QOTD: i'm probably only going to ask maybe one or two more questions

question of the day: what are you doing/being for halloween?

4 state killing spree

fence builder

Doing: my girlfriend
Being: a stud

i'm gonna be a drunk, drunk

i'm dressing up like [coworker]

The loser at a strip poker game. All it takes is a barrel or a cardboard box.

i am doing/being nothing for halloween becasue i am a boring turd with no life. i might get drunk, so i could be a wino for halloween.

either a girl scout or a boxer. i don't have the sash - so i'd have to make it OR i could just buy boxing gloves and myself some trouble.

I'm going to a wedding. Lame, I know. I was thinking about getting a Halloween themed tie though. Corny, I know.

Sorry, not my cup of tea..

QOTD: personality profile

question of the day: what is your worst personality trait?

flatulence

anger issues/impatience.

well - i think its my best and my worst - i'm extremely opinionated and passionate - so i tend to really get worked up over a lot of topics. oh yeah - and i think the other one is that i'm pretty darn lazy

laziness, i lack patience, and sometimes i think i'm pyscho

what's this, a freakin interview!? I think I'm a perfectionist, and I spend too much time on my work... blah blah blah. Just kidding, I am perfect, flawless in every way!

perfectionist

As perceived by others...... I don't have much of a filter. I pretty much say what I'm thinking. When I win an argument, I let it known that I won... repeatedly.

I'm impatient, which leads to frustration and anger, my other 2 bad personality traits.

A bit compulsive on the organization side. When things don’t go according to plan I get very, very annoyed.

I am too nice

QOTD: even better would be a question about zombie clones

question of the day: if you cloned yourself and then killed the clone, is that murder or suicide?

LOL!!! Murder.because you have to kill youreself, the one that mad ethe decision for it to be suicide. the clone didn't know you were going to kill it so it's murder. the clone didn't decide to die. i decided to kill the clone.

murder. because killing a separate entity is murder. doy.

Murd*r I guess…or M*rder…hard to say ;)

i think it would be a murder suicide. because you killed yourself but yourself was another person..

murder clearly

why would i want to kill the clone? having two of me around would be awesoem

Neither, a clone isn't a real person. It would be the equivalent of killing a desk lamp.

You need to take it easy on the brownies my friend. If the clone is a conscience being, then I would say it is murder. If the clone was harvested to give me good organs to replace my bad ones, then it is suicide. Too intense for a Monday morning.. I haven't even woken up yet.

murd*r

QOTD: flogging a dead horse

question of the day: do you think that if george w. bush never became president, the terrorist attacks on 9/11 would have happened regardless? why or why not?

I don’t believe they would have happened... http://st911.org/

oh of course - they had that long planned out - things with the terrorists would be the same no matter who was in office - at least up until that point - however, hatred has mounted since bush being in office by him going into Iraq with really no just cause except for finish up what his daddy didn't finish -so we are all more vulnerable and unsafe because Bush is in office. hey - i didn't vote for him - don't blame me.

I could tell you my answer, but then I'd have to fly a plane into your stomach.

yes. the planning of 9/11 has been going on for years before george w come on board. i think his repsonse since then has been terrible though. and it will ultimately lead to a wide spread american hatred and another grand attack.

probably, because everyone hates us. regardless of the idiot that runs our country.

I think they would have happened no matter who was president. These people hate our whole way of life. A different president isn't going to change that. Many more people hate us now than before 9/11/01. That is Bush's fault.

Yes, it was a previous target, and the govenment was (and still is) a mess of over-paid under-performing dopes with no accountabilty.

No idea.

QOTD: choices

question of the day: if you could have only one, what would you pick between books, music, or beer, and why?

books. books=brains=success=money=women

i'd have to say beer - books can be boring, music can suck - but beer is always good!

Music. Can't live without the tunes

Am I stranded on a desert island? Do I have food and water? Am I blind? Am I deaf? There's too many unknown variables for me to decide this

music.... i love all types of music... you can write books or use the imagination/music to transport you to places.

