The Saturday 6-Pack

Carpe Mortem · 08-20-2022, 08:29 AM

1. Do you put any stock in astrology? If so, why?
No

2. What historical event interests you most - why? If none interest you, why?
I'm really not that much of a history buff... very left brained. I suppose the Hubble space telescope because it surely killed a couple people's faith in astrology. And paved the way for JWST.

3. You are put in charge of catering the US President, the Queen of England, and the General Secretary of China - what's your appetizer, entree, and dessert of choice?
Frown's answer was so good I refuse to entertain any other.

4. You are forced to take a bus seat next to a very old and clearly sick lady on a ventilator machine. Unfortunately, you made the poor decision to go for thirds on burritos last night and you are stricken with gas. If you don't release it, it will be quite uncomfortable for you, painful even. If you do release it, it will smell and it will definitely be heard. The bus ride is an hour long - do you let it rip or not?
Are elderly people with ventilators on buses some kind of inner city thing I'm too rural to understand? Why would I ever in my life go on a bus and why did her loved ones put her on one?

5. Pop Tarts or Toaster Strudels? If you've never had either, what's your favorite pastry?
Toaster strudels. Pop tarts are occasionally acceptable cardboard.

6. In terms of facial hair, what's most fashionable on a man these days in your opinion? Moustache? Beard? Moustache and Beard? Goatee? Soul Patch? Mutton chops? Clean shaven?
Mr. Mortem has a 1.5 foot beard and his moustache joins it somewhere halfway down. I have a clear preference.

Carpe Mortem · 08-20-2022, 09:46 AM

1. What's your current eargasm?
"Profondo Rosso" by Goblin. Every 6 months or so I get obsessed with this song again, and a coworker brought up Halloween, which I've always felt may have ripped their theme off this track a teensy bit. Classic horror soundtracks are lovely overall.

2. Are you creative? And in what types of ways?
I'm an above average doodler. I've dabbled in a lot of other things - candle making, piano playing, quiche baking, resin casting, wood burning.... none stick quite as much as what you have an existing aptitude for though. Candle making is really easy and I recommend it if anyone has almost-empty pots of store bought candles lying around. I started because the waste made me sick.

3. What is your most memorable moment from your time on MB?
I think we all did a video chat long ago. I don't remember entirely if it was this forum or another one. That was fun though.

4. Have you ever had a paranormal experience?
Questionable things happen often, but there's probably a logical explanation you or I are too stupid to understand.

5. Are you drinking enough water?
I keep a mini fridge in the bedroom stocked with water, lox, and brie cheese. We extra.

6. Do you collect? If so, what?
Yes, various types of taxidermy. Full size mounts, smaller wall hang mounts, wet specimens, straight up bones, fossils, insects & arachnids, pelts (fur & scale), teeth and claws... I love it all. My babe lair definitely has a druid necromancer vibe. I'm in love with it. Speaking of that, I worked 60 hours this week and deserve a treat....
I also half assed collect records.

1. Do you put any stock in astrology? If so, why?
No, but I like it when lesbians analyse my charts

2. What historical event interests you most - why? If none interest you, why?
Not one in particular but the Holocaust and French revolution if o have to pick
3. You are put in charge of catering the US President, the Queen of England, and the General Secretary of China - what's your appetizer, entree, and dessert of choice?
Cake, for the symbolical value, but the gross cheap dry kind, and very little of it
4. You are forced to take a bus seat next to a very old and clearly sick lady on a ventilator machine. Unfortunately, you made the poor decision to go for thirds on burritos last night and you are stricken with gas. If you don't release it, it will be quite uncomfortable for you, painful even. If you do release it, it will smell and it will definitely be heard. The bus ride is an hour long - do you let it rip or not?
If it gets painful yes
5. Pop Tarts or Toaster Strudels? If you've never had either, what's your favorite pastry?
I've had neither. Also croissant for me, a good croissant is unbeatable
6. In terms of facial hair, what's most fashionable on a man these days in your opinion? Moustache? Beard? Moustache and Beard? Goatee? Soul Patch? Mutton chops? Clean shaven?depends too much on the person but in general clean shaven

Oh absolutely. Every time I get on an inner city bus, there's always at least one decrepit lookin' geezer who appears to be near death on a ventilator. Their wrinkles are always so prounounced that you can actually see them undulate when the bus hits potholes.

I've wondered the same questions myself, so I usually ask them what the deal is, but they always give me a look of scorn and just wheeze at me like the concerns of a mere whippersnapper are beneath them - like I'm trying to steal their social security check or something.

Old people, I tell ya...

It’s something I’ve never seen in person, or maybe I’ve just not noticed. I’ll need to keep tabs on it in future

. Do you put any stock in astrology? If so, why?
I'm a Leo. Apparently, Leos don't believe in astrology.

2. What historical event interests you most - why? If none interest you, why?
Covid history will be interesting to read. Another recent event that interests me is the economic crash of 2008.

3. You are put in charge of catering the US President, the Queen of England, and the General Secretary of China - what's your appetizer, entree, and dessert of choice?

appetizer - pablum
entree - kraft dinner
dessert - pouding chômeur (chômeur means unemployed in French)

I do my best to hold it. If I can't, it's possible I'll get off the bus early in order to spare those on board. I'm not a monster!

5. Pop Tarts or Toaster Strudels? If you've never had either, what's your favorite pastry?
I haven't had either in almost thirty years. I remember pop tarts being pretty tasty back in the day. Strawberry was my flavour of choice.

6. In terms of facial hair, what's most fashionable on a man these days in your opinion? Moustache? Beard? Moustache and Beard? Goatee? Soul Patch? Mutton chops? Clean shaven?

Speaking as a man incapable of growing a beard, I'll say clean shaven. Mutton chops are reserved for Wolverine.
