Okay, just because I feel so appreciated, (http://forums.questionablecontent.net/index.php/topic,16563.0.html) I thought we could try a game, that I've done on other forums. It's ushually pretty interesting.
The point: You try to come up with the most randomest/interesting/oddest question of all times to ask the person below you. Also, you have to answere honestly the question of person above you.
So, say their was a post above this one, I would answere that and than ask another question but since their isn't, I'm just going to ask a question. See? (Hopefully you do... or I'm just dismal at explaining things...) Oh and I'm sorry if you guys have already played this or somthing...

You're assuming my spouse won't also be my celebrity crush.
Where are my car keys?

40 years back, hidden under a volcanic rock, somewhere in Maine.
Do you want to have a room in your house just for being naked?
-
Only if you're there with me, all the time, and it's simultaneously way-awkward and completely normal. We'll play Xbox and Texas Hold-'em and have a few beers and just generally relax.
If you could say one thing to everyone in the world, simultaneously, what would it be?
-
No, every room in my house is for being naked.

-
Only if you're there with me, all the time, and it's simultaneously way-awkward and completely normal. We'll play Xbox and Texas Hold-'em and have a few beers and just generally relax.
Beer is not my thing. It would have to be whiskey mixed with coke. A friend said that it is great
-
40 years back, hidden under a volcanic rock, somewhere in Maine.
If they're hidden really well they might still be there! Anyone in Maine fancy having a wee look for me?
-
As long as it's not in a town called Derry, I'll be happy to have a look-see

I think it's fairly obviously, hmm-hmm...

If you had to give up either kissing or cuddling for the rest of your life, which would you keep?

I think I'd keep cuddling.
What is the most revolting thing you've had on your feet

After working a 13 hour bar shift at a big Uni festival thing I pulled my boots off and warm, smelly beer poured out. Other than that my boots get covered in milk every day at work and they smell like baby vomit.
What was your favourite game to play as a child?
-
i loved twister!
have you ever had stagefright?

(http://How much wood would a wood-chuck chuck if a wood-chuck could chuck wood?)
-
New question
If you were offered the chance to live another fifteen years, in which time you could not die no matter how stupid you were, but at the end of the fifteen years you are going to die, would you take it, or live normally?
-
Live normally. I'm only 26 - I could have at least another 75 years in me. (On the other hand, I've always wanted to jump off of buildings and bridges without dying. Or see what it feels like to get shot or electrocuted. Or drink two gallons of cheap whisky in one night. Or take as many drugs as I could possibly afford.)
Who would play your mother in the movie of your life?
-
I would live normally. I'd be tempted though, because there's definitely plenty of fun shit I could do if I didn't have to worry about dying, but ultimately most of that stuff is pretty selfish and solitary since noone else could be as reckless as me, and so I'd probably get bored of that stuff well before the 15 years are up and then I'd go back to chilling out with friends.
Is there anything you really want to do but you won't because of some minor downside?
ADDITION: geez, play my mother? I have no idea.
-
I -really- want to get my eyebrow peirced, but I can't because of my stupid job...fuck you, Wal*Mart...fuck you.
How many pairs of shoes do you own?
-
29.
What is your craziest "on drugs" story? (People who don't/have never taken drugs are not allowed to answer this question. I don't mean to discriminate, just a "drugs are lame" answer is going to amuse no one).
-
The time my friend and I went to get drugs from a guy that lived in the crappiest 3 bedroom house I've ever seen. There was a giant hole in the floor. The guy was a giant hell's angel-lookin' fella, but we started talking and I got a copy of Kill Bill 2 from him. He had a ferret named Snowball.
Edited because I'm trying to be LESS offensive:
If you could say one thing to everyone, and actually have them listen to you (i.e. do what you said), what would it be?
-
Ladies and Gentleman, Unleash your inner Ninja and get to the love and sexing
Pool or Air Hockey
-
Pool and Air Hockey are both great things, pool because hearing the balls go 'clink' is awesome, and because you can pull trick shots and everyone thinks you are cool, and you feel really skilful when you get a ball in nicely. Air Hockey is fast moving fun that gets the adrenalin going - Overall I'd say pool I guess.
What is your favourite thing to get when you eat out?
-
lobster/fisherman's platter.
What would your super power be?
-
Time Freezing. I think it would be cool
What is the single worst joke somebody has ever told you?

Susi has got three teddy bears. Mom asks: "How many more?"
Okay. That was it. It doesn't get better in the original language.
Global Warming, yay or nay?
-
yay, global warming!
(http://img108.imageshack.us/img108/8279/ft7mq.jpg) ?
-
Yes please.

Vegemite.

What's the longest you've gone without washing?
-
warning warning this thread is gradually descending into one-word-answer pointlessness
Also, that question is a repeat.
-
I've gone about a month without a wash during the summer when I wasn't going anywhere or doing anything.
What is the strangest band/artist/musical group you find yourself enjoying?
-
I'd have to say Stemage. Not just a video game cover band, but an exclusively Metroid video game cover band.
What's so civil about war, anyway?
-
Politeness and proper protocol can make even the nastiest war civil. Just remember to say "please" before shooting anyone in the head. And remember! It's polite to return the favor.
So, do YOU like Circus Peanuts and why or why not?
-
I would say I do not. But that is because I have absolutely no idea what Circus Peanuts are. If you are referring to peanuts one would buy and consume while attending the circus, then I do like them. But only if they are salted. Hmmmm....
Which of the following would you most prefer: A puppy, a pretty flower from your sweetie or a large, properly formatted data file?
CHOOSE
-
God damn I love puppies but I have to go with the large properly formatted data file. Pretty flowers are worthless.
What do you think is the point to snowmen? Simply winter lawn decorations you have to make every year or something more sinister?
-
Haven't you ever read Calvin and Hobbes? Snowmen were evil fuckers.
What would your blues name be?
-
Unspeakable Horror Nz'raeth (Lovecraftian Blues).
What would your space zombie blues name be?
-
Hyperdrive Gronthar.
Why does everyone at work think I'm gay?
-
Because pink is fashionable.
Why is Harry Potter so popular?
-
Because he kicked Voldemort's ass repeatedly.
Bands when they are young, or bands when they've released a few records?
-
Hmmm...after they've released a few records, but not after they have actually gained a lot of popularity.
What is the most annoying thing/phrase you hear on a daily basis?
-
'Technically', I hear it more often then my own breathing.
What's your worst memory about food?
-
Putting too much crushed red pepper on my pizza and dying from the flames.
What's the first computer you can remember using?
-
A Commodore 64.
Do you have a landliine or a cellphone or both?
-
I have both, but i hate my landline
Ninja vs Pirate vs Cowboy, who wins?
-
Pirates!
(http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a300/calenlass/19ohnine2006/DSCF0033.jpg)
Always pirates.
What makes you particularly gassy?
-
Taco Bell, that's why I avoid it. Plus it tastes horrible.
What would you do if you found a wallet on the ground with $9,000 cash in it?
-
Unless it's full of 1,000 bills (do those even exist?) there's no way to fit that much in a wallet. Assuming it is 1,000 bills, I'd take one, and then turn the wallet over to a police station.
Which would disturb you more, being forced to listen to country music for 5 hours straight, or enjoying it?
-
I like country music, so neither would bother me in the least.
What if it was a really big wallet?
-
I'd probably still turn it in...
Which late night talk-show host do you prefer and why?
-
Conan O'Brian, because I'm pretty sure he's not secretly a robot.
Are you doing anything tonight, baby?
-
Going to the pub to not drink through lack of money and not smoke because of the smoking ban.
Why am I going to the pub again?
-
Because you;re lonely and British.
Why?
-
And z.
Pavement are totally awesome, yes?
-
Summer babe was kind of catchy
The Fall are totally awesome, yes?
-
Autumn is pretty rad, yeah. I like how the leaves change and it gets colder. Perfect weather for a scarf and a mug of tea, watching cute girls in scarves walk about town. By far my favourite season.
"Now is the winter of our discontent" is, in my opinion, one of the greatest Shakespeare lines. What is one of your favourite quotes (by anybody) and why?
-
[You know, just to be annoying, I should probably point out that your quote continues "made glorious summer by this son of York". i.e. In context the speech actually implies is "the winter of our discontent" is over.]
Shakespeare's just got so many amazing passages it's hard to choose (I know you said by anyone, but hey, the guy could, at his best, out-write anyone). Personally, my favourite has always been:
"conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er, with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment,
With this regard turn their currents awry,
And lose the name of action."
Mainly because it seems to apply to so much (not just, you know, contemplating death); it perfectly fits any time you find yourself overthinking or procrastinating to the point of irresolution.
Also pretty much the entire "What a piece of work is a man" speech, not least because it equisitely ends Withnail & I.
[New question with more sequentialness: Is there anything more satisfying than getting a perfect slinky run all the way to the bottom of the stairs?
slinky...spring...geddit? ... Sorry.]
-
[You know, just to be annoying, I should probably point out that your quote continues "made glorious summer by this son of York". i.e. In context the speech actually implies is "the winter of our discontent" is over.]
Not annoying at all. I specifically left it out for two reasons: Kai already mentioned Summer and I was hoping that the reply to my question had "Spring" somewhere in it.
-
Gah! How did I not spot that sequence? Now I just feel silly.
Incidently, the above is not a question.
Well, it is, but not a game question thing. You know what I mean. Plus the answer is totally obvious.
-
Uh,
What's the best "that's what she said" joke you have ever come across?
-
Toss up between;
DUDE- hurry up and eat that sub
chill out, its not like I can get it all in at once
thats what she said!
AND
You poke that thing at me one more time, I'll break it in half!
That's what she said!
What's your worst thanksgiving experience?
-
The year all of the kids decided that my great-grandfather's plug tobacco was a chocolate bar, and we all lined up to get a piece, including me, of course. I was almost at the head of the line.
Who is the grandest tiger in the jungle?
-
Errr...Sher Kan? Was that a trick question? I don't get it, and he's the only Jungle Tiger I know. Damn you, Disney.
Why in the hell am I watching Bob the Builder?!
-
Horrid drug habit. Or you're used to having small kids around.
How does one escape the Bulgars?
-
You don't escape; you magic missile the fuck out of them.
Edit: Shit, I read bugbears. Err... still works, I guess.
How many Poke mans do I need to catch before I can find true love?
-
All of them.
Why the fuck can I not stop listening to the song Marley and Marley?
-
If you think catching pokemans is going to find you true love, you're doing it wrong. You need to catch girls. (Or boys, if that's your thing.) An unmarked van works well. And candy - lots of candy. Once you catch them, it helps to tie them up, and maybe gag them. That way the screaming isn't so loud.
What would you give up to never have a hangover again, no matter how much you drink the night before?
(and if you say "alcohol" as your response, or "I don't drink" or "alcohol is against my religion" or some other crap like that, so help me Jeebus, I will find out where you live, purchase a plane ticket to the nearest airport to your home, fly there, rent a car, drive to your house, knock on your door and when you answer it, punch you in the stomach.)
-
Boozingtons.
-
I never get hangovers. In the rare case that I do, they are very very slight. Such as a tiny headache in the morning. (I have tow front doors, so good luck picking the one I occasionally answer.)
More taxes + Better "free" health care, or less taxes + less free health care/clinics?
-
If you don't get hangovers, you're obviously not drinking enough.
And Shane, you suck.
-
I think puking my guts out twice in one night, and then on a different night puking my guts out threes times, and breaking someone's shower is drinking more than enough.
However, I haven't drank in about two weeks. I haven't been drunk in about a month, though.
-
I don't drink. I rely on the overwhelming weight of the world and the acute, stinging memory every lost opportunity I squandered to dull my sense and lull me into a stupor.
As for your query, vive le healthcare! (I am Canuck)
Tough one: Blue Sky Blue Sky Blue Sky or Yankee Hotel Foxtrot?
EDIT: I was totally listening to the title track when I wrote this post. My father's dyslexic, and I get that way sometimes.
-
It's Sky Blue Sky, actually. Either way I pick Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.
What's your favorite kind of ballroom dancing?
-
The kind where I don't have to be involved. Or a waltz. At least I can do it. I am not what one would call graceful.
There are two doors in front of you. One door leads to certain death, the other to relative safety. Both doors have a guard (that is, each door has it's own guard). One of the guards always tells the truth, the other always lies. You are only allowed to ask one guard one question before you choose your door. How do you find out which door will lead you to safety?
Darryl, Edith, Oli and possibly Eris are not allowed to answer this one.
-
OOOOH!!!! I know this, I know this... I love puzzles like these.
You ask either guard which door the other guard would say leads to safety and then you take the other door cause you've insured to include the lie in the answer.
Edited to put in a question:
What would you do if your crazy old lady of a neighbour suddenlt barged in to your apartment and started swearing at your husband when the both of you were just sitting there in your skivvies minding your own business and watching tv? (This actually happened to me last night)
-
Why the fuck can I not stop listening to the song Marley and Marley?
As in WE'RE MARLEY AND MARLEY OOOOOOOooooOOOoooHHHHHhhh! from Muppet's Christmas Carol?
If so you win 5 internets.
-
Doooooooooomed Scrooge, you're doomed for all time! Your future is a horror story written by your crime (http://youtube.com/watch?v=VsiKOJOXMJU)
I went so far as to download the soundtrack version, which is extended and even better.
In response to the last question: I would stand up with my significant other and start singing Marley and Marley.
Am I the only guy in the world who has a thing for Maura Tierney?
-
I honestly don't really know who Maura Tierney is, but if GIS is to be believed she's pretty hot. So I'm gonna say no on this one.
You remember that one game where you gathered all those things to save that girl?
-
Shit yeah, that was a great game.
What the fuck is a GIS?
-
Google Image Search.
Do you know...the muffin man?!
-
I do. We asked that question already. Dude works at Government Center.
Why is A-Rod such a shitty fielder?
-
Maybe he needs a new glove?
-
No.
Should Obsessions let some other people ask/answer questions?
-
Well, it's not his fault that he's the only one about...
What is in your pockets, right now? And if there is nothing, what would like to be in your pockets?
-
Well he could, you know, "stop posting"? Also Obsessions you need to upload "Marley and Marley" to the sendspace thread.
Chapstick and phone are in my pockets!