AAAHH, what a conundrum! Ok, I know I could do without music. I love beer and I love to read. I read every day, but I don’t drink beer every day so I guess I could do without the beer. However, I would never, ever, ever want this to happen!

music....beer makes me pee and I can't read

its a hard decision between music and books. but for me personally, i pick music...because music is moving, entertainment, and an expression of art. but for society as a whole...if i had to pick one...i pick books because book represents knowledge, growth, and prosperity which (i believe) to be greater than art. [i realize i've expanded the answer to more than you've asked].

Your question has incongruity. Book and beer are physical, music is not physical.
Between literature, music and food. I would choose music - 'coz I can generate it. Literature, I do not think I can generate on my own, same with food.
If you'd asked Books, CD's and Beer then Books. I can read by myself, CD's I need power and Beer - I don't drink!

I wanna choose TV

Well, I don't read at all, so books wouldn't be my choice. Plus they have these new things called "movies" that tell the same stories as books, but instead of using written words, they use spoken words and images (2 hours vs. a week or more). There are many alternatives to beer, in terms of being able to feel a different way, not that I use any of them (proven by [company]), but if I wanted to, I could. There's really nothing out there that can replace music.

Though I want to pick beer, I have to go with books. Nothing's better than the written word and whereas that's hokey, I have always been and will continue the biggest fan of the Guttenberg printing press. So those of you who think beer is best, I can't wait to see you on an episode of Cops...

BEER, because I'm an alcoholic.

beer.....You wouldn't care about books and music if you had enough beer

books, because when i read i dont need anything else to occupy my attention, but when im just listening to music i need to be doing something else. and beer...i could never have another drop and be fine...however if you said another type of booze, i might've answered differently.

I can definitely live without books. Too many words. Any book that can not be compressed into a comic book sized brochure with appropriate pictures is not needed and should be promptly discarded. So that leaves beer or music. That is tough. Since I have gone 30 days without alcohol (I hope my Dr. dies of colon cancer) and I am still alive (barely), so I would have to say music. Playing music gives me a safer stress relief (although I am not as good as playing guitar as I am at drinkin..). And I never heard of anyone making any money sitting at a bar, unless they were in a band of some sort..

uh beer. this is a dumb question. i can remember plenty of stories, so who needs books. and the more drunk i get, the funnier the stories are. i also can hummmmm to myself numerous songs, so who needs music. plus, in case you didn't know, my musical abilities get SOOOO much better when i drinks, so i can make my own music baby!!!

QOTD: best show ever

question of the day: what has been the best concert you've been to and what made it so great?

Rage Against The Machine, The Wetlands, 1992, good Lord.

i'd have to say madonna this past summer because i have been a lifetime fan and i was able to get third row seats and they were amazing!

motorhead/dio/iron maiden. i was drunk and got to see ronny james dio. definitely a great day. we almost got arrested a few times. i stepped in human feces

John Mayer/Sheryl Crow was awesome because we had really close seats.... but the Everclear/Matchbox 20 concert was equally as awesome. Tied.

new kids on the block. they sang my favorite song. You Got It (The Right Stuff)

It's tough to decide between Air Supply and Kool and the Gang. Air Supply had more hits, but Kool and the Gang had a much more energetic crowd.

311...becuase they kick ass

Bon Jovi-Giants Stadium, July 2001. A beautiful summer night, not too hot, not too cold. I was newly single after being dumped by my boyfriend of 5 years. Went to the concert with a friend from work and an old friend came down to visit who I hadn’t seen in 4 years. We had plenty of beer and such to enjoy the evening. It was just a fantastic time all around. They played a great set, I was just drunk enough without being too sloppy. It was one of those nights that I didn’t have high expectations for and it ended up being amazing.

