1. What's the most stupid and/or dangerous dare you've ever accepted?
Not really a dare but a friend insisted we bike someplace in the middle of the night when we were very drunk. Only broke an arm, could've been dead at 16. 2. As far as you can remember, how many sets of neighbours have you had and what were they like? Too many to count, most were quiet. 3. What is the one thing you would NOT do for your loved one? Suicide pacts are out! 4. What new genre of music have you got into in the last few years? Got into something called "dark jazz" or "doomer jazz" during the pandemic 5. What was your favourite poster on your wall when you were young? Cronenberg's Naked Lunch 6. Name one thing you have only started doing recently? Stopped eating meat during the pandemic |

Never have. I do not seek thrills and the chicken sound has no effect on me. 2. As far as you can remember, how many sets of neighbours have you had and what were they like? We've lived here for 50 years, and in our other house before that, so maybe 8 on one side whereas on the other we've had 2. All have been decent neighbours, though our current one on the left decided to let her psycho boyfriend stay, in direct defiance of her landlady (our previous neighbour there) and so as a consequence is being kicked out tomorrow, and I won't be sorry to see her go, though I am sorry for her kids. 3. What is the one thing you would NOT do for your loved one? Help her end her life. She has asked. 4. What new genre of music have you got into in the last few years? Celtic punk! 5. What was your favourite poster on your wall when you were young? Probably one of dragons and wizards; had a lot of those. Actually this one maybe. 6. Name one thing you have only started doing recently? Drinking water regularly

I do those things without having to have someone else tell me to. I can't remember anyone daring me to do anything either. 2. As far as you can remember, how many sets of neighbors have you had and what were they like? I've lived in so many different situations, it's hard to keep count. My neighbors right now are trying to end me with beer, but they're doing it with a smile. 3. What is the one thing you would NOT do for your loved one? What ever that thing is Meatloaf said he wouldn't do. 4. What new genre of music have you got into in the last few years? lol 5. What was your favorite poster on your wall when you were young? No really a 'poster', but I had this t-shirt, and I drew the flying eye and skull on my bedroom wall. 6. Name one thing you have only started doing recently? Thinking about retirement.

1. The moment (a song, a video, an event) you knew you were out of touch with pop culture cause you've grown old. Like what The Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show would be to you if you were a Sinatra guy born in 1927, that kind of thing.
2. Have you ever met a Fall fan IRL? What was the weirdest thing about them? 3. A famous person you find unfortunate-looking. Who you think looks like dog$hit 4. Favorite soccerball player 5. If you could live for a year in a country you have never visited and don't speak the language... In other words, which country you vibe with purely based on your fantasy of what it's like 6. Favorite Trump tweet (take your pick) Last edited by jadis; 11-19-2022 at 01:48 PM. |

I guess the first time I saw an Eminem video. 2. Have you ever met a Fall fan IRL? What was the weirdest thing about them? Not that I know of. The only Fall fans I know are on here. 3. A famous person you find unfortunate-looking. Who you think looks like dog$hit I don't know. Marjorie Taylor- Greene looks pretty hateful. 4. Favorite soccerball player Only a casual fan so don't really have one. 5. If you could live for a year in a country you have never visited and don't speak the language... In other words, which country you vibe with purely based on your fantasy of what it's like The Netherlands probably though I always thought about living in France 6. Favorite Trump tweet (take your pick) Yeah, too many to choose from. Favorite moment was when he suggested bleach as a cure for covid though. |

Probably when I saw the lineup for the 1997 Reading Festival and was too underwhelmed to bother going even if I'd been given free tickets. And the lineup only seems to get worse with each passing year. 2. Have you ever met a Fall fan IRL? What was the weirdest thing about them? I know several Fall fans and they're all weird in their own different ways. 3. A famous person you find unfortunate-looking. Who you think looks like dog$hit That's a long list but this celebrity was the first one I thought of... Spoiler for Fugly Famous Person:
4. Favorite soccerball player Baseball and Hockey are the only sports I've ever gotten into. I tried to get into soccer when I was younger but it never interested me. 5. If you could live for a year in a country you have never visited and don't speak the language... In other words, which country you vibe with purely based on your fantasy of what it's like Thailand and The Philippines are both on my bucket list for an extended stay at some point in time. English is spoken fairly widely in The Philipines, though, so I'd probably have to venture deep into one of the provinces to encounter non-English speakers. 6. Favorite Trump tweet (take your pick) Like rubber soul said "too many to choose from." You never know what Trump will say next but you always know it will be outrageous. |

I recall firmly raising my eyebrows when I saw Spice Girls' "Wannabe" on MTV in 1996. That was when I decisively tuned out of broadcast media and pop culture forever. Haven't heard much of anything new since. This reminds me of a relevant excerpt from the book Retromania: Pop Culture's Addiction to Its Own Past by Simon Reynolds. On pg 201 he writes: Quote:

The time I was babysitting this lid who wanted to make a tiktok 2. Have you ever met a Fall fan IRL? What was the weirdest thing about them? Yeah a bartender in Oxford, he was cool and we bonded. He made weird little political cartoons that were cool too 3. A famous person you find unfortunate-looking. Who you think looks like dog$hit Leonardo DiCaprio and his disgusting pittbull face 4. Favorite soccerball player Vivianne Miedema! 5. If you could live for a year in a country you have never visited and don't speak the language... In other words, which country you vibe with purely based on your fantasy of what it's like Sweden. Because I grew up with Astrid Lindgren's books 6. Favorite Trump tweet (take your pick) The of tweet ending with 'sad!'. Truly a linguistic marvel
