Sure do.
Given a choice between reading a good book and going to a big party, four times out of five TNP would choose the party.
Golly, it's tough to answer this question. How big is the party? Do I know the people there? If I know the people and it isn't too huge, or if I know the people and there's an activity I can get behind, then probably True.
TNP once worked a night shift.
Not yet, but if the opportunity arises, I'd like to try it for a while.

TNP spends 45 minutes/month or more, on average, ironing.

TNP doesn't own a radio (except in their car).

The next poster lives in a town of fewer than 3 million people.
Yes, and so does everyone else in Sweden.
The next poster used to be fairly good at a sport in their younger days, but not anymore.

TNP would love to own a Winnebago, or similar top class mobile home.
To sleep, perchance to experience amygdalocortical activation and prefrontal deactivation.

"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

The next poster has cheated on a spouse, partner or significant other.

I could go without both infinitely, but if I have to choose between sex and internet access I'll go with sex every time.
The next poster is fucking annoyed and will tell us with what.
True - it's only just building, but the constant drone of hedgecutters and lawnmowers everytime we have a fucking dry spell, is driving me to distraction. In fact, it's not a 'drone', it's the full-throated whirr of a buzzsaw. Aaaaarghhhh!
TNP has a tried and trusted relaxation method.
To sleep, perchance to experience amygdalocortical activation and prefrontal deactivation.
