velcro guy...I mean, that's got to be a lot more complicated than simple adhesive, right?

At dinner, maybe $12? 20% plus a couple of extra bucks. At lunch it would maybe $9.

15. If Bert & Ernie were gay lovers, which one do you think plays the dominant male role?

8. I can handle whatever you got baybee
1. If you were going to be executed by the state, what method of execution would you prefer - the chair, lethal injection or the gas chamber?
None of the above. :-) Seriously though. No gas chamber - too stinky. I'm not sure whether the chair or injection would hurt less but I vote for whichever one is gonna cuase me the least pain.

2. Who was a smarter man, the guy who invented Post-It notes or the guy who invented velcro?
I don't know the story behind post-it notes but I do know how velcro got "invented" and I think that guy was pretty sharp. He saw something in nature that is a nuisance and made it into something useful.

3. How much of a tip do you leave if you received excellent service and your bill was $50?
$10 - maybe $12

4. What cable channel do you secretly watch that you hope nobody else finds out about?
I don't have cable.

5. Who has a sexier mouth - LL Cool J or Gina Gershon?
LL Cool J...yumm

6. What brand of syrup do you put on your pancakes?
TJ Blackburn cane syrup - it's way better than maple syrup. Much thicker.

7. What would you rather have - a child who is super-smart, but anti-social or a child who is of average intelligence but is very social?
Super smart and anti-social - I was like that as a kid so I'd know how to deal with them.

8. What color is the carpeting in your living room?
Beige. Every apartment in the world has beige carpet. I hate beige. x(

9. If you could keep a dinosaur as a pet, what type of dinosaur would you keep?
Triceratops just because I think they look neat.

10. Who had a better singing voice - James Taylor or Cat Stevens?
James Taylor. I just adore him. My best friend takes me to see him in concert every couple of years.

11. Complete this sentence: "Children should not have sex until they are at least ________ years old."
I can't really answer this - it varies depending on the kid. I do think kids shouldn't have sex with someone a lot older than them and that anything below high school age is definitely TOO young.

12. Better theme park - Disneyland or Disneyworld?
Never been to either one so I can't say.

13. What insulting name did kids used to call you in school?
Barbarian (my real first name is Barbara)

14. Who's a better writer, Will Pitt or Paul Krugman?
I suppose I have to say Will. Wouldn't want to hurt his feelings. :-)

15. If Bert & Ernie were gay lovers, which one do you think plays the dominant male role?
Don't be so narrow minded. Who says there has to be a dominant partner. Sheesh.

That said - I think Ernie is a bossy-bottom. ;-)

10. And the First Answer Is...
Edited on Thu Dec-11-03 10:30 AM by ribofunk
1. If you were going to be executed by the state, what method of execution would you prefer - the chair, lethal injection or the gas chamber?

The chair -- might as well go out in a blast.

2. Who was a smarter man, the guy who invented Post-It notes or the guy who invented velcro?

Velcro, because Post-It was an accident.

3. How much of a tip do you leave if you received excellent service and your bill was $50?

$10-11

4. What cable channel do you secretly watch that you hope nobody else finds out about?

The Hispanic channels -- because I don't speak Spanish, I just like to look at the Mexican babes.

5. Who has a sexier mouth - LL Cool J or Gina Gershon?

How could I pick LL Cool J?

6. What brand of syrup do you put on your pancakes?

Genuine maple -- whatever brand is available.

7. What would you rather have - a child who is super-smart, but anti-social or a child who is of average intelligence but is very social?

I have a child who's well-adjusted but not as smart as me or her mother. I think she'll have a better life, but I wish sometimes she were more of a bookworm.

8. What color is the carpeting in your living room?

Beige

9. If you could keep a dinosaur as a pet, what type of dinosaur would you keep?

Geez, hard to find something snuggly from the Triassic period. Maybe a Diplodocus would be nice if I lived near a swamp.

10. Who had a better singing voice - James Taylor or Cat Stevens?

Cat, although JT is a better songwriter.

11. Complete this sentence: "Children should not have sex until they are at least ________ years old."

17

12. Better theme park - Disneyland or Disneyworld?

Never been to Disneyland. I assume Disney World represents an improvement.

13. What insulting name did kids used to call you in school?

I saw a piece of graffitti referring to me as a "veemee". I never figured that one out -- please send me a personal message if you do.

