    I don't tie my shoes.

    Do you wear slippers?

    You have your own shoe-tier, RK?

    I rarely wear slippers.

    Are you waiting to hear back from a friend?

    No...

    I just slip my shoes on and off, they are already tied.

    Have you ever stolen a street sign?

    Would you be speaking of a triangular sign with 5 letters on it, or any random street sign?

    Did you skip any meals today?

    A flood?

    Do you still use a mouse if you use a laptop, or do you prefer the touch pad?

    Not personally, but at work.

    What's special about that mouse?

    So, instead of moving the mouse around, you roll the ball with your thumb, it's an optical ball as well. The long skinny buttons on the sides are for 'page forward' and 'page back'. Much faster than a standard mouse, less wrist strain too. They were discontinued by Microsoft (but can still be found for ridiculous prices). Other companies make them.

    Do you have/use a DVR?

    Nope, don't have cable.

    Do you use an Apple TV, Roku, Firestick, or similar device for your tv viewing?

    it's got some stuff Netflix doesn't have. I was actually surprised there's several things I want to watch on there. Prime Music is awesome too.

    Do you have a "smart" TV

    No, I don't really want a smart tv. I just want a dumb TV...sort of wish the tv I have now would die. It's so heavy and takes up so much room.

    Do you wish embrace all these 'smart' electronics ?

    I use streaming services like Netflix. I don't think that's considered downloading.

    I try to stay up to date on tech because I don't want to be left behind. I like the idea of a smart TV because I won't have to use my laptop for Netflix et al anymore which might mean I'll stop dropping it! I really want to replace my TV because it's heavy and I can't mount it on the wall, but the new ones are so light that it wouldn't be a problem. Also, TVs are stupid cheap now as long as you aren't buying 4k. I don't like 4k because I swear it gives me motion sickness. Though someone told me it's the refresh rate, not the 4k that makes the motion all wonky on the new TVs.

    Is it fun when two questions get asked at once?
