I took the Foreign Service Officer Test yesterday! Ask me anything*

[MrCoffee]

*except what was on the test. I had to swear or affirm that I wouldn't tell none of you that.

1. There's a foreign object in my eye,how do I get it out?

:shrug:

[MrCoffee]

2. Ideally, a friend or coworker should spray you in the face with a fire hose

Barring that, dunking your head repeatedly in a tub of ice water can help

[Swede]

3. Thanks.

:hi:

[nolabear]

4. Does a bear...well, you know.

[MrCoffee]

9. You know, it does

[MrCoffee]

10. Easier, I thought

It was multiple choice

[kentauros]

6. Since you won't tell none of us that,

can you at least tell all of us that? :P

[MrCoffee]

11. And violate the oath I've sworn to uphold? What kind of monster do you think I am?

8. If a train pulls out of Atlanta going 20 MPH and another train leaves Philly traveling 25mph...

what time does happy hour start on each of those trains?

[MrCoffee]

13. It's five o'clock somewhere...what are you having?

As long as it's midori on the rocks, I've got you covered.

[LynneSin]

16. As long as Midori is a brand of top shelf Tequila, then I'll take one

If not Herradura please

[woo me with science]

15. Can you demonstrate your diplomatic skills on GD

and help us all get along?

[LynneSin]

17. GD is for punks - send him to the Gungeon
