Face the Board: Emiliano
 

FTB goes international with this weeks selection.

As always questioning runs through Saturday.

True of false, all skittles taste the same?

Are you married?

Kids?

What do you do? Is it your dream job? If not, what is?

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

What do you think are the biggest misconceptions Americans have about Italy and/or Europe?

What do you think are the biggest misconceptions Italians and/or Europeans have about Americans?

How did you find us?

What is your favorite city in the world and why?

What part of Italy are you from?

What do you think HA would have posted in this thread, if he wasn't boxed?

How do you feel about full frontal male nudity?

Wow my Italian buddy interviewed, i need to think on something to ask!

Your thoughts on Italian football and what have happened the in recent weeks.

Ok, here they come:

- Knowing that your girlfriend is going to move to live with you soon, have you really thought about how it will affect your gamming life? What about our long superbowl nights commenting every play by AIM? How long until she tells you that it's me or she? :D

- We have discussed this a few times already, but... what would you give to be offered a travel machine to go back in time and to become a kid in a Texan high school like the one in Friday Night Lights?

- More seriously now, what do you think about American high school and college sports, scholarships, etc compared with them (or the lack of) in Europe?

Why are Italian drivers crazy?

What is a fun place in Italy that the tourists usually miss?

What are your other hobbies besides computer gaming?

I'm sure this has been covered somewhere before...but have you ever been to America? If so, where did you go and what were your thoughts? Is "American" Italian food complete crap? If you haven't...any plans for a visit? Why or why not?

Do you agree that Italians > French?

Have you done much traveling outside of Italy? Outside of Europe?
If yes, where is your favorite place you've been to in Europe? In the world?
If not, where would you most like to go?

/tk

How much do you hate the French? How come in all my trips to Italy, the men drive around on little scooters making kissing sounds at the chick I'm walking with? Is that the main form of communication?

When and why did you become a football fan?

Italian machismo...fact or fiction?

For those of you wondering...machismo:

1. a strong or exaggerated sense of manliness; an assumptive attitude that virility, courage, strength, and entitlement to dominate are attributes or concomitants of masculinity.
2. a strong or exaggerated sense of power or the right to dominate

Oooh, cool choice as I don't know much about Emiliano. To start off:

What do your friends say about you?

If you had to choose to live without one of the following, which would it be and why: TV, the internet, telephone?

What is your favorite holiday and why?

What is one unique thing about you?

I noticed from your profile that you enjoy hip hop music; who are your favorite artists and can you lock and pop?

Besides the obvious things such as smell, what are some of the downsides of living in a giant boot?

If Italy ever had an NFL franchise, what do you think it would be named?

We didnt get to play this year, but who would have won? Your MSU team or my Wisconin team?

And do you think penn state deserved the playoff spot over both of us?

Ferrari or Lamborghini?

You're in a train in your home town traveling at 100kph towards Rome and a train leaves Rome at 80kph, how long does it take your train to reach its destination?

What is your favorite place to visit in Italy?

What is your guilty pleasure?

Has something so embarrassing happened to you that just thinking about it makes you blush?

How many languages do you speak?

Allora, che cazzo fai? :D

From an Italian proverb I learned, why is it bad to let the farmer know that cheese is good with pears? (Al contadino non far sapere quanto e buono il formaggio con le pere.)

Why, for good luck, do Italians say "In the ass of the whale"? (In culo alla balena)

Why do Italians have two or three cell phones per person? I saw babies in strollers sending SMS messages, and 94 year old men on cell phones when I was in Italy.

Veline, or Velone?

Is Totti as stupid (pirlo) as he appears to be in TV interviews?

Do you have any interesting people in your family tree?

What do you do for hobbies on a regular basis?

Did you grow up in a religious or spiritual household?

Are there local areas that you are least likely to visit?

Has there ever been an event in which you feared for your life?

Since I just learned that you are moving in with your girlfriend because of Icy's questions, what led you guys to make the decision to do so?

What is your given birth name (You don't have to write the full name is you are a privacy guy)?

What would be your dream job/career?

What are the good and bad memories that you reflect upon from time to time?

Because you reside in an area steeped with history, does the schools do a pretty good job teaching you about its past? And do you find that some educators tend to embellish the truth a bit?

If a group of FOFCers somehow scrounged some money to visit Italy and you gleefully volunteered to be our tour guide, where would you take us to as the must-see places?

What do you fear the most?

A few more questions:
How did you feel when you were chosen for the next FTB?
Should the Americans switch to the metric system?

Would you like to play Werewolf? There's a game starting soon.

lol

Yours I take it? :D

Have you ever read a werewolf thread Emiliano? It's an easy game, all you do is vote lathum day in and day out. You'll get a wolf easy if you do that.

Mine is still a ways out. New players are always a good thing, though. And, yes, Dodgerchick has it: vote lathum if you're a villager, kill blade if you're a wolf. Basic strategy right there.

Didn't your woman used to post here? What ever happened to her?

jbmagic's first language is Italian -- is he real or fake?

When you and Tara were talking in Italian, were you:
a) making fun of our inability to understand any Italian, or
b) laughing about how you could have dropped us off in the middle of nowhere

Why are you afraid of pictures?

deadline was saturday pass, sorry bro

Thanks for the heads-up. I was on vacation and just got back Sunday, and thought I could sneak these in. Here's some more:

Why do you call your girlfriend Tara, when her name is Sara?

I've lived in Chicago for a few years now, but haven't got around to seeing most of the touristy places here. Have you seen most of those in Rome?

When you read WNBA jokes on here, does it get you upset?

Two chicks you'd want in a threesome. Go.

Hint: They're all Golden, and their name isn't Sophia.

Oh wait, this isn't FTB - Schmidty. My bad.