The best concert that I ever went to was my second Lollapalooza. It was at Randall's Island in NY, I think it was in 1996. Snoop Dogg, Korn and Tool were the headliners. During Tool, I crowd-surfed to the front and got dumped over the front fence, and ended up right in front of the stage. The stadium is outdoors, so the ground is all dirt and during Korn, there was a crazy mosh pit in the dirt. I saw an interview on MTV with Korn later that week and the band members themselves said it was the best show on the tour. They gave us props for moshing in the dirt cloud.

Grateful Dead, probably because I don't remember it all. LIVE is a good concert too, I do remember those though.

the flaming lips. you can't beat fake blood, confetti, and people in rabbit suits in the audience. also probably the loudest concert i've ever been to.

Out of the 40 or 50 bands I've seen live, I think it would have to be the Dave Mathews concert back in 98 (or 99..). It was my first arena concert and at my favorite stadium, the Vet (80k screaming fans).. Dave was at the plateau of his career (I would say) and had Santana open up for him. Santana had just released his Supernatural album, which for that moment still had not gained popularity. As a result, we got into the stadium w/out a huge line, as very few were trying to jump on the band wagon for our Spanish rock god. My bro was still with his first wife, pregnant, and I was pretty much a newly wed myself. I think it was the only time those ladies were collectively nice to us in public, so that made the event even better.
Second was BB King, just a couple of months ago down in Trenton. BB is the man..

Phish 8/9/98. Terrapin encore, Jerry's b-day. Amazing energy.

QOTD: the worst

question of the day: besides something physical (like dying or a heart attack), what is the worst thing that could happen to you right now?

crap my pants at work, or my bf (or other family members) dying in a car accident. thats usually a reoccurring nightmare.

Stay at [company]

my car could get stolen again

I am living. It's called working at [company]

diarrhea

you dont even want to know....

My good buddy from work moving across the country.

My internet connection going down

Losing my job. Then I wouldn’t be able to afford my house and I’d have to live in a van down by the river.

a couple things could be really bad. 1. dying of boredom, 2. not getting into ANY good grad schools, 3. being childless at 30

Being arrested for a crime that I didn't commit, losing my job, my home and my girlfriend. Wait.... that's the plot to"Trading Places". That Jamie Lee Curtis sure had some nice ones, right?

i could stay at my current job

worst thing would be if i stepped on one of the P's

The worst? I'm living it. My neighbor is the stupidest stupidest woman on the face of the planet and WON"T LEAVE ME ALONE, and the Dr said I can no longer drink!! Can't drink!! He might as well have told me that I need to live in an iron lung, or that I have penial cancer..

You Can't Not Laugh at the End of Every Sentence Day!

Yours is a serious job and the things that people need to tell you are not to be taken lightly.
Last week, one of the employees told you that he was an alcoholic and needed to check himself
into rehab. You said "that shouldn't be a problem...ha ha ha!"

That night, as the employee laid awake, thinking about how you laughed at his problems, he
decided to take 26 sleeping pills, so that he wouldn't have to be subjected to your insensitive
ridicule any longer.

The next day, your boss asked if you knew anything about the bizarre events. You said "he asked to check into an alcohol rehabilitation center, but I didn't think he was going to off
himself...ha ha ha!" Your boss isn't laughing. He isn't even cracking a smile. All he can do
is wonder what is wrong with you and why you don't take things seriously. He thinks that you
have a tank of laughing gas in your top drawer. There is no other explanation.

Today, one of the employees is going to ask for your help because he feels a murderous rage
building up inside him. Better let your boss handle this one.

Happy You Can't Not Laugh at the End of Every Sentence Day!

QOTD: love or money

question of the day: if you had to choose between being incredibly rich and unloved, or having a wonderful loving relationship and not rich, what would you choose and why?

I'm already Rich.

most definitely a wonderful loving relationship and poor - without love, life is truly empty

Why not be where i am now, but with more money? Besides, the most hated minority in this country is the wealthy.

already got the second and its a good life. Can always try to make more money.

depends on how good the loving was

rich and unloved....i hate everyone already so give me some money!!!!!!!!!

