I like asking people what their favorite playing card is, and acting confused if they don't have one (but about half the time they either already had one or are willing to make one up to play along).

That's funny. I don't particularly have an opinion about playing cards but I thought of one immediately when I read that.

My favorite is the ten of diamonds; what's yours? :)

Jack of hearts. Why yours?

The ten of diamonds is the "good ten", and worth two points (more than any other single card) in cassino, my favorite card game. Why the jack of hearts?

Highly ranked enough to be human, but humble among them. Hearts connotes sociality (on that test I lean towards diamonds, but if we're talking about real life rather than gaming I'm much more a heart).
