I was a teen in the 80's. So you know I did.

If you were to run for political office, what's in your past that would keep you from being elected?

[Irock]

The guy I dated for five years / lived with for four (I think four?) who ended up in prison.

Ever look back at something in your past and wonder how it happened - almost feel like it happened to someone else?

[mr_j]

yeah. fall 2004-spring 2005. "what the hell was i thinking?"

um, suspenders aren't cool?

mister 'they're a staple in j's wardrobe!' joseph

[squeezle]

no so much


why suspenders? do belt's not do the trick? or are you a skinhead?

[mr_j]

i have digestive problems and was surprised when i was told that belts can trigger it. so i have a doctor's note for my fashion faux pax.


read any good books lately?

[mere1975]

No, but I plan on reading Nickel and Dimed this week, if possible. (I have to design a book jacket cover for it.)

Have you ever worked for minimum wage? If so, what'd you do?

- Mere "sold popcorn, tore tickets and cleaned the theatre lobby" 1975

[froggorino]

yep. untangled hangers for three hours a day after school M-F from 12-13 years old. sucked, but bought me lots of blue eyeliner.

[mere1975]

Leaf blower, because you feel like a GHOSTBUSTER wearing one!

Starbucks: infestation, salvation or somewhere in between?

- Mere "the thought of an iced tall soy caramel macchiato was the only thing that convinced me to leave the house this morning" 1975

[froggorino]

no you can't. and it's ridiculous and now being counteracted by the soundtrack to west side story.


EDIT: to mere: good question -- somewhere in between

or
last time you danced...

frog"your choice"gy

[mr_j]

i had a vinti caramel frappacino the other day, and it was like liquid crack.

when a coffee costs the same as two gallons of gas...wouldn't you say they're overpriced?

mr. 'crack-ho' j

[froggorino]

the only overpriced is the kind that nobody will pay.

[squeezle]

no, you are there



why is it that i can talk to my mother on the phone almost every day and be fine, but when i have to be in the same room with her i want to kill myself?
