Day Early, Dollar Extra: October Investigations (Noobs, jump in)

Choose your weapon.

Penguins or Ostriches?

You are the hero of the story, you have just broken into the office of the baddie in their castle at the top of a mountain*, messed up their computer and entire empire, you have the chip you need to save the world if you can get it back to base… ….how do you escape?

Fill in the blank: As happy as a ____________________

Ice cream or pie?

Would you try walking over hot coals if given the opportunity?

Is this weird yet?

Supplies are short, rationing is in effect. You just entered the convenience store/corner shop when all hell breaks loose and looters crash in. What do you grab? Closest to you are bread, toilet paper, cheese, bleach and canned mushrooms. What do you do?

Do you like to have your hair washed by somebody else?

Am I forgiven?

What is the furthest place (physical distance-wise) you have ever been from where you were born?

What is the best pill ever invented?

When did you last buy gas/petrol?


*Surrounding terrain of your choosing

Choose your weapon. Penguins or Ostriches? I initially read these as one question, so I choose to answer it that way: ostriches would make a way better army than penguins.

You are the hero of the story, you have just broken into the office of the baddie in their castle at the top of a mountain*, messed up their computer and entire empire, you have the chip you need to save the world if you can get it back to base… ….how do you escape? Climb out quietly the way I came in. No need to make a scene.

Fill in the blank: As happy as a ____________________ Clam.

Ice cream or pie? Ice cream.

Would you try walking over hot coals if given the opportunity? In a controlled environment where I watched someone else do it first... probably.

Is this weird yet? Nah.

Supplies are short, rationing is in effect. You just entered the convenience store/corner shop when all hell breaks loose and looters crash in. What do you grab? Closest to you are bread, toilet paper, cheese, bleach and canned mushrooms. What do you do? In a chaotic situation, I'm not grabbing shit, I'm getting out of there. People are crazy and I don't need to die for some stupid groceries. In a long-term shortage situation, I'd hoard spices. Valuable to everyone, shelf-stable, and take up relatively little space. I could trade for what I needed.

Do you like to have your hair washed by somebody else? I don't mind it conceptually. The sinks at the hairdressers hurt my neck, though.

Am I forgiven? Blessed be.

What is the furthest place (physical distance-wise) you have ever been from where you were born? London.

What is the best pill ever invented? Meh. Parameters are too broad. Saving most lives? Penicillin. Most dramatic effect that can't be achieved with any other form of treatment? Schizophrenia meds. General life improvement for the most people? Birth control.

When did you last buy gas/petrol? Monday night.

I like the way you think, girl.

If you needed a quick grab for a blunt instrument-type assault, a Penguin might be more manipulable...?

What is the best pill ever invented? Placebo. It's the only pill ever invented that doesn't have an intrinsic potential for adverse side effects.

Do you like to have your hair washed by somebody else? Well sometimes, back in the day, when I was a younger and fit and attractive and available dude, the ladies at the Hair Cuttery would bend over and basically put their chest in my face. I was a big tipper. Now, though, it would just be sad.

Despite not having any daughters, I am not much attracted to ladies who would be my theoretical daughter's age. I feel like, if they were attracted to me, it would mean they were damaged goods. If you are young and hot, go find someone else young and hot, and do young and hot things together. That is the way of the world.

if they tape it I might watch though


What is the furthest place (physical distance-wise) you have ever been from where you were born? Scarborough

When did you last buy gas/petrol? In May. LOLOLOL
