Lying. I could go with smaking but I would rather someone chew with their mouth open while telling me the truth than friggin lying.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I snort when I laugh. Like all the time. Eh it's not much but it's the best thing I can think of!

purplepeopleeater11 · October 2010

All time fav movie?
All time? That's rough. I'd second you on Dirty Dancing or go with The Breakfast Club...I love me some brat pack.

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
Alternative/Rock - Three Days Grace or Nirvana

biggest pet peeve?
Chewing with your mouth open. It's not about how it looks, it's the sound. If you can chew with your mouth open silently, more power to you. It's the smacking that does me in.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?
He puts in as much effort into our relationship as I do. I never feel like it's me trying harder than him.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I sneeze with my mouth shut.

heyimbren · October 2010

All time fav movie?
Do I really have to pick one?! I never get sick of Little Mermaid & Beauty and the Beast. But I also love Star Wars and Indiana Jones.

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
I honestly like all kinds. Anberlin & Taylor Swift

biggest pet peeve?
People cancelling plans.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?
His sincerity.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself
In HS, I was the debate champ for my region.

CASK85 · October 2010

All time fav movie?

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (the first one)

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?

This is a hard question. . . I love so much different music. I will go with folk/jamband/bluegrass (I know thats more than one genre) and Sim Redmond Band as my favorite band. If anyone is from Upstate/Central NY you've probably heard of them, otherwise, probably not.

biggest pet peeve?

Slow walkers

What makes you love your SO more than anything?

His drive to make himself and us better -- he's always thinking about us and our future

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?

I know 16 digits of Pi by memory. . .

Also I have a huge koi fish tattoo on my right side.

bethsmiles · October 2010

All time fav movie?
I'm gonna do top 5 because its too hard to name just one!
1) How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
2) Silence of the Lambs
3) Beauty and the Beast
4) Inception
5) Harry Potter (all of them! And yes I'm counting them as one movie lol)

Fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
I love all music. I listen to literally every single genera. But my favorite (right now anyway) is Country and my favorite singer is a toss up between Josh Turner (I LOVE his deep sexy voice) and Brad Paisley (I love his style and lyrics)
Biggest pet peeve?
People who cancel plans at the last minute. It drives me crazy!
What makes you love your SO more than anything?
He is so amazing its hard to pick just one. But I think my favorite is that he loves me I think as close to unconditionally as a person can. Everyone tells me that its obvious just from the way he looks at me that he really really loves me. He treats my like a princess and would do anything for me.
Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I am terrified of birds. I mean really terrified. I think it has to do with when I was 5 my dog killed a crow and I guess crows are very protective creatures and our house was surrounded by probably a hundred crows for like a week. It was really like something out of the Birds. So yeah I really freak out around birds!

Wrkn925 · October 2010

All time fav movie?
I have a different answer all the time. I'm saying Fried Green Tomatoes right now.
fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
I'm not crazy into music, and I'm off the wall when I pick something. I've been listening to the same Lenka CD for like 6 months.
biggest pet peeve?
People who scream or talk really loudly.
What makes you love your SO more than anything?
We're far from perfect, but he makes an honest, obvious effort to make us better every day.
Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I smoke a pack of Camels a day and have zero interest in quitting.

heyimbren · October 2010

Beth, you and I are actually the same person apparently. I also forgot that I love (almost) all Kate Hudson movies and Harry Potter. I really can't pick one! I also dislike birds. Oh and butterflies.

bethsmiles · October 2010

Bren! I totally forgot about Indiana Jones (minus #4 in my world that movie does not exist!) and Star Wars! I love those movies too! I am such a movie geek. I love movies, its so hard to pick my favorites!!

Has anyone heard Eye Candy by Josh Turner because I am addicted to that song right now!

PaigeMcC · October 2010

All time fav movie? The Little Mermaid. No I'm not kidding.

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band? I don't have a fav. I listen to eveything. Although I loves me some of that cute lil Taylor Swift and I also loves me some crazy arse Lady Gaga.

biggest pet peeve? Poor driving manners. Let the person out. Wave if I let you in my lane. Don't cut me off.

What makes you love your SO more than anything? He's kindred spirit. There are no words to tell you what makes me love him. It's just him. His spirit. His soul. His kindness. His goofiness. Everything about him makes me love him more every day.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself? I have a weird phobia of "un secured heights"(solid, secure heights are good). If it doesn't look solid (a glass wall is NOT solid. Gaps between walls and balconies are NOT solid. Gaps in stairs are NOT solid) then I get panicked. I can't help it. It's random and weird.

