in Weekend Experiences2 years ago

There may be a great fire in our hearts, yet no one ever comes to warm himself at it, and the passers-by see only a wisp of smoke.

Friday 19.png

The weekend approaches and I hope you've got something great planned for it. As usual, I'm here with some writing suggestions in case you are looking for something to post about over the weekend. I'll wrap up the weekend on Monday with my favourites post so please follow the guidelines below to be eligible. Post in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES Community and follow the guidelines to be eligible for curation and the favourites post.

The inflexible guidelines

🔰 🔰 🔰

☑️ Use #weekend-engagement as the first tag so I can find your entry
☑️ Post in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES community (no cross-posting)
☑️ Use photos you took where possible (it shows character and personality)
☑️ Follow all the community rules - Post in ENGLISH only (not multi-language)
☑️ Entries close at 06:30 UTC Monday 27 February (Link to UTC converter)


The (hopefully) interesting prompts

Don't write lengthy summaries of my questions just to use up the word count - just write your post in answer to the question you choose - and use the word count as part of your answer.

🔰 🔰 🔰

Note: Serious or humorous responses are acceptable, just have some fun.

Got to die somehow: Would you rather...

Assuming you had to choose between the following three ways of dying...Would you rather get eaten by a shark, fall out of a plane without a parachute, or trampled by a herd of elephants? Explain your answer in a post of at least 300 words.

oh man the topics are all way too good...need to stop laughing first before I pick one. :)

Lol...my plan was to inspire some humorous posts with these topics, people take it all so seriously, so I figured I'd shake it up.

It has been a while since my last entry in the weekend concept. I am looking forward to joining the prompt.
Hehe. As always all topics are really interesting. Good luck to everyone.

Indeed, good luck to all who enter. Have a good weekend.

Great topics to choose from, happy weekend to you @galenkp and to every member of weekend community, 💥♥️☺️🥰

Thanks mate, I hope you have a good weekend too. Which topic will you choose do you think?

Just you or more: Would you rather... 💥🥰☺️♥️

Is my take

Nice one, let's see how it comes out. ✅

Great, I am on it already 🥰☺️♥️💥

Whoa, all of them are so good and interesting to write on. Thus, from the usual 4-5 prompts, you have 8 this week. This will be interesting mate. The first and last got my interest the most.

Wiee!!! Curious na me sa susulatin mo @dennnmarc 😅

Aww, salamat ate. Mag entry ka din po at alam ko maganda rin ang kakalabasan, eyy!

I'm glad you like them, I wasn't sure how people would respond but went ahead anyway. I like forcing people to think outside their comfort zone and to get creative. Have a good weekend.

That's for sure! There are tons of creative writers here and I know they surprise you every week. Hahaha.

Yep, there's some good ones for sure.

Let's go it's another weekend with interesting topics

Let's go indeed.

Can't stop laughing when I read the last writing suggestion. 🤣🤣
Anyways, goodluck to all the participants this weekend!

Laughter was one of my goals this week so, with you at least, goal attained.

Have a good weekend.

😂😂😂, this got to be the funniest weekend question I have come across for a while all questions are interesting and one would not mind going for each of them.

Happy weekend to you @galenkp

I'm glad you think that, I was hoping people might lighten up and have some fun with these ones.

Have a good weekend.

Great topics again. This weekend is surely gonna be a swell one because I will just go prepare a good post on one of these.

It should be a good weekend, I hope you have a good in in the offline world too.

Lol. I kept laughing while reading these concepts 😂... You really put good choices, something that we won't gonna choose but we have to, lol.

I'm glad you like them. I think we may see some great posts this week.

One time a friend of mine said he would like to die while sleeping and he asked me how do I want to die 🤣🤣the question throw me off balance.
Reading this question now I can't help but laugh and wait to read people's response to it.....
You are really pushing us out of our comfort zone and bringing out the creativity in us.🙌🙌🙌

Oh yeah, getting people out of the comfort zone is the focus, I'm glad it worked.

Yes, on my way to publish it!
Thanks for these activities you create! They are stimulating my (and I think, all of us) curiosity and creativity

I'm glad you found a topic you like. Get it done, I look forward to seeing it over the weekend.