14. Who's a better writer, Will Pitt or Paul Krugman?

Not a fair question -- they're different writers from different backgrounds at different stages of their career. Will is more inspirational; PK is more scholarly.

15. If Bert & Ernie were gay lovers, which one do you think plays the dominant male role?

Bert

14. Krugman is a God, but Will Pitt is pretty damn good.

15. A tough one. Ernie is bossier, but Bert is taller....

14. Anna one, anna two...
1. Gas chamber, on the hope that it would be the least painful

2. The guy who invented velcro. Post-It notes really were a mistake; I read the 3-M story about them. A product for which was created a use. Come to think of it, maybe the 3-M people who figured out how to sell it to a gullible public were...nah.

3. I'd leave ten or fifteen or twenty, depending on what was in my wallet. BTW, always leave cash as tip instead of adding to your credit card -- it helps the waiter/ess with their taxes ;)

4. E! What glorious trash.

5. Gina Gershon. What's happened to her lately?

6. Whatever's on the table (I don't eat pancakes at home; neither of us wants to go to the trouble of cooking and then cleaning. So when I eat them, it's in a restaurant).

7. A child who is of average intelligence but is very social.

8. An off-white, mauve, cream, something-or-other.

9. Velociraptor. In a strong cage.

10. James Taylor.

11. 16.

12. Disneyworld -- have't been to Anaheim.

13. Doral -- "Taste me! Taste me!"

14. Paul Krugman, but I only have Will's book, so far.

15. Ernie, I suppose.

19. here goes
1. Executed?
Give me the needle. Less suffering.

2. Post-It or velcro?
Velcro. Not an accident.

3. Tip?
20% is my standard, so maybe $15 for "excellent."

4. Secret cable channel?
I have to admit that I occasionally visit the dark side of Faux, but only in very limited amounts. Most of the time, I cannot stand those bastards.

5. Sexier mouth?
Gina, but that's just me.

6. Syrup?
Since Atkins, no pancakes or syrup. Bummer.

7. Child?
Super-smart. We need all the brains we can get. Social skills you can teach.

8. Carpeting?
Wood floors with a white area rug. The cats love it.

9. Dinosaur?
Triceratops. Always liked them best. So does my daughter, Sarah.

10. Singing voice?
JT. Though I may be prejudiced by his songwriting.

11. Children ... sex?
At least 16, but preferably later.

12. Disney?
Only been to Florida, so can't really say. Big theme parks are not my favorite.

13. Insulting name?
Can't remember. Must have blocked it out.

14. Will or Paul?
Love them both. Depends on who is madder at the time.

15. Bert & Ernie?
Bert - height dominates.

20. Okay . . .
1. If you were going to be executed by the state, what method of execution would you prefer - the chair, lethal injection or the gas chamber?

Dead is dead, injection I guess.

2. Who was a smarter man, the guy who invented Post-It notes or the guy who invented velcro?

Both were accidents really (for those that don't know, velcro was accidentally discovered when felt and corduroy came in contact with each other at NASA felt-corduroy ended up as velcro).

3. How much of a tip do you leave if you received excellent service and your bill was $50?

$10-$15 (depends on my mood)

4. What cable channel do you secretly watch that you hope nobody else finds out about?

Fox :)

5. Who has a sexier mouth - LL Cool J or Gina Gershon?

LOL . . . ummmm. . . Gina?

6. What brand of syrup do you put on your pancakes?

Anything from Vermont that isn't labeled as diet, lite, sugar free, etc.

7. What would you rather have - a child who is super-smart, but anti-social or a child who is of average intelligence but is very social?

super smart and antisocial, that way the child would be just like his dad :)

8. What color is the carpeting in your living room?

Green

9. If you could keep a dinosaur as a pet, what type of dinosaur would you keep?

I'd have to go with some kind of herbivore . . . what were the ones that were herd animals in the first Jurassic Park movie? (not pack animals like the velociraptors, herd animals that were being chased by the t-rex).

10. Who had a better singing voice - James Taylor or Cat Stevens?

Tough call. I'd have to go with Cat Stevens, but Taylor is a MUCH better guitarist.

11. Complete this sentence: "Children should not have sex until they are at least ________ years old."

Depends on the child.