HeartOverMind · October 2010

All time fav movie? Gone with the Wind *swoon*
fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band? Ahh.. I have so many favorites for genre and singer/band. It depends what mood I'm in. I love oldies, classic rock, classical, country, pop, r&b, etc. Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, The Everley Brothers, Thousand Foot Krutch, Vertical Horizon, Billy Currington, Elvis Presley, etc.
biggest pet peeve? Stupid people.
What makes you love your SO more than anything? Despite his "I'm the man" attitude, he really would do anything to make me happy; he always wants to see me smile.
Something weird/off the wall about yourself? I still know all the helping verbs by memory. I learned them in 7th grade.

desertsun · October 2010

All time fav movie?

So hard to pick just one! Princess Bride and Love, Actually

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?

I don't have a specific genre, but I love Brandi Carlile, Taylor Swift, Tori Amos

biggest pet peeve?

Fakeness/hypocrisy. Just be who you are. You are what you do, not what you say.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?

We don't have to talk all the time. He is my calm/peaceful place. And, he's really genuinely generous.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?

My husband has been friends with a guy from Michigan since before he met me. I'm also from Michigan. This guy and his fiance recently moved from Phoenix to Tucson, and we Michiganders taught the others euchre. Now we get together regularly to go out for dinner, then go back to their place for wine and euchre. Also, they're getting married on our one year anniversary. I them.

[Deleted User] · October 2010

All time fav movie?
Scent of a Woman

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
80's is my fav genre for sure. Hank Williams Jr is my fav musician though (I'm coooouuuntry LOL)

biggest pet peeve?
People that are rude and complain about stupid things to the waiter/waitress at a restaurant.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?
As cliche as it sounds, his heart. He is the sweetest, nicest man I've ever known. And not just to me - he is nice to just about everyone, which makes me love him even more.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
FI thinks this is strange - when watching any sort of scary movie, I absolutely, no matter what, have to have my feet off the floor. Even if we're at a theater. I have this weird thought that if my feet are touching the floor during a horror flick that whatever it is will come out and grab me LOL

[Deleted User] · October 2010

Desert! I looove Love, Actually

I can feel it in my fingers....I can feel in my toes...

CASK85 · October 2010

Love, Actually is for sure one of my faves too

Every Christmas BF and I watch our favorite Christmas movie together. Mine is "Love, Actually". . . his is "Die Hard". LOL

Beads921 · October 2010

All time fav movie? I really do not have one. I've never been a huge movie fan. I like them, but usually only watch each one once.

Fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band? I don't have a favourite genre. Depending on my mood I enjoy anything from country to heavy metal. Not a fan of classical, jazz, oldies, light rock, etc, though. Favourite band is Alexisonfire (thanks to BF), although I currently also have a big thing for Against Me!, 30 Seconds to Mars, and Rise Against.

Biggest pet peeve? People that smack their lips and/or chew with their mouths open and/or make funny noises with their mouths in general really piss me off. I also hate it when people don't get back to you when you call/email with a simple question.

What makes you love your SO more than anything? Well...lots of things. Aside from the fact that he is my best friend in the whole wide world, he's very goal oriented and very determined. He goes for what he wants and doesn't stop until he gets it, but still manages to maintain a healthy balance in his life.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself? People grinding their teeth nearly gives me a panic attack. The sound drives me batty, and actually makes me cry after a while

Heartovermind - Women are bad drivers. We're simply not as aware as men when it comes to driving, and although men are often more reckless, they are still better drivers.

GreenPepperBurger · October 2010

All time fav movie?
I'm a huge movie buff. But I never ever get tired of American Beauty. I can watch it again as soon as it finishes.

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
I'm very generic when it comes to music and mainly love Top 40 songs. But I do have a soft spot for big band, swing and showtunes. I also love Fiona Apple and Blink 182.

biggest pet peeve?
Ignorance and bigotry. If we're going to get more specific, people who spit and the sound of silverware scraping against dishes.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?
He makes me laugh harder than anyone I know. He makes me feel as if I'm the only woman on earth.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
If there is silence, I will do something very loud to break the tension. Mainly just shout nonsense like I'm a mental patient.

calindi · October 2010

All time fav movie?
Dirty Dancing probably tops the list, but Beauty & the Beast and Aladdin are definitely up there.

