self-examination through memes

[ironymaiden]

spazzychic brought back my favorite.
ask me to ask you five questions, post the answers, offer to do the same for others. yeah. or you can ask me some...i'm all for oversharing today.

1: You're going to be sent out in a rubber boat to a desert island with nothing but fruit trees and a nifty waterfall for 4 years. You are allowed one free volleyball and 10 other items. What do you bring?

is C an item? if he is then that's #1
4 years of sunscreen
4 years of bug repellant
DivaCup (although i haven't tried this yet, i think it would be excellent)
rope
frying pan
hatchet
swiss army knife
flint & steel
whetstone

and if i can't have C, a dutch oven

2: If you could posess someone elses body for 20 minutes, who would it be and what would you do?
because i believe in the electoral process, my gut response can slide. i'd like to get inside an astronaut and just spend some time looking out the window in the international space station.

3: If there was no George Bush to vote against, who would you vote for?
John McCain, i think. most people seem to want a class president kind of leader -cute, popular, about 10 IQ points ahead of them. i would prefer to have somebody with 20 WIS, 18 INT and the other scores can be whatever. how about Thomas Jefferson or Lincoln? they're presidential material.

4: You are in an alternate universe where you are living your dream life. What's different?
i still live in Seattle, but in this house just up the hill with some large trees and a view (i am this house's stalker, in this universe.) i have a dog or two. C writes, for which he is paid an exorbitant amount of money, and i direct about three plays a year of my choice. i've received a MacArthur genius grant, which i'm using to refurbish a working steam whistle and produce Sweeney Todd in a decaying factory. we travel regularly, take classes at UW, and i'm learning glassblowing and blacksmithing. my hair is the same auburn as my grandfather's, and i'm a C cup. C is at his ideal weight and wears his kilt often, we do yoga and tai chi every day, and go for long rambles with the dog. we don't drive our VW very often because the monorail goes everywhere...

5: Spork?
it's both a spoon and a fork, yet it doesn't do the work of either well enough. i probably should have had it on my desert island list except that i'm so prone to bugbites. i like the ones that used to come from Kentucky Fried Chicken best.

and i took the roleplaying Purity Test, but i am more pure than average, so i won't bother posting. this comes largely from the fact that i have NEVER RUN A GAME.

and with that in mind, my favorite drinking game in all the world is "I Never." you drink each time you have done whatever it was. each person takes a turn making a statement. you can always say something you have done, and take a drink. it's part "getting to know you" and part strategy game, since the knowledge you have about the people in the group can be used to destroy them. your choice if destruction means getting them tanked, keeping them sober, or exposing them to the rest of the group...

the most memorable one i heard was "i never had sex while high on heroin *chug*"

you never rode in a taxi?

[ironymaiden]

actually, now that i think about it, i rode in one in Florida when i was a kid. but it was one of those unregulated Caddies. i've never been in a real taxicab, flagged or scheduled one as an adult.

[msanborn.livejournal.com]

so that was more of a "car" service than a taxi anyhow :)

and the taxi was unusual

[ironymaiden]

i'm not sure if i'm pleased or disappointed that nobody asked about the threesome :)

3 Somes..

[msanborn.livejournal.com]

it's kind of amusing that I put that I have had one (sortof) and my best friend in Florida theresaboo put that she never had one, when it was with her and this guy she liked that I could say I almost sorta did have one.

so .. do you WANT to talk about the 3 some? Some people might not have asked because some people aren't open to discussing it.