Have a good weekend.

These have to be the most interesting set of topics I've ever seen. Like you're literally telling us. "Okay guys, go knock yourself out." And thanks cause we most certainly will.😂

Have some fun, be serious or humourous with your response. Fun is the focus!

There's one that is made for me, so thank you and I'll be back with my post 😎

Nice! I was hoping I hit the mark.

I hope those boots are working for you and you walk right into an awesome weekend!

All interesting to write on, which will I rather do? Looking forward to all the interesting post this weekend.

Happy weekend to you too.

Hmm, which will you do...we'll see when you do it huh? Have a good weekend.

WOW, This week has lots of interesting topics as usual. I love all the topics.

That's good, it shouldn't be too difficult to choose one then I guess. Have a good weekend.

Thank you. Choosing one out of all isn't difficult at all. I have made my choice already😊. Do have a great weekend too. 🤭

See me smiling sheepishly here, how you placed all the concepts side by side makes the whole prompt super interesting and i am so hopping on this one🙂

Cool, make sure you follow the guidelines for eligibility.

Wow! a very interesting topics. I'm looking forward for the entries and I will read them all. Topics made me think what should I rather choose,hope I can send my entry soon.

Happy weekend, we'll see if you manage to get a post in...just follow the guidelines for eligibility.

Hi @galenkp 🤗

Thanks for the suggestions this week mate. I am undecided 😂

untitled.gif

You're most welcome. Have a great weekend mate.

Weekend-engagement, dilemma edition.

Lol, yeah that would have been a good title!

Many interesting topics, to question ourselves. For a couple of them I have no answer. Excellent! Happy weekend to all!

Have a great weekend.

The first one is so brutal 😭😭 So certainly not that one.

Lol, I like pushing people to their creative limits.

You will surely have amazingly creative entries this week. Thank you for this mate!

All good bro, happy to help the blockchain in my own small way.

This time you really exaggerated, they are all fantastic topics on which you can write a lot and well.

I have actually already chosen, but know that I will recycle all the ideas and I think that this week I will write seven posts that arise from these ideas of yours.

Great G-Dog, you are always the best!

Seven in a weekend? One a day is ample.

I'm glad you like the topics. Have a good weekend.

No, not all in one weekend.

I have selected what I will write and publish in the afternoon.

Then with these themes I will write one post a day this week because they are all really too beautiful!
You posted eight, so I'm posting today's one and then starting tomorrow, for seven days I'll exploit all the ideas; I won't publish them all in this community, but if you allow me I would like to tag it and tag you; obviously in the posts written using these ideas, it seems right to me, indeed it seems to me the minimum heh heh!

 2 years ago (edited) 

Ah ok. Yeah, tag me mate I'd like to read them all and also it'll be nice to know my topics are being used for posting inspiration.

Heh heh, I always am; if you reread my posts a bit and scroll back through the weekend ones you'll notice that I got a lot of inspiration from the older ones😉

I see that actually, the old g-dog doesn't miss (too) much.

I don't know if this time I was good with English, maybe I didn't write well.

I meant the old weekend engagement posts; I'm scrolling through them and I'm getting a lot of ideas, I have at least 100 editions that I wasn't present at yet... that's a lot of stuff to write about he eh!

I could never say that you are old, also because we are not very distant in age; as far as I'm concerned, if I really have to define myself I'd say I'm "differently young" or "vintage" Eh eh!
And surely You are much fitter than me!😉

Interesting topics, which one should I go for now? 🤔

Hmm, well only you know...I hope you'll come up with one though. Happy weekend.

Yeah, I will come up with one.
Happy weekend.

The last topic got me smiling 😂.
But somehow I find it interesting.

Smiling and laughter is perfect for the weekend, so have some fun with it if you decide to join in.

Because of your post I notice its friday already 🤦‍♂️ Im going with "Where you live: Would you rather...
" just because Im jealous of everyone posting pictures from snowy places and all there is heat and humidity where I live, I rather live in a more cold weather, will post latter tonight ✌️

Nice topics. Well let see how this goes..
Happy weekend y'all.

Thanks, and happy weekend!

What an interesting topics this week let me get prepared and make my post thank you @galenkp

No worries, prepare away, I'll wait to see what you come up with.

