Jacob Interviewed by Jacob Part 3

Another installment of "Jacob interviewed by Jacob"?!





You bet your bottom dollar!!! (what ever that means)





Let me rundown the premise of this blog: I scour (yes, scour) the vast interweb for random and embarrassing Myspace surveys and answer questions. However, after looking through a few sites, I've concluded that....

A. It's extremely sad that there are websites fully devoted to asking whether you have been to the mall in the past month or sleep with or without clothes on (just uncalled for...on, if anybody is wondering)

B. Myspace is just unnecessary

Refer to point A: I do think it is necessary to mention that there is some editing required. Mostly because some of the questions are so ridiculous....even for this ridiculous blog post...


So, without further adieu...









What's the first thing you do when waking up in the morning?
In a bit of randomness, I ALWAYS get up and go over to the window and look out. Interestingly enough, I never really did this until this past summer when I was working in the trees. I'd get up for work at 5:50 and immediately go see if it was raining OR even showed the hint of possible rain. Everybody in the tree biz knows: rain=day off. I guess the habit stuck.

Do you prefer a shower or bath?
This one is simple: 100% shower. I suppose baths could have the potential to be relaxing but really it is a little disgusting. You are sitting in filthy water of filth. Just filth all around. No thanks

How many times a day do you brush your teeth?
I go with the standard 2.....I've heard rumors that a post-lunch brush should be included but really seems like excessive toothbrushing. I do commend anybody who can pull of the 3 brush schedule. That truly is a job well done

What would you do with a 10 bill you found on the ground?
Coincidentally,I did find $5 dollars on the ground a few weeks ago. Normally, if I actually see the person drop it, I'll put a little pep in my step and catch them so I can give it back. However, if nobody is in sight and it's just there, I'll definitely snag it.

Do you look up or at your feet when you walk?
I stare people down right in the face when I walk. It's awkward. Well, mostly I'm all over the place looking at trees, people with interesting hair, squirrels...


Do you like Starbucks?
Honestly, I think I like actually sitting in Starbucks more than actually drinking it. I'm not quite sure if that makes any bit of sense but the atmosphere in Starbucks is quite dandy for having a conversation. Anybody who has had a conversation in Starbucks can attest to that fact. Can't beat it.

Is it love at first sight or lust?
Ah, the age old question! I'll try to be concise. I think it's neither, really. I think there is attraction at first sight but even that is not always the case. I believe lust is birthed from selfish desire so obviously love cannot be present (1 Corinthians 13:5).
It's cool though because you'll hear about people who got to know each other intimately before they started to realize just how attractive the other person was. I don't think you can love consummately at first sight. Love is grown and takes time, sacrifice, commitment and unbelievable patience.


Do you ever actually make your bed?
I think I've lucked out considering the fact that the only two blankets I use seem to be magnetically attracted to each other. One quick throw and my bed is made. I'd say a good 93% of the time it's not made though. It's rare if I make it when I get up. 4pm always seems to be a standard time to make my bed.

How many pillows do you have to sleep with?
Definitely 2. Here's the trick that isn't really a trick: Lay them next to each other so no matter where you toss and turn, pillow is softly caressing your head.



Do you prefer to call or text someone?
I am not a big phone talker. The best thing about text is the convenience but also the lack of potential dead air that can commonly crop up when you are talking on the phone. We all know that can be physically painful. However, people calling in response to a text is completely uncalled for...we all know that

Do you "wear-out" good songs by overplaying them?
This is probably the one thing I do that annoys me the most. I grab a few new songs and it'll be continuous playback for a week straight. Tough habit to break, my friends.


How many texts do you send on average a month?
about 2 quabillion.....real number

Is your room clean?
You know, I find a clean room very reassuring so I'll say yes, most of the time. I feel a clean room helps keep life uncluttered. I have no explanation for that but it works for me

Favorite comedian?
This is a solid question. I actually like Jerry Seinfeld. That could be a bit generic but his comedy just makes sense to me. You cannot go wrong with Jim Gaffigan either.



What kind of jelly do you like on your PB & J sandwich?
In a bit of a twisty twist, I like honey with peanut butter. I also throw a little sugar on the honey. It's healthy, I know...

Tell me a random fact: I read the newspaper comics everyday...that is random


Best thing about winter?
It being over...

Do you think pirates are cool or overrated?
Uh, easily overrated. What do pirates do? so weak



Thanks for reading!
