The Saturday 6-Pack

Plankton · 08-09-2022, 07:09 AM

1. What's one thing that has become popular in music (say last 20 years) that instantly turns you off? Any genre...

Whiney, nasally vocals.

2. You get to choose a direct sequel to any game, book, movie, or album that never received one - it will be made by its original creator in their prime and will be bestowed on the world. What do you choose?

Pragmatic Philosophy: An Anthology, the Sequel!

3. You are suddenly transported into the past - you open your eyes to see Jesus being frogmarched to his crucifixion - your are among the crowd - what do you do?

I'd probably google 'frogmarched'.

4. You are charged with removing one food item from existence - you have to choose only one - but the catch is that after you make your choice, everyone in the world will be given your name, picture, and address and made aware that you were the one responsible - what food item do you choose?

Sugar. You're all ****ing welcome.

5. Have you ever come close to death? If so, what's the closest you've come? Experiences of others coming close to death near you also count.

Quite a few times. I was younger and stupider for a lot longer than most people. I did witness a tragic death when I was in the service though. A Chief Warrant Officer with only a few weeks left until retirement was running a forklift with us enlisted workers just to show he could hang, and while heading back up range, he didn't pay attention to where he was going and ran the forklift into a ditch. He tried jumping out but the forklift crushed him, killing him instantly.

6. What was your favorite cereal as a kid? If you never ate cereal, what was your favorite breakfast as kid?

Boo Berry

My friend loves Boo Berry. We can only get it in the US. He says the recipe has changed. It's not nearly as good as it used to be (used to be = 30 years ago).

Probably because of all the sugar.

Lol, most likely. One weekend, we decided to shop in the States. We hit a grocery store. He bought a dozen boxes of cereal in all - Frankenberry, Count chocula, Boo berry, Capn' crunch (think it was a berry flavour). We hit the clothing outlets too. We get to Canadian customs, and the agent wants to see the trunk of the car. I open it, and he takes a look. He gave me my duty ticket, and said "see you captain". Prior to opening the trunk, he didn't believe us that we could buy that much cereal.

I used to like Quisp too, because of the little wacky dude with the beanie. Marketing at it's peak.

I don't know this cereal. It looks like a sweeter version of Rice krispies.

Plankton · 08-09-2022, 09:59 AM

Something like that. Reminds me of this:

Yeah, that's a fitting comic strip.

I'm confused to what date we are up to so to catch up for the 13th:

1. What's your current eargasm?
2. Are you creative? And in what types of ways?
3. What is your most memorable moment from your time on MB?
4. Have you ever had a paranormal experience?
5. Are you drinking enough water?
6. Do you collect? If so, what?
