    ok so I have had it with dumb, shallow, meaningless questions that nobody wants to give you honest answers for anyway. here are some tachlis questions that would probably answer more about who the person really is:

    1. what is his favorite app?
    2. what time does he turn his phone off before Shabbos?
    3. what time does he turn it back on after Shabbos?
    4. what does his mom do that bugs him the most?
    5. what is his favorite nosh?
    6. what kind of instant coffee does he drink?
    7. does he leave wrappers on hiking trails and public parks?
    8. if so, does he make sure they aren’t heimish brands?

    My favorite app used to be YWN, but now it’s just a browser without an address bar.

    what size are you?
    what size will you be in ten years?
    what size is your mother?

    Oh, right, you mean meaningful ones 🙂

    What I want to know is what are the greatest challenges he’s faced in his life and how did he deal with them.

    SY:

    Here is how I would answer for my son:

    what is his favorite app? Doesn’t use a smartphone. Uses an old fashioned flip phone and barely knows how to text.

    what time does he turn his phone off before Shabbos? He learns in EY and to our knowledge he has to be in Yeshiva 1 hour before candle lighting (and he can’t take take the phone to yeshiva)

    what time does he turn it back on after Shabbos? Don’t know. We don’t talk to him until Sunday morning here in the US.

    what does his mom do that bugs him the most? Nothing…he is dan lkaf zechus that whatever she does is for a good reason.

    what is his favorite nosh? probably crackers with herring

    what kind of instant coffee does he drink? When he is in the US….whatever we buy.

    does he leave wrappers on hiking trails and public parks? He is to busy shteiging away

    if so, does he make sure they aren’t heimish brands? NA

    However, since he recently got married…..his wife does text us.

    It makes sense to look for a girl – if you have a boy.

    I like SL’s questions.

    Here are a few more…
    9. How much does he tip waiters* when he’s alone?
    10. What makes him angry? When does he raise his voice?
    11. How does he respond when another car cuts in front of him?
    12. Does he do his own laundry [using a washer/dryer]?
    13. Does he wash dishes?
    14. Does he eat his latkes with applesauce or sour cream?

    *Additional options: Caddies, and valet attendants

    9. 15%.
    10. He never angers or raises his voice other than in defense against attacks on the Torah.
    11. He slows down so that car can safely pass.
    12. His mother insists on doing it, despite his offering to do it. He does it when she’s away.
    13. Same as 12.

    It’s simple. Ask the boy and the girl which side of the black and white cookie they like best. If it’s different, let them meet.

    lowerourtuition11210: Then he gets a free pass to GO, collect his money, and bypass all other questions!

    I didn’t think of that potential answer!

    A+++++ 🙂
