Table Topics

Wow, we just had the most amazing time. I ordered these cards called Table Topics and we've just been doing some. Jenny had some amazing answers that I need to share. This may be my longest post ever. I wrote down as much as I could. I'm mostly only including Jenny's answers here since they are the most amusing - although some were amazingly intelligent.

Question: Why do you think people do or say mean things to each other?
Jenny - Jealousy.
Reagan - Because they have ugly hair.

Question: Which of your 5 senses would you lease like to give up?
Jenny - I would miss all the fun things I could see. Actually I would miss tasting my noodles the most.
Reagan - I would miss my grandma.

Question: What are the most important rights every person should have?
Jenny - To be able to have friends.
Lee - The right to shoot stupid people.

Question: What is a good loser, and are you one?
Jenny - No, I am not a loser.
Lee - Jenny had the right answer.

Question: Who has the power to shape your ideas and beliefs?
Jenny - I would say me.

Question: What would you like to be doing in 10 years?
Jenny - I would like to be teaching.
I then informed her she wouldn't be old enough for that in 10 years, so she revised it to being head cheerleader.
Jo-Jo - I would like to be on a cruise to Alaska with all my children and grandchildren.
Lee - I ain't going on a cruise ship with ice sharks. I would like to be President of the United States.

Question: If you could master one instrument, what would you choose?
Jenny - Microphone.

Question: What family or school rule would you most like to change?
Jenny - I would like to act crazy and not have rules.

Question: When you're having a bad day, what do you do to feel better?
Jenny - Ask to do something fun to make it gooder.

Question: What skill would you like to have someday?
Jenny - To be able to do splits.

Question: Would you rather live for a week in the past or the future?
Jenny - Past so I could make better things happen in the past.

Question: Would you rather be spanked or grounded?
Jenny - Grounded. I would rather be in my room than be hurt.
Lee - Grounded because I would kill whoever spanked me and go to jail.

Question: Would you travel into space if you could?
Jenny - No, I don't want to be hit by the rocks.
Lee - H-E-double hockeysticks no. Jenny, you are right, and you are so smart.

Question: Would you rather be a leader or a follower?
Jenny - A follower because the leader at school has to hold the door for everyone.

Question: Would you stick by your friend if he/she became disfigured?
Jenny - Yes. I wouldn't be mean because now you're ugly.

Question: What would you like to be famous for someday?
Jenny - Singing so I can get all my energy out and go to sleep.

Question: What special talent would you like to have?
Jenny - Be able to walk on a balance beam so that if there's a ride at Carowinds where I have to be careful I'll be ready.

Question: Why would you rather be a boy or a girl?
Jenny - A girl because I like the way the hairbows look with fancy decorations and fancy outfits.
Jenny's recommended answer for Daddy - Because boys rule and girls drool.

Question: What qualities do you look for in friends?
Jenny - I like friends who respect me and trust me and keep secrets and won't pass them on.
Lee - Obedience.

Question: Is space exploration important?
Jenny - No, because all you see is earth, the moon, and a bunch of nasty old rocks. I don't care about all the stuff that's floating around.

Question: What would be the best and worst things about being a twin?
Jenny - The worst would be that she would follow me around and be a copycat. The best would be that I could see what I look like in my clothes without a mirror. Also, she would understand me and speak English, not Spanish.

The final, most amazing question: When is it okay to lie?
Jenny - When you're in a big conversation and they say I'm gonna kill you if you don't tell the truth but maybe you killed their father so you have to lie to them.

That is seriously what she said. And repeated three times so I could write it down correctly.
