ztupid_questions Flowers from Safeway This is a continuation of ztupid_question. The ztupid_question of the day is: How would you take advantage of having a third arm? 030709 ... The Spork Its utility depends on where on the body it was situated. 030709 ... endless desire im really not sure because the spork has a good point when he says that it depends where it was located. i must say though, it would be very helpful in giving hugs or holding someone. also when doing the dishes. i know a lot of places i wouldnt want to have that extra hand located though. 030709 ... shorlove ...like a tongue. 030709 ... karl the weed i have a sick idea... have you ever seen that poster where it says "internet porn! the art of one handed typing!"? lol 030709 ... ferret oh my, that would make for an awkward hug. 030709 ... karl the weed an informercial... sick of having to hold the porn with one hand? well not anymore! 030709 ... Flowers from Safeway I guess I should have been more clear on location. If it came out of your ankle, for instance, it wouldn't be all that useful. Except maybe for hacky sack. Anyway... I know the guys from the rock band "the Presidents," best known for "Lump." (coincidentally, I also met the actual President. Weird.) Do you know any famous people? 030710 ... sixteen you know them?? wowee, I was a big fan in fourth grade (seriously)...uh....tell that guy...you know...that one....I say hi...haha ive never knwon anyone famous. but Joel from Good Charlotte used to email me when they were working there way up. (heard them when they were first on any radio station and posted on their website. since they werent famous, joel had plenty of time to write back n forth with me. hes a really nice guy...) 030710 ... sixteen they're way up* please excuse my horrible grammar. im quite drunk. but by the way. Im fully serious about being big fans of the presidents of the united states of america, I was obsessed when I was a young'un and can still recite all the lyrics from that fun cd. 030710 ... shorlove third arm for; carrying a flag during sexual intercourse, a tail to express feelings, or just use it to fill any hole you like! 030710 ... minnesota_chris to control the mouse while typing! Drive and talk on the cell phone. 030710 ... Flowers from Safeway I once met a girl whose real name was Mossyrock. What is the strangest name you have ever heard? 030711 ... angry j. christina. 030711 ... endless desire there was a boy in my health class in 7th grade named eric shin. say it nice and fast. ericshin. hmmm yeah, even the teacher made fun of him for that one. poor guy. 030711 ... karl the weed yama. that guy was a retard. 030711 ... sixteen nagme. pronounced nag me. hmmm. 030711 ... Flowers from Safeway There's a book of mis-heard song lyrics. It's called "Scuse Me While I Kiss This Guy." The first time I heard All-star by Smashmouth, I thought that in the opening verse he said "and the shit of an elk on her forehead." It turned out, of course, to be "the shape of an L..." Sometimes I marvel at my ztoopidishness. So today's question is: Have you ever mis-heard song lyrics? (preferably in a humorous manner) 030712 ... jane to completely avoid the question..i just want to say i heard of that book like five years ago. in case anyone cares 030712 ... delial heh, that song "bad moon rising' or 'bad moon' or 'bad moon on the rise', or something like that.. I always thought it said 'there's a bathroom on the right' I was 8 or 9 at the time then i was singing it one time in the car and my mom started laughing and explained my error. it DOES sound like he's saying bathroom, though! 030712 ... karl the weed well, unrelated... i used to think that placebo was pronounced place bo (correctly pronounced pla cee bo) 030712 ... Flowers from Safeway My birthday is tomorrow. What will you all get me? Virtual presents are cool, it really is the thought that counts. :) 030713 ... endless desire happy_birthday_safeway i am the queen of mishearing lyrics. though, i can't think of any specific examples right because it is pass my bed time. 030713 ... karl the weed what else? id get you flowers from safeway. actully, safeway is closed right now, so you may have to settle for Flowers From the 24 Hour Mini Mart. 030713 ...

