1. You'll be shunned as a rube
Just kidding. That's what I'd do. I hate martinis. Go for it.

7.  work's been so slow the last month that I've been on
A bit in the daytime, but generally my new job doesn't allow for it - too damned busy

4. Sacrilege...
hehe...but, seriously, you might try a martini with vodka instead of gin or a twist of lemon peel instead of olive and see if you like it any better. My personal choice when it comes to martinis is Bombay Sapphire and a twist...most other gins are too piney, and olives make me want to hurl.

5. Depends upon the case of beer you're bringing
-It has to be in bottles, unless it's draught in a can, but you must bring mugs.
-Anything with "Lite" or "Light" in the title of the beer should earn you a assbeating from either the host or one of the guess.
-Imports and Micro-Brews are the best for that situation, but if you bring a maistream beer make sure it's something like "Sam Adams" or "Rolling Rock".
