Beer!

so Health
how about something simple - Pepsi or Coca Cola :D
Natasha Brookes wrote:
Urgh - personally, I can't stand either. So I guess I'd choose Coke - I can clean the bathroom sink with it. :)
Willow & Oz, or Willow & Tara?

oooh.....um.....
Willow and Tara. I like Oz, but he's overly sane. thats scarey. Plus that was mean Heather!
Oreos or Millies Cookies?
Daye wrote:
This is hard. What the heck is a Millies Cookie? Oh well. I absolutely detest oreos, so Millies Cookies, i guess, whatever they are.
Ok.
Beach or Mountains?

Beach. The cool rocky shores of Humboldt county.
Okay
Sex or Romantic Love (without contact)

Your Death or The Death of a loved one

My Death. Losing loved ones is very hard, and I've done my share. I am not afraid of death, but i am afraid of loss.
Happy Work or Unhappy Wealth
Sam Aubrey wrote:
Thought I don't know either, i choose Happy Work. *sigh* I'd love to be one of those people who've found his or her niche.
I'm already poor, so I know you can survive, barely.
I'm not even a "penniless sitar player." I wish I could play a sitar, heh.
A desert island of complete beauty while being alone or a combusted stinking filthy city with lots of friends.
Catherine Wiccham wrote:
Oh I'd love a penniless Sitar player, Oh sorry, yeah I'd prefer to live in a combusted stinking filthy city with lots of friends - loneliness is a curse and would slowly drive you mad.
okay, urm, how about....
Being Pretty but hated by everyone OR being ugly and popular?
Sam Aubrey wrote:
(jeez Greg, and evil game you started.)
Well, I'd choose pretty and hated.
If i'm pretty, I will be seen eventually by someone worth knowing.
I hope.
Great musician or Great Drawer? (not as tough)
Daye wrote:
Great musician. I would love to be able to play an instrument or even to sing. I am terrible, tone deaf and flat as all get out.
Lose your sight or your hearing?
Victor wrote:
Lose my hearing. Without my sight I could not funtion, I'd be totally lost. I could at least compensate for the loss of hearing.
Fight or Flight?

Fight, I'm afraid. I'm a "stand your ground" kinda chick.
Breast or thigh?
Poultry, you pervs.

Book.

The house is burning and you can rescue one person, so...
Save your life partner, or save your sibling? (And I know that's a nasty one - I'd hate to have to make that choice. I originally put partner or child, but figured that was too easy. :crazyeyes: )

Living in the city, or living in the country?
Galen Eldridge wrote:
Living in the city. The country has quite so loud, it keeps you awake for hours on end. :)
Intellectual beauty or physical beauty?
Jadyn wrote:
physical beauty. *grins*
what is intellectual beauty anyway? being smart or being nice? call me shallow but i realise that i don't have to be THAT smart to get ahead in this world. just a modicum of common sense and knowing how to take the initiative gets me further than all the brains in the world sometimes...
as for being nice... well, i've been called a bitch more often than i can count but it doesn't bother me. *shrugs* no matter how nice u are, someone always finds a reason to hate u anyway. and of course, i kinda like being a bitch. *rolls eyes and grins again*
say u were suffering from a horribly disfiguring terminal illness... would u rather die surrounded by friends and family or alone so no one could see u suffer and wither away? (this is an evil one, i know...)
Natasha Brookes wrote:
Intellectual beauty, every time. The shell is just that - a shell.
DOH! April answered it first... Ah, well - I'll answer hers, then.
Hmm, toughie. But much as it would be painful for them to watch, I think my family would prefer to be with me until the end. And I would hate to die alone under such circumstances. So, surrounded by family and friends.
Comfort or fashion?
Catherine Wiccham wrote:
Fashion!!! Everytime! Which doesn't do any good for my poor feet I can tell you! Or being freezing cold on a Saturday night because I decided to wear the little strappy dress WITHOUT a jacket (well it ruined the look of the outfit) what can i say? Sometimes you have to put up with a little discomfort to look good - why else would women wear bras in the first place? OUCH!
Okay, Summer or Winter?
Reanna Kossinton wrote:
Is this a trick question :? SUMMER :D give me the sun and the surf! although i do like winter, that's good for snowboarding, although i'm usually rugging up for warmth...which i get automatically in summer, not to mention the ability to walk around half naked without being frowned upon :mrgreen:
McDonalds or KFC (i dont even know why i thought of this one :roll: )

