This week's topic is Deep Questions: We’ll be doing rounds where you spend 6 minutes talking to someone else answering a big question (possibly with only a small answer).
Example questions:
What in life gets you really excited?
What do you hope they say in your obituary?
What's something that's worth about as much to you as one of your pinky fingers?
Note: The questions are deep, but your answers don't need to be. There's no expectation that participants will share any more than they're comfortable with.
About the Meetup
The North Oakland meetup is intended as a fun, low-key social space with some structured interaction, where new and non-new community members can mingle and have interesting conversations. Everyone is welcome, and RSVPs are never required.
We meet every Wednesday in Oakland at 6:15, with a rotating variety of topics but don't generally start the meetup topic until 6:45-7:00 to accommodate stragglers, and even later arrivals are also welcome. Often there is a food delivery order that goes out before we start the meetup topic.
We explicitly encourage people to split off from the main conversation or diverge from the topic if that would be more fun for them (moving side conversations into a separate part of the space if appropriate). Meetup topics are here as a tool to facilitate fun interaction, and we certainly don't want them to inhibit it.
