Finding your BBFF

November 21, 2008 |  by cool dad  |  um... ok

I’ll spill the beans on what I’m trying to do here. I thought it would be fun to ask a bunch of questions and then try to match each of you up with your BBFF: Best Blog Friend Forever!

Well, maybe you won’t become BFs, or even Fs, but it might be amusing to see who you most resemble here in the Cool Readership. Once all of the questions are posted, we’ll send the answers to our secret lab in Sheboygan, WI and hopefully learn who your kindred spirit in the blogosphere is!

Here are more scientifically-selected Qs:

  1. Have you ever jumped from a high place for a thrill (skydiving, bungee, rock diving…)?
  2. Do you have any tattoos?
  3. Do you play video games?
  4. Cookies or ice cream?
  5. Are you married?
  6. Who’s your favorite band?
  7. How many pairs of shoes do you own?
  8. Movie night or game night?
  9. Pizza or hamburgers?

    Hey, I've been looking for a new BBFF! Just kidding. Do I have a BBFF? Anyway…answers…

    1. Uh, no. That would not be thrilling.
    2. Again, no.
    3. And, no. Well, I did love Mario Brothers and Duck Hunt back in the day. And playing DDR at my friend Chelley's house was fun. But regularly? No.
    4. Cookies AND ice cream. Why choose? You can do cookies & cream ice crea. Or, three warm chocolate chip cookies with a scoop of vanilla. Mmmm…is it too early for dessert?
    5. Yup.
    6. Barenaked Ladies
    7. Maybe 10 – certainly not enough to be in the cool kids club. :(
    8. Tricky. Depends on who I'm with. In general, game night – more interactive fun. But movies are good, too!

  5. 1. Wish I would have gone skydiving in high school when I was brave enough and wanted to. But I did jump off a bridge into the river in Yosemite once, right next to the sign that said, “No Jumping”. Does that count?
    2. No
    3. No
    4. So hard to decide but, I’ll say cookies because ice cream might make me cold and I don’t like being cold.
