You like all the sort of movies I absolutely hate with a passion. My husband made me sit through Braveheart at a movie theatre when it came out. It was like a train wreck, I just couldn't look away but hated every minute of it LOL After that he always went to the movies by himself unless we all went to a Harry Potter movie as a family....
I don't like Lord of the rings, I don't like star wars and I hate Titanic too LOL

I can only presume then that you love Hallmark Christmas movies and every movie ever made starring Richard Gere or Sean Penn (sans Colors), since those are the movies I hate and we are opposites.

LOL don't know who they are and the only Christmas movies I like is the shoot your eye out and Christmas vacation
I love older Bollywood movies, especially all the ones from Yash Chopra ( he died) , and I love soap operas, Gordon Ramsey cooking shows, Great British baking show, murder mysteries, and Korean dramas, Chinese martial arts movies too and most of all Supernatural

Just not very many American movies. I do like a few , Mr and Mrs Smith , I like Brad Pit , some of the old Clint Eastwood movies too
Currently rewatching Gossip Girl, one of the best soaps of all times

btw we are not all that opposite, I am a Leo too ....lol
 
What time should we give him 'til??
Now.
Have you ever woken up somewhere and did not know how you got there?
What was your favorite movie character, real or fictional?
What kind of pet did you have and you said "Never again!"
When was the first time you punched somebody in the face?
When did you first get properly drunk?

Several times, even if I wasn't drinking.

Han Solo or Mad Max.

100 mice I raised for a psychology experiment.

My "best buddy" watched three jocks beat me up and did nothing. his nose is still a bit crooked.

It was graduation night. My Dad bought me a half gallon of peach brandy to keep me from going out partying with my friends. After forty years, I still gag if I see a bottle!

1.) Yes. More than likely in College. There were many nights like that.

2.) Jack Reacher. Splitting hairs here the Alan Richson Prime version, not the Tom Cruise version.

3.) None. I never had a pet as a child, and only dogs as an adult.

4.) In College, but it was in a ring. We were boxing.

5.) In College. I didn't drink before that. Remember the movie Animal House? To me that movie was like Dragnet. The stories were true. The names were changed to protect the innocent. I knew all of those people, and I was half of them.

1. I don't think so
2. Dean Winchester
3. I love most animals, and have only had dogs for pets and a snake once , my mother had a cat I didn't like, so probably I would not have a cat
4. elementary school, there was this bully that would just ram into the girls and make them drop their sandwich or whatever and sometimes they fell to the ground, he did it to me and I got up, ran after him and punched him the face, this was maybe third grade or so
5. highschool , no drinking age in Germany so I think maybe 15 or so ? I had a birthday part and we all jugged beer to see who could jug a large beer mug the fastest

#5 - You're probably not going to believe this story, but it's absolutely 100% true. First time I got drunk, I was a HS senior. It happened the evening while attending a weekend conference. I was selected from the senior class and George was selected from the junior class to represent our conservation club at this overnight conference. We had two young teachers serve as our chaperones. That night the teachers came to our hotel room door and asked if we wanted anything before they had a night on the town. These teachers were young guys probably in their mid-20s. George and I handed over around $10 and 10 minutes later the teachers showed up at our room with a bottle of Southern Comfort. I got so plastered that I passed out and slept in my own puke all night. George and I never told the story at school.
 
Yep, lost my car for a little while then too.
Josey Wales
Never
7th grade, first real fight,, dude messing with my girl friend. I punched him in the nose and he went out like a light. Hell I thought I killed him
17, got off work and went to play basketball with a bunch from work. Somebody got a bunch of vodka. Let me tell you not only is grape vodka NASTY, itll make you puke
 
1. Went to a bar in Krakow with some Balkan contractors and woke up in a small apartment bedroom without clothing. I walked out into the living room in the buff and found myself all alone. As I stood there baffled and hungover, the door opened and a woman in her mid-40's walked in. She spoke American but with a thick polish accent and was holding a clothes basket. She looked me over and said "I washed clothes" and held out the basket, then she looked me up and down and said "go shower dirty boy". When I was in the shower a much younger woman walked in and said "mama wants you to get dressed and go, but she will you feed you first". I still don't know how I got there of what happened between my arrival and waking up, but the food was really good.

2. Somewhere in the realm of John Wick or Benjamin Martin or Captain Miller.

3. Not a pet guy. Do not buy into the whole "fur baby" culture whatsoever and consider it to be in the same category as being nonbinary or asexual or having a man bun. So I guess every pet falls into the never or never again category for me.

4. 3rd grade, guy named Darcy. He made a crack about my mother, I punched him in the face 5-6 times before the teacher pulled me off of him. Had to serve in school suspension for the rest of the week and meet with a counselor weekly for the remainder of the semester.

5. 3rd grade. A friend of mine and I shop lifted a 6 pack of beer and some beef jerky from a small grocery store before having a sleep over at his house. The beer turned out to be malt liquor with a high alcohol content. 2 bottles was enough to get me thoroughly buzzing, the 3rd bottle put me to sleep. We never got caught.

I want to know more about the lost car and where you found it!!?
 
Have you ever woken up somewhere and did not know how you got there?
More times than I care to admit :p

What was your favorite movie character, real or fictional? Travis McGee. I'm a book/reading guy, but there was a movie, so I'll skate on a technicality.

What kind of pet did you have and you said "Never again!"
I had a bird( parakeet), once, briefly.

When was the first time you punched somebody in the face?
When I was 10, a girl tried to steal my bike "because you can't hit hit a girl". She was wrong.

When did you first get properly drunk?
Sometime in 1978, the exact date somehow eludes me.
 
1) Nope
2) Tom Selleck
3) none
4) Never have
5)When I was 16. My brother was on leave from the Navy . It was eve of Thanksgiving. Mom and Dad had gone out. So he proceed to make me a mixed drink of whatever we had in house. When Mom and Dad came home I was hiliarously drunk...They were not happy! They were not impressed!

Me and my girl friend at the time, turned out to be my ex wife, went to a Christmas party from my job. I was 18 at the time. After the meal they had an open bar and I started drinking mixed drinks. They ran out of liquor and I switched to beer, BIG MISTAKE. I got her home and started for my house and got maybe 5 miles on the route, went starlight at a 3 way stop and drove around somebody's house. Got stuck trying to drive over a shrub which lifted the wheels up enough to stop traction. So I started walking and some guy picked me up and dropped me off at my GF buddies apartment. Her and her hubs got a couple other guys and we rode around and found my car and pushed it to where we could drive it. I went back to their apartment and slept it off. Woke up and thought how the hell did I get here.

Not my finest moment

Sorry, I have never been that drunk. I have a bad reaction to alcohol of all kinds. I can drink one beer or mixed drink (but not for decades now), or even just a few sips, and just want to sleep and I will have a hang over the next day.
 
Sorry I was slow this morning.

2. I grew up about 200 miles away but returned as a teenager.
3. Yes and no.
4. I'm already there, but my childhood town I would not want to move back to.
5. Not my childhood town specifically, but the county/area. I still have family there.