Common, I can buy anything w/ money... including love. For instance, I'll donate a few millions to a charity and everyone involved with the charity would love me. So, yea, i'd rather be rich.

contrary to the jokes i make about needing A LOT of bling in life...i'd rather take the loving relationship and not be rich. both love and money are a priority in my life...BUT i'd give love the #1 position.

the latter, because im in that situation right now and its pretty sweet.

I'd rather be rich and unloved. Love just causes headaches, while owning your own yacht only causes a big smile at all times. It is my dream to be rich and not have someone nagging me at all times. Sign me up!

Money, material things - a jedi craves not these things.

Why can't I have my cake and eat it too? This is the land of opportunity where anything is possible. If I want to be poor and unloved, then I should have that option. Why can't I come home to a one room apt and 5 children after 16 hours of grueling minimarket cashier work to only be unappreciated and scorned by the woman of my dreams and mother of my 5 various raced children?

I’ll take the loving relationship and poor any day of the week. Biggie said it best, mo money, mo problems.

Always love. I can live with an empty belly, but the same isn't true of the heart.

QOTD: waste

question of the day: what is your favourite way of wasting time?

probably watching tv - i can sit there for hours and pass an entire day happily

depends where i am, here's its bbc and at home its tv.

Playing the guitar and video games.

coming here to work

uh, i dont waste time. i do like to sleep though

I forget. It's been a while since I've had any time to waste. I guess I'd have to say TV/movies since I can do that and watch the baby at the same time.

I like to go outside a pick up rocks that look like people. Then I bring them inside, name them, and dress them up as if they are going on the TV show Survivor. I also like to drive around and set fire to people’s wicker-porch furniture.

Surfing the gossip sites on the web.

My favorite waste of time is going to work, where I generally slip in 25 minutes late, read some emails, stare at the wall of my cube for about 45 minutes, take a coffee break, as my manager a stupid question of which I already know the question to, answer a few emails, visit the other department for about an hour (there is a Russian girl over there), take 1-2 hour lunch, come back and surf the internet, check my voicemails, stare at the wall of my cubicle for another 45 minutes, re-organize my desk (sometimes I like my picture frame "Space For Rent" on the left side of my keyboard and sometimes I like it on my right), water my plants and tell them how nice they look today, forward all the FW: emails that are sent to me (not forgetting to forward them back to the original sender just to annoy them), take an afternoon break, send out a memo or place a job related order, call up some vendors and yell at them for missing a deadline, go back to the other department to harass the Russian girl (I love Russian women), email my manager with a project update, surf the internet and go home.

sleeping, doing weird dances in the house, smoking, talking to the dogs.

this....this has got to be it....

Watching TV. Of course, it is a bit educational. The pointers in those crime shows will come in handy once my serial-killing spree starts.

QOTD: coffee

question of the day: what would you do if coffee was banned?

not care. I don't drink coffee.

drink tea

drink tea

drink more tea

be even more bored at work

start drinking tea i guess? either that or just stick to soda - that would suck though. i love coffee

Same thing I do now. I don't drink coffee. It is a crutch for the weak-willed.

i don't drink coffee so i couldn't care less...In fact, they SHOULD ban it!

i'd be an coffee bean lord.underground international bean dealer. yeah, that's what i'd do

Put on my best poncho and flee to South America.

drink tea. fight with the caffeinated revolution to get coffee back.

The same thing I do everyday Pinky...try to take over the world.

I don't drink coffee. I'd definitely try to make money off of the situation--either by participating in the smuggling operations; or by investing in companies that make other addictive products.

I would start chewing beetle nut... That is until that is banned too.. Is that even legal in this country?

First, I would have to ask why.
Second, I would not accept any reason that was given.
Third, I would rally the masses to rectify the situation.
Fourth, if the situation didn’t correct itself I would enjoy the world of tea and get all puffy-chested when anyone mentions coffee.

Sleep

I would probably turn to a life of crime and start looting remaining Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks. Maybe start up a new underground coffee speakeasy and sell you fools my stolen coffee at a premium and call myself The Sauce Father. Or I'll just start smoking Crack as my replacement.