I have a few Elvis collector plates,but not the whole series. Anyone who saw the amount of lipstick/lipgloss I have would think that's a collection too. :D I don't know what happens when you die. It's sort of a frusterating thing to think about really,because we won't know until we die. The third letter of my last name is N. 030716 ... karl the weed O 030716 ... Flowers from Safeway What is the clumsiest thing you have ever done? 030717 ... ferret i think i stabbed my dad with a screwdriver once :) 030717 ... Flowers from Safeway What would you do with a time machine? 030718 ... duh wear it around my wrist and call it a watch 030718 ... carlita go back in time and do a lot of things differently! 030718 ... ferret if you believe that there is only one timeline that we follow, and therefore probably no alternate universes/timelines then if you went back in time, you either wouldn't be able to as the universe would realize that you didn't belong there, or if you believe in The_Truth's my_bubble_wrap_polyvers_theory, then everything around you would probably be frozen in time and you would just be living one instant as opposed the the entire past but if you believe in mulitple paralelle universes then you could conseivably go back in time and change things, now, that doesn't mean that if you then went back to one second after you left from your original time anything would be different as the timeline you changed things in would reject the future you were going to as you might have caused the demise of somone who would later work on your time machine, BUT, if you stayed in the timeline that you changed and let it play out until it was the same time as you left, then a couple of things might happen, A: X would happen, B: the two timelines would merge, (as you are in both at the same time, although they might not as you might be in a different place or any number of variables), or C: nothing would happen and you would be able to live in which ever timeline you wanted, you could stay in the one you changed things in, or you could go back to your own. and about ageing, that's a discussion for another time as for me, i would go back to when soda's were really cheap and really good and buy a bunch 030718 ... ferret oops my_bubble_wrap_polyverse_theory 030718 ... Flowers from Safeway What do you like best about blather? 030719 ... karl the weed oooh.... lemme see... i like how its a little community, and its not completely infested with idiots, and i dont know everyone on here personally, so i can post anything. 030719 ... endless desire ok, time to play catch-up. . . i don't really collect anything, but i am the craziest pack rat you've ever seen. i just can never bring myself to throw anything away. it's pathetic. after we die? heaven. i hope. i guess i believe more now than before but it is more for my own sake. i need to. i wish i could just die and get it over with instead of letting the idea consume me. but i guess that is ridiculous. why be so worried over something i cannot control? it depends what last name. v or a. clumsiest thing i have ever done is grab a guy's balls during a game of mafia. i was sitting with my head down when someone took my sunglasses off my head. i reached back to get them and instead of grabbing the sunglasses i grabbed this other guy's crotch behind me. he was this insanely shy, quite guy and i have never lived it down. so many people won't even stand behind me anymore. i just laugh. if i could go back in time, i would have closed the conversation box. or never had the conversation in the first place. my favourite thing about blather is the way i choose to view it. it has been explained to me and i have come to the conclusion, that it is a world made by people who don't quite fit into the one we are living in. . .almost as though they chose to make a new one. that fits so well with the defiance in me. i guess i just feel understood and fearless in the blather world. what a gift. 030719 ... erect monkey i like that newdream.net sends you money for blathing.

(that strikes me as kind of sad. I dwell in the past too much, I guess) 030722 ... karl the weed i hate it when people ask questions like this. dammit, umm... i know its horrible, but wouldnt it be interesting to meet hitler? i mean, bad, but even so, he had to have been really smart, he wasnt crazy. 030722 ... ashmanzhou everyone insideth one person: so i could (concievably) kill them at once 030722 ... ashmanzhou but most off all the one who created fuzzy logic Dr. Lotfi Zadeh...you goin down! 030722 ...

Flowers from Safeway Courtesy of misstree: What do you think is the most romantic murder weapon?