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
Spanish pop - Pereza

biggest pet peeve?
I'm going to be a bit of a beeyoch and say not capitalizing words when you type. Drives me freaking nuts - it doesn't take even a second longer to hit "shift". I'm not singling you out for this survey, I swear - my boyfriend absolutely refuses to capitalize anything when he types. Makes me murderous!

What makes you love your SO more than anything?
He's a kid at heart - we have the most fun when we're just being goofy together, and he totally loves doing cheesy things like having Christmas in July (his idea, actually) or going to Disney on weekends.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I can move my eyes independently of the other.

heyimbren · October 2010

Cate, I normally don't capitalize letters when I type! But I do on here. This is probably the only place I do that (besides e-mail).

Sooo... for all you Beauty and the Beast fans, how many have bought it on blu ray/DVD? I just watched it last night

Posted by heyimbren[/QUOTE]

My BF got it for me for our anniversary. It was pretty much the best present ever! I made him watch it with me that night lol.

Blue & White · October 2010

All time fav movie? RENT, I think. There are a lot of others too. I love singing, and I love stories of true, unadulterated love.

Fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band? Angry girl singers, mostly...Fav singer currently is Kate Voegele, but it does change a fair amount

Biggest pet peeve? Lying to get something you don't deserve. Or thinking you deserve special treatment. If my syllabus says no, then the answer is no (I'm a teacher, haha...we're nitpicky)

What makes you love your SO more than anything? We have so much fun together. I know that's really simple and boring, but it's true. We also both value family, money, and love to about the same degrees. We see eye to eye on a lot.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself? I'm really bad at answering the "where are you from?" question. In fact, we were at an amusement park the other day and one of the ride operators asked me and I go "umm...." before my answer. People really don't realize how loaded that question is when you've just finished school and have lived in like 5 places in the last 10 years.

Elle1036 · October 2010

All time fav movie?
Love Actually or Juno. It's too close to call.

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
I like a lot of different music, but my default is always pop/rock from the 90s. As evidence, my favorite bands are the Goo Goo Dolls and the Gin Blossoms.

biggest pet peeve?
Bad grammar and narrow-mindedness. Funny how many people seem to exhibit both of those.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?
He's kind to absolutely everyone.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I can recite several full chapters from the Harry Potter series from memory. I'm a total geek.

breezerb · October 2010

All time fav movie? probably sound of music or mary poppins

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band? I like top 40 or country. I have way too many faves but right now I am loving Paramore and David Guetta

biggest pet peeve? bad drivers

What makes you love your SO more than anything? He tries to be all macho and refuses most PDA but when we get home he will hold my hand and show his romantic side

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I am an only child and have never wanted siblings. I am glad that I don't have any brothers or sisters. Most people don't understand it but I loved having everything (including my parents) all to myself.

People from Michigan are pretty much honorary Canadians... even if only for their Euchre abilities... and their love of hockey...

What is a Saguaro? It sounds like a mythical creature

musikbx · October 2010

All time fav movie?
I'm not a huge movie buff, I haven't even seen Star Wars.

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band?
As a musician, it is difficult for me to answer this question. I enjoy playing and listening to many different genres, from Alaetoric to Zydeco ;-)

biggest pet peeve?
Excessive or annoying sounds. Chewing and breathing sounds, people speaking loudly around me, people in apartments above/below/next to me watching loud movies late at night, the list goes on.

What makes you love your SO more than anything?
He's a smarty pants! He always has something interesting to say, and he makes me think.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself?
I've eaten jellyfish, chicken feet and raw pig ears... all before eating my first kiwi (a food I'm now obsessed with)

loves2shop4shoes · October 2010

All time fav movie? The Shawshank Redemption

fav music genre and who is your fav singer/band? I like everything, but Lifehouse is probably my favorite band. They've never made a song I didn't like.

biggest pet peeve? Spitting

What makes you love your SO more than anything? He's the most wonderful person I've ever known. He's sweet, funny, handsome, smart, patient, hard-working, and has a heart of gold. He treats me like a queen, even when I don't deserve it. He always wants to make me happy and goes out of his way to do so. I know that one day he will be the father to my children that I always wished for growing up. He has a beautiful soul and makes me feel like the luckiest person on the face of the planet because he chose me. My only complaints after three years are his persistent farting in his sleep and his refusal to put the toilet seat back down.

Something weird/off the wall about yourself? I'm terrified of the sound made by cracking ice. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me.
