The Saturday 6-Pack

Burning Down · 03-10-2012, 12:55 PM

1. If you could have dinner with anyone of your choice, who would it be?

I have no idea really...

2. What is one album that you cannot live without?

I think I've said this before, but R.E.M.'s Automatic for the People.

3. What was the last concert that you went to?

Wow, it's been so long... R.E.M. back in 2010, I think.

4. Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert?

Not really... At first I can be quite shy, but on the whole I'm pretty extroverted. At least my Myers-Briggs score says so

5. What is your pet peeve?

The biggest on is when people get on the elevator, streetcar, subway, bus, (etc, etc) before I've had the chance to get off. Fucking hell, people. Another one is when they all crowd around the exit so I CAN'T hop off...

6. Do you believe in any afterlife? If so, what do you believe (or hope) it's like?

I'm on the fence about this issue. On one hand, I don't believe in any sort of paranormal activity and I think all those shows that deal with the topic are fake (shows like Ghost Hunters International and such). On the other hand, there could still be the possibility of Heaven or Hell or some kind of Underworld...

Hell yeah. That drives me crazy.

I remember watching the original Ghost Hunters awhile back. Good times. I was there for the first season and everything. There would be a whole row of episodes where they found absolutely nothing. I guess that was boring? Because nowadays it seems they find at least 3 things an episode and "bizarre" things constantly happen at every location. Very interesting!

I just find it all really farfetched.

1. If you could have dinner with anyone of your choice, who would it be?

I would like to dine and have a discussion with Aldous Huxley, but from living people I would pick David Lynch, he's an interesting character.

2. What is one album that you cannot live without?

Life without Trout Mask Replica would be like life without air.

3. What was the last concert that you went to?

Dweezil Zappa in Zappa Plays Zappa on Valentine's Day.

4. Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert?

I'm mostly an introvert, but when I'm with friends or acquaintances, I'm quite the extrovert.

5. What is your pet peeve?

I rly h8 it wen ppl hav rly bad grammerz.

6. Do you believe in any afterlife? If so, what do you believe (or hope) it's like?

I despise the ******* that came up with this question. I like to believe in an afterlife, because if I'm wrong, then who cares, I'll be dead and won't need to worry. I just hope that it's pleasant if there is one.

1. If you could have dinner with anyone of your choice, who would it be?
Emma Watson. I'd probably write her a song and woo her with it, then we could have an in depth conversation about Madlib and J Dilla, and finally, make sweet harry potter love.

2. What is one album that you cannot live without?
As of right now, Cosmogramma- Flying Lotus

3. What was the last concert that you went to?
Schoolboy Q at the Varsity Theatre

4. Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert?
I'm pretty introverted.

5. What is your pet peeve?
Most republicans and anyone who considers themselves conservative.

6. Do you believe in any afterlife? If so, what do you believe (or hope) it's like?

I do not believe in an afterlife, but if there is one, it's probably a dope-ass city that has a lot of trees an nature and shit everywhere and it stays 65 degrees all year round except when I want it to snow or be colder or something. It would have the nicest recording studio and would be fully stocked with every instrument ever made (that way I could spend all eternity mastering EVERYTHING). Also there would be a fat stock of super fast cars and bikes and segways (cause why not?), and hella guns. There would also be a zombie apocalypse mode so could I have some fun blasting away zombies and BOW's and just shooting stuff in general and blowing shit up. Of course there would be a marijuana forest where you could get rainbow weed and ride on unicorns and dragons probably. Also there would be a lazy river that takes you wherever you wanna go if you don't wanna take the Bugatti. Also also victoria's secret models would be everywhere all the time, but Emma watson (or angelina Jolie) would be my main bitch so i wouldn't give a fuck.

I know I'm missing a lot of stuff but that's the general idea.

1. If you could have dinner with anyone of your choice, who would it be?
- Either Milla Jovovich (for predominately aesthetic reasons) or Vince McMahon. Followed by Trey Anastasio.

2. What is one album that you cannot live without?
- Right now, Kid A not being present in my life would be tragic. Overall, though, I'd hate a world where I couldn't listen to Eric Dolphy's Out To Lunch whenever I pleased.

3. What was the last concert that you went to?
- A crazy house concert with a few punk bands from somewhere in the northeast whose names I've forgotten because I was very drunk.

4. Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert?
- Introverted, 100%. I don't see that as being synonymous with shy, though, as a lot of people seem to assume. I see it more as processing information internally and taking things in, as opposed to pushing everything out.

5. What is your pet peeve?
- This may sound assholeish of me, but I hate it when people send me things they've written and want me to proofread with no warning at all. Like, if they do it once or twice, it's fine. But if it's the people who send me every single college paper or whatever that they've ever written...and ask me to proofread and correct it for them before they turn it in...that gets on my last nerve. I'm too nice generally to decline, though, so I imagine they're taking advantage of that.

6. Do you believe in any afterlife? If so, what do you believe (or hope) it's like?
- I don't know and am kind of on the fence about the whole thing...although if there happened to be an afterlife, I'd like it to be filled with things and people I love, and a lot like the real world, only better.

Oh I don't blame you. The older ones were far less cinematic than they are now. I remember one episode where they "investigated" one of the guy's friend's apartment. They heard knocking and footsteps... well he lived in an apartment building. They saw a figure outside their window, and it even knocked on the glass! Yeah, it was an actual person. Oh it was bad. The other case in that episode went the same kind of way. Lots and lots of nothing. I liked it that way though.

It's certainly good for mindless television!

Isn't a wondrous thing?! You even have an avatar as homage to it! I wouldn't go that far, but it is pretty damn great.
