Inquisition: The Meme!

[chaosvizier]

It's the return of the 5 questions meme, courtesy of ajmcoqui and severus89!

Ask five questions.
Any five.
No matter how personal, private, or random.
I have to answer them honestly¹.
I have to answer them all.
In turn, you post this message in your own journal and you have to answer the questions that are asked to you. Or not.

¹Who am I kidding? I plan on lying like a rug!
...ok, not really. But I suspect that "comedic reintepretation" may color some answers. Heh.

1) What's you favorite movie of all time?
2) If aliens came down to earth and started attacking anyone in their way, would you be on the side of good or awesome?
3) If there was a story about your life, who would you have play the role of you?
4) You just stummbled onto a large sum of cash sitting on the sidewalk away from anyone walking by. What do you do?
5) What ... is your quest?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1) Although "The Wrath Of Khan" and "The Empire Strikes Back" rate very highly on my well-attuned Geek Senses, in the end my favorite movie is not that geeky: Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones rule the house in "The Fugitive".
2) "And I for one welcome our new insect overlords..." Errr... I mean, I'd be awesome. My ninja skills would defeat the aliens in mano-a-xeno combat. I might not be so good against tripods, though.
3) Gary Oldman must be me. There is no other.
4) My complete lack of moral fiber sees me a large sum of cash richer within seconds.
5) I seek the Wholly Grayle.

[ajmcoqui.livejournal.com]

Oh man, you have both of my favorite Star Trek and Star Wars movies as your own favorites...once again, I maintain that you rock.

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

You know it. There is nothing not to like about The Wrath of Khan. Ricardo Montalban, ear worms, killing, Kirk screaming, and Kirstie Allie's big boobies make it a god among sci-fi flicks. And only Empire can defeat it.

[ajmcoqui.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, I'm not sure I can agree that Empire bests Khan, but there's really no way to win the argument either way, so let's just say theyre both grrrrrreat.

Also, Gary Oldman is an excellent choice for "Hans: The Movie". I, myself, would choose Cate Blanchette as the stage Amanda, if only so I could be seen as much, much more graceful than I truly am. :) Plus I've always wished I had red hair...

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Empire and Khan are tough contenders in the ring. I could argue either way, really. As could many people.

Cate Blanchett is a good choice. And woohoo, red hair... you could always be Linday Lohan! ;)

[ajmcoqui.livejournal.com]

You take that back! That's so not cool...

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Sorry. I just had a brief vision of "Herbie And Amanda Go Cross-Country!" and... well, never mind. ;-)

Ok, back to being Galadriel for you. Which is all good. In that scene in "Fellowship" when she is tempted by the Ring and becomes a Dark Queen, she is THE HOTTEST WOMAN ON THE FACE OF THE PLANET. Yes, I'll sign up with the armies of evil if she's in charge. Oh yeah.

[ajmcoqui.livejournal.com]

"THE HOTTEST WOMAN ON THE FACE OF THE PLANET"

See, she's perfect to play me.
*snicker*

OK, I forgive you the Lindsey Lohan comment since you were thinking of a Herbie reference. I'd let that little Love Bug take me for a ride, oh yes I would.

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

See, she's perfect to play me.
Totally. No snicker needed.

NO AMANDA NOT HERBIE'S STICK SHIFT OH NNNNOOOOOOOO!!!!
*now, snicker*

[ajmcoqui.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahahaha! Nice.

[ajmcoqui.livejournal.com]

1. Would you live in Europe, given the chance? Where would you choose to call home?
2. What is the single most heinous thing you've ever done to another person?
3. What is the single best thing you've ever done for another person?
4. If you could rename yourself, what would you choose to go by? (Sorry for the bad grammar, but the technically correct phrasing is just so awkward...)
5. Is knowing *really* half the battle?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. If I had to live in Europe, I'd probably live in Switzerland. It's pretty, it's central, and it's chock full of cheese, chocolate, and hot Swiss women.
2. Oh alcohol-laden one-night-stand, you're my not-so-secret shame.
3. I saw a guy slip on the ice and fall towards a concrete and steel divider; he would have cracked his head right open, but I caught him in time. He was quite happy about not being dead and stuff.
4. Hmm. Not sure. I might want some more Z's and X's in my name, because that makes one look more cool and villainous.
5. Depends on what you know. If, for example, I know that Superman's weakness is Kryptonite, I know how to get some, I know that he's Clark Kent, and I know how to get to his lunchtime burger, I think knowing is about 90% of that battle. Usually, I think it's somewhere closer to 32%. 40% tops.

[marasca.livejournal.com]

I'm first! Woohoo!