Politicians or Lawyers?
Mantheana wrote:
oooh. lawyers. my reasoning being that even if they are evil, they can still get you outa shite (for a nominial(!) fee). Where as politicians only ever seem to create shite or get countries into shite. so yeah, lawyers...
Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings? (films)
Natasha Brookes wrote:
Oh, Lord of the Rings, without a doubt.
Better comedian:
Rowan Atkinson or Billy Connelly?
Victor wrote:
Rowan Atkinson without a doubt. He has much more universal appeal, Billy Connelly seems to be very culturally based (but is still very funny)
Faith or Facts?
Natasha Brookes wrote:
I have to go with Facts on this one. I find it very hard to take things on faith - give me proof.
Friends or Family?
Daye wrote:
Ooooh, you're evil. My friends are like my family. Still, I have to say family. (under duress, mind you.)
Halloween or Christmas?
Victor wrote:
Halloween
I am not a Christmas kinda guy. I enjoy christmas, but the chance to fress up and make a silly ass of yourself, and then its all over the next day. Wonderful. Beats the weeks leading into and out of the christmas season.
Art or Music
Daye wrote:
Music, has to be music. It's such an integral part of my life, right?
ok, so...
train or boat?
Natasha Brookes wrote:
Equally evil, Kris. I love travelling by train, but I also love boats (sailboats, not the yukky noisy kind.) I think, on the balance of things, that I'll go with:
Boats.
LABN or Real Life? :D
Sam Aubrey wrote:
Real Life.
(Of course, I found real life on LABN.)
Nostalgia or Science Fiction?

Science Fiction which is for me nostalgic because the stuff I have read has coincided with so many events in my life.
Death or Cake (no wait that's an Eddie Izzard routine...what I meant was...)
Death or Taxes

Buffy or Angel?

Buffy. Can't stand Angel. :P
Poor but Wise or Rich but Foolish?
Victor wrote:
Ooh...I have to get in on this action first...
Buffy without whom Angel would have been another Forever Knight knockoff.
Rats! Claim jumped!
Poor but Wise. Because I have already had the Rich but Foolish bit, and it always winds up as poor but wise
Internet or Television?
Catherine Wiccham wrote:
Buffy! Always Buffy - although Angel's just starting to get good.... but Buffy has more hunks like Giles *sighs* and Xander and Oz and SPIKE hmmm, Spike... hmmm
Oh jeez Dave you beat me! Grr... I was thinking too long about Spike... hmmmmm and Giles.. hmmmmm *snaps out of it*
Okay, urm, TV it was my first love, and you know you can use the internet on you TV and, urm also, tv on your PC, where's the difference???
In answer to Adam's question I'd have to say Rich and Foolish - that way i get to stay the same but have money too! :D
Bronzed and Beautiful or Pale and Interesting?
Victor wrote:
Ugh. Tough one, Lou!
I know plenty of Bronzed and Beutiful people who are interesting. I also know plenty of pale and interesting people who are beautiful. BUT given my druthers, I'd say pale and interesting.
Thats what most of my friends are anyway.
Technology or Magic?
Catherine Wiccham wrote:
i'd have to say magic, just because the belief in magic would give me something to believe in that is higher than myself. Whereas technology has it's limits it is always bound by the intelligence and ingenuity of man. Magic is in the hands of the gods and so is limitless in its possibilities.
Imagination or Reason?
Sam Aubrey wrote:
Reason! (I've got imagination, and it ain't all it's cracked up to be.)
Also, I'd say magick and technology are the same thing. We just haven't explained magick yet. We've explained technology. (Not that I believe in magick of course, ahem)

Finding $10.00 in your pocket
---or---
Finding $10.00 on the street
Catherine Wiccham wrote:
Good one Dave, i'd have to say, finding $10 in my pocket - although that would be weird, finding American money in my pocket and never having been there. But if I found the money on the street, sure i';d be chuffed, but then the guilt would set in that it belonged to someone else and that I had 'stolen' it and should hand it in.. Oh the guilt! :angel:
Work with Animals or Children?
Sam Aubrey wrote:
Jesus Christ on a pogo stick!!! Animals, of course.
Children.....brrrrrrrrr.........
Okay, I already know my answer, but this one's good for you potential parents our there, and I assume we're all faithful by nature. So this should be tough.
Vasectomy
or
Infidelity.
Daye wrote:
Not so tough for the ladies. Just kidding, Sid. This is a really awful question to be honest. I would have to say, ugh...the vasectomy is such a major thing, but better than being a betrayer, right?

