favorite questions?
when trying to get to know someone whats your favorite open ended questions to ask to start a conversation? what kinds of info do you seek?
personally i tend to ask what their hobbies and interests are and try going from there.
what questions do you feel you can gain the most knowledge about a person?

Whether or not they have strong convictions, and what those beliefs are.

That's in regards to "What kind of info do you seek/What questions do you feel you can gain the most knowledge about a person". Asking those questions directly is not something I do, but spending enough time with a person will reveal that on its own. Actions speak louder than words I've noticed.

I don't think questions are really that useful, because most people will only answer with what they think you want to hear. Better to put them in a situation that answers a question without asking.

Bare-chested, sweaty cage match?

That'd answer some questions, sure, although I'm not sure how important they are unless you're auditioning people for a wrestling team :P

i swear i don't like the questions a lot of ot threads are asking. i could answer it but damn...

but talking about things generally, it's something like linux, interests, all of those quirky stuff.

What do you think of guys giving each other hugs or holding hands?

Life is one big wrestling match. Ya gotta know who's got the goods to back you up.

Nah, see, expecting someone to have your back is how you get cheap shot with a chair.

sure here are some of my fan-favorites:

Have you been hurt in an accidental car? Has the government sold your lungs without asking nicely? Are you mesothelioma? Answer me!

I then show my briefcase full of lemons.

works perfectly every time.

And how.
Even so, I'd like to believe there are people out there who would never allow that to happen. Those are the ones to keep close.

That's what the chair-wielders want you to believe

Maybe music too but people here are more towards sending songs rather than talking what genres they like

Maybe Philosophy too which is where I troll
