Icebreakers
Found this on a website:
If you were an animal, what would you be and why? I think I'd be a giraffe. I like being taller than everyone. Ooo - or a dolphin! No, wait, I'm afraid of the ocean. OK, a giraffe.
If you were in a cartoon, which one would you prefer being in? I always loved the Thundercats. Hmmm, but Mumra seriously freaked me out as a kid. And the Smurfs are blue. OK, I'd be Sunni Gummi's BFF.
What is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten? I don't really eat anything weird. I'm the worlds pickiest eater. I didn't learn to like pizza until I was over 10. How about the weirdest thing ever swallowed? (Insert joke here) The radioactive pill I had to take last year (twice) and will have to take in a little over a week. It's so funny - they bring in this really large box and inside is the pill. Don't get me wrong - it's a big pill, but it's not THAT big. Le sigh...
What?s the worst thing you did as a kid? I didn't do anything. I was an angel. OK, one time I ACCIDENTALLY threw a rock threw my brother's back windshield. 
Re: Icebreakers
If you were an animal, what would you be and why? A dog, more specifically, one of my dogs....Get to lounge around all day on the big bed (our spare bed is the dogs bed), lots of loves, get to play outside when its nice, and get nightime snuggles on the couch. (and get a grilled burger when mom forgets to run out and get dog food, like last night)
If you were in a cartoon, which one would you prefer being in? Alvin and the Chipmunks, was my favorite when I was little
What is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten? Rabbit, I was told it was chicken while at a friend's house when I was younger.
What?s the worst thing you did as a kid? I seriously never did anything intentially wrong. I am the ultimate rule follower. I am the kid that all my troublemaker friend's parent's wanted their kids to hang out with. I didn't start breaking any rules until I was a late teen.
If you were an animal, what would you be and why? i'd like to be a dog. specifically, a dog in my dog-loving family. dogs in the cheekyfam are very well loved and definitely spoiled
If you were in a cartoon, which one would you prefer being in? not a cartoon, but i totally loved batgirl/barbara gordon on the old school batman tv show.
What is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten? hmmmm . . . i'm super picky too (but not as picky as flecky) but i will try new things, especially when traveling. i think crocodile in australia wins the weirdest prize. or maybe fried pickles (which tasted more weird than crocodile to me, croc kinda does taste like chicken)
What?s the worst thing you did as a kid? i was not cheeky until i was much older but once after someone dropped something and yelled "jesus christ!" i repeated it immediately. i got a swat on the bottom and a time out. still not sure why the original person who "swore" didn't have to join me on the stairs . . . and i totally remember thinking that was totally unfair even though i was maybe three!
If you were an animal, what would you be and why? A cat. Because I want to be lazy and sleep all day.
If you were in a cartoon, which one would you prefer being in? Animaniacs.
What is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten? I don't eat weird stuff.
What?s the worst thing you did as a kid? When I was 3, my cousins and I were playing hide and seek in my grandmother's house. One of my cousins told me to hide in the shower, then she slammed the door and the glass broke. We got in sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much trouble.
If you were in a cartoon, which one would you prefer being in? The Jetsons. I want a machine to do my hair for me and get me dressed. I'm so bad at it. I also would love a robot to make my dinner and clean my house and who wouldn't want to drive a flying car? What is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten? I don't eat weird stuff either, but I was once tricked into eating Venison. BARF.
What?s the worst thing you did as a kid? I never did anything wrong either. i'd get grounded for things like rolling my eyes (which I apparently do so frequently that i don't even realize it!) and telling my big cousin he had girl hair. Once in Junior High I took a piece of candy from those candy things at the movie theatre and I ate it and was paranoid the rest of the day that I would get arrested.
If you were an animal, what would you be and why? I would want to be a dog, specifically my dog Cosmo
he had the perfect life and I always said to Dave in my next life I want to be Cosmo !
If you were in a cartoon, which one would you prefer being in? Which one would I want to be in, well I would say the Strawberry Shortcake one- life seems easy and perfect and must smell amazing !! haha
What is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten? Oh Boy-my Dad and Grampa were game hunters & fishermen so I have eaten a lot of stuff. Bear, eel, alligator, elk, phesant, frogs legs i could go on and on. I am so not a pickey eater as you can tell !
What?s the worst thing you did as a kid? pushed my brother down the stairs
If you were an animal, what would you be and why? This is a tough one for me. Part of me wants to say a wild horse because they seem so free to me and they are protected so people can't really hunt them like say a deer. Yet, they are also part of a herd/family group. So I guess I'll go with that.
If you were in a cartoon, which one would you prefer being in? Hmmm, I loved care bears and gummi bears so probably one of those two.
What is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten? Oh boy, weird food wise I"ve had bbq'd raccoon, wild boar, rattlesnake, buffalo. "Normal" foods in weird combos I like to eat some weird stuff - like quesadillas with cheese, pickles, and sunflower seeds...mmmm.
What?s the worst thing you did as a kid? Hmmm, what age does kid go up to? I'm going to go with nothing really because I was a good kid and always afraid to get in trouble. When I was in 8th grade, I 'dumped' some of my friends in an attempt to be cooler which I sometimes feel bad about - although one of them I "dumped" I didn't want to be friends with anyways and the other close friend I"m still friends with now (she actually did the same thing a little later...go figure). Although the next year my family moved, so I got karma payback I guess. I also dumped a couple boys in highschool just to date other guys (which I guess is better than cheating on them, but they didn't really see it that way).