Lestat or Armand?

would u prefer a marriage where u have
- fantastic sex but no love or
- true love but absolutely no sex?
Natasha Brookes wrote:
Despite the general impression that I'm sex-obsessed, I would choose
True Love with No Sex.
Sex without love is hollow and meaningless - essentially it becomes partnered masturbation. It's the depth of emotion that brings life to sex.
So, how about...
Six months living like James Bond, or 50 years living like Homer Simpson?

Never being able to watch Buffy again (including the upcoming Season 7), or never being able to watch anything BUT Buffy?
Stalker wrote:
hmmm considering I don't watch tv much at all (exept to watch videos) hmm I don't really know I'd say never being able to watch BtVS cause then there is also Angel and I wouldn't wanna miss that either and plus I can also catch up with everything BtVS on the net.
So to recap my answer is Never being able to watch Buffy again.
Killing one person you love and then being caught (you go to jail for 50 years) or Killing fifty people you don't know and not being caught (everyone knows you did it but you run away to a carrabien island and live in luxury)

Killing one person I love and getting caught. This is because I would probably be going through hell anywayz for killing the one person I love so I might as well do it in prison for 50 years then have the death of 50 people on my consious and living in luxury even though i'd be going through hell!
To love the one person you ever love in the world and lose them and never love anyone ever again or never having to love at all!
Catherine Wiccham wrote:
Oh this is too easy and i am a total slave to romance here. "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all." The heart is there to be broken (unfortunately) I would rather meet THE ONE and loose him than never know what it feels like to have that kind of love.
Whom do you love more, Mom or Dad?
Stalker wrote:
That's not even a question I love them both thats like asking what do you like red or red there is no answer my answer will have to be Dad though because I hate it when people write 'mom' it's not mom its mum I love my mummy and I love my daddy and I miss my dad so much I wish he was still alive but I don't have magic, so wishes don't mean squat.
Which would you prefer:
smoking, lung cancer and death at the age 49 or not smoking, a long life and a happy family and not leaving your whole family without YOU
Natasha Brookes wrote:
Bit of a no-brainer, especially for me (major asthmatic, so can't take other peoples' smoke, let alone trying it for myself... I'd be dead already).

Also, if I may backtrack:
I'd choose Homer Simpson. I was homer when I was married and I loved life. Hard to love me, but I loved life.
I'd choose to be on the bottom as the girl is having fun, because I'm lazy as long as things are working like clockwork (why fix them), and breasts in your face are just lovely, and you can carress her like a work of art in the meantime, and .... *ahem*. Okay...
I'd choose Jean-Luc anyday. Whoo, i want that man for my dad!

Uhm...Greek, but it was a tough choice. Really tough.

So, to marry and then meet your soulmate, or never to have met your soulmate at all.
Victor wrote:
I am going to answer this and spare the lot of you the pain and anguish of brutal truth.
The former. I would rather marry and find my soulmate afterwards, becasue never knowing the person you were destined to be with is a lonely lonely existance,. And who knows the person you married might have been a wonderful mate as well. Two loves in a lifetime isn't a bad thing.
Good or Evil
Catherine Wiccham wrote:
Actually it didn't seem that tough a decision to me Dave, I would have chosen to meet my soul mate under ANY circumstances. A connection like that can't be ignored.

And that reminded me of some Shoe Philosopy I want to share with y'all.... sit down and get comfy -
Shoe designer Christian Louboutin's 5 essential shoes -
1: A pair of kitten heeled mules for running errands in during the day
2: A pair of high heeled mules for showing off them calves and ankles at night
3: A pair of thigh high boots in PVC for falling in love (obviously too much Pretty Woman)
4: A pair of high heels for good girls to go to heaven - round toe, matt fabric
5: A pair of high heels for bad girls to go anywhere - pointy toe in leather
Okay that's it - back to the game...
Keeping in line with all that...
Killer High Heels or Flatter than flats?

