Death Poll

Stolen from the Weingarten Chat:

In order to remain alive, you have to give up one of the following things. Which do you choose? Darby OGill and the Little People full movie
You could never again have sexual relations of any kind with another person.
You could never listen to music of any sort. (If it was incidental to something, like a movie soundtrack, that would be allowed. But no music for music’s sake.)
You could never again use a computer (or word processor) for any reason.
You could never again watch TV, or a movie, for any reason. Should some new technology replace TV or movies, you couldn’t watch that, either.
You could never eat or drink anything you like, again. Your diet would consist entirely of water and nutritious but nearly inedible food, such as unseasoned tofu, and supplemental pills. (You could consume alcohol, but just straight alcohol and water.) In essence, the notion of “taste” would disappear.
You could never speak a word again.
You could never drink alcohol, or take any mind-altering substance again. You would have to remain completely sober for the remainder of your life.

If I were a proctologist…

I’ve been trying to stay away from memes on here, but Carter asked… So, of course I will play:

What follows is a list of different occupations. You must select at least five of them. You may add more if you like to your list before you pass it on (after you select five of the items as it was passed to you).

Of the five you selected, you are to finish each phrase with what you would do as a member of that profession. Then pass it on to three other bloggers.

Here’s that list:

Way of the Vampire movie download 1. If I could be a scientist…
Quest For Fire dvd 2. If I could be a farmer…
3. If I could be a musician…
4. If I could be a doctor…
5. If I could be a painter…
6. If I could be a gardener…
7. If I could be a missionary…
8. If I could be a chef…
9. If I could be an architect…
10. If I could be a linguist…
11. If I could be a psychologist…

12. If I could be a librarian…
13. If I could be an athlete…
14. If I could be a lawyer…
15. If I could be an innkeeper…
16. If I could be a professor…
17. If I could be a writer…
18. If I could be a backup dancer…
19. If I could be a llama-rider…

20. If I could be a bonnie pirate…
21. If I could be a midget stripper…
22. If I could be a proctologist…
23. If I could be a TV-Chat Show host…
24. If I could be an actor…
Real Genius divx 25. If I could be a judge…
26. If I could be a Jedi…
27. If I could be a mob boss…
28. If I could be an Avon Lady…
29. If I could be a store owner…
30. If I could be a high school physics teacher…
31. If I could be an ocean engineer…
32. If I could be a multi-media strategist…

If I could be a chef, I would follow in the footsteps of my evil twin and become a pastry chef.

If I could be a TV-Chat Show host, I would invite famous guests on matched to face off. They would have impromptu competitions, such as kickboxing matches, cook off, or read-a-thon.

If I could be a writer, I’d make up all kinds of gossip that my friends don’t give me now. There’d be monkeys and clowns and car chases… maybe even a drug bust or three. Oh wait, I already have that. Well, not the monkeys or clowns. I’ll keep those.

If I could be an Avon Lady Farce of the Penguins psp , I would try selling to the transvestite market. They need make-up, right?

If I could be a llama-rider, I would finally be skilled enough to have an alpaca farm! I could sell their wool and be rich! RICH!

Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation movie

“California state lawmakers proposed giving 16-year-olds a 1/2 vote and 14-year-old residents a 1/4 vote to try to encourage teenagers to be more involved in the political process and learn fractions.”

“My point is: yet again this country has been split into two factions. There are those praying and hoping that Terri stays alive long enough to go through menopause because they are caring and compassionate people. And those that have told their loved ones to unplug them at the first sign of drool. Probate lawyers are getting frantic phone calls for their services.

“Look, I’ll pay you whatever you ask, just don’t let me end up in Florida as a national wedge issue.”

LOTD — Kind of an old article, but happened across it recently… sounded very intriguing:

The Manchurian Candidate psp

Beauty and the Brainy: “In the July issue of Intelligence, the sociologists offer a theory to explain the confluence of beauty and brains. Their argument, in a nutshell: Intelligent men achieve higher status and marry beautiful women, who pass their genes on to their disproportionately attractive and smart kids, who win mates who are good-looking or brainy, and so on. Or at least that’s what they put forth in the journal article, ‘Why Beautiful People are More Intelligent.’”

Yes, and if I got caught, I wouldn’t expect to be accepted.
Yes, but it’s not a big deal. My admission status should stand.
Yes, and if I got caught, I wouldn’t deserve to attend that school anyway.
No, but I don’t think the people who did should be automatically rejected.
No, but I would want to.
No, it’s unethical and the people who did deserve what they get.

My homework

Please read the next entry (Task for the Day) before reading this one. Thanks!

Hypothesis: It’s easier to name good deeds that you’ve done than bad because most people don’t try to be mean. But when you think about mean things done to you, there are plenty of negatives out there. (Everyone’s a victim.)

My Data: IMurders divx
Standing proud:
1. Brought people cookies (Maybe that’s just me, but that’s pretty high on my list.)
2. Helped a friend move.
3. Went with my sister to help take my grandmother up to visit relatives in NJ.

Hanging my head in shame:

1. Road rage… almost every day. ;)
2. Made a mean joke at someone else’s expense.
3. Ignored/avoided people because I didn’t feel like talking to them.
4. Gossiped/Made up lies on my blog (Ok, so I’m not really ashamed of this because it entertains me. But it’s also probably not a good thing to do. So, in case there are people who didn’t know, I make stuff up.).

Shaking my fist in anger:
1. Road rage again… I’ll just leave it at that.
2. Not saying thank you or being appreciative when you’ve done them a favor.
3. Accused of something I didn’t do, without justification.

Born on the Fourth of July movie Thanks:
1. Gave me a coupon when grocery shopping.
2. Called/emailed to make sure I/my ear was feeling better.
3. Played chauffer so I could drink… even if I can’t get drunk.
The Breed ipod 4. Suggested/lent movies for me to watch so I have my netflix queue filled through the next 2 years.

Analysis:
As predicted, I found it difficult to come up with the mean things I had done. But contrary to what I expected, it was much easier to think of nice things people did for me than it was to think up mean things done to me. Most of the things I get angry about, (even road rage) aren’t really directed at me, personally. They’re general things in life and in the world that aren’t to my liking, but it’s not a personal attack that causes me to be angry.

Anyway, let me know how you did. Entertain me.

 

Task for the day:

Was discussing with TLD what a mean person he is and told him to name 3 nice things he has done so far this year. He did pretty well and came up with 4. Then I asked him to name mean things he has done and he was pretty quick to come up with one, but then got stuck after that.

Anyway, your assignment is to think of 3 nice things you have done so far this year and 4 mean/bad things you have done. Feel free to share if you want, but at the very least just humor me and play along.

Examples (of good): taking/picking someone up from the airport, helping someone move, checking on a sick friend, letting someone cut in front of you in the supermarket line.

Examples of bad: calling someone a whore, lying to get something you want at someone else’s expense, tipping poorly, cutting someone off in traffic (Even if they cut you off first… the whole “he started it” excuse didn’t work when you were little. Why should it now?).

Transamerica divx Extra credit: think of 3 mean things other people have done to you and 4 nice things other people have done for you.

One Mans Treasure film Point of this task? I’m not really sure. Kind of an experiment and kind of to make people aware of their actions if they aren’t already. Most people get by doing just what is expected and following standard societal rules, but not doing much unrequested.
Frankenstein buy
Anyway, I have a hypothesis which I will post along with my answers later. If you play along, please pay attention to which task gave you the most trouble and which was easiest. Thanks! :) -J.
