Would you rather have the ability to fly at will, or turn invisible at will?

What game would that be? Monopoly? May I be the Shoe?
Calvinball. And no--the game must be played barefoot.

Muffin please, hold the top.
Conveniently, muffin bottoms are in the oven as we speak.

Either/or, as long as they don't alternate mid-flight.

Do you like the Cadfael series?
Doctor Who or Torchwood?
Pepsi or Coke.
Quote from: LearnedHand on October 20, 2013, 05:42:42 PM
Do you like the Cadfael series?
It's a little romanticized. I'd prefer a grittier, more realistic depiction of the period.

Doctor Who, all the way!

Are you really going to give up coffee? How will we survive?
Here's what I propose: espresso on weekends and intense withdrawal symptoms during the week. How will we survive? We'll survive because you love me :P

Do you like mushrooms?
Honestly can't stand them :embarrassed:
Quote from: JenSquid on October 20, 2013, 09:26:20 PM
Can you survive Canada's weather?
I'd take Saskatchewan weather over Chicago weather, to be honest. As cold as it gets in the winter (-40 and colder), there's very little precipitation, humidity, or wind. A good coat, toque, and gloves and I'm good to go!

I was a SNES kid but I dug Earthworm Jim

Alright then, what did you teach?
I'm an early elementary teacher, so I taught everything.
Quote from: Joules on October 20, 2013, 10:14:26 PM
P.S. The correct answer above is Star Wars. Amy might have a meltdown if you say Star Trek, I'm surprised she was even able to type it.
:laugh: You know me so well. ;D

I'm Canadian. I have to go with Dudley Do-Right.
Quote from: Amelia Pond on October 20, 2013, 10:13:54 PM
Marvel or DC?
If it's a forced choice, I'll go with Marvel, but tbh, my tastes lean to underground and offbeat comics. My favourite artist is Daniel Clowes.
Quote from: Amelia Pond on October 20, 2013, 10:13:54 PM
Ever seen Farscape? If not, you should.
Watched most of the first season and then lost track of the continuity. Thought it was underrated.
Quote from: Amelia Pond on October 20, 2013, 10:13:54 PM
Would you rather play video games or watch TV?
I do both binge-style. Scrabble and curling online for hours one week, two seasons of a TV show the next.
I'm going to come back and finish up later.
Gwynne is exhausted!
Saskatchewan? For some reason I thought you lived in Ontario. Oh well.
I was also a SNES kid. I think a big reason the Genesis is so interesting to me now is that I didn't have it as a kid. Sure, I'd play it at other people's houses, or waiting around at Sears, but I never got to dive into as deeply as I did my SNES, so now as an adult, when looking for games from that era, it's largely new and fresh to me. Makes me wonder if at 40 I'll be totally digging the TurboGrafx-16. lol. Anyway, favorite SNES game?
Have any house plants?
Favorite flower?
Coffee or tea?
Any hockey loyalties?

We're on completely the same page, here! I took every opportunity I could to dip my toe in the world of SG: store displays, friends' houses, etc. On SNES, I adored "Battletoads in Battlemaniacs" and was
quite fond of "A Link to the Past"

My son has been trying to grow some for us. They're a little underdeveloped at the moment.

I love orchids.
Quote from: JenSquid on October 26, 2013, 12:47:14 AM
Coffee or tea?
I was a tea drinker for many years, but have shifted to coffee in the last couple of years. Considering that I never added sugar to my tea and add several heaping teaspoons to my coffee, this was probably not a great move. :-\
Quote from: JenSquid on October 26, 2013, 12:47:14 AM
Any hockey loyalties?
I grew up an hour from Toronto, in the heart of Leafs Nation. It's a hard habit to kick.
What should I be for Halloween?
Choices:
Girl Scout
Black Panther

P.S. My sorority wants to do a group costume with all of us in charcoal dresses. The costume? Fifty shades of grey. NO thanks :P

I'll get back to it. I also still need to answer Joules' last question.

That's what I ended up being! I was the only one of my friend's fully clothed :P
