A - Abacus: should schools teach it in case calculators break? Nah. What are the chances of every calculator in the world breaking and nobody being to recreate them?
B - Breadwinner: would you enter a lottery if all prizes consisted of free bread for some number of years? Sure, as long as it wasn't nasty white bread.
C - Cannibalism: barbaric practice or misunderstood victim of cultural imperialism? Barbaric practice.
D - Divinity: do you believe in one? No.
E - Edible computer: good in theory or bad in theory? Bad in theory.
F - 'Fraid of spiders? All but the tiniest ones.
G - Gummy worms or real worms? (Which would you prefer to eat?) Neither. I'm a vegetarian.
H - Habit: which is your worst? Junk food.
I - Immunized against influenza? Not this year.
J - Jury duty: have you ever served? Would you like to? I've been summoned several times but never actually served.
K - Koran, the Movie: offensive or inspirational for Jim Carrey to be cast as Muhammad? The idea of Jim Carrey playing as any significant historical figure is offensive.
L - Lint: if you found a use for it, could you become a millionaire? Probably.
M - Metric system: should the USA convert? It would no doubt make things easier once the initial problem of conversion was over.
N - Nano-tech: is it the future? I think it likely is.
O - Organ donor: did you sign the card or are you a bit paranoid? Yes, as soon as I turned 18.
P - Popcorn: do you like it as much as toast? Almost.
Q - Quadrupeds good, bipeds bad: is it a brilliant revolutionary slogan or reactionary counter-revolutionary Trotskyist propaganda? Brilliant parody.
R - Rainbow: how long since you've seen one in person? I forget.
S - Smell: what food do you smell before other people notice it? Coffee.
T - Toast: does it really deserve its own appliance? Yes. Making toast in an oven is wasteful of energy and often results in burnt toast.
U - Umpire, have you ever been angry at one? No.
V - Vegetarianism: is it admirable, is it snobbish, or is it no big deal? It's a personal choice.
W - Wisdom teeth: how many have you had removed? None.
X - Xi: Would you support an initiative to add it to our alphabet? I don't care one way or the other.
Y - Yogurt: think of as a snack, a health food, or a punishment? Health food. I prefer soygurt but will eat dairy yougurt.
Z - Zoroastrianism and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: would you consider reading such a book? Possibly.

2. Well, I'm definitely opinionated - |
|
A - Abacus: should schools teach it in case calculators break? No, but they should teach it to give students some idea of history and progress.
B - Breadwinner: would you enter a lottery if all prizes consisted of free bread for some number of years? I don't gamble no matter what the prize. I'm too practical to hand over money for possibilities.
C - Cannibalism: barbaric practice or misunderstood victim of cultural imperialism? Sometimes a necessary thing but not something I'd like to see as a common practice.
D - Divinity: do you believe in one? You mean the candy? I believe in it but I don't like it. As for god, no.
E - Edible computer: good in theory or bad in theory? Very bad. Silly, in fact.
F - 'Fraid of spiders? Nope.
G - Gummy worms or real worms? (Which would you prefer to eat?) Gummy worms.
H - Habit: which is your worst? Gummy worms.
I - Immunized against influenza? No.
J - Jury duty: have you ever served? Would you like to? I've been called but never served. I have no desire to but would if called.
K - Koran, the Movie: offensive or inspirational for Jim Carrey to be cast as Muhammad? Offensive for Jim Carrey to be cast as anything.
L - Lint: if you found a use for it, could you become a millionaire? Nah, I'd end up giving the idea away and someone else would make brazillions.
M - Metric system: should the USA convert? Yes, but I'd be hopelessly confused.
N - Nano-tech: is it the future? Is that some kind of music?
O - Organ donor: did you sign the card or are you a bit paranoid? I'm not having those guys coming round to take my liver! I'm still using it.
P - Popcorn: do you like it as much as toast? No.
Q - Quadrupeds good, bipeds bad: is it a brilliant revolutionary slogan or reactionary counter-revolutionary Trotskyist propaganda? Why can't we all just get along?
R - Rainbow: how long since you've seen one in person? Maybe six months.
S - Smell: what food do you smell before other people notice it? I don't think I do that.
T - Toast: does it really deserve its own appliance? Yes. It's the world's perfect food.
U - Umpire, have you ever been angry at one? No but I do laugh at their uniforms.
V - Vegetarianism: is it admirable, is it snobbish, or is it no big deal? It just is.
W - Wisdom teeth: how many have you had removed? None.
X - Xi: Would you support an initiative to add it to our alphabet? Where does one use it?
Y - Yogurt: think of as a snack, a health food, or a punishment? Snack.
Z - Zoroastrianism and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: would you consider reading such a book? Sure.
