What was the most complex/longest/confusing sentence you ever wrote?

Upwards of 75 words, I think. Generally my sentences are long, multi-clausal, and kind of wordy, if not overly descriptive. The sentence in question is for a history essay (got an "A", too), though I can't seem to remember which one. I'll have to keep looking.

 

Which birth order position are you (and among how many others, if applicable)?

What is your most important inspiration in living your daily life? 

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Jeez, that's kind of a weighty question.  My inspiration for my daily life?  You mean like what motivates me every day?  Probably my family and my writing.  Helping my students and colleagues is up there, too.  If you mean like what influences me, then probably super hero comic books, Led Zeppelin and Incubus, and Star Wars, with a hint of James Bond and American muscle cars thrown in for spice.

 

What is in your room with you right now?

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Just myself, my computer and some Tame Impala playing.
