you rate your libido?

Depends on how much jacks i have consumed, generally always horny, just more so when i have been drinking : Sober 6, Drunk - 8, Hungover - 10.