How am I just finding about this community now??????😂😂😂

So many interesting topics.. I don't even know what to choose but it's definitely not going to be the first because I like being alive and I would rather not say which kind of death I'd prefer 😆😆

I can't wait for my hands to get typing... It should be a really interesting weekend.

Hi there. I'm not sure how you missed it, we're been around a long time. If you enter please make sure you follow the guidelines.

Good God, how to choose to be beautiful and never have sex again!.... Having sex is one of the delights of this life.

None of the 3 deaths excites me: I am terrified of sharks, airplanes sometimes give me panic attacks and elephants would be something painful... I prefer death to visit me while I am peacefully asleep, take me romantically by the hand and tell me: This is as far as you have come, let's go!

I wanted to challenge people's thinking, it seems to have worked. 😁

Oh yes, it is true! My brain is working hahahaha

Hello, these initiatives are different. The administrator can also respond to each one or just one, in publication or as a comment 🤣.
A big hug 🤗

You want me to respond? Hmm, maybe I will.

Have a good weekend huh? 😉

Sure!. It would be very interesting 👏
It's more work for you really.
On weekends you must be swamped with work but a bit more relaxed.

I have a lot of posts to read on the weekend as you can imagine, but I don't have to do my real life job so yes, I'm a little more relaxed. Or course, I have a lot of stuff going on in my offline world and like to put some effort to that, but I'm generally quite relaxed on the weekends. I've got a post about some photos I took ready for the weekend already, maybe I'll also answer a topic. We'll see.

Most particularly, my weekend has already begun.

Lol...it's 04:15 Saturday morning...I should be asleep, but woke up because it was raining so hard (loudly) outside. It's nice though, had been 40C+ every day over the last week so the rain is welcome...and the cooler temperatures.

I love the rain and even more when it is expected. Uff you really should be sleeping but you still get up with the same energy.

I fell asleep finally. Thankfully.

Small pleasures of life 😍. Sleeping while it rains

It is unbelievable. Here the mornings and evenings are cold, or rather cool, but at this time of the day the sun is quite strong, the temperature must be 32°.

We get very hot temperatures sometimes, up to 47C here and in other patlrts if the State into the 50's. Not all of Australia is like that though and not all year of course. Mostly it's quite nice.

I kinda had a hard time picking one to write on. 😁

Sometimes doing difficult things pays dividends.

Yes that true😀

And who wouldn't fall in love with all the topics. Jeezzz 😍

Only a mad man or fool wouldn't fall in love. 😁

Hello friend, @galenkp how are you?
Greetings.

Here you have my entry:

https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@hexagono6/i-am-an-only-child-and-i-love-that

I'm well, thanks for asking. I hope you are also. Thanks for your entry, and all the best for the weekend.

Thanks my friend.

Anyway, enjoy your weekend, if you come to Venezuela let me know 🤭🤭.

You're welcome, and yes, if I head over there I'll be sure to let you know. 😊

This week topics are really interesting,,

Thank you.

Hello community, all the questions look good, it's hard for me to choose one. Good initiative, I will soon send my entry

Sounds like a good plan. Happy weekend.

I will have a lot of fun answering any of the questions. They made my imagination run wild 🫶

That was the plan, so I'm glad.

These are great prompts, @galenkp. The last one making me laugh so hard. 😂 😂 Looking forward to participate.

Thanksbfir letting me know, I was hoping people would have some fun with them. Happy weekend.

Well, well, well. I gave it a try and choose something interesting. Never thought about it, but here I am. Happy weekend.

Greetings. This week the topics are difficult. I'm going to go with the one about death which should be one of the least popular. Thanks for offering these food for thought. A big hug from Maracay dear @galenkp .

A few others have done that one, there been some great entries. Happy weekend.

Happy weekend my friend.

Greetings friend interesting topics to develop the imagination

Thanks for participating.

A big hug to everyone from this side of the planet.

Here is my participation:
https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@germanandradeg/this-weekend-death-is-not

It was a great post mate, I enjoyed it.

