Thanks..lol, If I showed up with a pair of socks to a movie we were all at, the ramifications the next day at work might be something I could never recover from...lol. Most of the asshats I work with are about as Type A as you can find. I'm considered somewhat of a bookworm and more introspective.....aka...a nerd to most of the crew...lol. I'll give you a quick example of how much I respect and admire the guys in my division even though they are pretty much merciless. Back in 2011 I scored a VIP ticket for Mr. King's Dallas, TX event. I managed to get in via phone at work and bought the ticket over the phone. As soon as I hung up after confirming my information, I was obviously very excited about it and told my best friend/co-worker, Travis, who sits at the desk across from mine, just stared blankly at me having no comprehension about how cool of a thing this was to me. He eventually just laughed and asked if meeting a book author was actually going to be the highlight of my life? I told him, yes, it absolutely was. He told me I was a sad, sad person..lol Fast forward to the day before I was to leave for Dallas. I come back from lunch, there's a card on my desk addressed to "Bookworm Douchebag". I carefully open the card. The contents? $200.00 in cash and a gift card for $50.00 to Cracker Barrel. An anonymous note inside the card said "We all hate you and have no idea why you would drive to Dallas to meet a book author, but you and your wife have a good time, since we've all already had a good time with her.".....That's the kind of guys I work with. I was blown away to the point of being speechless which is rare for me at work. I showed the note to my wife, who has met most of these guys several times over the years, she made me keep the card and note it cracked her up so much.Awesome post/answers! LOL on #2 and #6 ... and great answer on #7.
I loved trivial pursuit and kicked azz on it! We bought all these extra editions, and one of them was sports. I played against my husband and his friend, and I won! They were pissed.
...now here's how stupid I am...(please, I know you already have totaled up your own amount of GNT dumbness)...I have heard of Cumberbatch, but not MARTIN Freeman...I defaulted to Morgan...lessee....
...I think I've got it now by golly, one of these is not like the others...
I liked the sports edition also. None of us could ever beat my best friend's dad in high school. He was the best sports trivia person I've ever met. It was spooky how much he knew.
Only thing I recognized Martin Freeman from was the FX series based on the movie "Fargo". His character on that show is quirky as hell, kind of like William H. Macy's character from the movie. I didn't much care for Cumberbund-batch in the new Stark Trek movie, didn't think he did the role of Khan justice. I just don't get it what the big deal is with Cumberbatch....now here's how stupid I am...(please, I know you already have totaled up your own amount of GNT dumbness)...I have heard of Cumberbatch, but not MARTIN Freeman...I defaulted to Morgan...lessee....

It's the drier and the microwave for me in winter.

1. Do you ever go on the fridge in your friend’s house and get yourself something to drink or do you ask for something?
I probably would not even ask for something - just wait until they offer something.
2. Do you bring some socks with you when you are invited for a movie in your friend’s house so you can put of your shoes?
In Canada I notice the custom is to remove shoes when going into someone's house, but it never occurred to me to bring extra socks.

4. Which is your favorite Columbo episode?
Wow - I cannot remember - that is how it has been since I saw that show - let me guess - the one where he scratches his head, acts dumb, but then solves the crime by the end of the show?
5. Benedict Cumberbatch or Martin Freeman? Which one do you like better?
Don't even know who these people are, but I will pick the first one, as his name is so weird.
6. Which electronic thingy annoys you the most at home? My smoke detector - it goes off as it is located too close to the heat of the oven when you open the door, even if there is no smoke.
7. Which thing to you think reminds you the most of being an SK fan in your daily life? I sometimes see the number 19 and remember it has a special significance.
8. Which website except the SKMB lifts your mood when you are sad? I can't think of another - well maybe BigFish games.
9. Did you ever traveled America from east to west / west to east? Is this on your bucket list? If I had the money I would travel, but not just "America" - when you say this do you mean the United States? (because my country, Canada, is also part of North America). Andy, my husband, calls the States "America", too!
10. Do you like to play board games/party games for example Monopoly, Phase 10 etc.
I liked Trivial Pursuit many years ago, and still enjoy trivia games.

1. Do you ever go on the fridge in your friend’s house and get yourself something to drink or do you ask for something?
I ask at least the first time whenever I'm not in my own home.
2. Do you bring some socks with you when you are invited for a movie in your friend’s house so you can put of your shoes?
I almost always wear socks and almost always take my shoes off at the door.

Not a term, but a sentence: "Wer fremde Sprachen nicht kennt, weiss nichts von seiner eigenen." Author: Goethe
4. Which is your favorite Columbo episode?
I don't remember them well enough. There was one where he kept a car from starting at a critical time by putting a potato in the exhaust pipe, but you didn't know that until the end of the show.
5. Benedict Cumberbatch or Martin Freeman? Which one do you like better?
I don't know either one, but I like Morgan Freeman. We hope to see the newest Cumberbatch movie soon, the one about cracking Enigma.

TV remote when it runs low on battery.
7. Which thing to you think reminds you the most of being an SK fan in your daily life?
"Is there hope?" "There's Mount Hope."

My blog site, I guess, because I get constructive when I'm preparing an upload.
9. Did you ever traveled America from east to west / west to east? Is this on your bucket list?
Yes, and sure, I'd like to do it again sometime.
10. Do you like to play board games/party games for example Monopoly, Phase 10 etc.
Sure, when the opportunity arises. "Cards Against Humanity" is the newest enjoyment.

I would have been disappointed if nobody wrote that term.
He is sexy. Star Trek wasn't that great you are right.
He is mostly known as Sherlok in the first place (the BBC series). He was also really good in Imitation Game and In August in Osage County. 12 Years a slave wasn't bad either.
Martin Freeman plays Watson in the same BBC series.
