Having finished “The 25 most popular icebreaker questions based on four years of data” and enjoyed the results, I’m moving on to a new list:
76 Fun Icebreaker Questions (Not all of which will be used, since some are either/or questions, which are boring.)
Your mission: answer the question in the comments with a good story.
If you don’t have a good story, you are encouraged to make one up.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
Much like Luke Skywalker, I wanted to join the Rebellion.
Then I found out the Empire paid better and didn’t live on an ice planet.

A grown up cat.
BTW: nailed it.

Lumberjack.

I wanted to be a professional bowler, but you had to consort with such an unsavory crowd…how I ended up here, I don’t know…
A major-league baseball player. My aspiration was foiled by the fact that I couldn’t hit, throw, or run short distances very well; it it had been a mile from home plate to first base I would have done much better, although I still wouldn’t have been able to hit or throw.
So I became a software developer. That and my 1998 Corolla get me all the hot chicks.
Well a 1998 Corolla will certainly get you to the Drive-Thru at KFC.
