Combination of "could you describe the last time you were beaten to a bloody pulp?" and "how've you set yourself up in the past to get beaten to a bloody pulp, and without the innate editing that comes with writing things down..."
(I love keyboards, because they have that little backspace key... voices don't.)
(ponder, ponder, ponder...)
This is hard to do, because I've gotten so good at not saying a bloody thing, and at dodging potentially awkward situations that it's harder to come up with recent examples.
I *NEVER* say what's on my mind. Ever seen Liar Liar? Worse. I accept the fact that I'm a complete a3hole inside my own head--it's who I am. I think the wrong thing all the time. Thus, I never say a word.
There are times I'd love to have said:
"That was great up there. You could have timed that one line a little different but that's my only problem with your performance."
"Wow! You don't know how much I wish you weren't (dating my friend/married) so I could ask you out sometime."
"You look great, 'cept for that whole too-much-makeup thing"
"Slept late, huh?"
"D4, but you look hot in that (skirt/shirt/dress/etc.). You should wear stuff like that more often."
"So, uh... what're you doin, like, after rehearsal/class/(insert here)?
"I am so in lust with you..."
"Hi, I'm Sean."
....and several other things that my self-censor won't even let me put on screen.
I quote the infamous Xander Harris from Buffy the Vampire Slayer--
"Sometimes I shouldn't say...words."