QOTD: choose your own adventure

question of the day: what movie that doesn’t exist would you like to see made?

i want the ramayan (hindu epic poem) done lord of the rings style ASAP. there's a kingdom, fighting, demons, morality, etc...it would be AMAZING.

You little snake in the grass, you'd like that wouldn't you? For me to tell you all about my million dollar movie ideas, so that you can steal them. You almost had me there...almost.

The sequel to Snakes on a Plane - - Taranchulas on a Subway.

[coworker] takes a vacation and actually leaves his house...Can call it Weekend At Tubbies. or Weekend AWAY FROM Tubbies

gobots vs transformers

the movie of my dating life. i think it would be hysterical. i have dated the wackiest, weirdest, nuttiest, craziest people available. Would be the comedy of the year. Although, it may not end well... hmph.

The Life and Times of [coworker]

There have been a few Dean Koontz books that I thought would make good movies. Odd Thomas was one of them. I can't think of any other specific ones off the top of my head. Koontz doesn't have the clout of Stephen King though.

The sex tape of lindsey lohan and me, duh!

Cat’s Cradle (Kurt Vonnegut).

family guy the movie

QOTD: love is blind

question of the day: ever been on a blind date? How did it go? Would you ever go on one?

i've never been and never had a need to

nope. i would only go on a blind date if i was really desperate, but i dont have friends that would set one up, and my parents don't get involved in my sex life, so i seriously doubt i'll ever have the opportunity to go on one.

She kept bumping into the walls

There was this one time...long story short, Dateline NBC showed up.

I went on a blind date and married him

Yes I have been on one.
I ended up dating him for 5 years.
It did not work out though.

yes. I have been....Was a friend's wife's co-worker......did not go well..

yup, my aunt set me up with her coworkers son. it was fine. the guy was cool and now we're friends.

I've never been on a blind date, but I think I could be convinced to go on one, if I trusted the person who was setting me up.

Never been on one. Never dated one. Would I go? Sure. Why not. I'm game. Your not trying to set me up are you? Just know this. All I request is to see a copy of her blood work before I agree to go anywhere with her. I don't need any objects flying at me during dinner..

It was ok. Dinner and a Movie--"That Thing You Do!". Nothing really could come of it because she lived 5 hours away. Geographically inconvenient. Plus, she'd probably never be with me anyway-- probably thought I was a total loser.

QOTD: no soup for you

question of the day: what is your opinion on soup?

Yay for soup!

Soup? I like it like I like my women. A little thick.

love it. hate when the choices for soup of the day are cream-based fish vs cream-based gross veggie. fish soup is gross. also, gezpacho is not soup. gezpacho is cold crap.

I eat it

soup is great. its a great dish as a starter to a meal. makes you feel good...reminds you of childhood (like grilled cheese and tomato soup). its pretty universal...and seasonal. my opinion on soup is quite favorable

Love it. Especially in cold weather. And it is easy to cook. Just throw everything in the pot and walk away.

It gets me all wet.

i love soup - if i could eat soup every single day i would

love it

soup is good...especially from the soup nazi

soup is good when you are sick or the temperature outside is colder than 70 degrees. no need to sweat when you eat.

Love it, soup has always been good to me. My favorite has to be Cream of Potato with bacon, cheese and chives.

soup is great, a single can will fill you up and is quite nutritious. Only about 150 calories. Get the low salt variety if you can. Also, stays in the cupboard a long while.

I always choose it over salad. It's like having cereal before your dinner. Who wouldn't want that?

um um good

It’s man’s lifeblood (next to beer). And for those of you who enjoy it as much as I do, I only have 3 words for you...Lesbian Soup Kitchen (LSK). Do yourself a favor and seek this local establishment out. Or better yet, don’t. The less people that know about this joint means more of the world’s best soup for me. So forget I even said anything.

soup is good. particularly chowda.
