1. How many days is it acceptable to wear a pair of jeans, not necessarily consecutively, before washing, provided you're not running marathons, or rolling in the mud?2. Out of 10, how much would you disapprove of me for exceeding this limit?
3. How much fruit do you eat?
4. You are at a restaurant, and find a hair in your meal. Just a regular head-hair, nothing sinister. What do you do? Pick it out and cautiously press on? Complain and ask for a new meal? Leave in a huff?
5. A good day you wish you could have over again

Wow, I get to go first!
1. I tentatively venture three.
2. Four
3. About two.
4. Remove and press on.
5. My wedding day. It passed way too quickly and I was way too uptight.
1 - I find a week is generally ok, much more than that and it starts getting a bit bad.
2 - Maybe a 1. Depends how far you've overreached.
3 - Generally a piece a day with lunch. Maybe an extra banana at dessert.
4 - Depends on my mood - I normally wouldn't be too bothered by it. But I also have an in-law's house with floating dog hairs that get in Every. Single. Meal!
5 - Now Wendy's said Wedding Day, I'd feel bad if I said anything lesser. Maybe one of the honeymoon days would be pretty sweet.
When I said "get's bad", the word I was looking for was "manky".
1. I reckon three.
2. aw...only half.
3. A piece a day most days, maybe two on the weekend.
4. remove and press on.
5. saturday and sunday were pretty good. Can I do both? Sat - hung out with mum in the morning, then afternoon tea with 20 girlfriends that my two best friends organised (not a pastel blue ribbon or baby shower game in sight!), then Sam and went to a BBQ with some good friends of ours.
Sunday - church was amazing, Sam preached up a storm, God's holy spirit was working in His people and we had a great membership meeting afterwards (our first one). AND it was biggest loser/next gen finale on sun night! We are channel 10 junkies...
1. depending in the time of year and the perspiration level of the wearer (ahem)..2 or 3 times.
2. 8 (grub)
3. 2 or 3 pieces a day
4. get over it. Eat your food and enjoy the meal.
5. Too many to mention...Lotsa a top days in my calendar mate!!!
1. 12 (go on, tear me to shreds)
2. 1 (I'm a tolerant guy)
3. One a day usually
4. Remove and press on. It's just a bit of extra love from the chef.
5. A day from my Christmas holiday with the girls, down the coast.
1. 6
2. 2
3. 1 piece a day.
4. cautiously press on.
5. ? not sure.
1. I think I went 1 month in my uni days.
2. I'd think it was awesome!
3. Not enough. Usually 1 piece a day
4. Pick it out, press on, but leave it very obviously on the side of my plate.
5. Any day during my high school summer holidays - completely relaxing, no commitments or responsibilities.
Wendy- Wow. Three times? By day three they're just coming into their own, and finding their mojo.
Rodeo- I don't get how they can get manky after a week. I'll be the first to admit I'm a sweater. So I'm pushing my luck to wear a t-shirt twice. But leg sweat? My legs are peachy keen for at least a semester.
Soph- Sounds like a good weekend:) Live the dream while you two are footloose and fancy-free. Tick tick tick...
Pedro- Oh man, you can't tell me you wash jeans after two wears. That is some manic washing going on. Can you not see how you are murdering the environment with your OCD hygene?
Simone- Six.. well you're getting up there. May I encourage you to press on towards the goal.
Bonnie- Aha, a comrade! You go, sister. A month! I now hold you in very high esteem.
Ben - I have three children who are all at leg height. By the end of the week, despite getting home after their bedtime most nights, I will have had several dozen 'leg-hugs'. And the dirt factor comes from that.
I can't wear a T-shirt two days in a row.
1. many ... let's say at least 15 (provided you work in an air conditioned office ... but if you're out hitting the pavement on hot days, that would quickly come down to low single digits).
2. 2 unless they start to smell noticeably
3. one or two pieces on a good day
4. pick it out and keep going
5. had an awesome day surfing with mates till dusk at Noosa National Park around New Years 2000. Topped it off with Stagg chilli (and a few quiet beers) for dinner.
P.S. typo in number 5 ... should be "2009". There was no surfing happening in 2000.
Simone doesn't own jeans!
1. 2
2. 6/10
3. 2 pieces
4. Pick it out and keep eating
5. My wedding day.
1. I think it also would depend on the length of time they're being worn each time...but I would say 3 max.
2. Are you running around telling everyone you're on your fourth day? As long as there's no smell...2.
3. A lot
4. Ask for a new meal, complain a little.
5. What's a good day??
Rodeo- I feel your leghug pain. I think it's not so much dirt that comes as a result in my house as, say, Vegemite smears, Cruskit slurry and snot snail-trails.
Maso- Good on you, mate. To be honest I was being cautious and tentative when I wrote 12...
Helen-2 and then 6/10. Wow, tough audience, Helen. 6 is a lot of judgement to bear, I'm not sure I could stand under the weight.
Beth- Yay, our first 'ask for a new meal and complain'. More power to you.
1. Depends where you live. In winter I reckon you can get away with at least 2 weeks. Summer, only a day (if you could even stand it). That's Qld though. Southern states I reckon you could get a lot more. (There is a whole movement out there who won't wash their jeans at all - they put them in the freezer to 'refresh' them)
2. Depends if you smelt. No smell, no prob.
3. 1-3 items a day. If you don't count tomatoes.
4. Meh. I eat dog hair for breakfast.
5. That first day of a holiday far away from home where you can't possibly do any work. Awesome.

I'm with Bonnie on the month in uni days. Now probably a week or two - depends on if I've been in air-con most of the time or not.
2. Out of 10, how much would you disapprove of me for exceeding this limit?
How would I know unless you stank?
3. How much fruit do you eat?
Probably more than most on this forum.
4. You are at a restaurant, and find a hair in your meal. Just a regular head-hair, nothing sinister. What do you do? Pick it out and cautiously press on? Complain and ask for a new meal? Leave in a huff?
Pick it out assuming it is mine - I shed.
5. A good day you wish you could have over again
Wedding has been said so many times I'll go for something different - a friend's birthday party during school days. One was my first invite (Gr 1). Another was in later years - birthday party of a friend who died in 2002. Interestingly though, I actually have stronger memories of the earlier event.
