49 Dumbass Questions That I Enjoyed
Two posts in one day. The second gets a D grade from me though as really, who cares? (Me!)
- Your name spelled backwards: sixarp oruen
- Where were your parents born? 10 Downing Street. Both of them. Loooong story.
- What is the last thing you downloaded onto your computer? Smut. No, not smut. Um. My laptop is dead and my firewall in work is resistant to downloads. In the way that the pants I am wearing are resistant to flame. Flame retardant pants. For slow-mindeds who might burn themselves.
- What's your favorite restaurant? Curry
- Last time you swam in a pool? It was...in Offaly. In some hotel that left a free biscuit in my bedroom.
- Have you ever been in a school play? Have I? You bet your bottom euro I have. I wowed children and grown-ups alike in my roles as the lion in the Wizard of Oz and the narrator in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. I was so tall for my age in the latter that all the parents thought the school had hired me. Post show, my friends' parents asked me, "So, do you do this for a living?" Cue me shrugging and running off to play Mosh.

- Type of music you dislike most? Cat

- Ever prank call anybody? Hello, is that the Adams family? Yes? Can I speak to Morticia please? Hello, operator. I'd like a Big Mac and large fries please. And can I have that to go, I'm in a hurry. Hello Samaritans? I'm thinking of killing myself lol

- Bath or Shower, morning or night? Shower in morning - this is not a preference.
- Best movie you've seen in the past month? Driving Lessons, yeah!
- Favorite pizza topping? Paperclip
- Crisps or popcorn?Ahhhh, this is tough. I am the Savoury Queen. Popcorn *if* and only if it is homemade and smothered in melty butter. Otherwise, crisps every time, particularly chilli flavoured ones. Oh. Oh.
- What color lipstick do you usually wear? Sexist! I use some sort of clear stuff - Juicy Lips or something. Despite its cheap tart name it's quite dear.
- Have you ever smoked peanut shells? What?
- Have you ever been in a beauty pageant? I don't think you've seen me.
- Orange Juice or apple? God, would you be consistent with your capital letters?
- Who was the last person you went out to dinner with and where did you dine? I don't know, I wasn't paying attention. No wait! I went out to dinner with 14 relatives and we ate in a restaurant in Westport and I ate a burger that was bigger than my head.

- Ever order an article from an infomercial? I actually did once. I wish I hadn't.
- Sprite or 7-up? Whatever you're serving: I'm not rude. "Oh, sorry, no thanks kind host, I only drink the other leading brand which tastes the same and is actually made by the same company."
- Have you ever had to wear a uniform to work? Sweet Mary, yes I have. The days of waistcoats and aertex shirts with retaurant logos are far behind me, praise Allah.
- Last thing you bought at a pharmacy? Cough sweets for my boss. She embarassingly insisted on giving me money for doing this.
- Ever throw up in public? Ah yes. the fabled days of the whooping cough, when neuro puked on all things and people indiscriminately for many weeks, including her own clothes, which can be seen in many family photos. All the cousins and neuro: in her knickers with a bit of sick on the side of her mouth.
- Would you prefer being a millionaire or find true love? I believe that the former bringeth the latter. Or is it the reverse? Either way I'l take the cash - not risking a booby prize, thanks.

It was the simplest of sandwiches. White bread, good ham, a little butter. Cut into four triangles. It made me happy. I liked it so much that I made myself another one for my lunch today. It is sitting under my desk now, awaiting its munchy fate.

Posted by: wylie at June 27, 2007 09:52 PMThis is a disgrace. We are all well aware that most of these answers are blatant lies. What a shambles. This entire post is like a car that has careened off the road, struck a ditch and is now tumbling, tumbling through the air to slay the dragon.
If you can't tell, I am presently getting fairly tipsy off some Côtes-du-Rhône. Current consumption: 0.95 glasses. Truth value: painfully so.
