Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Get to Know

Get to Know Each Other Thread!

Hey everyone! So I got an idea where you can get to know other people on the CB! I thought it might be especially good for newer CBers, but older CBers are great too, and everyone in between. 

Here's how it will work. You'll fill out a simple form with questions on things you like/don't like. Then I'll try and make groups of 2-3, but the groups might end up a little bigger because I don't want anyone to be on their own. After you know who your group members are, take a look that their forms and see if you have much in common! Then tell your fellow group members that you're creating a thread where you can all chat together, or ask one of them to create the thread. You can even create a group name if you'd like and title your thread that name so everyone knows it's their group! 

 

I hope that made sense. 

Here's the form:

Favorite Hobbies: Minecraft, stayin' up late, swimmin' in the summer, callin' family, fashion, cats, writin', daydreamin' 'bout my crush, Mike Nesmith from The Monkees, a 1960's band, playin' video games (Sometimes I call 'em v-games), buildin' stuff in Minecraft, sleepin', dancin' in my room to music, singin' songwritin' mostly 'bout Minecraft, goin' on the CB, watchin' music videos, and makin' brownies. I can;t make cookies, 'cause the first time I did, I kinda didn't make 'em like they were supposed to. They weren't hard, instead they were crunchy. Don't trust me with cookies. Unless I've been makin' 'em for a while.

Favorite food: Do I have to choose?! I like brownies, pizza, tacos (Without lettuce), cheese quesidillas, cookies, apple pie, chocolate fudge, ice cream, Hershey's Sundae Pie (Super-good!!! You lizards should try 'em!), hot dogs, and other things, but my fave food out of all of 'em would have to be BBQ chips! I LUV BBQ chips!

Favorite book/book series: Ok, my fave book is probably Diary of A Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel. Or maybe it's Infinate Tuesday: Mike Nesmith's Autobiography! My dad had to look it over first, so if you get it, you might want your parents lok it over first...

Writing or Drawing?: Writin'! I can't draw, but I will admit that I've drawn a pretty good lightnin; bolt one time in a writin' notebook! The only thing that I CAN draw pretty well, is a Nyan Cat.

Favorite Color: Black and purple. They go well with ANY color. I REALLY like every color in thw WORLD, except if white, and red is the color of someone's eyes. *Shudders* That brings back some pretty bad memories...

Are there any CBers on this thread you feel like you know well?: I'm gonna say EVERYONE on the CB.

Are there any Cbers you feel like you don't know well?: Umm... I'm gonna say no.

Anything else?: I've had 'bout 15 or 16 crushes on SEVERAL different guys, startin' at age 3 or 4! My most recent ones are Mike Nesmith, and Kid Danger from Henry Danger.
