I played a sport in school: Varsity water polo and swimming. Was also in marching band, like Brian (kinda counts as a sport cause holding up heavy instrument while wearing disgusting wool that doesn't breathe is strenuous activity).

I've bought a product off an informercial: Nope

I've cried in a public place: A few times, also relates to me seeing a person die (see below).

I will buy candy to give out to children this year: Probably not (voted no). My building is all DC-type young professionals, so I doubt there's trick-or-treating here.

I have an embarrassing interest or hobby: Quite a few. I don't really play ORGs anymore, but I'd definitely count them as one.

I've seen someone die: I saw a man die at the Colosseum in Rome last year. And no, he wasn't ravaged by animals. It was like 95 degrees and my friend were stopped in the shade in front of one of the arches to get a cross breeze. Suddenly I heard a really loud smack on the pavement, about a foot behind me. I turn around and an old man was lying there with his eyes and mouth wide open, not breathing, with blood coming out of his head. His family noticed and came running over, screaming and in hysterics. It was one of the most upsetting moments of my entire life and I don't think I'll ever get the image out of my head.

I still own something I had when I was a child: Lots of things! I'm very sentimental.

I have been to a party in the last month: I actually haven't. Wait! Does a wedding count? I guess I have...didn't vote for it, though.

I currently have a dating profile: Not anymore. I had Bumble very briefly, but decided that dating apps are not for me.

I've gotten an autograph from a celebrity: Yup! Jane Lynch, a bunch of baseball players, some pro tennis players. Mickey Mouse at Disneyland when I was a kid!!!! Also, not an autograph but I met Matt Berninger of the National at a private concert a few years ago.

I checked most of these. Anyone who plays orgs (or mafia) should say yes to embarrassing hobby (unless you discuss openly i guess).

Ive never seen anyone die - unless my cat counts? :(

I played a sport in school - Football, basketball and baseball

I've bought a product off an informercial - nope

I've cried in a public place - yes a couple of times, namely after finding out someone close to me has passed away.

I will buy candy to give out to children this year - absolutely and not for Sugar's van, for holidays and birthdays mainly.

I have an embarrassing interest or hobby - like buffy said above playing mafia, only a couple people know I even do that.

I've seen someone die - not the moment of, but close, just prior too, within minutes.

I still own something I had when I was a child - Quite a few items actually, cute little keepsakes for my kids to embarrass me with in the future.

I have been to a party in the last month - Yes, I'm generally at a party pretty much every weekend during tailgating and football season.

I currently have a dating profile - nope, not in a long long time.

I've gotten an autograph from a celebrity - yes celebrities to me, mostly Detroit Tigers from the 80's.

I played a sport in school -- All-state Cross Country runner, plus Basketball and Track

I've bought a product off an informercial -- Nope, but I'm pretty sure I've been gifted a shamwow or something similar in the past

I've cried in a public place -- Who hasn't?

I will buy candy to give out to children this year -- My wife is big into Halloween, so I'm sure we'll be buying way more candy than we need

I have an embarrassing interest or hobby -- Who doesn't?

I've seen someone die -- Yep, more than once, the one that sticks in my mind is seeing a head-on car wreck on the interstate driving through Billings MT, right in front of me. I was talking to my GF at the time, and remember mentioning that 'I think I just saw someone die', and when I got to her place later that night, I looked up on the news, and yep, multiple dead people (and not the one that screwed up, of course).

I still own something I had when I was a child -- Who doesn't?

I have been to a party in the last month -- I'm a father with 2 young kids, I ain't got time for that!

I currently have a dating profile -- Not sure my wife would think this a wise choice, so no

I've gotten an autograph from a celebrity -- Autograph? Nope, don't have any of those (unless you count the 'signed' baseball cards). I have met quite a few celebrities however.

Do you have to think your interest/hobby is embarrassing or does it count if someone would find it embarrassing?

I took it as though, a majority of others would think it's embarrassing.