12. Better theme park - Disneyland or Disneyworld?

Disneyland, never been to Disneyworld, so can't in good faith vote for it.

13. What insulting name did kids used to call you in school?

What DIDN'T they call me would be an easier question :).

14. Who's a better writer, Will Pitt or Paul Krugman?

Couldn't say.

15. If Bert & Ernie were gay lovers, which one do you think plays the dominant male role?

Bert obviously. Ernie is too submissive.

21. Bucky at da bat
1. executed by the state
I would prefer to be hanged in the public square. It's much more dramatic and no other method is more humane. If forced to choose, I'll go with injection. I'm familiar with that experience.

2. Post-It notes guy or velcro guy
Magic Rat is more clever than both, but less more clever than velcro guy.

3. tip for excellent service
$5 for the table and $2 for each person at the table. The 15% thing is a racket.

4. cable channel?
Lifetime. I'm secretly in love with Mare Winningham.

5. LL Cool J or Gina Gershon?
I'm a straight guy. Unfair question.

6. brand of syrup
Varies, but it's always real, pure maple syrup and never anything with high fructose corn syrup.

7. super-smart, anti-social or average intelligence but very social
I already have the former. I pick the devil I know.

8. carpeting
tan

9. dinosaur pet
velociraptor, but chained up in the back yard

10. James Taylor or Cat Stevens
the muslim

11. "Children should not have sex until they are at least old enough not to be called "children" any more.

12. Disneyland or Disneyworld
I don't know the difference.

13. insulting name
*

14. Will Pitt or Paul Krugman
Which William Pitt are we talking about?

15. Bert & Ernie
Elmo in a perverted three-way

1. Lethal injection, but I would rather have a firing squad if I had a real choice.
2. Velcro
3. Excellent service? I always say that if you can't leave a nice tip don't go out. If it was good enough I would match the bill (I've done it before.)

6. Light colored real stuff, I buy as much as I can early in the season, but I have no brand.

24. My answers:

  1. If you were going to be executed by the state, what method of execution would you prefer - the chair, lethal injection or the gas chamber?: I suppose lethal injection. Don't they knock you out first before they kill you?

  2. Who was a smarter man, the guy who invented Post-It notes or the guy who invented velcro?: I use post-its more than velcro, so I would have to say the Post-it guy

  3. How much of a tip do you leave if you received excellent service and your bill was $50?: About $10

  4. What cable channel do you secretly watch that you hope nobody else finds out about?: I watch MTv. I grew up on Real World & Road Rules and I still watch those shows

  5. Who has a sexier mouth - LL Cool J or Gina Gershon?: None of the above?

  6. What brand of syrup do you put on your pancakes?: I don't eat pancakes or anything else that requires syrup (it's a carb thing). But I did see that Log Cabin put out a syrup that Diabetics could use, which means I could probably use it too

  7. What would you rather have - a child who is super-smart, but anti-social or a child who is of average intelligence but is very social?: Since I'm the super-smart and somewhat anti-social, I'll do the same for my kid - which I'm not having any anyways

  8. What color is the carpeting in your living room?: Standard issue dull blue carpert. I live in an apartment and it's the same color throughout.

  9. If you could keep a dinosaur as a pet, what type of dinosaur would you keep?: I'd like one of those little cute ones that eat plants. It would be foolish to keep something that eats human. You'd think those folks at Jurassic Park would have thought of that before cloning Velicorapters and T. Rexs

  10. Who had a better singing voice - James Taylor or Cat Stevens?: I love James Taylor - he's great music to have great sex with!

  11. Complete this sentence: "Children should not have sex until they are at least ________ years old." Old enough to understand the concepts of safe sex, the stupidity of having children while you're still in school and all that other important stuff.

  12. Better theme park - Disneyland or Disneyworld?: None of the above. I'm HersheyPark happy!!!

  13. What insulting name did kids used to call you in school?: Casper or Ghost. I never bothered to go tanning in the summer and therefore I was a pretty pale kid. I have the last laugh though. They all look really old and I still get carded to buy booze

  14. Who's a better writer, Will Pitt or Paul Krugman?: I'd have to say Will. I bought Paul's book but grew weary of reading it after awhile (although what he wrote was good)

  15. If Bert & Ernie were gay lovers, which one do you think plays the dominant male role?: Ernie is too goofy to be the alpha male. So it would have to be Bert

35. uhhh...
1. I would prefer an execution like this: 5 would-be executioners and I all go into the forest. If I get shot, the executioner immediately has to put a bullet between my eyes, to minimize suffering. If I can kill all five executioners (I'll have guns too), I get to go free. That way I'll go down shooting, taking as many of my enemies with me as I possibly can, which is the way I wanted to go anway.