Or something.
Haikus or Limericks?
-
Haikus are easier.
What WILL you do when they come for you?
-
Kick some ass.
How many meals can you stand of being solely ramen?
-
Err...I can go weeks surving only on Ramen. Ramen is delicious --but it has to be stove top ramen. The cup stuff is gross.
What is your favorite movie quote?
-
"'The earth is my body and my head is in the stars.'...Who said that?"
"I don't know."
"I guess I did."
Whats a good song to fall asleep to?

Iron and Wine - The Rooster Moans.
Guys or chicks?
-
Guys.

Not unless it is super cold, otherwise I tend to kick them off and loose them.
Sexy teacher or sexy nurse? (Didn't we have a thread related to this once?)
-
Hm... teacher.

-
Is the woodchuck a lady?

perhaps
are you going to look?
-
Stop with the one-word replies, please, you fucks.
-
A real answer to Mikagon's question: That's a difficult question. I would have to say the ones that have made me reevaluate some aspect of my view of reality as I see it, whether that is a belief I held or a look into a new genre of humour or just a different perspective on, say, how dogs think. This would mostly be authors whose books I read as a kid, but are not to exclude Tolkien or Orwell or Mary Stewart or Wilde or Asimov or my personal scifi favourites, Lackey, Pratchett, Fallon, and Friedman.
I am a personal fan of scotch, bourbon, and whiskey in any of its lovely manifestations. What is your favourite booze and why?
-
Harvey's Best Bitter is my favourite alcoholic beverage at the moment, due to its nutty taste and how smoothly it goes down. also it gets you a nice calm drunk and is easy to pace yourself with.
Do you like ales? And if not, why not?
-
I got a nutty taste that'll go down real smooth for you pete.
-
Do you know why it's nutty?
-
Because it comes from my nuts.
-
Seriously though, Ale is amazing, and I vastly prefer it to Lager when it comes to beer.
Recently all I've really been drinking is IPA's(India Pale Ale's) which are much more strongly hopped than traditional ales, and also tend to have a higher %abv. The hoppyness gives them a wonderful bitterness, and the best of them also have really great notes of grapefruit in them that is just instant boners.
Also in the ale family, and also fucking amazing, are Stouts. I will drink Russian Imperial Stouts till the day I die. I like my beers, or at least my stouts, so dark that I can hold them up to the light and not see through them. I like stouts I can fucking chew, stouts that are a meal in them selves. Old Rasputin or Victory Stormking, both Russian Imperials, are my favourites.
If you could ban any other poster on this forum, who would it be, and why.

This would mostly be authors whose books I read as a kid, but are not to exclude Tolkien or Orwell or Mary Stewart or Wilde or Asimov or my personal scifi favourites, Lackey, Pratchett, Fallon, and Friedman.
Because Don Delillo isn't my favourite author? Because I don't have a large body of his work on my bookshelf? Because authors like Bret Easton Ellis don't name him as one of their major influences and he isn't considered one of the most influential novelists of his time? Because unlike Lackey and Pratchett (who are fun to read but in terms of merit, crap) he doesn't have any literary worth?
Please, my answer was real and to the point, I answered all he asked for.
-
Indeed, all that was implied in the phrase "a real answer".
Part of the problem is people asking sissy-assed questions.
-
Oh you two, go take your relationshiparguments someplace private. Different people like different authors, arguing over it is just silly and pointless.
If I could ban anyone, I wouldnt ban anyone as banning isnt really a nice thing. Shouting at people is more fun to.
If the difference between a firemanshat and a mosquito is a cookie, what kind of cookie would it be?
-
A small cookie that tasted bitter and bitty I reckon. Very small cookie.
I like sitting by the sea. I often go and do it before work in the evening (I work right on the beach).
When you want to relax/gather your thoughts/plot world domination where do you like to go?
-
duh, in the bathroom. What better place for deep thinkings than when you're on the shitter?
What is your weirdest fear?

Be the change you want to be in the world. I don't see you asking any decent questions.
I'm terrified of my chef knife. It's extremely sharp and pretty large and I constantly worry that I am going to either trip and cut myself, or sleepwalk down the stairs and accidently stab myself with it.
Why do you suppose that automobile design has become so bland, across almost all markets and brands, of late?
-
Probably because nobody cares anymore. I mean, almost everyone has a car and it's a pretty taken-for-granted type of invention. In earlier times I suspect people were all "Oh wow! Look at this cool thing that let's us go places fast! Let's see if we can't make it even cooler!!" However I like the design of some cars now. I really really want a Mazda RX6 (not just because it was the car in Xmen 2) because it is a really nice looking machine. I also want a 1969 Dodge Charger but I think that might come under the cars that were a little bit more interesting in terms of raised angles and lines and whatnot.
What is one thing you would change about your significant other? It can be physical but it can also be anything. People not in relationships need not reply.
-
Dammit you're too fast.
But for Dan's question I think it has more to do with increasingly strict design and safety standards than with designers not wanting to show off. The more rules you impose on the design the fewer shapes that fit the rules there are and you run out of room for anything bold and new. The regulations are also built around the accepted design for the shape of a car so they kindof re-inforce that this is the way it should be.
I suppose it's also easier to sell people things they know and are comfortable with already.

Absoloutely nothing. She is perfect and wonderful and I love her dearly just the way she is.
If you could kill someone, and be absoloutely sure you were going to get away with it, would you? Who would you choose. Would you still do it just for the thrill, if it had to be a complete stranger?
-
If I were to kill someone it would be someone who deserved it by my standards, like a rapist/high-school athlete. Somebody that world would be better without. I would probably enjoy it at the time, but I would not mutilate the body for the sake of the family. I would leave it mostly intact in a place that would be convenient so that it would be found before decaying too much.
Do you like to give oral sex?

it's one of my favorite things to do in the world.
metaphysical poetry. lovely and witty or just really annoying?

Really annoying. Mind you, I fnid poetry in general fairly annoying, and unless one of my -bestest- friends in the whole word wrote it (and insists for my feedback, despite my claims that poetry is not my thing), or I find something that really strikes me as worthwhile, I don't ususally touch the stuff. I prefer a story, which I just don't get from poetry most of the time. Just me though, it seems a lot of the word rather likes it. Silly world.
What is the most awkward question you have ever been posed, and what was it's answer? (Ooh, another two parter... Just my way of keeping away frmo the short answers, I guess).

I have no idea to what you are refering
My mistake. It was Daniel and Hairy Joe Bob, not Dirk Hopeless that have the Harry Potter slashfic in their sigs.

What is the most awkward question you have ever been posed, and what was it's answer? (Ooh, another two parter... Just my way of keeping away frmo the short answers, I guess).
The most awkward question I have ever been posed was what was I doing completely covered in a blanket riding on a bus filled with my team mates to our next competition while having a light on underneath the blanket and giggling hysterically. The answer I gave was that I was laughing at the shadow puppets I was making that looked better then your mom. In reality I was just texting a friend who happens to be extremely funny when drunk. I was cold and I like blankets. Enough said.
So here's my apparently shitty question; What the fuck is up with World of Warcraft?
-
It's got like spellz and shit. Crazeeeee!
What is your favourite fruit and why?
-
Pomegranates! And why.... erm... it's tasty? I know the short answer thing has got people in a huff, but seriously, pomegranate = nectar of the gods, and you're a facist/commie/liberal/nazi/godless heathen/insert hated group here if you don't like 'em.
What hobby did you used to be into then dropped out of?
-
Dungeons and Dragons. I stopped playing when I moved to this country because it wasn't nerdy enough for me.
What do you think would make for the worst neighbor?
-
The crazy cat lady from the simpsons. Cat crap would be everywhere; your life would never be the same again.
What's the most unbelievable thing thats happened in your life that you swear is true?
-
pomegranate = nectar of the gods
I would just like to point out that it is actually the food of the dead... Ambrosia is the food of the gods (a type of grape? I'm not sure).
-
pomegranate = nectar of the gods
I would just like to point out that it is actually the food of the dead... Ambrosia is the food of the gods (a type of grape? I'm not sure).
Nectar is the drink of the gods, ambrosia is the food of the gods. Ambrosia is probably honey although no one's really sure. Anyway, to answer the post two up from this, I will preface my answer by saying I never have chinese leftovers in my house. Ever. Ok, this is 100% true: One night I came home late. I was hungry so I rooted through the fridge. There were some random brown paper bags which I didn't bother looking in, cheese, chocolate, deli meat, peanut butter ect.
I settled on some chocolate and then went down to my computer. I logged onto my facebook account and went to update my status. I typed, "I am hungry and therefore I am eating chocolate." Somehow this seemed incomplete so I decided to add something. I don't know why but for some strange reason the words "cold dumplings" popped into my head. I hadn't eaten, seen, or even thought about dumplings in several weeks at least. But that's what came to me. So I added it to my status so it read, "I am hungry and therefore I am eating chocolate and cold dumplings."
A bit later I went to bed. I woke up the next morning, did some work, bummed around on the computer ect. Around lunch time, hungry again, I went upstairs. I opened my fridge and was greeted by the same site as the night before. I looked around and saw nothing appealing. In my frustration, I randomly grabbed one of the brown paper bags and opened it. Inside was a white Styrofoam container. I set it down on the counter top, opened it up, and froze. Inside, in a large pile, were several cold dumplings.
That's my story. It's the most unbelievable thing that's happened to me and no one I tell it to believes me but I swear it's true.
Anyways: What is one intensely embarrassing moment from your childhood that will likely stay with you for life?
-
My mom has a movie of my cousin and I in the bathtub, singing all these horrible songs, and talking like valley girls. It's pretty embarassing.
What should I eat for breakfast? Taquitos, pumpkin cheese cake, lemon ice cream cake, or something actually breakfasty(like eggs, and sausage)?
-
I think you should go out and find yourself some French Toast. French Toast is about the greatest thing ever and it's just ever so hard to really fuck up. Every time I go out drinking, I get some french toast the next morning.
What kind of bikes to you prefer? Harley style classic bikes or newer Kawasaki types and all that? Why?

Are you one of those people who claim to hate Facebook but have a Facebook anyways?
-
I don't hate facebook and I do have one. But I do not like the creepy direction they have been going and the applications you can add are getting a bit annoying.
What is your favorite seasoning/herb?
-
Oregano. I think.
There are just so many good ones out there, just so many delicious things to add. It feels so wrong picking one above the rest! What about Basil, Cilantro, Thyme, Garam Masala, Coriander, Cumin, Fennel...
But Oregano usually works with whatever I'm cooking. And it's the one my dad loves, so I guess it's still my favorite.
Of the past dozen albums you've listened to, how many of them do you actually own?