I just performed at a summer camp for kids with cancer, and I can't stop thinking about the little darlings. 030821 ... karl the weed is very tired my grandpa, may he rest in peace 030821 ... oldephebe god i've got to seriously catch up on these questions, most people say i look like my pop, and i guess that's true - um without my glasses i get all kinds of comparisons - ahg! who cares - umm most romantic murder weapon? um really couldn't say..and again I'll be over here.. hey endless, yeah i was wondering where you got to.. blah awkward construction it's good to be back in the big blue... ok questions i am so far from ever being caught up at this point - worst job? hmm something to do with a shovel and a pig farm - several of my aunts died from uterine cancer - ah one my friends pops died of liver cancer, long and drawn out - was there a question about doing number one in the woods? um well i guess if there was like no one around say w/in a few hundred yards or so - i'm really really up tight..so i've only blathered under oldephebe, and quite frankly isn't that enough? there's a few reams of prattle i'd love to excise out of big blue (my prattle) yep later, ... 030821 ... User24 I dreamed about someone I knew who had cancer. She died when she was about 18, she had to wear a wig, she got married 4 weeks before she died, I didn't really know her very well. It's odd that she popped into my dream for no real reason. 030821 ... User24 Who have people said I look like: Thom Yorke, apparently. 030821 ... oldephebe um about my aunts dying from uterine cancer, as well as (on both sides of my family) my college roomates and sometime business partners' aunt dying from it as well - umm I hope I don't alienate the other guys if i say that with each death I began to notice that they occurred at certain critical juncutres in the maturing womans life - there were seriously unfullfilled acts of creation in at least three, middle class women rlegated to a life of playing hostess and nurturer and no time left for herself, also the onset of of cancer coincided with the on set of menapause - a third repeating factor was the death of a cherished parent - wich the favorite or favorite daughter was seleceted or pushed into the role of caregiver - um I'm a little embarrassed and I don't want to go into it any deeper but ah I've spent thousands of hours talking to some of my close friends who happen to be women/girls at the time - and ah besides being a big fan of a womans wiles I've tried to in my own stumbling way, larn from some of the things people have shared with me - for you women what I'm saying is like Dr. Suess land, yeah I know - um but I just wanted to share a little, this is what i was talking about when I mentioned to a fellow blatherskite? that part of a man strenghth comes from knowing when to be strong, knowing when to take a more gentle posture, understanding comes from closing your mouth sometimes, and stemming the flow of testosterone, and begin to learn to empathize as best a guy can, with his mate, listen, learn, read a pamplet, talk to your sisters, get your mind off of self for once - part of a mans strength resides in his capacity to find out or intuit what role he needs to play or be to be the best mate for his woman - sorry for the digression -it may seem choppy because I'm cutting a lot out - later 030821 ... Flowers from Safeway Thank you for sharing that with us, oldphebe. Have you ever had a supernatural experience? 030822 ... delial ghosts psychic dreams + gut feelings yeah.. my life's sort of been riddled with supernatural things. 030822 ... misstree as far as cancer, yes, three of five of the women in my mother's generation did, and all survived... i didn't know much about it, or see much of them while it was being treated... one of those was my mother, who was diagnosed with cervical cancer when i was in new orleans... i feel terrible, because i was so engrossed in my own struggle for Life that i wasn't able to be there for her in her much more literal one... but she has always lived a relatively healthy life, and after the hell of chemo treatments and a histerectomy, she is healthier than she ever has been, and i am veryveryveryvery grateful (my mother is quite an incredible woman). ahem. as far as supernatural phenomenon, well, if you're talking about ghosts, i was told that i was concieved in a haunted house (my father, a strict atheist, swears to this as well), and have had various minor and not horribly concrete or exciting run-ins with various sorts of spirits quite a few times... some more concrete than others, some that still make me look over my shoulder nervously. psychic flashes, well, a skeptic's mind is very tough on defining these, but i can certainly say yes to at least some. and magic? darling, i'm a chaos mage, and no one comes to that without being seriously skeptical first, and between what i've seen and what i've done i can answer a resounding oh boy have i ever. with a side of guilty/sly grin. 030822 ... phil yes. 030822 ... ferret why yes, all the time. i honestly think my house is haunted by a dead cat. i ALWAYS see a cat moving around out of the corner of my eye, the same damn cat! over and over again! and sometimes i think i see a man standing near my door too. kinda scary when that happens 030823 ... ferret it's about an hour after i first posted that one and i just had a new one. there was a red circle on the wall next to my door for a sec... it could have been blood but it didn't quite look like it. it reminded me of a dream i had once with this weird dead guy's head sticking out of the wall, and there were all these bugs crawling all over his face, and he was eating them and they were coming out of his ears. yeah, it was weird. 