C'mon, you know you want to.

HEY! GENERAL!

What's something about you that you rarely share with others?

What music do you listen to when you're happy/sad?

If you could instantly acquire one skill, what would you choose?

I have a bad habit of biting my fingernails. I have mostly stopped, but it has transformed into an obsession with keeping my nails clipped down way too far. Bad, I know.

Cajungal said:

Typical song I like to listen to when I am happy:

Something cheery and simple

Typical song I like to listen to when I am sad:

Something beautiful, slow, and powerfully moving

Typical song I like to listen to when I am feeling silly:

Brilliant people not taking themselves seriously at all.

Typical song I like to listen to when I am angry:

Ponderous and brutal

Cajungal said:

Hmm, I keep thinking up abilities I'd like to have, like being able to decipher any language. Skill... I think painting. Seems to be relaxing unless you're the Jackson Pollock type. But it'd be fun. I could stay home all day, paint for a little while when inspiration strikes, then go back to whatever.

Have you tried "Route 55" on Hwy 6? The burgers there are pretty great.

I have not. I live in West Columbia now, so don't venture into Lexington much anymore.

In that case I recommend the little bistro in the strip mall beside Time Warner. They are most excellent.

Next to the building that used to be where I worked until the company (NCR) fired all of my friends and I quit? Yeah, have 8 years of bad memories associated with that place and so don't like to go near it.

Ideal pizza toppings?

Jan 13, 2013#9

Pepperoni, Italian sausage (spicier the better), black olives. Simple, efficient, clean.

Do you prefer canines or felines for household non-sentient companionship?

Jan 13, 2013#13

Canines. Though I do not yet have one. I need a fence around my yard before dill616 and I get a doggie.

I can't wait to have a big, hairy beast to call my own. Oh, and I want a doggie, too.[DOUBLEPOST=1358104846][/DOUBLEPOST]Also....hypothetically speaking...if someone were to ask something...eh, a question involving something shiny....then when might this event occur? :rolleyes:

Sometime this year, you know I can't tell you.

No, you want a Reuben sandwich.

Who promoted you to General?
If you're a General, and based on typical households, does that mean dill's a Field Marshall?
Did you put in 4 videos, all of them not available in my country, specifically to torment me?
None, one, two, three, more, or stienmannian amounts of children?

Chicken fingers, of course I have the benefit of having already eaten supper by this point.

Bubble181 said:

I was appointed the position by the President of Bricelandia, Matt the Great. He's pretty cool.

Bubble181 said:

No, that would be fraternization amongst the troops and illegal. But sooo sexy

Bubble181 said:

No, but it is a bonus.

If it helps, they are:
1st - Gordon Lightfoot, Cotton Jenny
2nd - Sigur Ros, Ara Batur
3rd - Queen, I'm Going Slightly Mad
4th - Metallica, Welcome Home (Sanitarium)

Bubble181 said:

None, until dill616 and I can figure out how to have a negative amount of children.

While thinking of a nonsense question about if something like admiral vague was your enemy I just now got the joke about your name.

For how long do I need to hang my head in shame?

Generally speaking, how specific are you when picking out a tie?

Well, we're having a giant slab of marinated beef tonight and YOU WILL EAT IT AND LIKE IT!

NONE OF THE BABIES!! :megusta:

...unless you want to house them in your fictional uterus for 10 months of pain, body mutilation and torture only to then have said children ripped out of your imaginary vagina where you are then forced to run after, bathe, feed, and care for such little minions for the rest of your days.

I've raised plenty of other people's children for them- enough to know that it's nice the theory, but I like to go home and have money as well as lots of sexy times with [user]General Specific[/user]. We'll be cool auntie and uncle. Deal? Deal. CONSENSUS REACHED!

What's your zombie plan? And how will you implement it without children (i.e. bait)?

Very, considering I hate the damn things.

I did like it. Very much.

Motion carries.

I've never been one to go against the odds. Most people wind up as zombie chow in those movies, so I pretty much assume that's what will happen to me.

After all; I'm fat, lazy, and go well with salsa.

The typical gestation period for humans is 38-42 weeks, which is 10 lunar months. I have two godchildren and was able to get all of the fabulous details from my best friend. Her first pregnancy was NOT fun. I learned enough to know that (even if I could) I would never EVER do go through that.
