This is a repost from the ShinyLatios thread, I just decided to post it here for everyone if they choose to answer these questions themselves. Yes, this is alot. Just answer all these questions if you choose to take this task. Don't skip any of them.
For the sake of blah, I've changed the text below to Arial font. I wanted the default forum font, but I dunno what it is :(
I double spaced for the sake of my eyes. Please type your answers below the questions and bold them, please :)

-snip-

How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?


Which is worse, failing or never trying?


If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?


When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?


What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?


If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?


Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?


If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?


To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?


Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?


You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire. They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing she is your friend. The criticism is distasteful and unjustified. What do you do?


If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?


Would you break the law to save a loved one?


Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?


What’s something you know you do differently than most people?


How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy?


What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What's holding you back?


Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?


If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?


Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?


Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?


Why are you, you?


Have you been the kind of friend you want as a friend?


Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?


What are you most grateful for?


Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?


Is is possible to know the truth without challenging it first?


Has your greatest fear ever come true?


Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it really matter now?


What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?


At what time in your recent past have you felt most passionate and alive?


If not now, then when?


If you haven’t achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?


Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?


Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?


Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?


If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?


Would you rather have less work to do, or more work you actually enjoy doing?


Do you feel like you’ve lived this day a hundred times before?


When was the last time you marched into the dark with only the soft glow of an idea you strongly believed in?


If you knew that everyone you know was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit today?


Would you be willing to reduce your life expectancy by 10 years to become extremely attractive or famous?


What is the difference between being alive and truly living?


When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards, and just go ahead and do what you know is right?


If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?


What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you?


When was the last time you noticed the sound of your own breathing?


What do you love? Have any of your recent actions openly expressed this love?


In 5 years from now, will you remember what you did yesterday? What about the day before that? Or the day before that?


Decisions are being made right now. The question is: Are you making them for yourself, or are you letting others make them for you?

I entered the thread willing to answer a few questions.

Do you use reddit? If so, provide Reddit Username.

If you use reddit, what are your favorite subreddits?

Do you play League of Legends? If so, provide Summoner Name.

What is your REAL name?

Have you ever smoked marijuana?

Do you play Minecraft? If so, provide Minecraft Name.

If you play Minecraft, what servers do you play on? What do you like to do on said servers?

Eh, the first part was intended for ShinyLatios, but I can't ask him cuz Catboy closed it to start another one. So I decided to repost here. You don't have to answer the first set of questions, lol.

How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?
Science gives me a good guess and what does age matter?
Which is worse, failing or never trying?
I am an insignificant blob.
If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
Do people?
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
Given I rarely say anything....
What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?
Magic rewind and make big changes button, otherwise nothing.
If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
...
Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
If I believe in nothing and spend my time doing nothing....
If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
I figure I have 40 years from the stopping being a moron kid until my body gives out and maybe a little while after that.
To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?
Do nothing and nothing happens
Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
I am at the mercy of physics and have yet to defy it.
You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire. They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing she is your friend. The criticism is distasteful and unjustified. What do you do?
If a tree falls in the woods...
If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
Kill them all.
Would you break the law to save a loved one?
I break the law to pass the time.
Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?
No
What’s something you know you do differently than most people?
Sadly I am not a unique snowflake.
How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy?
*Points to biology*
What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What's holding you back?[/SIZE
Largely I do what I want. If something has not happened I might like than maybe world class laziness
Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
No
If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?
I would travel endlessly first. Failing that somewhere colder.
Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?
Switches are one of the big failure items and switch bounce is an equal problem. Faster.... I doubt it.
Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?
Since when is worried an antonym for joyful?
Why are you, you?
*Points to biology and long term macro effects thereof*
Have you been the kind of friend you want as a friend?
If people were clones of me then I guess there would be little to no drama and drama makes the world go round it seems.
Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
I am old- not seeing someone for 15 years means nothing. Also several people and places exist to see.
What are you most grateful for?
Physics.
Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?
Define memories (procedural, explicit....). I could always relearn things so old memories gone.
Is is possible to know the truth without challenging it first?
Do things go unchallenged?
Has your greatest fear ever come true?
What is worth fearing?
Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it really matter now?
Have I ever been extremely upset?
What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?
See above.
At what time in your recent past have you felt most passionate and alive?
I do not follow.
If not now, then when?
Whenever.
If you haven’t achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?
Urgh
Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?
Communication is far more than just verbal. I guess it is possible but mouth sounds help.
Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?
There are major religions that support love?
Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?
See biology.
If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?
Projected rest of life ~40 years at best. 25,000 dollars a year for life though interest might also work...... possible to do it I guess.
Would you rather have less work to do, or more work you actually enjoy doing?
Who says I have work?
Do you feel like you’ve lived this day a hundred times before?
Are we back to causality questions again?
When was the last time you marched into the dark with only the soft glow of an idea you strongly believed in?
See "scientific method".
If you knew that everyone you know was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit today?
Nobody.
Would you be willing to reduce your life expectancy by 10 years to become extremely attractive or famous?
I figure I am already extremely attractive and I would probably sacrifice the ten years to avoid being extremely famous. That said people say fame is fleeting and to sustain it would take some effort on the part of another that might be worth seeing.
What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
Philosophically- nothing. Scientifically- biology argues about this to this day.
When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards, and just go ahead and do what you know is right?
Never stop calculating.
If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?
Are people afraid to make a mistake?
What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you?
In accordance with philosophies taking a fairly unambiguous phrase and reading a lot into it mine was "wherever you may be let the wind flow free". Short version- I gave up caring about being judged long ago.
When was the last time you noticed the sound of your own breathing?
Don't think of a pink elephant?
What do you love? Have any of your recent actions openly expressed this love?
Might have to define love. Using inbuilt definition nothing and never.
In 5 years from now, will you remember what you did yesterday? What about the day before that? Or the day before that?
I could probably calculate it and use prompts. Days are a fairly arbitrary frame of reference anyway and projects take months.
Decisions are being made right now. The question is: Are you making them for yourself, or are you letting others make them for you?
More causality questions?