2. Post-Its, even though I don't use them.

3. $8 or $9.

4. I don't watch much TV at all.

5. Gina Gershon. OMG, so hot.

6. Whatever's handy. Fake maple syrup from Price Chopper is the best stuff though.

7. A kid who is smart (not super-smart) and social (not extremely social). In other words, one who is like me.

8. Well if you count my dorm room as a living room, it's kind of a blueish-purple-gray.

9. Uhhhh... one of the small ones.

10. Cat Stevens.

11. 17

12. Disney-World. Never been to Disney-Land.

13. I honestly can't think of one! (Hooray for me, then)

14. They're both awesome, in different ways.

15. Bert, because he's the more responsible one. That's not to say that women or effeminate gay men aren't responsible, though. That's just my opinion.

40. Okay, cool, I can do this....
1. If you were going to be executed by the state, what method of execution would you prefer - the chair, lethal injection or the gas chamber?
> Firing squad. Ooops, not on there, eh. Well, then, the needle. Sigh.

2. Who was a smarter man, the guy who invented Post-It notes or the guy who invented velcro?
> A friend of a friend invented post-it notes - only he didn't - he was trying to come up with a new glue type, and he got this damn stuff that wouldn't hold. He didn't realize what he had. Just as well, because he was working for 3-m at the time, & probably wouldn't have been able to keep much of it. Anyway, I vote for velcro.

3. How much of a tip do you leave if you received excellent service and your bill was $50?
> My son't a bartender, so I'd leave at least 20% - and probably go for 15 bucks if it was really excellent.

4. What cable channel do you secretly watch that you hope nobody else finds out about?
> I don't watch tv with any regularity at all.

5. Who has a sexier mouth - LL Cool J or Gina Gershon?
> Who?

6. What brand of syrup do you put on your pancakes?
> Trader Joe's maple syrup.

7. What would you rather have - a child who is super-smart, but anti-social or a child who is of average intelligence but is very social?
> You know, super-smart kids are usually pertty social, too - that's an incorrect stereotype. They do tend to be impatient with slower people, though. Anyway, I'd rather have the super-smart kid.

8. What color is the carpeting in your living room?
> It's hardwood floor, with a rug that we bought from a grad student from Iran, years ago. He'd brought along a bunch when he came to school to sell ocassionally when he needed money.

9. If you could keep a dinosaur as a pet, what type of dinosaur would you keep?
> Something long-necked and herbivorous - help keep our trees trimmed.

10. Who had a better singing voice - James Taylor or Cat Stevens?
Cat Stevens - he writes better ongs, too.

11. Complete this sentence: "Children should not have sex until they are at least ________ years old."
> They shouldn't be children when they're having sex.

12. Better theme park - Disneyland or Disneyworld?
> Do you prefer Florida or California? CALIFORNIA!!!!!

13. What insulting name did kids used to call you in school?
> I really don't remember - I was an outsider, and didn't really get those sorts of things

14. Who's a better writer, Will Pitt or Paul Krugman?
> I don't get to read Krugman nearly as much as I get to read Will - I think we're doing an apples & oranges thing here, because what I read of Will is here on the board, whereas Krugman's stuff is his polished published columns - real style difference because of the audience. Besides, Krugman's an economist whereas Will's, ummmmmm.....

15. If Bert & Ernie were gay lovers, which one do you think plays the dominant male role?
> Ernie - no question about it....

43. I'm a sucker for this sort of thing
Mainly because I'm bored.

1) Lethal injection.
2) Velcro. When I think of post-it notes I think of corporate America and the cubicle culture. Ugh.
3) Excellent service gets 20%, so $10.00.
4) TBN and Pax.
5) I don't know, I haven't paid much attention to the mouths of Gina or LL.
6) I hate pancakes, but if I have to eat one, I'll put on peanut butter and regular ole' maple.
7) I'd rather have a child with good common sense.
8) I call it "grey" but I'm sure there's an actual name for the color.
9) A small one that I could put in my fish tank.
10) Barry Manilow.
11) 21 would be ideal, but 18 as a minimum. You've got to get 'em educated first and then have the babies.
12) Disneyworld has more stuff to do but man is Orlando HUMID.
13) No one called me anything. I was ignored...wah.
14) Can't say, never read either writer.
15) Bert.