1. What about pudding makes it so puddingtastic?
2. What's your all-time favorite movie ever and why?
3. If you could live anywhere in the world for 1 year, where would it be?
4. Here's a hippie icebreaker question from Eco-House: If you were a natural feature/phenomonon (mountain, babbeling brook, hurricaine, etc) what would you be?
5. Tell me a story (fact or fiction) that involves a pair of sneakers, an armadillo, and peanut butter. And no getting out of it on the technicality that this is a command not a question. ;)

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. It's sweet, and smooth, and can be warm or cold, and just easy to eat. Mmmm, pudding.
2. OK, I answered the movie one, so you added a new question:
When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Astronaut. Total spacehead. I was all about going on a rocket into space.
3. Hawaii would be nice- it would take about a year to really explore and experience all the trails and nature and stuff. Alternatively, Australia or New Zealand. Or Switzerland.
4. I'd be a volcano. Most of the time I'm just chillin', but every once in a while, hoo boy, it's party time!
5. It was a typical Monday morning- late. I ran out the house for my marathon practice, just barely remembering to tie my sneakers before running out. Unfortunately, I didn't quite get lunch right- somehow I packed two slices of bread and a Reeses peanut butter cup. Not ideal. I needed meat to last the run. But as luck would have it, just two miles into my workout I spot a fresh armadillo roadkill. Not too dirty, just a crushed head... the perfect meal. My Swiss Army Knife cut away a few choice sections of meat, a sink at a nearby gas station rinsed them off, and voila! A peanut butter, chocolate and armadillo tartare sandwich was mine for the eatin'!

And that, Saint Peter, is how I came to see you today. Can I come in now?

[marasca.livejournal.com]

Hahaha! Well done.

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Armadillo! It's not just for breakfast anymore!

[marasca.livejournal.com]

D'oh! You're screening comments. I'm not first. :( Also, someone else took my movie question so instead:

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

[deinemuse.livejournal.com]

1. Where do you see yourself in 7 years? (in life and you will be over 40... ha ha)
2. If you had a daughter what would you name her? (and no BS on how you won't be having kids, shit happens)
3. Did you go to your senior prom and with who?
4. If you could be any person in the world who would it be and why? (famous, dead, personal, etc.)
5. Do you really think nutella sandwiches are good?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. Over 40! Egads! I might be all decrepit and stuff! Although I think I'll still be where I am right now- I like my job, I like the area, and things are going ok. I might have travelled more- maybe take an overseas posting for a year; I'd like to have finished and submitted a book, just to say I did. Let's see what my liver has to say.
2. True, you never know. If I did have a daughter... it'd probably be an A-name, like Allison or Amanda or Alicia. I like A-names.
3. Yes I did, with Rebecca Wallace.
4. I'd want to be any of the people who have travelled into space. Especially any of the guys who walked on the moon, like Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. That must have been the most awesome shit in the history of awesome shit.
5. Yes I do. Good for me, probably not. But good and tasty, oh yes.

[deinemuse.livejournal.com]

Scary huh... Allison is a nice name. Was Rebecca related to William?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

"You git mah daughterr back beforre one, or mah Claymorre willa be havin' worrds with yer neck, laddie!"

[deinemuse.livejournal.com]

What is with the screened posts?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Posts were screened because I was retarded. I'm better now. Heh.

[the-wanlorn.livejournal.com]

1. Why pudding? Fuck! Some stupid fucker down there already asked this! Um... Which is better: the meat roasted over the fire or the marshmallows roasted over the coals?
2. Have you ever seen real live jello wrestling?
3. Superman or Batman?
4. If you had a frillion dollars, what would be the first thing you would buy?
5. What's your favorite colour?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. Hmm, that's a tough one. I'll have to go with the meat, as marshmallows are one of the few sugary delicacies that I'm not extremely keen on. Although I do like them when they've caught on fire and gotten all burnt and stuff.
2. Not yet. But there's still time.
3. Batman is cooler by far. Although I still believe that if the two of them really fought for keeps, Superman would win.
4. Probably a very large house. Huge, even. Massively hugely large house.
5. Blue. No, yelloooooooooowwwwwwww... *thump*

[the-wanlorn.livejournal.com]

Ha! I've seen real live jello wrestling with [fairly] hot girls! *pwns you because apparently that is every male's dream. I'm not sure why cuz it looked sticky and gross. But whatever.*

[lovellama.livejournal.com]

Goodness, This entry exploded since I began thinking about what to ask... K!

1. Which is the best Fandom: Star Trek, Star Wars, or StarGate?

2. Have you ever played Xeen?

3. There is no pudding left in the world. What other dessert would you have, or would you go dessert-less?

4. What old country is your family from?

5. Hmm. My color question was taken. So. Do you have an odd kick to your gallop?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. Oooh, that's a tough one. Although I am a die-hard Star Wars fan, and I like to think of myself as an old-school Trekkie, I must say that Stargaters are more subtle. Or at least, I haven't seen as many people with a Gou'ald stamp on their forehead as I've seen Vulcan ears and Jedi robes.
2. I've played every Might and Magic game from 1 to 5. I loved the World Of Xeen combo. Whatsisname asking "Pleasant dreams?" in that evil robot voice every so often was completely creepy.
3. It would have to be chocolate mousse. Unless one considers that a pudding, in which case, Key Lime Pie.
4. Father: Germany. Mother: Tanzania.
5. Well, I did walk funny after I dislocated my knee...

[lovellama.livejournal.com]

Go to the Stargate con in NJ/NY in August. THey're out there... Oh yes, they're out there... :D

Squeee!! I <3 Xeen too. The user interface was simplistic, but I don't care for all those 3D games. :P I'm old school. I just wished it could run with the current Windows...