030823 ... Flowers from Safeway How have you changed in the past year? Has blather had an influence? 030823 ... endless desire i've known quite a few people with cancer, but only two people who have died from it. i've never actually had a "supernatural" experience, but i used to pretend everything was haunted when i was little. i used to love being afraid. changed this last year? i feel like i've changed more in this last year than i have in the other 14 combined. and to go into it would bore you and take up a lot of time. and yes, blather has affected much of it. . .or at least the last 4 months ago. good question, safeway. 030823 ... Flowers from Safeway What is the longest you have gone without eating? 030824 ... karl yes i have, a lot. im nicer, happier, more mature, smarter. psh. like 10 hours. im a wimp when it comes to hunger i eat all the time but im not fat thank god. 030824 ... ferret you're a little tubby ;) yes, i have changed in the last year, yes, blather has influenced it. a day or so. or no wait! there was this one time in vegas that i was feeling defiant so i didn't eat for 2 days, needless to say, i was a little hungry 030824 ... endless desire that's such an. . . ironic question. i just broke my 4 day streak with a wonderful in_n_out burger. but it truly wasn't worth it (the burger, that is). now comes and guilt. . . but even more determination for next time, i suppose. i keep doing better and better. and i don't even mind anymore. it's funny. . .the things you get used to. 030824 ... Flowers from Safeway Who is currently your favorite band? 030825 ... phil You know that is always a hard question. Some imaginary band that doesn't play any music. 030825 ... delial magnetic_fields 030825 ... karl the weed yes good question. man i love so many bands, but i would have to say either deftones or linkin park 030825 ... oldephebe endless you have to eat or you'll expire and that would be a very bad thing just trying to be anoymously avuncular -please stop hurting yourself like that maybe i'm wrong - don't know the entire context - maybe you've got an iron constitution but as you've probably heard many people say please be careful later - i hope i'm not being perceived as being too intrusive - but i have a sister who ah goes through marathon gauntlets of not eating, and it just totally wastes her - so you know please be careful *oldephebe sighs, looks regretfully at what he's typed, hoists eyebrows in a kind of of ambivalence - and then thinks maybe he ought to go to the gateless gate, clean out the bramble, see through the illusion of his own bias and experience and allow others to walk the path they must* ... 030825 ... sixteen the faint 030825 ... Flowers from Safeway Have you ever been in a police car? 030826 ... ferret i have a memory of being in one, but i don't think i ever have, i can't tell if they're memories or dreams or what but it's not a memory of fear or anticipation or anything so blah! 030826 ... misstree heh. yeah, nothing too special, but i got arrested for driving on a suspended license at the butt-crack of dawn by a really nice cop who ignored the huge bag of weed on the seat next to me. less than a week later i got a $25 ticket for posession in an unrelated incident. DON"T DRIVE, and while you're at it, try to not be so stupid about smoking pot. 030826 ... voodoo once my boyfriend at the time decided to peel out of a parking lot onto a side street. the street was wet, so we made a ton of noise and almost hit a couple parked cars. and having our shitty luck, there was a cop a block away and watched the whole thing. so we get pulled over, and it's the biggest asshole cop in town. always looking to bust teens for drugs. well, that he did. my stupid boyfriend said ok when he asked to search the vehicle, which gave him the right to also search me. we both got possession of marijuana tickets, and they put us in the back of two different squad cars, handcuffed, while they searched his truck for another 20 minutes trying to find more. driven to the jail, booked, finger-printed, mug-shots and the whole works. then they put us in these two separate cells. the cop first comes to mine and asks me if i want to tell him where i get my pot. i refused, and he badgered me for a good 15 minutes. then i had to wait for them to interrogate him, and finally let him go. the first thing we did when we got back to the truck... went to a friend's house and got high... 030826 ... endless desire oldephebe--you weren't out of place. but i'm not one who can be told what is right or wrong. i have to learn for myself or i'll never learn at all. but i think most people are like that. favourite band. . . hmm, jars of clay third eye blind jimmy eat world matchbox 20. maybe more maybe less. that's just how it is now. always changing. i've been inside of a police car. . .but i was probably 7 and they brought one to my school for us to look in it. also, my uncle is a police man. . .or was, than he became a fireman and then a lawyer. now he's a