GTKY: Daily Question Thread - May 2023 Edition


Recommended Posts

I'm away this weekend and taking an extra day, so here's questions to cover the time.

 

Question, Friday May 5th.

Today is National No Pants day. Do you plan to take part?

 

Question, Saturday May 6th.

The beginning of May around here is generally the beginning of real spring like activities as the weather gets consistently warm. That of course varies depending on where you are, so what what is the first weekend of May like where you are and are you planning any outdoor activities?

 

Question, Sunday May 7th.

Race day!  This will be the first day of racing at my local(ish) motorsports track.  It's also the Miami GP for F1, and probably a few thousand other races around the globe. Do you watch or participate in any sort of competitive activity? (be it racing, traditional sports, untraditional sport, speed painting competitions, beer pong, etc)

 

 

Question, Monday May 8th.

Hobby check in time.  We're a week into May.  If you have hobby plans for May, how are they going?  If you don't, have you gotten any ad hoc hobbying in? (In general I'm referring to the hobbies normally discussed on these forum, so relating to miniatures.  But feel free to also include any other hobbies you may partake in.)

No. While it is probably warm enough here, I like my job and prefer not to lose it and/or get arrested.

It is? Oh darn, I thought that was yesterday.

 

I am well known to walk naked though the fields, or at least pantsless. Usually it's because we've just forded a stream of some sort and are waiting for everything to dry in the wind. I tie the pant legs around my neck and just go for it. Once the green grass is up, I'll forgo the shoes, too. Walking naked enhances my communion with nature, especially since the wind and the earth are my elements.

Probably not. It's finally warm enough here I could but I'm fencing and I prefer not being naked when I'm crawling brush.

Question May the 4th.

Shockingly, a Star Wars related question from me..... So, if you are a fan of Star Wars, what what is one thing you like the most about it?
If you are not a Star Wars fan, what is one thing about it don't you like?  And if you've never even watched anything Star Wars related, is there are particular reason why you haven't?

 

 

 

I like the original movies, saw a few of the pre/sequels, nice movies, found Jar Jar irritating but like others said, it doesn't ruin it for me.

I'm more of a Star Trek fan, but I like Star Wars as well, I see no reason why I would have to choose a side.

What I like most? The Imperial March is a great soundtrack, love the battlescenes with the At At's and ships.

Race day!  This will be the first day of racing at my local(ish) motorsports track.  It's also the Miami GP for F1, and probably a few thousand other races around the globe. Do you watch or participate in any sort of competitive activity? (be it racing, traditional sports, untraditional sport, speed painting competitions, beer pong, etc)

Hobby check in time.  We're a week into May.  If you have hobby plans for May, how are they going?  If you don't, have you gotten any ad hoc hobbying in?

You Barbarians!

It's this weekend actually, we both took a week off.

We will probably go walk in nature one of these days.

Nope. I may watch a kickboxing match sometime but generally I don't care about watching sports. I used to practice martial arts ( Kung Fu/Judo/Kickboxing and MMA) but lately I haven't.

We play board games..

I paint minis. I'm on a roll lately so expect more to come soon.

Also I like to cook, you can see my WOOF FOOD LOGS appearing in the Randomness Thread every now and then.

I may observe a brief moment of silence this morning.

Warm and raining here, but reloading in the garage for the Cowboy Action Shooting season to start.

I didn't know this, but I am now! Pants are overrated, and such a day should be observed when you are out of work on medical leave.

I literally campaign against the tyranny of pants, and it's more than warm enough that even my mother would put shorts on in this weather.  Only people who are forced to wear pants due to their jobs (for safety reasons, or because apparently shorts aren't professional in front of a judge) should be wearing such 😛

Probably start building the fox fort again, because this gets to be to the point where we just stay inside, or spend as little time as we can outside, at least during the height of the day.  Mornings and evenings we try to be out for the occasional walk, when it isn't stupidly hot outside.

I don't really do the sports thing.  Used to do autocross, but couldn't afford it.  As for anything competitive, I've been tempted to enter a few painting competitions lately....

*laughs nervously* They're going.....  Well, we're attempting progress?  Energy levels being all over the place sure isn't helping, same with ability to focus.

Whew, that's a lot of questions.  I can combine my answers to the first three, though.  It depends if shorts count as pants.  I've been wearing shorts most days for the last few months.  It is, after all, warm in Texas.  I have no particular outdoor activities planned for me, but it has been warm here for a while so whatever novelty there was has worn off.  Actually, it is getting hot.  That said, I will be watching some live sports tomorrow; my four-year-old twins are in a kickball league, so I will watch a bunch of four- and five-year-olds play something that vaguely resembles kickball.  That should be a lot of fun; the kids are adorable.

 

I had no particular hobby plans for May, just to keep painting.  I try to paint a little each day, and I really am just going for tabletop quality so I get through miniatures pretty quickly.  I have finished five so far this month.  Last month I worked on a few that took a lot more effort, but so far this month I've finished a couple that have been sitting around partially painted for a while, plus two that I plan to put in a diorama for MSP Open at ReaperCon.  (I have no time for other hobbies, unless parenting counts as a hobby.)

Yes, but not right now.  Probably sometime after I get back from the store, unless things go horribly wrong.

 

Or right, I suppose...