Dude, you have to try the Key Lime Pie 'martini' then.

1.5 oz Stoli Vanilla Vodka
.5 oz Licor 43
.75 oz Daily's Margarita Mix
.25 oz Half & Half

Combine all in a shaker filled with ice. Strain into a martini glass in which the rim has been dipped into a mix of crushed vanilla wafers, butter, and brown sugar. Serves one.

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Stargate con? Frightening thought... "I am Anubis! I am the one true god!"

I miss the Xeen games. Or rather, that style, handed down to us from the glory days of Wizardry 1-4 and Ultima and Bards Tale and what not. Not that I don't mind 3D action, but there's something to be said for the old school.

Hmm, Key Lime Pie martini? Sounds like a plan for this weekend!

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. Let me check... *taking a few seconds to get to the end of the ole' Johnson here* Ah, there we go. Yup, snip-snip seems to have occurred.
2. Let me check... *looking in chest cavity, sees burnt cinder pulsating evilly* Yeah, looks like that's affirmative too.
3. You should probably ask about what kind of boobies I'm most attracted to. This will give me the opportunity to reply "The ones within reach of my hands and mouth."
4. Not as much as I miss Ray Charles.
5. Penny Arcade, Something Positive, Sluggy Freelance, Dinosaur Comics, PVP, The Order Of The Stick, and Goats. There are probably other good ones out there that I haven't read, so if they're good, it's up to them to show some initiative and invite me over.

[lovellama.livejournal.com]

Circumcised or not?

Good question, good question... ::claps in a cheesey 'Family Feud' kinda way:: :D

[perkyczarlet.livejournal.com]

What house pet would you bite first?
If you were the leader of the world, what sort would you be - president, king, supreme god?
Do you miss your foreskin?
If you had to give up your ridiculous number of weeks of vacation completely, but you could get all your books published, would you do it?
Silent treatment or screaming fight?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. The one that bit me first. I only bite in self defense. Or sex, but that would definitely not involve house pets in any way.
2. Supreme God. I'd be good, but I wouldn't want any mamby-pamby Congressmen or Noble houses hampering my style. They'll just slow me down!
3. Having never been conscious of it beforehand, I can't say what I'd be doing different with it. Except maybe some desmegification.
4. Oooh, that's rough. I think I would do it. If lucky enough, I could make enough money off of the books and then write for a living, which comes with a decent vacation plan as is.
5. You mean, what do I give, or what do I prefer to receive? Giving, I'll admit it, I'm totally silent treatment. Getting, eh, whatever.

[psychoticspy.livejournal.com]

1. You can only wear one colour of sock for the rest of your life. White, grey and black are not colours. What do you choose?

2. Like Captain Jack Sparrow, you have a gun with only one bullet. Who is the recipient?

3. What do you want to be reincarnated as?

4. You're in London, walking past Buckingham Palace. A bulter grabs you, and informs you that you'll be cooking the banquet for the Worlds leaders tonight. Do you get Fight Club in the food?

5. What are you prepared to do, to get to pudding?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. Looks like Navy Blue is in fashion for my lifetime.
2. Thanatos, because if I kill him, I get his powers, and that's cool.
3. A male lion. The life of a male lion involves leading a pride of other lions, including several female lions, with whom you have lots of hot lion sex. Then the female lions go off and hunt and bring you food, which you eat the best parts of. Also, you get to beat the shit out of other male lions who try to muscle into your territory, as well as killing baby lions produced when your female lions got it on with some other male lion. If that isn't the life, I don't know what is.
4. No way. Well, okay, maybe I'll put my Man Meat in any vegetarian platters, just to be a dick.
5. There is no telling what I might do for some good quality pudding. Bring it on.

Just 5? I have so MANY questions for you...

[dv8dragonfly.livejournal.com]

1. What is it about your job that initially drew you to it? What keeps you there now?
2. What is the strangest thing you have ever done to impress someone you were interested in?
3. How did you get into going to cons?
4. You've got a week to do whatever your heart desires, money and distance being no object. What do you do?
5. What on earth made you add me to your friends list?

Re: Just 5? I have so MANY questions for you...

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

1. Well, at the time, I figured, "Hmm, I like languages, I'm going for a linguistics degree, and the UN is about as language-heavy as you can possibly get; let's try there!" So I got lucky, got a temp job, and voila. Now I stay because I love the job, the pay and benefits are good, and I get six weeks of paid vacation a year, which makes Ang and most of my other friends VERY ANGRY.
2. Stuttered a lot and said "I think you're purty". Actually, that's pretty much the only thing I do.
3. Always liked gaming, and one year I was going to take a vacation in Switzerland, but it didn't pan out, so I said "Hey, that's Origins week, maybe that would be fun." And it was. Very much so.
4. I think one can travel to and from the moon in under a week. I'd do that. If we're limited to Earthbound pursuits, I wouldn't mind rafting the Grand Canyon or visiting Australia.
5. I can't remember. Maybe it was after you posted my Rules Of Sidewalk Etiquette on the DC community. That was nice of you.