judge. i went in his a couple of times once. 030826 ... shivers i've been in a police car once... it wasnt exactly the best experience. they drove me to a hospital an hour away. i guess wut pissed me off the most was that half way there one of the cops went on a cell phone and said "lets stop at the good rib place after, im hungry" i wonder if the person on the other line could hear me crying in the background 030826 ... Flowers from Safeway What color are your eyes? 030827 ... nomme in no_good order cancer: yes :( police: car no,... supernatural experience: yes my whole life worst occupation: executioner or dictator romantic murder weapon: too scary.. i'd say love, but that's prolly just sick of me..twisted i_say! fave band right_now: not_sure i_have one.. maybe i_do..yeah there's this hip irish trad band i figure nobody_here has heard of, i_love them longest without eating: not sure actually, about a week? does juice count? older younger: yes mostly older when i was younger, physically speaking...but my voice has been mistaken on the phone as younger now that i'm older.. hospitaliztion: sorta how have i changed in the past year, has blather had an influence: ohh this one is really tough grrr hrrmm emmmm i emmm hmmmm yeah i'm different but the same and of course blather has had an influence,... blather_inspiration blather_magic . i have learned, i am learning, i've unlearned eye colour: green in the sunlight blue in the shade resemblance: myself, my mom's mom's mom ( must be the mtdna ) this girl back in elementary school, my slightly younger cousin on my dad's side of the fam, my dad, my dad's mom when she was my age, oh and those other two i always get but you can find them in my facts anyway multiple blather names: just look for all the poorly written stuff by someone going on and on and on and on, that's me mon! no big mystery 030827 ... misstree hazel, mostly green with gold, blue, grey, and brown. i currently have teal tinted contacts with make the color of my eyes less varied, but also just a little bit more intense than eyeballs normally get to be. they also keep my eyes from betraying my mood--people know to run when they go grey. 030827 ... delial brown 030827 ... oldephebe uh yeah i was in a cops car once in 7th grade, i had skipped track practise to go to genuardi's in ah pennsburgor hanover township - not sure but anyway my godbrother had stolen apair of sneakers, i tried to talk him out of it, i wilted under peer pressure - the other guy that was with us did the smart thing and just took off when he found out what was really goin down - umm a store detective noticed my inept attempt to what take a candy bar - and hauled us both into the magr office, the cops were called we were made to sit in the township constables car - until my mom came - pretty scary - okay - my eyes are brown - i think they're hazel in the sun, at least some girls have said so - and ah - yeah being redundant again - ... 030827 ... oldephebe longest i went without food was 4 days, but it wasn't any kind of fasting thing - 'bout three or four years back -every one went away for the holidays - my ah physical situation required that i remain home that year - i ah had nothing in the house but juices and milk - my ah symptoms didn't ameliorate until 4 days later enabling me to go shopping - i am an extremely proud and stubborn person so i just weathered the storm and learned somethings about myself - tested my limits - and like endless said after a while you don't even notice it - and then when you do eat you feel all guilt - soemtimes i still fast but it's only for a day or two now - i once loat 70lbs by eating one small meal a day and drinking milk and juice - it's very effective - ... 030827 ... endless desire it's very effective. . .i'm proud to say i've lost exactly 10lbs now. well, 11 when i wake up, 10 when i go to bed. though i treated myself to a sandwhich today. . .it surprises me how happy and energetic my body feels afterwards. my eyes are hazel. they have more brown or green in them depending on where i am or what i'm wearing. 030827 ... karl the weed my eyes are sort of a light green but i have green contact lenses (prescription) and they make my eyes REALLY green 030827 ... Flowers from Safeway What celebrities would you like to see disappear? 030828 ... endless desire vin diesel. XXX yeah. and that's all i have to say about that. 030828 ... Punk this Ashton Kutcher Hilary Duff Ashton Kutcher Yes, he deserves to be listed twice. 030828 ... Flowers from Safeway Have you ever been fired? 030829 ... misstree hee hee hee... got fired for sexual harassment by IHOP on new year's eve... i had requested off two months earlier, but, well, this is a college town, so they had next to no waitrons, so they said no... worked my other gig at the bar first, had just enough time to get pretty plastered between jobs... at midnight there was nobody in the restraunt and i was outside with a server and the security guard, bitching that i was missing a great party, and that every new year's eve found me at least partially naked. they suggested that i could flash them, so i did (and lemmie tell ya, when you're drunk and wearing that fucking apron and the white shirt tucked into your pants, it's not easy. worked the rest of my shift, felt like hell around 2am (booze wearing off, hangover setting in), and at 8am after 10 hours of work, the