- Asking questions or answering questions?
I’ve spent way too many hours asking most of these and many other either/or questions. I figured I’d write them down and publish them, so you and I can come back here and just go down the list with friends or family or whoever else.
I love these either/or kind especially because they’re pretty non-threatening. Anyone can answer them, the whole list can go pretty fast, and you can get a good picture of the person who’s answering.
From there, if you’re looking for other questions to ask, check out the old favorite “100 questions to ask people.” And send me some of your own favorites to ask – maybe I’ll make a list of questions just from you guys.
