AMA I'm Varun - Ask Me Anything

[Till Valhalla]

give women's cricket a fair share in popularity with respect to men's cricket

I don't think it is something we can just say and it happens.
But we can definitely show fair share of interest and respect to them.

If you had a Meeseeks box, what would you do with it?

 

[Aislabie]

Have you any post-rock recommendations I should check out?

 

[Deleted member 46200]

What books on your shelf are begging to be read.

What do you do if you can’t sleep at night? Do you count sheep? Toss and Turn? Try to get up and do something productive.

When making an entrance in to a party, do you make your presence known? Do you slip in and look for someone you know? Do you sneak in quietly and find a safe spot to roost.

What is the strangest thing you believed as a child.

What’s the ultimate role play for you.

What is one guilty pleasure you enjoy too much to give up.

What was the most recent compliment you’ve received and savoured.

What do you think about more than anything else.

What celebrity do you think would be the best in bed.

What’s something that amazes you.

What position do you sleep in.

Hickies: major yes or no way

Where is the strangest place you’ve ever had sex.

What’s your all-time favourite town or city.

If you could eliminate one weakness or limitation in your life, what would it be.

If you could restore one broken relationship, which would it be.

If you had to change your first name, what would you change it to.

What do you consider unforgivable.

Are you going to ask sweet (little) Caroline more questions.

Of course. But that's true for any change on a large scale.

I've been busy. I'll reply to the new questions tomorrow. So sorry!!

[Varun]

If you had a Meeseeks box, what would you do with it?

take two strokes off my golf game

A Meeseek needs to be given a task which won't take long enough for it to be a homicidal maniac, so this is a little tricky. The quickest way seems to be ask him to help me make the maximum possible profit on Blackjack or Poker in a casino in 24 hours. Don't see how that can get wrong at all.[DOUBLEPOST=1502103068][/DOUBLEPOST]

Have you any post-rock recommendations I should check out?

You'll have to tell me what you already listen to.

 

[zimrahil]

How long have you been playing golf?

what is your handicap?

Which course do you tend to play at?

Who is best looking female golfer?

Ever had a hole in one?

what is best gross score ?

 

[Aislabie]

You'll have to tell me what you already listen to.

Here y'are:

Okay then, well my main recommendation is the YouTube channel wherepostrockdwells - they upload full albums every few hours and if I'm on my laptop I just leave that on in the background all the time.

Those albums that really stand out I then download onto my phone to listen to at work. They are:

• Alderaan - Infinite Paths
• Eleventh Vibration - Illusions
• God Is An Astronaut - Age of the Fifth Sun
• God Is An Astronaut - All Is Violent, All Is Bright
• If These Trees Could Talk - The Bones of a Dying World
• Paint The Sky Red - Not All Who Wonder Are Lost
• We Lost The Sea - Departure Songs

The two in bold are particular favourites.

 

[Varun]

What books on your shelf are begging to be read.

The Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie
Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf
In Search of Lost Time: Swann's Way by Marcel Proust
A trio of novels by Gabriel Garcia Marquez too.

What do you do if you can’t sleep at night? Do you count sheep? Toss and Turn? Try to get up and do something productive.

I've done both counting sheep and tossing and turning at different occasions. If neither works, I listen to music or take a quick stroll across the house.

When making an entrance in to a party, do you make your presence known? Do you slip in and look for someone you know? Do you sneak in quietly and find a safe spot to roost.

Slipping in and looking for someone I know for sure.

What is the strangest thing you believed as a child.

That god exists.

Tough to think of, indeed. Can't recall any beliefs that wouldn't be normal for a kid. Probably that blonde people had to get their hair colored that way, it wasn't natural.

What’s the ultimate role play for you.

I've no idea.......yet.

What is one guilty pleasure you enjoy too much to give up.

Binging on all sorts of fried, junk, street food that will inevitably make me sick the next morning.

What was the most recent compliment you’ve received and savoured.

.....that I'm the best. And an acquaintance thanked me for being rational on a Whatsapp group, so that. I don't really like to indulge in it though.

What do you think about more than anything else.

Women

Subconsciously? Women, music, checking my phone (harsh realities?) Consciously? I don't honestly know.

What celebrity do you think would be the best in bed.

Salma Hayek.

What’s something that amazes you.

The intricacy of the world, and of the universe. That there are levels of detail in nearly everything we see and observe, from constituents of an architectural marvel to the very atoms that make up. The world is composite, and yet is all fits in and works somehow. It exists!

What position do you sleep in.

Prostrate all days!

Hickies: major yes or no way

Major yes.

Where is the strangest place you’ve ever had sex.

Haven't had sex yet. The good ol' Indian prudishness of my last girlfriend dictated that we take it slow. And we broke up in a year or so.

What’s your all-time favourite town or city.

So far, Pondicherry in India. The part of the town facing the sea, called the White Town, is done in French architectural styles (owing to the French occupation of the town during the colonial era), and it looks beautiful. I especially admire the criss-cross structure of roads, all of which end facing the sea, and the fact that the entire town is walkable on foot. Here's a photo

Spoiler

From the places I haven't visited yet, I'm excited about Tokyo, Marrakesh, Amsterdam, Rome, Athens, Santorini, and of course Geneva, to name a few.

If you could eliminate one weakness or limitation in your life, what would it be.

The frequent lack of motivation to work, which also leads to procrastination.

If you could restore one broken relationship, which would it be.

Last ex. Don't really care about the relationship anymore, but I do realize it ended a much longer friendship too, which I'd like to restore.

If you had to change your first name, what would you change it to.

Nurav, the reverse of my real name. Why? Because it sounds cool.

What do you consider unforgivable.

Harm enacted to other people out of pure malevolence.

Are you going to ask sweet (little) Caroline more questions.

Yes, answering your (so many!!) questions makes the AMA worth it, I'll be more than willing to return the favour. [DOUBLEPOST=1502136690][/DOUBLEPOST]

This is going to be a downer. I don't play golf. The answer I struck out was a Rick and Morty reference.

I commend you so admirable and a true gentleman!