49. My Answers
1. If you were going to be executed by the state, what method of execution would you prefer - the chair, lethal injection or the gas chamber?

Lethal injection, I guess.

2. Who was a smarter man, the guy who invented Post-It notes or the guy who invented velcro?

I think they're both great, but Velcro is more important in the long run, and doesn't clutter up your desk like post-it notes.

3. How much of a tip do you leave if you received excellent service and your bill was $50?

I would leave somewhere between 15% and 20%.

4. What cable channel do you secretly watch that you hope nobody else finds out about?

I don't think any of my channels are secretly guilty.

5. Who has a sexier mouth - LL Cool J or Gina Gershon?

Don't know.

6. What brand of syrup do you put on your pancakes?

Usually pure maple syrup. I don't care for anything with corn syrup in it.

7. What would you rather have - a child who is super-smart, but anti-social or a child who is of average intelligence but is very social?

I agree with who ever posted that the child should be happy, first. I think I'd rather they be better socialized--it's easier on the child in the long run.

8. What color is the carpeting in your living room?

Hardwood floor. Wish it were carpet, though.

9. If you could keep a dinosaur as a pet, what type of dinosaur would you keep?

A brachiasaurus--the gentle giant.

10. Who had a better singing voice - James Taylor or Cat Stevens?

James Taylor is great, but Cat is good, too.

11. Complete this sentence: "Children should not have sex until they are at least ________ years old."

It depends on the kid. But I would say at least 16.

12. Better theme park - Disneyland or Disneyworld?

Never been to Disneyworld, but have been to Disneyland many times. I love it, but it's a workout.

13. What insulting name did kids used to call you in school?

I don't recall if there were ever real insults. "Dreamer" perhaps, but that's not really insulting.

14. Who's a better writer, Will Pitt or Paul Krugman?

Both are excellent writers.

As far as bad writers, I wouldn't hesitate to mention Ann Coulter. :blech

15. If Bert & Ernie were gay lovers, which one do you think plays the dominant male role?

Depends on which Bert and Ernie. If you're talking about the guys from "It's a Wonderful Life," I'd say the cop (Bert) would be dominant. If you're talking about the Muppets, probably Bert again.

2. Velcro. Definitely. That stuff saved my life when I sucked at tying shoes in kindergarten. :)

3. Don't know. $5? I've never had to pay $50 at a restaurant.

4. Comedy Central. I used to watch it only for the Daily Show but now I watch it a lot.

5. LL Cool James.

6. Hungry Jack. I love it cuz on the bottle because it "Tells you when its hot." As if I can't tell if something's hot or not!

7. Well, the averge-intelligence one would have it easier in life. :shrug: That's why I haven't thought about having kids yet.

8. Brown. Really ugly too.

9. A cute one? Like those little ones who squeal.

11. 16? :shrug: Hell, what do I care?

12. I've only been to disneyworld.

1. I'd want a firing squad. Gary Gilmour and Eddie Slovak got firing squads -- I want a firing squad, dammit.
2. I'll go with velcro. But it's close.
3. $7.50 to $10 -- 15 to 20 percent.
4. Don't have cable. But I like Nickelodeon.
5. Gina Gershon. I like Geena Davis better, though.
6. Currently, Valu-Time (cut-rate -- this NEVER happened under Clinton, by gar).
7. Average, but social. My mom was a member of MENSA, and look how I turned out.
8. My house has 125 year old white oak floors and, with nine cats, I'd never carpet them.
9. Barney, I guess. But he'd have a muzzle.
10. Cat Stevens. I wasn't a huge fan of either of them.
11. Sixteen. Unless we're discussing my daughters, in which case Never.
12. Gotta go with Disney World -- I've never been to Disneyland. Cedar Point is better than either.
13. Burpst or Twerpst. Later, Herpeez.
14. N/A. I've already stroked Pitt's ego once this week.
15. Bert, probably. I thought it was a given that they were gay lovers.
John