Your words make me very happy, they motivate me to continue learning and improving.
With the opportunities, you provide in your community and with the initiatives, I have learned and I'm sure I will learn much more.
Now my mind is in constant creation of stories and I can't stop. I participate in several writing communities and I am constantly reading other authors to learn more.
I enjoyed this story very much, I think I extended myself, but that's why, because I enjoyed writing it.
A big hug my friend and thank you.

You're doing a great job and I'm glad to hear I'm providing some inspiration/motivation to you. Keep up the good work.

Today I'm back and although it was difficult for me to select which one I wanted to answer, I ended up choosing the one that gave me the most pleasure 😅 I hope I don't bore you.

https://hive.blog/hive-168869/@cochanet/writing-topics-week-142-the-luck-of-the-ugly-the-beautiful-wish-it

You did a good job with your post, thanks for taking the time. Happy weekend.

Thank you for appreciating it, your words flatter me, Happy weekend 🙏🏽🤗

Oh thanks for your warm greeting on this message and your wishes for a good weekend, I hope you also have a good weekend, thanks for your kind thoughts.

Thank You and do have a great weekend as well

I was actually being sarcastic, you didn't wish me well at all, just wrote, post link.

Where I come from (Australia) that's considered a little rude. It's customary for a person to offer a greeting. Maybe manners are different in your country.

Lol, forgive my rude manners

Please, how are you and I hope you're doing fine? I wish you a great and wonderful weekend full with beautiful experience.

No worries, I guess I feel that you've been interacting with me for some time and with the #weekend-engagement concept so a simple, hey how are you? could work well. Then drop the link and you're done. The same goes for any interaction you have on the blockchain, being personable will get your further.

Well noted with thanks!

Being trampled to death by a herd of elephants is one of the most ridiculous ways to die in my opinion.

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@teukumukhlis/a-ridiculous-way-to-die

And yet it happens a lot, about 500 people every year.

10 deadliest animals to humans

hehehehe so many options!!! but only ONE called to me specifically this week! I think I'll work on it tonight and submit it tomorrow for you! hmmm how creative do i want to get! LOL think think think...

this will be a fun one I think - let's try creative! hehehe

Thank God its Friday!!! enjoy the weekend, CH!!! :) hehe yep - i still remember that name ;)

One is good enough, none would be of concern, but one works.

Have a good weekend, Saturday lunch time here. Coffee, ham and cheese croissant and (maybe) cheesecake after is on the menu. Just ordered.

gahhhhhhhhhhhh enjoy... lol

i'm not sure if that sounds so freaking delicious because it is... or because i'm fasting... LOLOL

but can you just hold it up to the screen so i can sniff??? ROFLLLLLLLLLLL

Fasting?

I fast too and love it.

I fast between breakfast and lunch.

Then again between lunch and afternoon snack.

Between afternoon snack and dinner I also fast, and then between dinner and evening munchies.

Between evening munchies and breakfast is a big fast and then it starts all over again.

#fastingexpert

LOL - i wont even tell you how long this fast is. LOL

but i usually do it once every 1-2 years.
and now was the time. hehehe

but hooooorayyyyyyyyy my last day is the 26th!!!
enjoy your yumminess and as the cheese is warm and ooey gooey and dripping off the croissant and you have to lick it up fast so it doesn't drop... think... damn, dreem is missing out. hahahahahahahahaha

 2 years ago (edited) 

If I fastest for longer then seven hours (when I'm asleep) I'd literally die on the spot.

  • Seven hours on the dot: Alive
  • Seven hours and one second: Dead from starvation

Here's my ham and cheese croissant.

20230225_123923.jpg

HAHAHAHA - and the cheesecake??? LOL

Hi @galenkp, here are outrageous😢😢 and very incisive proposals, I was almost all day thinking which one I would choose, and I decided for the ugly man and sex:

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@nbarrios67/writing-topics-week-142-weekend

Happy weekend.

Great choice, I was hoping sla few would choose it, and they have. I've tried to make people think this week, and make difficult choices which is what happens every day in real life right?

Many times real life is hard, but we have to face it, otherwise there is no way to correct our mistakes.

Yep, I agree. Own it and shape it the way we wish it to look..

@galenkp Oh i understand. thank you very much for clarifying. i'm getting more involved with the community dynamics.
