a dslr records at 30 frames per second but a gopro records at 29.97 frames per second making it a pain to edit things. why do they make it so annoying?
To be dicks. No other excuse for that.

what % of the songs that get played as background music in shops would you be able to recognise (like by knowing the song title)?
Depends on the shop. Though if it's a shop that I frequent: probably like 50%.

under what circumstances would you not take the free item in a buy 1 get 1 free (of the same thing) deal?
If I have no use for the items, the 1 item is too expensive, or the items have an expiration date that I wouldn't be able to use the item by.

you're in an alternate universe where the ultimate measure of your inherent worth as a human being is your skill at flappy bird. how much do you think you'd enjoy your life?
I'm fairly average at flappy bird, so I guess life wouldn't be much different.

if you were a cinema owner, would you give invisible people discounts? (a) yes (b) no (c) bagels
No. If I give the invisible people discounts, then I feel that I would have to give the visible people discounts as well. At that point I'm just dropping prices.

do you know whether you are 3 degrees of friendship away from someone famous? i.e. you are friends with someone who is friends with someone who is friends with someone famous. if not, instead of "friendship", read "acquaintance"?
Was 2 degrees of separation away from Patrick Swayze, though he died 5 years ago. At this point idk if I am. My stepfamily has some connections though, so I would assume I am.

would you allow yourself to be pushed by me into a really cold (but not freezing) lake on the condition that i will allow you to do the same to me afterwards? if you want to ask why would i do this, the answer is for absolutely no reason at all. (i will try to rescue you if you find it necessary.)
Nope. I don't want to be pushed into a really cold lake. Alternatively, I likely don't want to push you into a really cold lake either.

if everybody on earth who spoke english suddenly decided to switch to using the wingdings character alphabet instead of the normal alphabet, but other languages weren't affected, how long would you take to adapt to the wingdings alphabet? or wouldn't you?
I have an elementary understanding of German, so I likely would get more experienced with that. After that I would probably try learning Chinese (given that a large percentage of the population speaks it).

why are bitcoins going down?
I'm not well versed enough in bitcoin to say for certain what its flaws are.

on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 is not annoyed at all, and annoyed enough to kill someone is about 9.75, how annoyed are you at the fact that the song "uptown girl" by billy joel has a grammar mistake: "and now she's looking for a downtown man / that's WHAT i am"? (what --> who)
0

would it be possible for a woman to be shaped like a hexagon? (outnumbered, season 3, episode 2)
Maybe with the help of the world's most messed up corset, but otherwise I don't see it.

in usa there are 6 types of coins (only 4 regularly used); in the uk there are 8. self checkout machines in uk are based on the american model so they only have 6 coin buckets so there is no 10p or 50p bucket. this is annoying when i get 50p in change like 20p,20p,5p,5p. how does this make you feel?
I can see the ease of use of not having to mess with that. There is already a design in place that can be mass produced.
On the other hand, the UK is large enough entity that I feel they should have self checkout machines specific to them. Of course I'm only basing this off of the information that you provided me, so it's very possible that you're joking with me and that they actually do.

why do we drink cow milk? i mean who was that one guy who first looked at a cow and thought "i think i'll drink whatever comes out of these things when i squeeze them!"? isn't that weird?
I've asked myself that same question.

what exactly is creme fraiche?
It is a mystery.

if you got an invite to appear on the tv show wipeout, would you accept or decline? if you accept, how well do you think you'd do on it? if you decline, and you get the chance to give it to someone you know, whom would you give it to?
Decline and give it to someone I don't like for the sole purpose that get embarrassed.