bitch manager (the other one didn't care) called me into the office and fired me for "sexual harassment." i didn't argue; two jobs was killing me anyway, and my hours just got upped over at the bar. so. yes, i have been fired, and i'm damn proud. :) 030829 ... e____d well i'd have to have a job to get fired from one 030829 ... oldephebe wow gee, how i changed in the last year, well i learned about betrayal - my heretofore best friend, business partner preyed upon my honest open heart and pretty much pissed on a long friendship and a pretty good business partnership to excavate a fleeting advantage - can't really go into it here but let's just say i'm a lot wiser, for it - um i think i'm a little more patient, empathic, um - i realize that the world of business is not for me and that i pretty much need to get another band together, get into the studio and try to leave my dream - or go broke at least trying - it's the only thing that at this point in my life will sing to sleep those taunting voices - later ... 030829 ... Flowers from Safeway Have you ever fainted? 030830 ... oldephebe nah 030830 ... mon yes 030830 ... misstree almost, a few times, various reasons, including bridal party standing, heat exhaustion, oxygen deprivation, roller coasters, and dehydration. don't think any of those were quite enough to put me under, but they were damn close. 030830 ... delial Yes. I was standing at a counter waiting for a purchase to be rung up. I could feel dizziness coming on, so I left the person I was with standing there, mumbling that I needed to sit down, and quickened my pace trying to reach a bench to sit at. I got about halfway across the distance between where I had been and my goal, when my vision was covered in squares of darkness. I was told that I fell very gracefully. It didn't even hurt smashing into the checkered linolium. There was some great sense of relief after fainting. The part that bothered me most was the woman from the jewelry store running over with water, a worried expression on her face, asking if I needed anything. And then the security guard coming over after she had run off to find him, and he asking if I needed an ambulance. I should have eaten breakfast that day. After that incident, I became a hermit. I was too terrified of fainting in public again, and large buildings like that one I had been in when it happened began to scare me. After a year or two of never leaving my house, though, I willed myself to snap out of it. But that's_another_story. 030830 ... endless desire i've never fainted before. i used to play games with my cousins where we tried to push on each others chests or something until they fainted. it worked with my brother but i just got a very bruised chest and light headed. i've only been close a couple times. twice because of asthma and once backpacking. it's extreme stuff. 030830 ... Flowers from Safeway Do you want to be buried or cremated? (or other) And why? 030831 ... sixteen cremated-- its just easier, and I don't want to think of my body rotting and taking up space under the ground somewhere. 030831 ... angelita burnt to cinders, munched by maggots ... ech, decisions, decisions. I did once have my mind set upon being cremated; the whole concept of decaying in a box horrified me. now, though, I'm not sure. maybe have my ashes scattered over ground where saplings are planted? could I be more disney? 030831 ... neesh. my uncle was telling me he went to a humanitarian funeral, and he says it was one of the best things he's ever been to. he's not a morbid man by any means, he was just awed by the concepts and procedures of it. he said that's what he'd like done to him when he died. my brother, who is a humanitarian, said, "what, be buried in a cardboard box and everything?" he said, "yeah, why not, it's not like i'd know". that way you would truly return to the earth, become nutrients for plants, be part of nature's cycle. i'd like that. 030831 ... misstree if i had to be buried, i think a cardboard box would be the only way i wouldn't come back and haunt some asses. i have made it very clear all my life that i want to be cremated; it's a physical release of the energy that makes me me, so that the trees can breathe me and the plants can eat me. i've also specified that there are about 5 people that get portions of my ashes, which they will each know what to do with, which for most involves consuming them, but one or two dislike the idea and they're to bury me beneath a tree, as my parents are. physical manifestation of the spiritual process of the Big Reshuffling, don't ya know. 030831 ... mon buried like dinosaur_bones like an ancient_roman ice_mummy 030831 ... mon or a grave in a tree or a high rocky peak where birds can find me or tossed into the ocean or something else my first answer is the one i'll probably go with 030831 ... endless desire eh, i'd answer this one, but as i've told you all many times before, i'm never going to die, so, luckily, i don't have to worry about this one. i'm very content with my way of thinking, so please, don't try and set me "straight." :) 030831 ... misstree hooray for foma. *grin* 030831 ... shivers buried or maybe cremated with some sort of plaque... my mom went to visit two of her brothers who died when they were infants... i guess its just the thought that if she couldnt find them shed still be torn over it 030831 ...