I have to say, given the extreme lower back pain from killer high heels, these days I tend to go for flats. Though on occasion I still break out the 3-inch stilettos. :)
And even though we're not supposed to go back, I have to answer Kris' choice.Quote:So, to marry and then meet your soulmate, or never to have met your soulmate at all.
Most of you know my current circumstances and how I got there... so for me the answer is definitely to marry and then meet your soulmate. Despite the emotional roller coaster of splitting up with my husband, I wouldn't change a single thing on the road that led me to Dave. The thought that I might have lived my entire life never knowing he was out there is just too horrible to contemplate.
OK, enough soppy stuff. My question...
Fact, or fantasy?
Sam Aubrey wrote:
Fact! (at least the facts that we all accept as true, because facts change)
Living in fantasy if fun until you have to be a memeber of the real world. Then it's just lonely. I'm the little boy who never stopped dreaming.

it depends weather Getting your foot cut off with a chainsaw and then bleeding to death is done acidentaly or not if it's me that did it by acident then yes that's the answer but if it's some mass murderer who is then going to place me in some strange position or bury me, I'd rather let my mum watch me drink bleach but it all depends on why I'm doing thoughs things, actually,I'm facinated why would someone drink bleach? (they'd have to be pretty stupid) I mean it doesn't even taste nice and it burns all the way down!

2) Base it on skill. Every day, for as long as you can keep it up, you must throw a dart at a dart board. You start out right at the face of the dart board; you can simply press the tip in. But the next day, you must step back from that spot by 1 inch. The day after that, another inch. And another inch the day after that. There is no limit to how far back you can get, but there is a limit to how far you can throw, of course. The first time you completely miss the dart board, you suffer five seconds of the most hideous pain imaginable. Then you die with poop in your drawers.

I would take peace and lonliness over pain and love. I had peace and lonliness and its not that bad. But all the love in the world could not overcome pain. It makes it easier, but in the end the pain always wins.

And for yours, Sid, I don't think I could bear to see Victor with anyone else, so I'd have to say Tash and Sorrow... though right now she's just as likely to scratch out his eyes.

Bit ambiguous there...
Well, if topless means simply 'without a hat' then I'd go for topless. Not much into hats (unless it's to keep the sun off while bushwalking).
On the OTHER hand, if topless is completely topless, then (in public anyway) I'd have to wear a hat.

I would have to say Galen and Kate simply because a roleplayed relationship is so much more 'alive' when two different people are playing the two parts. When it's one person conducting both sides there are no surprises (on the part of the player involved, at least). Louisa always knew what Luc would be doing. With Galen, however, she has Adam's input to contend with. Makes for a more spontaneous and involved relationship, I feel.

A ton of feathers

A ton of Rocks
Sam Aubrey wrote:
I wasn't going to answer for awhile, because I play this ToT game too much. BUT
I simply must see how many feathers it takes to make a ton. And how do you get them all together? In a room? Is there a room big enough? You'd have to gather them outside, maybe in the Grand Canyon. But what keeps them from blowing away? Can we use the ton of rocks to hold them down? Does the Ton of rocks spread wide enough to cover the feathers?
Or am I mistaken? Is a ton of feathers not all that many?
Where do we get a ton of feathers? From a fraction of a ton of chickens? Who do we get to pluck the chickens? A fraction of a fraction of a ton of migrant workers?
How do we keep our chicken-pluckers happy? Do we pay them in peanuts? That's a lot of peanuts. Not necessarily a ton, but I don't even know where we'd find so many peanuts. Peanuts ain't cheap, either. And neither is alergy medication. With a ton of feathers, there's damn well going to be a ton of sneezing.
I say we start a pillow factory. Then we'll need a ton of pillow cases. But won't that leave us with some pillow cases left over? (I don't know; I'm getting confused. This should be simple to figure out.) Should we fill the pillow cases with the rocks?
And who is paying for all this anyway, Dave, I ask you? No: I beg of you! Who?
Quite frankley, Mr. Dent, I don't think you put nearly enough thought into this question as you should have. Or maybe you did. Maybe you knew precisely what you were doing to me. And I don't appreciate it. This was an evil question. Perhaps the most evil question so far.