I would have to say I probably REALLY owned about 2/12. At school, there is a semi-legal loophole where all the computers on the network can swap music and video files, and I got a phenomenal amount of good new music that way. It is a bit shady and probably will be closed down soon, but this way I can be a poor college kid and still explore new music. I think most people in my age bracket rationalize music theft to a certain extent, the internet just makes it seem so easy and non-criminal.
When people talk about ticks or lice, does it make you feel really itchy and uncomfortable, even if you know full well you havn't been anyplace you could have picked up either?
-
Yes, yes it does. Your mere mention right there just sent my back into a ridiculous itching situation the likes of which I've not felt since allergy testing (Worst thing ever).
At a bar, do you prefer to go out and dance or chill at the bar shooting the shit with random people? Don't forget the why, I'm all for the nice, detailed answers.
-
I do both, really. I get a drink and then go elsewhere and maybe dance. I don't like sitting at the bar, mostly, because when you're sitting along the bar and it's loud, it's hard to talk to the people on the ends if there's more than three people. So usually it's get the drinks and either stand in a circle or sit at a table. Or dance, if there's decent music.
Which chocolate is best: white, milk, or dark?
-
Hm... I like white chocolate the most, I guess. Probably because I don't eat it as much as milk or dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is good, but I have to be in the mood for it.
What's the weirdest thing to happen to you at work?
-

What's the weirdest thing to happen to you at work?
Around Halloween, I got asked by this guy if there was a sea cucumber isle. (I work in a craft store.) He supposedly needed to find stuff for a costume.
If you're outside and running around in the grass, do you take off your shoes or leave them on?
-
Depends on where I am. Certain parts of St. Louis(my hometown), no. Most places in Edwardsville(Where I live now), sure. My front yard, no.
St. Louis: I wouldn't recommend running barefoot in any city really. Especially in a junky one like St. Louis.
Edwardsville: It's a small farming town. Most of the people who live here really care about the environment. The grass is usually pretty clear of broken glass.
My front yard: Drunken college boys lived here before me. When I planted flowers out front, I found lots of broken glass. Cut my hands too. I wouldn't recommend wearing sandals out there.
What time should I try to call the place I'm trying to get a job at? They opened at 9:00, and it is now 10:10.
Edited to make more sense of my answer.

Hey fuck you, I am so itchy right now.
-
After my camping trip, I found a tick on the back of my leg. It was right behind my knee, infact. It had already bitten me, and I couldn't remove it on my own, so I had to have my mom pull it off. It was gross. We couldn't get the thing off for awhile. Finally my dad came in and asked us what the hell we were doing, and he finnally pulled the damn tick out. I think he left the head in though. I have a big red itchy bump where it bit me.
-
If he left the head in then the tick will grow back.
-

This means he failed. I think you should rub it in his face, maybe even question his manhood. Then he'll buy you a car!
-

I didn't know that. That's gross.
Joe, he wouldn't buy me a car. He would never buy me a car. Nor would he ever admit to it being his fault.
-
This is why I like being from the North. Sure, in the summer we've got black flies and mosquitoes, but there ain't no fricken ticks leaving their heads inside my body, or creepy ass spiders trying to irradiate my legs. Just bugs out for blood and some wolves/bears that would eat me in a moment. Those I can deal with.
-
Wait, how far north are you talking about? I'm sure there aren't any ticks at the North Pole, but there are still tons of ticks in the woods of, say, New England.
-
Yeah, I've grown up in New England and ticks are a big thing up here.
Also, how far north do I have to go to find these irradiated spiders? I want super powers.
-
It's a bit late now to answer, but I think you should have called them right around when you posted the question. Long enough for them to finish up opening stuff, but before any major rush. Time-sensitive questions are no good!
When did you first learn to swallow pills whole? Some particular disease/issue where you absolutely had no choice, when you reached a certain age, after you started giving head, whatever.
-
Oh man, I got bite by so many things that camping trip. Horseflies, ticks, people. But thankfully no fucking mosquitoes. God, I hate those things.
Redglasscurls, I called them probably 10 minutes after I asked.
Also, I've always had the ability to swallow pills whole.
So which pie sounds better, lemon ice cream pie, or pumpkin cheesecake with an almond and pecan crust?
-
Oh, man, the pumpkin cheesecake sounds delicious! That one, for sure. I didn't have a question in mind, I just really, really wanted to answer that one.
EDIT: Okay, what should I have for lunch? My options are PB&J, leftover pasta, or dry cereal.
-
PB&J. Leftover pasta is always soggy and gross, while dry cereal is boring and unimaginative.
What was the cause of your last really bad mood. I'm not talking "Gah, I'm pissy" I'm talking you want to crank up some bad thrash music and beat the ever living fuck out of something.

ticks are kinda like leaches, but leaches are fun cuz you can a) burn them or b) melt them off with salt.
oh yeh you bastards.... enjoy my blood while you can then TASTE MY SALT!

The whole idea of melting leeches off with salt hurts me.

Depends. Not only do you need a bunter that can ensure he stays between the foul lines, but also fast enough to beat out the bunt.
So pretty much if you're Ichiro Suzuki, yes. Otherwise, just pray for a blooper over the infield.

Dear SilentJ,
I've noticed you've made some attempts to play along in this game with everyone. However, I don't think you are all too clear on the rules. Here's some helpful hints.
Gameplay:
Poster one asks a question.
Poster two answers and asks another question.
Poster three answers, and ask yet another question.
Repeat.
Tips:
One word answers are frowned upon.
Same goes for one word questions.
Try these helpful hints out. I hope you keep playing.
Take care,
Emaline

Well, since it's a lazy question, I shall provide a lazy answer: why not?

Guys, anyone remember the werewolf game? The werewolf game that has now been left to rot twice?
-
I don't remember the werewolf game. I pretty much figured it would have a lot of rules and shit, and say "meh" to the whole thing.
How do you play the werewolf game?
-
I'll make a wild guess and say that it involves biting people a lot. But I could be totally wrong
How do you feel about ground beef?

Check out this thread (http://forums.questionablecontent.net/index.php/topic,16352.450.html).
Regarding ground beef: I love it. (Only if it's cooked, though.) I like making hamburger patties and meatloaf out of it. Or tacos. Or bolognese sauce. It's pretty versatile.
What's one of the worst misteaks you've ever committed?
-
Oh, it's like murder in the dark.. but on a forum. Got it.
Worst mistake? Well, shit, there've been quite a few. I'd say being a silly little teen-aged girl in general (thirteen), and conducing an online relationship with a creepy old man with intentions to *one day* go be with him, more specifically. Yeah. That one's pretty fucking up there. (Nothing bad happened. Mom found out).
What's one of the best decisions you've made (to date) that changed the course of your life?

have you ever believed that you could fly?
-
No, but I've had a recurring dream since I was twelve that I could kinda do this weird hovering thing. If I would jump in the air and just sort of concentrate on it, I could zoom around about four feet of the ground.
So, speaking of recurring dreams, do you experience any?
-
I used to have some reoccurring dreams, but I don't anymore. Thankfully. Mine were scary.
Two part question! I'm thinking of backpacking, either in Europe, or Canada. I speak very very little French, but can usually figure out words after examining them for a bit. My first question is, do you think I'd survive? How much money do you think I'm going to need?
-
Well, three months in Europe, not including the cost of accomodation and travel, will cost roughly AU$3,000. I'm planning on going to China with AU$7,000 for a few months to take in the sites and just generally enjoy myself. I'm even training myself to like Chai. Oh, and yeah you'll probably survive.
What's your survival strategy when the zombie problem spills onto the streets?
-
Well there's a machete in my closet; that's about at far as i got. I'll probably try and secure a safe place to stay, water and food first.
Where did that one of you learn that ticks can regrow their bodies from their heads? That's a fallacy. They aren't starfish. You don't want to leave a tick's head in your skin because you could very well catch Lyme disease or any number of other unsavory illnesses, not because it will grow back.

Have you ever been to a luau? How was it?
-
No. Despite having many Hawaiian relatives, I've never been to a Luau. I have a lot of Hawaiian clothes though.
-
Oh look, no question to reply to. Let's answer the last one, eh?
Nope. Never been to a luau. However, I have had luau-ish food (some sort of *awesome* hamburger with pineapple or some such nonsense).
When you get a new product, do you immediately take all the stickers off (like the price tags on books, all the stupid "look with I can do!" stickers on computers, etc.)?
-
Yes, I do --particularly the stickers off of new books, because otherwise I tend to pick at them, and they get dirty and gross, so I just take away the temptation. I also typically take off the label from my pop bottles, though not right away.
Jelly beans. yay or nay (and what's your favorite flavor?)
-
hmmmm..... neither. green is pretty good, but in general, i'm not one to eat jelly beans. never really cared for the bunch... ESPECIALLY the specialty flavors, tropical whatsits and so forth. i don't particularly DISLIKE them either, though. meh.

I'm from Wisconsin. It's all "pop" here --of course, I use soda and pop interchangably, and when I want to be really clear about what I'm talking about, I say soda-pop.
Why the hell isn't there anything good on television?
-
It is definitely called "soda," not "pop."
There's nothing good on television because programming decisions are made by fat, old men who don't know shit.

Emaline, just saw the post. Thanks for keeping me in check!
In response to the last question, the weirdest dame I've ever played is actually one of my favorites for parties. None other than The Uncomfortable GameTM!
For those who do not know, the Uncomfortable Game is quite simple. One person tries to make another uncomfortable by any means necessary, If Person B can succeed in making Person A uncomfortable, they win. Conversely, if Person A never becomes uncomfortable, but Person B becomes uincomfortable in trying to make Person A uncomfortable, then Person A wins. Simple (uncomfortable)!
Is anybody feeling uncomfortable now? How about with the 10 total uses of the word "uncomfortable" in this post?
-
I play Gay Chicken with some of my friends sometimes, that's basically the Uncomfortable Game, isn't it? Some of my friends are better at it than others. For example, there's one who won't even let me hug him. While another grabbed my genitalia and wouldn't let go for a good few minutes of me shouting.
My leg's resting on a shelf pulled half out of my wardrobe. It's mildly uncomfortable, and I'm going to have a long dint in my skin from where the wood cut into me. I'm also getting slight pins and needles in my right foot.
I also feel rather uncomfortable because soon my best friend is going to find out that I told his girlfriend that he cheated on her.
Did you count how many times SilentJ said uncomfortable? Have you ever played the game he describes? Are there any other similar games that you play, or have seen played?
-
Gay chicken is pretty common among my friends.
One of my friends walked up to me once after I was hitting on him, and grabbed my junk full on. I stared at him, completely unfazed, until he screamed and ran off to wash his hands. I cracked up so much.
I have made out with a large number of dude friends now due to desensitizing each other on gayness.
It's okay.
Have you made out with a large percentage of your friends?
-
hm, no, not really. I've kissed a fair amount (including the ladies, usually on dares), but I've only "made out with" two, my fiance being one of them.
Have you ever decided to see what would happen if you let hair grow on part of your body that you usually shave?
-
Well, honestly, the only part of my body I shave on a regular basis is my armpit, and I HAVE seen it grow out to an extent. Honestly, that was enough for me. I have no desire to see it au natural.
What body parts do you shave?
-
Lower legs since I was 11 (these days I only do so like once a week), upper legs when I go to the beach, armpits since age 12 (every day without fail), and my arms since eighth grade when a boy called me a monkey.. and got everyone else to, as well. Those are what I'm letting grow back. It's not too bad, actually.
What is your most "interesting" memory of a day at the beach/pool/lake/river?
-
Wait, so you shave your armpits, but not your legs? I mean no offense, I just don't comprehend the idea. Why shave one, but not the other?
Anyways, I'll answer the next question:
Most interesting memory of a "day" at the beach is when I drove up to Hampton Beach at 2 AM to take pictures of the sunrise for my ex's birthday. Aside from being beautiful out, and very inspirational (I even wrote a poem in the sand, fun times), but I'd never seen early morning beach people. You know those nuts who go out there with metal detectors? Yeah, them.
I have decided that if it came down to never having a Wendy's Frosty or never receiving oral sex again, I think I would choose to give up head. Is there anyone else who feels this way?
-
No, because I work at Wendy's and HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT! If I never had a Frosty again, it means I'd deal a financial blow to Wendy's, so more power to me. Fuck them.
(And why do I shave the pits and not the legs? Well, pits are easy, quicker, are far less likely to cause me bleeding)
Why does Obsessions like Wendy's Frosties so much?
-
Probably for the same reason as I do: they are orgasmic. I'd give up oral sex in a heartbeat for frosties. Also, they're what I crave on my ladies days. Those and double doubles from In-N-Out.
Have you ever boycotted anything?
-
I boycotted Sony produced media for a time. I bought In Your Honor by the Foo Fighters wishing to rip it to my computer and use on my iPod, as I don't actually own a CD player anymore. After doing so, I found I couldn't put it on my iPod at all. Sony had decided to limit it to ripping in a copy protected WMA format, meaning it would not go on iPods. I swore not to buy another Sony product until a satisfactory resolution was reached.
The boycott was helpful, as I also signed on for a class action lawsuit filed against Sony. Said album's copy protection was legally a form of malware, so the suit won out and everyone signed on got a full refund and a gift code to download the album for free on iTunes. The justice system works, fuck yourselves Sony. I was eventually forced to buy Sony again when they distributed NewsRadio on DVD.
What is your single most prized possession and why? Note, pets and people are not possessions.

To be honest, there's nothing I own that would completely devastate me if I lost it or whatever. But if I had to choose, it would probably be the stuffed bear I've had since I was born... Coco Bear. I'm not obsessed with him or anything, but he is my oldest personal possession.
Do you have any bad habits?
-
i pick my nose. not just when there's no tissue around. i'll hold the tissue, pick my nose, and then wipe my finger. it's probably my favorite pastime aside from masturbation.
i moved from the city to more of a suburban area and the video store went from one block away to about 6 miles. how far is the closest video rental store from your house?
-
About 10 minutes. I live in a small, but very spread out country town. We have one Blockbuster.
I can go through about 2 gallons of orange juice in a day. It's almost my favorite juice, my favorite being a mixture of oranges, carrots, and tomatoes. What is your favorite juice?
-
I do not consume teh soda, but when I did I drank Pepsi. My mom preferred it, so that's what she bought and I drank.
If you could only listen to one song for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?
-
Probably the Eskimos song I've been loving. I have to listen to it everyday.
How long should the ideal mix cd be?
-
Probably the Eskimos song I've been loving. I have to listen to it everyday.
Do you have it in MP3 format or you listen to it on their/his Myspace?
If all the song/mix are goods, 2 hours should do it.
What is the most disgusting meal you ever ate?
-
Eskimos myspace. (http://www.myspace.com/eskinos)
-
This one time I made eggplant parmesan but I didn't salt the eggplant first so it was bitter as anything. Bitter like earwax. That's the worst I can remember.
Have you ever faked an orgasm?
-
oddly enough yes. one day while work was slow we had a contest where we tried to find out who could fake an orgasm the best. the looks on the faces of the customers was hysterical
what is the heaviest thing that you have thrown off your roof?
-
I'd be all for not pressing the button. I can see four options (assuming we're only going to work with one brother, two brothers adds complications) 1 we both press, and both die. 2 I press, he dies. 3 he presses I die. 4 neither press neither die. pressing the button gives me a 50/50 chance of survival but a certainty of my brother dying, not pressing still gives me a 50/50 chance of survival, but my brother would not.
for the bonus point, I think there's a similar quiz question to this in Knights of the Old Republic 1. but I doubt that's where it's originally from.
Are you planning on waiting in line to buy Harry Potter seven?
-
No, I'll be going to a 24-hour grocery and getting one in five minutes.
Do you prefer writing in pen or pencil (or other)? Why?
-
Pencil, because I'm paranoid that I will make a mistake. However, my writing can look pretty cool when I use ballpoint pen, so I use it when I want something to look kind of fancy.
which is better, Abbey Road or Revolver?
-
The second half of Abbey Road is basically the most amazing thing ever. I love Revolver, but Mean Mr. Mustard into Polythene Pam into She Came In Through the Bathroom window into Golden Slumbers makes me quiver with pleasure (orgasmic? perhaps).
Do you have a favorite parent? Or do you get along with both your parents equally?
-
stuff
That's called the Prisoner's Dilemma and it is generally based around serving time rather than dying. It measures how individualistic/competitive someone is.
Also, I dislike my Dad significantly less than I dislike my Mum. Possibly because he is not a neglectful, spiteful religious zealot. Possibly because he is vaguely reasonable if a little uptight. But probably because he seems to genuinely care about my wellbeing.
Are you particularly dextrous? Like, can you do that thing where you twiddle coins from one finger to the next?
-
No, I don't think so. But I've never really tried that coin trick out. If I had a quarter here, I'd try it, but the only change on the desk is some pennies. I'm not even gonna try with pennies.
I just got home from one of the shittiest dates ever. What was your worst date like?
-
Oh, this one's delightful:
I met out with this girl like two and a half years ago. She had recently broken up with a guy whom she was stuck still living with. Half the date was spent with her bitching about him. Eventually, we got onto the subjects of our family lives at which point she started talking about her alcoholic mother and abusive father and told me about the time she tried to kill herself. How is that shit NOT a social faux pas for a first date?! Needless to say, there was no second date, though I do appreciate her being batshit fucking loco the first time out, as usually you women wait until you've got us good and hooked before you reveal how absolutely god damn nuts you are (At least in my sordid experience).
I also had a girl confess to me about the miscarriage she had about eight years prior after our first time sleeping together. What's the most awkward thing someone has said to you right after the act?
-
you women
Yeah, guys never do this either.
-
Why can people never assume a sweeping generalization is just a joke? Is it really that difficult?
-
Sorry. shouldn't have been so quick. it just seemed serious from context.
-
Everything seems serious from the context on the internet. I could tell you right now that I just slept with your mother and she wasn't particularly generous about it. Given, it looks in context that I'm serious, but common sense would dictate if it were true, I'd have the common sense to not say it here.
-
I also had a girl confess to me about the miscarriage she had about eight years prior after our first time sleeping together. What's the most awkward thing someone has said to you right after the act?
I'm answering this because no one else has, and cos I've got a doozy:
"Wow, I could've sworn you were gay!"...
Next question: Have you ever caught yourself unconsciously singing/dancing/playing air guitar in public before? Were people watching?
-
the weirdest dame I've ever played
awesome typo

Next question: Have you ever caught yourself unconsciously singing/dancing/playing air guitar in public before? Were people watching?
Unconsciously, no. Consciously, yes.
What's the best vacation you've ever taken?
-
Probably my last trip to Cape Cod with my friends. It was an absolute blast. I brought my projector and we spent most of the weekend drunk and wasting time playing video games, hanging at the beach and playing baseball/frisbee.
What was your favorite childhood gym/playground game? Dodgeball? Wallball? Four Squares? Other?
-
Four Square, definitely. Especially the time the big red rubber ball hit me in the face at full speed and knocked me down.
What is the capital of Djibouti?
-
Djibouti.
What is the best costume you've ever worn?
-
I was a lion for halloween when I was in preschool... a male lion with a huge mane. It was awesome. Kinda sad that I haven't been in a better costume since I was four....
Why do some people not apologize for their dick-ness?
-
Because relative dickness is a matter of opinion and can be entirely subjective and always carries a level of bias. The person finding them to be a dick may be overreacting. The person finding them to be a dick may have misunderstood them. Or maybe they're just a dick, and if they're a dick, why the fuck should they care what others think? They're a dick.
Why can't anyone make a classic video game theme like the good old days? Anyone else remember the classic games like Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Ninja Gaiden or Castlevania? Those had some fucking EPIC music. Now? It's all just recycled junk from Top 40 radio. Where did all the good video game music go?
-
My guess would be that they're lazy. These days, we're all "nurr, must have new games NOW, nuuuuur," instead of "Oh, you're not done yet? Okay, I'll just play an old game until it's ready, mkay thanks!" In related news, I'm actually currently listening to Smashing...Live! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smashing...Live!)
Have you ever seen a real orchestra perform?
-
Yes, I've been to the symphony here several times. I got to watch Joshua Bell practice with the symphony once, too. A-ma-zing. (He's a violinist, if you don't know who he is.)
What is the klutziest thing you have ever done in public? (Falling, knocking something over, etc.)
-
No such thing as *the* klutziest thing I've done in public. I fall and do stupid things too often. The most embarrassing klutzy thing, though- that's easy. I was walking across the quad at my high school as a little bitty freshman at a break, carrying all of my books and notebooks and such in my arms when I suddenly trip... over nothing. Everything goes flying; at least one of my binders pops open and throws paper all over the place. To add insult to injury, I somehow managed to sprain my ankle. Naturally, no students come over to help. There probably was laughing, I don't really remember- it was like in a movie where it's slow-motion and all silent and such. But then, the sweet, squat little Spanish teacher came running over to me, and starting cooing in spanish: "pobre hija" or something like that... and then she started directing the students milling about to pick my things up for me when she noticed that I couldn't stand up, and got a big guy to carry me to the office.
Mildly mortifying... but when I look back on it, it's HILARIOUS.
On the subject of embarrassing moments: what was your most embarrassing moment in school?
-
I just got done telling someone this story via aim, so I'll just post the conversation here:
Emaline's most embarassing high school moment! or Let's not be homeless, ok?
andlemonade (5:23:31 PM): Once, in high school, I decided it would be a good idea to be homeless(don't ask), and my friends wouldn't let me even try.
CrazyMonkeyNate (5:28:48 PM): and why do you think that it would have been a good idea to become homeless
andlemonade (5:24:40 PM): During one class we were talking about it, and I said "Just you guys wait. I'll be homeless if I want to be, and then I'll just point at you guys and laugh, and say 'Haha, I'm homeless now, bitches!!'"
andlemonade (5:25:19 PM): And of course that was as soon as everyone in class had gotten quiet, and I was really loud, so everyone heard me.
andlemonade (5:25:45 PM): I don't remember why I thought it was a good idea, it was probably because I was so totally punk rock.
Yep. Everyone heard me declare that I wanted to be homeless, and was pretty much insane. Of course everyone laughed. My teacher even commented on it. I didn't live that one down for a bit.
I really love beer. German beers, and wheat beers are my favorites, but how I do love my cheap beers. PBR and High Life bring back all kinds of good nostalgic feelings. Do you like beer? If so, what kind?
-
Sadly, I hate beer in all of its forms. I think there are two main reasons: 1- I have never had a good beer. 2- When I was four or five, my dad gave me a sip of beer. The taste of it so disgusted me that to this day, even the smell of beer makes me gag.
Also, I hate the taste of alcohol in general. I literally wince after drinking, and if I can taste it too much, I get goosebumps. eeeeeh... thinking about the taste gives me goosebumps. I make a lot of mixed girlie drinks... and I've been known to cut drinks given to me with more juice/soda/whatever. I also get goosebumps from pulling apart cotton... or from someone pulling apart cotton right next to my ear.. or from thinking about it too much. It's hell when I open a new bottle of pills and no one's around to take out the cotton for me... eugh.
What is your favorite alcoholic beverage? If you don't drink, you get a different question: why don't you drink?
-
I tend to switch up a bit every few months (I've only been drinking about a year and a half now). My current drinks of choice are car bombs (Irish whiskey with Bailey's and Guinness), Jameson and coke and just regular old beer (Generally Bud Light or Killian's). I also love tequila shots on occasion.
I once had way too much Vodka and ended up making out with a fat girl, which a couple of my friends snapped on their camera phones. What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever done drunk?
-
Thankfully, my fiance has been with me every time I've been drunk (except for the one time I got drunk alone), so he doesn't let too much happen. But the one thing that makes me turn a little red when I remember it was my first time. We were drunk talking about how flexible we were and such, and one of the guys mentioned that an ex could put both legs behind her head. I said that I could do that too.. and they demanded proof. Naturally, I obliged. I think I may have given them an eyeful, too... and they were all guys. Thankfully, they were all drunk out of their mind, and don't even remember me doing that. I had to babysit one of them for most of the night...
What's the dumbest thing you or someone you know (and personally witnessed) has done drunk?
-
I went to Leeds for the weekend to see my friend's band practice, and stay over at his house. After practice, we got back to his house, and decided that a fire was in order. We built a fire in his back garden and all sat around it drinking home made wine and beer. After finishing off about three quaters of a bottle of wine to himself, the guy who I was visiting moved onto whiskey. After sitting outside for a bit, playing with the fire (I was pretty amazed that I could put my foot in the flame and not feel a thing) we went back inside to sit around in the living room. My friend was still drinking at this point, but everyone else had stopped. His dad was sitting in the middle of the room, rolling a spliff. When my friend suddenly burst out saying "Oh, oh, oh, dad. A while ago I stole some of your weed and sold it to my friends." Now, I thought this was a pretty dumb thing to admit to, but his dad's reaction was even better, he just continued staring at the floor, rolling the spliff, and just said "Yeah... I thought you might have done that."
Most people I know used to listen to music that they now think is awful, and now they listen to a totally different type of music. What was the first record you bought or listened to that introduced you to the type of music you listen to know? What sort of effect do you think it has had on the way you live your life, and your life in general?
-
I suppose it's a mad scramble between Interpol's "Antics" and Franz Ferdinand's "You Could Have it So Much Better." Neither album was that good (I sold the Interpol album) but I suppose that's what introduced to indie-eqsue music. They were probably the start of me broadening my music taste. I don't listen to 'em today though.
What time of your life would you say your best?
-
You mean what time of my life would I say was my best? In that case I would say now. I'm way more ballsier. I'm doing more things I want to. I'm attempting to earn money for my art. I'm going on more dates. I'm meeting more people. I'm just generally having more fun. There's a lot of things I could complain about, but I mean, whatevs. Life is for living.
I also think it's because I'm a total freaking "hippie" now, and hang out with a bunch of other "hippies."
What do you like about your life? What don't you like?
-
I like my freedom. I could do without the stress that accompanies said freedom, but you know what? It's more than a fair trade.
How do you want to die?
-
oddly enough my friends have had this discussion. some of them, the more normal and sane ones, want to die in a peaceful way with as little pain as possible, while the rest want to die in the most unbelieveable way possible, preferrably in front of some chidlren so as to scar them for life.
what do you usually do when you hear about a tornado warning that may be near you but is not?
-
I usually ignore it unless the weather starts to get worse all of the sudden. At that point I make my way down to the basement. (Luckily I live in North Dakota, so this doesn't happen too often.)
What's your all-time favorite movie quote?
-
"Its not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me." Batman, from Batman Begins. This is my favorite movie quote of all time since it is corny but expresses a concept which few have managed to successfully over time.
What do you believe and why?
-
I believe in a thing called loooooveeeee....
Kidding. I believe that extreme situations bring out the worst and best in people. Everything else is up for grabs.
Money or love?
-
oh, definitely money.
who was your most psycho ex? share your painful story with us so that we may be entertained.
-
Oh God... psycho ex... this one girl I dated would be absolutely crazy physically behind closed doors, but hated to display affection publicly. We broke up violently over that. I had a particularly good day, saw her in a mall, gave her a hug from behind, and she proceeded to elbow me in the ribs, turn around, and slap me so hard I fell down. I remember sitting there for a few moments, suppressing this anger, getting up slowly, turning to her, and telling her not to call me again.
Dunno where she is now because she took my advice.
To shift gears in a particularly more sadistic light, what's your favorite form of torture? Use details.
-
This is why I hate the "detailed answers" requirement. I spend like fifteen minutes writing up a response, and someone beats me to it. Fuck it, though. I win the psycho exes game, so I'm posting it anyways.
I have worked my way quite effectively through the briar patch of psychos. I've heard the phrase "Just because I said no, doesn't mean I didn't want you," and I've been dumped for getting "too serious" by a girl who proposed marriage to me. I even dated a girl for a year who was literally diagnosed as a borderline sociopath. They all pale, though, to this girl I dated just before I turned twenty.
We only dated for about a month. Within a couple weeks, she was telling me she loved me. She then started pressuring me with the whole "if you love me, you'll sleep with me" thing (Which I didn't want to do initially, as she was a virgin and I wasn't sure I'd be with her long). Eventually, I did sleep with her and then she got even worse. Calling me like every hour, popping up at my job randomly and getting paranoid about all my friends (At the time, most of my friends were girls). Eventually, I dumped her. What followed was a month of her STILL calling me every hour, only now she was threatening suicide and screaming shit like "how could you do this to me?!" (Don't forget, we only dated a single...fucking...month). After about a month, she ended up having herself committed and then a month later she showed up with her "girlfriend" at my new job. She asked me what I thought of her new girlfriend in a rather "see, I don't need you. I don't need you at all" desperate tone, I kinda responded with "Well, she's nice if you like plain, chubby chicks, I suppose."
Thankfully, I haven't seen her since then.
In answer to the actual followup question: the mercury torture. Basically, the way it works is you take a shaft of mercury in a VERY thin coating of glass (I.E., thinner than a thermometer) and jam it up a dude's urethra. From there, you bring in something that will arouse him. Shortly, the mercury will expand from the heat and burst inside his urethra. It makes me cringe thinking about it.
If you could only watch one TV show for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?
-
Doctor Who.
There's basically enough episodes to last me a lifetime, plus I would eat handfuls of cold gravel if David Tennant asked me to. I'm really quite upset that I work nights at my new job because it means I miss the new episodes, as well as Torchwood. I wanted to cry the first time I missed it, but I figured getting paid was really more important.
What is the most embarrassing thing you have ever worn?
-
I feel like there should be a timeframe on that question. Like, my mom used to dress me in pastel Benneton sweatsuits in elementary school, but such attire was not nearly as embarrassing then as it would be now. Or perhaps the question should specify what is the most embarrassed you have ever felt in an outfit, thus disallowing anything where you're embarrassed looking back on old photos or something like that.
Y'know what, it doesn't actually matter. I have a situation where I was terribly embarrassed at the time, and it is embarrassing to look back on it. When I first moved to this country, before school started there was a get-together for new day students (I went to a boarding school, but I lived in the area.) I was under the impression it was a pool party, so I wore my swimsuit (and mind you, the only swimsuit I had was rather garish.) As it happened, it was not a pool party, so there I was, this awkward nerdy highschooler, stuck in a gathering of my new classmates at a new school in a new country, and I'm dressed like a goddamn beach tourist. Oh yeah, and I was the only guy present; it just happened that every other student who showed up, including the upperclassmen running the orientation session, were girls.
What is the worst movie you have ever seen?
-
Sounds hot.
Anyways, far and away, worst movie I have ever seen was the Blair Witch Project. It was awful and a letdown in any way. I actually fell asleep the first time I tried to watch it. The ending was also the biggest load of shit ever conceived.
What is the best movie you have ever seen?
-
The best movie I've ever watched? I don't know, I remember being really impressed by Fight Club and Memento. Both are, at the very least, excellent films. But I can't write much about them, while technically they were very good, very well made, etc. they didn't really affect me in any way, or leave me wanting to watch them again. So I'll talk about my favourite movie ever. Hopefully that'll turn out to be more interesting, anyway.
Almost Famous is far and away my favourite film. I've seen it so many times I've lost count. And that isn't an exaggeration. Every half term I have, I watch it at least once. I must have watched it at least half a dozen times last summer, and the summer before. My exams finished late June, and since then, I have watched the film three times, on three consecutive days. Instead of getting boring, as you'd excpect, it actually gets better every time I watch it. Now I know the plot inside out, and know word-for-word most of what is said, I'm noticing loads of incidental details and throw-away comments, and they just make the movie even better than before.
The reason I love it, though? Obviously, one of the big draws is the music. (the music budget was $3.5m most films have a music budget of less than $1.5m*) There isn't a bad song in the entire film, and they are all perfectly suited to locating the film within the time period, and more importantly, they really make you feel what the characters are feeling, which is something I honestly can't say for almost all of the other films I have ever seen.
Obviously the plot is also something that I love, but I won't go into spoilers so I don't ruin it for those of you who haven't seen it. I'd summarise it as the kind of coming-of-age story that everybody would love to go through.
Also: Kate Hudson topless!
Alrighty... a question. Do you watch comic > film adaptations? What is your opinion on them? Do they all suck? Are they all great? Is it anything more than directors trying to get a sure-fire hit?
*According to wikipedia.
-
it really depends on which movie you're talking about. i loved the x-men films (except the last one), loved the spiderman films (still haven't seen the last one) i hated the hulk, hated fantastic four, hated hellboy, and hated sin city at first, but then i loved it.
there are so many variables... i'm much more likely to forgive shortcommings if it's a franchise i love (more LIKELY, but not NECESSARILY). it depends on director, actors, script... specialFX are almost always good, so it's rarely the look of the film.
so, i guess what i'm getting at is, they're either really good, or total crap. i don't think it's directors trying to get a sure-fire hit, i think it's the big companies that are trying to make a shit load of money whether the movie is good or not. some directors love the franchise they're directing and try their best to do it justice. but, then you keep making sequals that bleed the franchise dry...
ok, my question: what is the worst gift you ever recieved that you had to pretend to like?
-
A large variety of clothes... I hate receiving clothes as gifts, because it is usually stuff I would not be caught dead in. The most ghastly, I think was a powder blue sweater, which on it's own would be fine, but given my love of penguins, my grandmother took it upon herself to sew a couple dozen of them sporatically all over the sweater. My Sister was given one similar to it, excpet with kittens... the difference between my sister and I: she actually wears it. Mine is still shoved in a drawer at home somewhere...
Where are you going to be at 12:01 tonight?
-
At 12:01, I will be leaving my local 24-hour grocery store, with my new HP7 book in tow. Of course, I already have a copy of the book on my computer (whooo bit torrents and silly book sellers that shipped early!)... Ron dies on page 481, American version.
I was totally kidding, by the way. Hermione dies on that page. RON just gets terribly injured on page 266, and he ends up dying later, on page 621...
Who do YOU want to die in HP7? Remember, JKR said two "main characters" die.
-
I think they should all die on the last page. A nuclear bomb should hit Hogworts, and unicorns shall rule the rubble.
Could you possibly tell that I don't give one shit about Harry Potter? How many shits do you give about Harry Potter?
-
I give a good few shits.
Who's a bigger wuss:
Someone who reads and enjoys kids books?
Or someone who can't hold their booze?
-
I hope that's a joke, Cai. (Dan mentioned banning people if they post those spoilers.)
Someone who can't hold their booze. I read children's books, I can hold my liquor, and I am no wuss.
What are you doing right now other than looking at a computer screen and typing an answer to my question?
-
edit: somebody else got to the question first
-
What are you doing right now other than looking at a computer screen and typing an answer to my question?
Eating a sammich and watching Moving Up.
How much TV do you watch on the average day?
-
Uh, yeah. I was totally bullshitting. I know that I would probably be tempted to murder anyone who posted spoilers for HP7 today (*especially* without warning). Of course, after tomorrow, I say everything's fair game. If you can't read a 700-page children's book in a day, it sucks to be you. Of course, I'll probably be dead in bed all weekend, recuperating...
I don't watch much TV. Half hour or so? Maybe one hour? It's usually on in the background, though.
What's the most gag-inducng thing you have ever eaten (either because you had to or because you didn't want to offend your best friend's mom or something)?
-
I've been vegetarian since birth thanks to hippie parents, and as such I do not have the stomach enzymes to digest meat. Two weeks ago while at camp, the kitchen staff accidentally gave me meat sauce on pasta...
I only ate about two fork-fuls then promptly spent the next 5 hours vomiting and feeling like utter hell.
Have you ever had to perform the Heimlich maneuver on anyone?
-
Yes. I took some classes for it awhile back, figuring I'd never use it, but it has actually come in handy a few times.
I'm baking brownies, as we speak. How do you prefer your brownies? "Cake like" or gooey?
-
Gooey, definitely. I put in chocolate chips to make it more better. I've never been a big fan of frosting on brownies, though, so they have to be gooey.
I like that word. Gooey.
What word or phrase have you used lately that someone TOTALLY misunderstood? (example: I said "trying to get that comforter into that grocery bag is a pointless exercise in futility," a few days back and a lady started talking about how her doctor says she needs to exercise more).
-
Today is Stone Gossard of Pearl Jam's birthday. My mom told me this, and I said something, and she completely misunderstood what I said, saying "But it's his birthday..." I wasn't arguing that.
So, the other night, after(actually during, but towards the end) I texted a friend asking if they were still up(it was around 4 or 5am). They never wrote back, not a big deal. Last night, around 12-1am, I called them. No answer. I didn't really have anything in perticular that I needed to tell them, so I didn't leave a voicemail. However, I'm thinking of planning a movie night this Sunday, or Saturday depending on people's schedule. I'd like to invite this person along, but I would hate to call them again. This is someone who I've made out with, and such, but really don't want to be in a relationship with, despite wanting to hang out with him a lot. He agrees on the not going out thing. I don't want to seem to "girlfriend-y". Should I call tonight, or just wait until tomorrow, or so?
-
Wait until tomorrow. Best not to seem too forward, I suppose.
What place would you like to visit, if you could? (this does include imaginary places, if you so choose)
-
the weirdest dame I've ever played
awesome typo
holy shit I didn't even notice that.
and, to answer the question: Italy. I would give my left nut to be able to go to Italy, don't even care which part.
However, thanks to the magic of my school system, I get to go next summer! MaiAda, if it turns out we get any free time in Rome, I'll try to let you know and we can get un gelato or something.
What one song instills the most emotion into you? Doesn't matter what emotion it is, just that you feel the most from listening to it.

Rogue Wave - California
Partially because of attached memories and partly because it's just great melancholy guitar and Zach's voice is amazing.
What was the last good book you read?
-
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I loooved it.
What's the last good movie you've watched?
-
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I thoroughly enjoyed it. ...Actually, I can't remember if I saw that or Ratatouille last... So one of those.
What was the last good meal you had?
-
Last weekend. I went home and my mom made fish and some great potatoes. Otherwise I basically live off of Ramen.
What's your dream car?
-
One that's shaped like a pink unicorn and has wings and has a cappuccino machine! Basically I want to ride a pink unicorn with wings and a cappuccino machine.
What did you want to be when you were growing up?
-
A couple of things really. A Psychologist, then a Jet Pilot, then a voice actor, then a writer, then a screenwriter and now I'm studying to be a psychologist so I'm pretty much doin what I wanted to. The reason I changed my mind so many times was because all my teachers, well, most of my teachers said I wasn't smart enough to do Psychology.
However the correct answer to the 'What do you want to be when you grow up?" question is a slightly confused paused follwed by "I already am..."
Staying on topic, did anyone in a place of authority (eg. teacher, parent, 40 year old track coach...) tell you you're not smart enough to do what you wanted to do? If so, did you prove them wrong?
-
Yes. My middle school english teacher said I wasn't smart enough to be in the HS honors class. So 9th grade I was forced into the average english class, but the year after I was in honors and the two years after that I was in Advanced Placement and got college credit. I don't like it when people say things like that to me.
When you daydream, what's it about?
-
When you daydream, what's it about?
The myriad ways that I'm going to improve my life, starting the next day.
Who has been the most influential person in your life?
-
I would probably have to say my Dad. Even though he is not usually around, thanks to the terms of the divorce, I have learned so much from him, like ethics and morals and how to be a good person.
If you were a super hero what kind of powers would you have?
-
The ability to change people's reality. I would use it only for my own amusement.
What is the lamest superpower ever? Be creative.
-
Being invulnerable without having anything else, and you still feel all the pain. You get to be the 'decoy' for everything.

How much wood could a woodchuck cut if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
-
Probably not much, woodchucks are fat little shits! Even if their front limbs were long enough to chuck wood anywhere, they'd probably just say fuckit and waddle off to munch plants and wander into traffic.
What is your opinion concerning mohawks? When you see someone sporting one, do you write them off as a little trendwhore kid, or does it pique your interest? Do they offend you in any way?
-
I'm of the trendwhore argument. The mohawk's been done to death. It used to have rebellion and anti-establishment all over it, but now it's become such a mainstream "punk" staple that it's lost all meaning and street cred and just makes the wearer look like an oddball moron who doesn't realize they missed a spot shaving their head.
Though, by contrast, it's nowhere near as bad as the "devil lock." Nothing screams "I write utter shit poetry and cut myself to Linkin Park" than a devil lock.
What did you think of the new Harry Potter book? Try and elaborate a bit.
If you didn't read it, you can have an alternate question:
How does it feel to be excluded from that prior question? Are you hurt? Angry? Jealous?

Didn't read it. All of the above.
Did anybody notice that I completely fucked that woodchuck tongue-twister up?
-
Yes, but it didn't bother me.
How many terabytes of hard drive space do you have?
-
What the fuck is a terabyte? (Is it like 100 megs or something?)
Should that count as both the answer and question?
-
It's 1024 gigabytes. Which is a lot.
Would you/have you ever paid for sexual favors and if so, how much?
-
I haven't, nor would I ever. Why pay for something when people are so willing to give it for free? You see, God gave me these great boobs that seem to hypnotize so many two-legged creatures with penises.
Given the choice between daily masturbation and no intercourse or bi-monthly intercourse and no masturbation, which would you choose?
-
A terabyte is 1000 gigabytes. I have a total of 2.37 terabytes of hard drive space.
-
That wasn't the question.
-
You guys suck at games.
Previous Question: Would you/have you ever paid for sexual favors and if so, how much?
Answer: I haven't, nor would I ever. Why pay for something when people are so willing to give it for free? You see, God gave me these great boobs that seem to hypnotize so many two-legged creatures with penises.
NEW QUESTION (answer this one): Given the choice between daily masturbation and no intercourse or bi-monthly intercourse and no masturbation, which would you choose?
-
Wait, aren't you basically asking us if we'd get married.
Zing.
The latter I think, I mean, as long as it's guaranteed. Masturbation gets very.....repetitive.
Question: Will orgasming in public (http://www.questionablecontent.net/comics/931.png) ever be considered polite?
-
You're allowed to masturbate when you're married!
Probably not, though high school aged children will probably continue to hump each other at dances, and likely orgasm in the process.
What do you consider "dancing"? Is it just moving in time to the beat, or something more...
-
Dancing is merely a form of mild seizure induced by strobe lights and malice.
Would you allow people who frequent the Internet to have children without passing a federal exam?
-
I wouldn't allow ANYONE to have children without passing a federal exam.
Was the internet truly made for porn? Give EXPLANATIONS and REASONS please, as this counts for 30 points in the exam.
-
Yes for two reasons. A, Dr Cox said so, you silly fool. B, because the entire reason for this exam is to test the kind of people who watch free porn, and if you admit there is no need for that then it's as good as saying "The government don't matter" which would get me assassinated by a secret Over-Border Secret Commie Assassinatorial Squad.
Do you actually bother to read my posts any more? If so, why the hell do you bother?
-
"Any more"? There's only seven so far. How much time could I possibly waste on you?
Are you picky about the water you drink? Do you agree that different waters have different tastes/textures?
-
Mountain water? My shiny, well coifed ass! Water is water. Anything else is just different lengths of the corporations peeing in it. The only other texture you get is sand, in which case, you're supposed to bottle the water before you drink it from the beach.
(PS, it's not so much wasting time on me as getting going while the going's good.)
On a scale of 1 to 10, does the :mrgreen: smiley have any practical use at all? I mean, besides demonstrating the approximate Hair-to-sane ratio?
-
Because I feel like nodding to a previous question about the internet being for pron: It is so because muppets told me so (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5430343841227974645). (That was the only full version of the song I could be bothered to find, so excuse the fact that it's not performed by muppets).
Well, as using emoticons too often is frowned upon on many interweb forums (particularly on this one, I've noticed), my guess would be that it's there for ironic purposes. Also, it's funny. I grin a little every time I see it. However, think about it: what would you write in the place of that one? *afro guy* That's just weird. Oh, scale of one to ten- forty two.
How much time do you spend on the internet every day (on average), and how is it divided up?
-
Usually an hour or so all told, unless I have the day off. Then I go on YouTube for a while. I check my Facebook and Project Rockstar, visit MuggleNet and sometimes my MySpace, and then head over here for good times.
What's your favorite sport to watch in person?
-
Hockey, hands down. Preferably right at the glass. After that, I love baseball games, but mostly for the atmosphere. I sometimes bring a book. I hate watching soccer in person because I often feel a need to run onto the field (god I miss that game), but I can usually watch on TV well enough... I just yell a lot, and american football is boring as all get-out to watch. Playing is a different story. I'm sure I would enjoy watching lacrosse, but I haven't had the chance to catch a game yet. I've watched men practice rugby, and that looks like a sport you shouldn't play unless you're willing to die... I'd love to watch a match sometime.
Sorry I rambled a bit. I like sports.
What, in your opinion, is the best thing to put Nutella on? If you've never had Nutella.... get some. Like, now.
-
Probably really thin pancakes also known as crepes and/or polochinta (I can't spell in Hungarian). Seriously, it's like there's a party in your mouth and only hot naked people are invited. Also Tegan and Sara are playing live at that party. You'll get extra flavour points if said crepes are hot.
Considering I just got fired from my job, should I be mad at my brother for going to get a mobile phone from there tomorrow? Cos I'm really not. It seems petty to me...
-
Don't be mad....unless they say something mean about you while he's there....
If you could kill one person without ever being caught, who would it be? (this is open to people you know personally, but you have to tell us why...)
-
i don't think i could ever kill anybody. unless they, like, killed my mom or something.

Should I abandon my current degree for a different one, or just say screw it and go to vocational school?
(Answer either one. I really don't give a shit)
-
Yes, you should abandon your degree RIGHT AWAY and get an internet degree in sea serpentry. The world will CRUMBLE under the power of your internet degree!
Should I answer questions seriously from now on?
-
Eh, your responses are amusing... if not always lucid. So, I reckon it's up to you.
Does anyone else here watch Star Trek? ...Anyone?
-
Nope. You are alone in your world of Klingons and bad special effects.
Would you actually pay money for those little address labels you stick on the left corner of envelopes, or is it the free ones organizations send you/none at all?
-
I just write it in. Takes about ten seconds, and I really don't send that much mail. I pay my bills over the interwebs.
Have you ever built your own computer?
-
FYI: I watch and enjoy Star Trek.
No, I haven't, but apparently my fiance is building me one *wink wink*
Have you ever listed "can troubleshoot computers" as one of the things you like about a significant other?
-
I certainly hope my fiancee considers that a plus, because otherwise all I got is that I can draw.
-
Have you ever listed "can troubleshoot computers" as one of the things you like about a significant other?
Nope, I'm pretty good at that myself, therefore I have no need of someone else to do it for me.
In a movie about your life, who would play you?
-
Me, I expect. I can't think of anyone else and it'd be fun to play myself.
Has anyone ever told you you bear a striking resemblance to a celebrity?
-
I get Jason Lee constantly. That was fun for me until he started doing utter shit like Chipmunks and Underdog. Thanks, douche, for ruining my image.
What's your favorite non-alcoholic drink (And if you're boring enough to say water, please scald your foot)?
-
Currently I've rediscovered the joys of Vanilla Coke -- once thought extinct, it is now actually known that I just forgot about it. Before that I went through a pretty serious Manzanita Sol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manzanita_Sol) phase -- if it's available in your area you should definitely give it a try. It's the only product I would risk stepping inside a WalMart for, as no one else around here has it.
What's your favorite classic book/story?
-
The Velveteen Rabbit. I'm not sure if it's actually considered a classic, but it's always been my favorite, although I have never owned a copy.
Along the same lines... what's your favorite "children's" story/fairytale?
-
I believe it was a called "The Juniper Tree" or something like that. The evil stepmother beheads her stepson, serves the corpse to his father, and then a bird drops a millstone on his head. I left out quite a few details, but even with those in, it still doesn't make much sense. It's pretty awesome.
What TV shows do you watch religiously (or if TV is not applicable, what book series do you read religiously?)
-
Books: they've all finished.
Shows: Lost, because my damned friend was watching it so I did, and now I have to find out what the heck happens.
what's your favorite food?
-
Spaghetti. I like it with cheese, with tomato sauce, with pesto, with butter, with garlic, with mushrooms, in a house, with a mouse...
Do you have a good luck item, like a lucky penny or a lucky sweater or a lucky pencil? If so, how did it become lucky, and what luck has befallen you from its use?
-
I have quite a few lucky things. My favourite is a small toy puppy that my brother gave me, he never became lucky, he just sort of, was. The best example of his powers was when I did my gold swimming test and passed easily despite being in the grip of flu. (I also have a six leafed clover which prevented me failing maths)
What, for you, makes a girl/boyfriend a keeper?
-
Well, since Le Tigre wrote the song, I guess them??? Or maybe it was someone else? This is a very mysterious matter, it is!
Anything you're excited about or looking forward to right now?
-
I'm looking forward to the Friday after next, so this guy who's starting to creep me out will leave me alone, as I'll never see him again. (I'm in a class and it ends in a week and a half.) He's ruining my enjoyment of a history of rock and roll class.
What's one really odd subject that you would like to know all about?

-
No but your grammar and spelling have just made me impotent.
What's the next album you need to buy, and why?
-
Lewis Black's next comedy CD, because he's hilarious.
What's the most terrifying experience you can remember having? Bonus points for details.
-
I was driving up Route 3 in New Hampshire three Novembers ago. I was only doing fifty, but it was raining pretty bad and traveling in the left lane. I started to lose control and started fishtailing. I was in someone else's car as mine was incapacitated, so I was not in perfect control as usual. I couldn't bring myself out of it and ended up flying off to the left and coasting across the extremely wet and slick grass in between the northbound and southbound expressways in a complete spin. I got 3/4 of the way across the grass before I started to slow down and finally managed to stop the car just shy of the guard rail on the southbound side through extreme use of the e-brake. The slowdown was very sudden, and for a moment it looked like I was going to fly right through the guard rail into oncoming traffic. I was in a small car with no airbags, so this probably would've been an automatic death sentence for me. I almost worked myself into an asthma attack I was so panicked. I got lucky, turned out I had hit a small pipe halfway across which is what slowed me up. It fucked one of the wheels but good, but I was safe, at least.
After exiting the vehicle to freak out for a minute, I saw a state trooper parked across the northbound end with his radar gun. Prick didn't even fucking move the entire time I composed myself and got back in to get off the highway and go back home and clutch the floor for dear life. What's the most i nfuriated you've ever found yourself with a law enforcement person?
-
When my brother came home one day, he told a story about a cop that had happened that day. My brother was seventeen at the time, and he DID look a bit like a punk (bandanna tied around his head all the time, aviator sunglasses, died black hair (spiked), and very very muscular), but still.... here's what Mr. cop man did. Pulled him over for no reason. He wasn't speeding (the limit was 55 there, and he drove a crap car. I doubt it could go above 60) or doing anything wrong as far as he knew. The cop told him that he didn't have his seatbelt on (the seatbelt law was new at the time... but he alwaus wears his belt anyway). The officer immediately made my brother get out of the car so he could search it. He handcuffed my bro and sat him on the sidewalk. By the way, he was on his way home from school at the time. The cop found nothing (of course), and told him to go. My brother asked for his badge number.... and he said "no" and put his hand over his badge, went back to his car and drove off.
I was pretty fucking angry. I don't like it when people mess with my big brother. My dad was pretty pissed too, and my mom immediately got on the phone with the PD to try and figure out who that asshole was. In general, I like cops; they've always been great to me. I just don't like the ones that hide behind things with their little radar... or the ones that fuck with my brother.
Are you very protective of your family members (or friends that you basically consider family)? Any one in particular? Do you have any fun stories to illustrate your protectiveness?
-
I'm very protective of my brothers. The year before last, my brother was having trouble with another kid in his year who kept picking on him. I heard that this kid had been picking a fight one lunchtime at school and me and some of my friends went to find out what was going on, when I saw this kid he laughed at me so I grabbed him by his blazer and lifted him off the floor. The kid was a little shit and the look of terror on his face was utterly brilliant.
when you were younger, did you have any imaginary friends? what were they like?
-
My imaginary friends were my hands (My feet were their pet dogs), a tree that was an elephant (pink and black and white), and I had a cat and a dog that lived on my hands also. They were fun, and I miss having imaginary friends at times. I was so sad when we moved away from that tree/elephant.
Edit! The hand-people and their feet-dogs were my brother's imaginary friends, actually. I got confused because it was so long ago. The dogs were Migdalig and Ralph!
What game do you play on your computer that you always seem to lose, yet play it anyway?
-
Freecell. I actually win Freecell a lot of the win (therefore I am a liar) but I still have no fucking idea why I play it so much.
Is there a shitty computer game (e.g. Freecell, Solitare, Minesweeper etc) that you play more than one really ought to?

So lately, I've really been digging both So Long, Lonesome by Explosions in The Sky, and Nothing Feels Good By The Promise Ring. What song(s) have you been into lately?
-
Lately I've been listening to the new Ignite album and so far my favourite tracks are Poverty For All, Fear is Our Tradition and their cover of Sunday Bloody Sunday. I've also been listening to Back in Your Head by Tegan & Sara over and over again because I absolutely love this song and I need to buy their new album.
What are you like with your money? For instance I am having a lot of trouble resisting buying the above album and the new Harry Potter book as I have no money to spare on things I like for the next few weeks. Do you often have this same problem?
-
Oh god, I have a serious shopping addiction. I'm horrible when it comes to shoes especially, so it probably wasn't the best idea to get a job in a shoe store. And I love to go grocery shopping, but luckily I don't feel guilty as it's something that you have to do.
What's your favorite thing that you've ever purchased?

What's your view on religion as a whole?
-
I was raised with an extreme distrust of religion--both my parents were raised Catholic and later rejected it in favor of Unitarian Universalist and Quaker churches, neither of which they attended with any frequency or particular devotion. I have come to believe that faith can be an enriching, important, even integral aspect of life for some people, and I respect that. I, however, cannot seem to really believe anything.
That said, I'm currently on my first trip to Europe; I went to mass at Notre Dame this evening, and it was gorgeous.
What was the best performance (concert, show, play?) you've ever seen?

What do you have on your favourite set of curtains?

Nothing... my favourite window-treatment is the one in my room, a minimalist row of Mardi Gras beads and other random hanging things dangling from the bare curtain rod. (I have Venetian blinds too. Don't worry.)
Random question: Have you ever helped a dying animal you found in the street / alley / yard / park, and if so, how? (Did it die, survive, or maul you and give you rabies, or all of the above?)

Worst day ever.

I watched Hostel the other day with high expectations - it being referred to as the most gory film of all time - and was very disappointed. It was possibly the most ridiculous film of all time..

Awful!
I recently read Everett's autobiography and it was one of the most amazing books I'd read in years. My question is thus:
what is the most amazing book you've ever read?
-
All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque. It really showed Germans as human, rather than the faceless, emotionless enemy various pieces of media and literature of the time had showed them. It was very touching, and moved me.

question: does anyone know where i can buy tim tams in the US?
-
I take my games seriously. *coughs*
Anyway, I have seen them at my local little store that has food and candies and such from Canada, Australia, India, and the UK (they have Irn Bru, Bisto,and Mackintosh, for example). Those stores rarely have a website, so they're impossible to find unless you go into one or talk to folks in your area (I found mine because my Scottish friend's dad had to make a weekly run there to get his fixes... our's doesn't stock chocolate in the summer months (if there's any, it's more expensive), though, because foreign chocolate doesn't have wax in it, so it melts more easily. Other than that, I'd try ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/TIM-TAMS-Tim-Tam-CHOCOLATE-BISCUITS-Australian-Food_W0QQitemZ230122062198QQihZ013QQcategoryZ43401QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem)...

Mackintosh?

Wax?? And the Europeans claim that British chocolate isn't real chocolate!! American chocolate would probably kill them!
-
There was a while there were Nestle was trying to change the definition chocolate here in the US so that it didn't actually have to contain cocoa.
Consumer outrage lead to the government shooting that idea down.
-
Yeah, Mackintosh (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackintosh's_Toffee). Commercials encourage you to "give your Mack a smack!" The toffee is inside plastic wrap inside little cardboard boxes about the size of a deck of cards, and about half an inch thick. You slam them flat on a hard surface, and it breaks it up into pieces. It's fun.
Yeah... wax is pretty common. They use other weird things too, though, and they hide the names well. Have you ever seen a hershey's chocolate bar that has melted and re-hardened? It looks funky and tastes different. Now, have you ever seen other chocolate that's melted and re-hardened (like Dove chocolates)? It looks like chocolate... it's just in a different shape. Also, it tastes the same.
-

Neither. I sit at home and eat chocolate and/or ice cream.... and plain double doubles from In-N-Out... I also read HP, play video games, and sleep a lot. If someone invites me out, I'll usually say no. If they insist, I'll go, and it will appear that everything is fine.

I have tried two types of Hershey's chocolate over the years, one brought back from America by my Dad (just a plain chocolate bar) and one I bought in a shop over here recently (white chocolate with oreo style cookie pieces) and I found both to be disgusting to the point of inedibilty. Utterly the worst chocolate I've ever tasted, probably one of the worst things I've ever tasted full stop.
I'm not hating on America though, I do like Oreos.
What's the most extravagent, unnecessary thing you've ever bought?
I dunno, I'm pretty careful with money. I bought some shoes, though I didn't really need new shoes and they were on sale... They were less than £20 and they are hawt though.
Would you ever eat a guinea pig?
-
I agree. Hershey's chocolate sucks. Hard.
Sure, I'd eat a guinea pig. Those things are little bastards. But there probably isn't much meat on one.... can't imagine it'd be very substantial. I might have to eat two... or even THREE.

Yes. The question was if you go to the doctor when you should. Answer: "You never should go to the doctor. He is an evil bastard who is only trying to steal your kidneys and/or testicles for governmental death ray use."
We all know real doctors go for the liver.
How many times have you moved in your life, and where have you gone to/from?
-
5 times, but just different suburbs of the same city.
What's the most annoying song that you can think of off the top of your head?
-
Gwen Stefani - "The Sweet Escape"
God damn them all for playing at both of my jobs every hour.
What's the best class you've ever taken, high school or college?
-
World religion, high school. Amazing class, amazing teacher. More or less the whole year was spent listening to presenters talk about their religions, and then asking them questions. Later, next class, we would Debate. It was AWESOME.
How do you feel about power struggles in relationships? Where do you like to be on the Power Scale of Science?
-
I am assuming by "relationship" you are referring to "romantic", in which case I think they tear the relationship apart. I have no idea the random synapses that composed the second question, so I will answer in the form of a trout:

As for the question, What is your favorite anything?
-
My favorite lotion ever is Burts Bees Milk+Honey. It smells insanely amazing without being overpowering, makes my skin lovely and soft for a long time, and doesn't make my hands feel sticky. Plus the company has good business practices and uses natural/recycled ingredients/packaging.
Do you get really distressed when you see a brand you like carried by Walmart, because they've sold out to the devil, or really excited because now you can get it for hella cheap and easily?
-
I'm utterly indifferent. I mean, the idea of a brand name "selling out" is entirely contradictory. A band may be in it for the music or an actor may be all about the art form, but a brand name is just a brand name. It's out there to move product. If it were about anything else, it would be nameless. A brand name is about the most corporate thing one can adopt.
What is your favorite cereal?
-
Maple and Brown Sugar Frosted Mini Wheats. I am enjoying a bowl right now.
If given the chance to save a group of people by sacrificing yourself, would you do it? How many people would it take?
-
I don't see me sacrificing myself to save people, so it'd probably matter more the quality of the people than the quantity. If it was my family or something, then yeah, absolutely. random passers-by? not likely unless it hit like four digits. I mean, this is my LIFE we're talking about here! I only have one of those!
What do you like best, shoes or boots? For our purposes, anything that just covers the foot is a "shoe" and anything that goes above the ankle is a "boot". I realize that this makes hi-tops a boot, but who wears those anymore?
-
I don't wear high tops anymore. I prefer shoes. I find boots constricting at times. I guess I don't care for things on my ankles. (Except my winter boots, because they are looser, comfy, and hella warm.)
What's the best way to get a person to leave you alone? (Preferably in a not mean way.)
-
Shut my office door and put my phone on "do not disturb". Works like a charm.
How do you eat a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup? (You, specifically. Like, what's your technique? I ask 'cause I just ate some.)
-
I freeze 'em, eat away the sides, and pop the remaining disc into my mouth.
Who was your first crush?
-
Man, that takes me back... I was eight, she was new in school... She had glasses and was smart and she scared me, so I knew it was love...
Still know her actually. Woah that was a long time ago.
Why is nu-rave?
-
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Why did this thread die?
-
because no one had any idea what supersheep was talking about.
which is your favorite muppet and why?
-
I don't really have a favorite muppet. I don't know. Maybe Kermit. Absolutely not Animal though. I hate that fucking song, and it is now stuck in my head. Thanks a lot.
I'm making meatloaf for dinner. I have three options for the sides: corn on the cob and mashed potatoes, green beans and mashed potatoes, or corn on the cob and green beans. To my the corn and potatoes is way too starchy, but both corn and mashed potatoes go very good with meatloaf. Whcih should I choose?
Also, what do you put on top of your meatloaf. We normally put ketchup on ours, but I've heard of some other toppings. A guy I dated put cream of mushroom soup on his, my best friend puts barbecue sauce on hers. What do you like on yours?
-
I always have corn and mashed potatoes with meatloaf, and that's the way I like it. I always take the corn off the cob, though, because I like having a bite of potatoes with corn and meatloaf all together. I like catsup with meatloaf, but I don't pour it on top, I just dip each bite in. I think it tastes better that way. It's good with worcestershire sauce poured on top (I stick it with a fork so that it sinks in better), and I also like it dipped in A-1 sauce.
Meatloaf is just good in general.
How do you like your toast? What kind of bread, what do you put on top of it, and such?
-
I like my toast frenched, with syrup and powdered sugar. Sooo much bad for you, so much good for my tastebuds.
What is the most embarrassing story your parents/guardians tell about your childhood years?
-
My mother likes to talk about how, when we were two and three years old, my older cousin and I would lift up our dresses and show off our Disney-themed underwear to each other. Not super-embarrassing, and maybe even cute, but certainly not on my things-you-tell-your-boss list. I had a boyfriend, though, whose mother showed me an album full of naked toddler pictures of him and his little brother, who sat there squirming and complaining. It was totally like something out of a sitcom.
If they made a sitcom of your childhood, who would play your mother?
-
Man, my childhood was kinda like the show Roseanne, only my mother doesn't have a voice that annoying.
Math or science? And you can't pansy out and say neither, you have to pick one. And give a dang good reason.
-
Math: Math has no 'short answer' questions where you need to "explain what the term hydro carbon means" or anything like that, I like numbers, numbers don't change.
What is your earliest memory?
-
When i was about 2, i was colicky, so i would wake up crying in the middle of the night a lot. my sister got tired of it, so she would take me and stick me in the downstairs coat closet so she couldn't hear me. this happened on many occasions, which is probably why i remember it so well. it was always either the closet, or under the kitchen table, which confused me more than anything.
what is the strangest thing your sibling has ever done to get you to shut up?
-
Nothing they could do as I was technically the oldest (I say technically as I'm the middle, but my older sister is severely mentally challenged, so I've always been the most mentally mature one). I was also, allegedly, a very quiet baby according to my parents.
I did, however, accidentally break or fracture my little brother's fingers once. I was trying to close a cabinet and hadn't noticed he had his fingers in there. I kept trying to close it and he, like myself, was a quiet baby so he didn't cry out when I smashed his fingers. I was about three at the time. That said, what's the most physically damaging thing you've ever done to someone, intentionally or unintentionally?
-
I accidentally kicked my dad in the nards before. Ooops.
Have you seen the Simpson's movie yet? If so, what did you think of it? If not, do you want to see it?
-
I saw it, I thought it was great, better than the last seasons wich were funny but not as funny as the first ones.
What is the crappiest movie you saw? Why?
-
The Good Shepherd. The most boring, pointless, emotionless, painful movie I've ever sat through.
Do you think your life would have been better with more or less siblings? Why?
-
On more siblings: hell no. I would be nice for once to be an older sibling, but honestly one siblings is enough hassle. That being said, I couldn't imagine life without my older sister. I can definitely say it wouldn't be an improvement.
How well can you fake a smile?

Historically, Isaac Newton. Currently, Richard Feinman and Lisa Randall.
I was once asked the question, "Name a famous obscure physicist." I ask you to do the same.

Reed Richards.
What's your all-time favorite video game?
-
i've played lots from duckhunt to final fantasy, sims to world of warcraft, and i have to say that my all time favorite is probably frogger. there's just something about crossing multiple lanes of trucks, alligators, other things to eat me that i just find amusing. *shrug*
then again, i may just be fascinated by frogs and toads. i do enjoy them very much, though they can get loud. i had a couple toads once, and they'd wake me up when they were fornicating. it was funny and disturbing at the same time. mostly funny though. what's something disturbing your pet has done that you couldn't stop laughing at?
-
I woke up one day and found my dog licking the wall. I started laughing and she looked at me as if I was insane.
i hate judgmental dogs.
What is the best thing you've ever done/said/heard?
-
My FIRST Robotics team winning the GVSU regional with two other teams. It was completely amazing and a definately unforgettable experience.
What is the most kiddish website that you have an account on and still use it on occassion or everyday?
-
Myspace, I guess? But I have an excuse! I'm a teenager, it's mandatory.
Skipping a dentist appointment to see my friends for the last time in 2 weeks. Good idea, yes or no? Why? Have you done something similar but more interesting?
-
I suppose that depends on you point of view. I hate dentists. Lousy teeth voodoo. I'd skip it but then I never really had any problems with my teeth. I skipped many appointments and I doubt if they'd be interesting pe se. Unless you count the time I skipped the appointment and went for a movie. Or the time I skipped for no reason at all except for the fact that I didn't feel like letting that old geezer stick his gloves in my mouth. Gluck.
Why is chinese food so light? And why is bush still the president of the 'States? It boggles my mind.
-
Chinese food is pretty heavy, particularly compared to Japanese and Korean food. I've heard stories of Japanese and Korean exchange students who would only eat fruit because eating native Chinese food would make them gain weight. And most American Chinese food is greasy and nasty.
And Bush is still president because people are stupid.
Why are people stupid?
-
Because they can't all have my inherent sensibilities and magnificent wit.
How long should I wait after getting a tattoo before going swimming, particularly in something potentially containing chlorine. I want to go to Six Flags soon and my tattoos are only about two weeks old.
-
my initial thought is that you should be fine after a couple weeks, after it's scabbed and gone through all of that healing. of course, i had to look it up for good measure. 2 weeks is the minimum, and depending on the level of chlorination in a pool, you could be talking a couple months. (http://tattoo.about.com/b/a/186401.htm)
how long does it take you to shower, get dressed, and any other grooming you may need to do in the morning? what is your routine?
-
About an hour or less. I drag myself out of bed, go to the bathroom, brush teeth, shower, get dressed, dry hair, and do hair or makeup if I feel like it (lately I haven't because it's too freaking hot). I'm not OCD or anything, but I feel weird when I have to do something out of order, unless it's switching teeth brushing and showering.
Do you always wear socks with your sneakers?
-
No, but after I wear my sneakers without my socks, my feet smells funny =p
What's your favorites TV Series? Why?
-
It's hard to call, but I'll go with Futurama. I can watch that show endlessly without really getting sick of it as a whole. Honorable mentions to NewRadio, Heroes and Rescue Me.
My kitchen floor was very grody looking a couple hours ago. When was the last time you mopped your kitchen?
-
Me personally? Long, long ago. I've been in the house I'm in at the moment since May and have yet to mop. Luckily other people do it. Before then I lived in dorm, so no kitchen to mop. Before then I lived at home, so I might have mopped at one point.
What's the worst job you've ever had?
-
I've only had one job, so, uh, that one. Cashier (pretty much) at Wendy's. Kinda sucked.
What question would you like me to ask?
-
Something more creative, but it's too late now, I guess.
1. Try a new question or 2. I don't care for peanuts other than when they are mashed into peanut butter, but I am quite fond of almonds. What are your favorite and least favorite types of nuts?
-
Walnuts are my favorite (and chocolate covered almonds.. because they're chocolate covered.) and my least favorite are... cashews. i dont like em.
colgate or crest?
-
whichever is on sale. i used to be all about the crest "expressions" and then i realized i was paying far too much to make my mouth taste like cinnamon. i do love it, though. what i DON'T like is peppermint. i don't know what it is, but it bother me a lot.
what are your feelings on mint, in general?
-
Fresh chopped mint is a good herb to add to a number of things. It's a nice surprising flavor. I used to buy mint leaves at a local farmers market to add to almost anything. It's a pretty good herb.
I love my job. It's awesome. I work at Subway. Everyone gets along great, and it's lots of fun. The only problem is my hands smell like sandwiches all the time. Even if I super wash them. Do you suppose all my clothes smell like sandwiches now? And have you ever had a job you really liked?
-
They very probably do, actually. Here's how you get the smell out though: Wash your hands with vinegar, and then with soap and water. The vinegar smell doesn't stick around, but it gets rid of the sandwich smell! Same goes for your clothing. Instead of fabric softener, add about 125ml (1/2 cup) into your wash. It actually does make your clothing soft, AND it gets rid of most odours! Also very good for tobacco smells, by the way.
I really liked my last job. Reception at a very small private college that did financial and insurance training. But, sadly, the office was moving and it was too far to be practical. Unemployment isn't very fun, though.
What's your favourite way to eat a banana?
-
When it's squishy and not at all appetizing, actually. I peel and cut it into chunks atop a cookie sheet and into the freezer it goes. Then they go into smoothies. Delicious. They're sweeter when you let them get all nasty like that. Just has to be hard enough to still be able to slice up a bit.
What weird things did you believe when you were little? (I'm talking stuff like thinking all cats are girls and all dogs are boys, how you thought electricity worked, that sort of thing). Details would be fun.
-
I thought the handicapped sign were supposed to represent someone on the toilet. It must be because I would mostly see handicapped signs on toilets.

What the fuck, Eric Gagne? What the fuck?
-
It's baseball (at least that's what Google says) so therefore why the fuck should anyone care? Baseball is stupid.
Don't you agree baseball is stupid?
-
I agree that Baseball is stupid, everyone knows Tennis is way better.
To stay in the Sport topic, What is your favorite sport?
-
To watch in person? Hockey. To watch on TV? RUGBY. To play? That sport that the rest of the world calls "football."
Since a lot of kids seem to want to be sports stars when they grow up... what did you want to be?
-
I wanted to be an Egyptologist... Now it's editing or teaching.
What would be your ideal date? Where would you go to and what would you do?
-
I wanted to be an Egyptologist... Now it's editing or teaching.
This is what I want to do now. I guess I'm like you as a child?
Anyways... probably an outdoor concert on a nice day. Bring a picnic lunch and have smashing good time.
How's the weather been lately?
-
Fairly hot (but not as hot as it normally would be this time of year) and humid. I'm just happy it finally stopped raining for a while.
Favorite season and why?
-
winter, because I am built for cold weather. I can actually wear a t-shirt and shorts and still feel warm in a blizzard
what was the last song that you listened to that made you feel happy?
-
Gotta Get Out by The Bicycles, because the song is so upbeat and cheerful, you only want to smile.
What is the longest time you stayed without sleeping?
-
I would say around 24-36 hours. International travel. That's not that long (well, it is for ME because I'm usually pretty good about getting SOME sleep) but I swear at that point of sleep-deprivation I was already seeing things. Or maybe China is weird. I'm still not quite sure if the "Albeit Macht Frei" sticker on the stairs up to the airplane was real or not.
What's the weirdest thing you've seen that you weren't sure was real or not?
-
When I was little, my parents took me to an airshow, and two planes crashed into each other. Both pilots died. It was surreal. Still haunts me from time to time, and it might be a part of the reason I don't like flying.
How the hell do you turn up the volume on 0bsessions' VCR/Projector setup? He left like an hour ago.

No.
Why the fuck are people necroposting in a thread that's been dead for close to a year?
-
Still, why would a new forum member search through pages of threads to find a thread that hasn't been used in over a year to post in. If he wants to uselessly post, we have threads for that (pointless thread). This kinda thing weirds me out.
-
This happens. Usually, they are one of a few things: confused, a troll, or a non-rule-reader. I usually just assume it's the second one and ignore it.
-
That thread was worth having around. This thread was always kind of a waste of space.
