Bright colors, because they aren't as complex as neutral tones.

AV or Component cable?

Component cables. I trust them more than the AV on TV screen menu. Easier to handle.

Open in new tab OR open in new window?

New tab. New windows are so 20th century.

Niqqud. They are small compared to consonants, so they can be added without retranscribing texts whose writers did not anticipate them.

Also better video quality.

New tab. I hate having windows all over my screen.

Catchphrases. I love FFVIII’s “Whatever” for example.

Open chords or bar chords?

Barre chords. Players often use this chording technique to play a chord that is not restricted by the tones of the guitar's open strings.

Bold, because that way it becomes clearer that there's something important in a sentence.

Rayman 2 style. To me, he looks less goofier.

A surprisingly confounding question.
I'll say "announcements". It's more thrilling to find out that something is being made than to see more of what's going to be in it, I think.

Billy Joel or Mongolian throat-singers?

I don't know these singers, so I can't choose.

Glitch exploiting as it's more fun to try do when everyone can try the same glitch out.

HDMI or DisplayPort?

HDMI, I honestly don't know why DisplayPort even exists...

Wash yourself with a sponge or bare hands?

DP is really only useful if you need enough bandwidth to do over 120hz in 1080p but I'm sure even HDMI will somehow adapt to that in the end. Not that it's necessary at all on any TV set.

Was bare hands for a while but I got one of those little shower sponge thingys now so sponge.

CRT or LCD?

For my PS1, N64 and even PS2, CRT all the way. Anything newer though I'd go LCD.

Do you wear similar clothes every day or have a large variety of clothes styles?

Same opinion here on the CRT vs LCD scenario

Similar clothes. Usually just a pair of tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt. Most of my pairs are grey.

Beard or clean shaven?

I don't see how anyone could enjoy anything below PS2/Gamecube/Xbox on an HD tv, the aspect ratio looks like garbage. Even the 'fixes' such as setting it back to 4:3 with borders look unappealing.

Yup. 4:3 CRT all the way for PS2, XBOX and Gamecube and anything older. LCD for PS3, XBOX 360 and up. I'd probably even use the original Wii on a CRT for certain titles.

Edit: It kills me a little inside when someone hooks up a system like a NES to a HDTV :tssk:
