The question game

blissed · 16-01-07 00:19:18

Ah you missed your chance now. The correct answer is Fish fingers peas and tomato sauce. loose 3 points and go back a space.

What is your specialist subject, the one you know the most about?

I am an award winnig hasenfeffer chef and historian.

If you could meet an historic figure from the past for 5 minutes and ask them one question, who would you want to meet and what would you ask them?

blissed · 16-01-07 14:29:00

Good question!
I'd go back to July 1888 and meet Alois Schickelgruber Hitler.
I'd say for the rest of July, the whole of August and a bit of September, I would like you to be my guest to travel the whole of England to study the border controls and then write a report containing your advice. He wouldn't be able to bring his wife but he would get £8 million for doing his survey which is nothing compared to the billions of pounds and millions of lives his son cost, who obviously, as Alois is in England doing my survey, now won't even be conceived let alone born. Big problem solved!!!

So now world war 2 has been avoided, that's a fairly big change, how differently do you think things turned out?

Thats the strange thing about humanity. If it was'nt Hitler, it would have been someone else that caused the events of WW2.

Number three is going to happen, but as Einstein said:

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.

Humanity needs to change.

If you could control the weather, what would be the perfect conditions and where would put it?

hmm I'd make it sunny everyday up until 1 in the morning then I would make it rain and thunderstorms until 8am and I'd put it in Melbourne.

Where would you love to live (anywhere in the world) if it were viable?

Arielle · 17-01-07 03:33:35

Ooh, tough call, its between San Cristobal (-in Chiapas, Mexico) and Prague. Im sure I look like a total art student saying that.

what's the worst name given to a child you've ever heard?

aven frey · 17-01-07 03:46:45

You and I Arielle, we should get married we have so much in common!!
My middle name is starshine, that's pretty bad but not as bad as Apple.

Can I re do this question because I don't want to hog up this thread.

blissed · 17-01-07 04:07:26

Starshine is cute, the worst name I've ever heard for a person is, and my Apollogies go to http://www.jlara.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/R … tyard.html

because he is a real person in my town

whats the best place to be right now?

Six feet under the ground.

(Sorry, I don't know where that outburst of existential gloom came from, but my therapist tells me I just need to let it all out.)

Do you hate beaches as much as I do? (Careful. This is a trick question.)

jwhite · 17-01-07 05:35:14

No, but i'm not so fond of sons of beaches (or Barbara Hershey's lips or Bette Midler, for that matter).

Pepperoni or sausage (sorry, vegans)?

Arielle · 17-01-07 07:34:14

Max and your starshine middle name I would love to marry you.

Sausage, but only at a pinch. I'm actually a big fan of vegetarian sausages, though not a vegetarian myself.

Its your birthday and I'm cooking you your favourite dishes. What are they?

Cate · 17-01-07 07:37:10

Orange Poppyseed Cake

The person below has a funny story involving an orange or two

Whoops wrong thread
question if you had to make up an amusing story about an orange to impress someone what would it involve

I know someone who can peel oranges in his pocket. I can as well!!! I used to work somewhere where a guy had the snip and it got infected and his balls swelled up the size of oranges while he was at work and he had to be taken off site in a wheelchair because he couldn't walk along :) Ha ha everyone thought it was really funny cuz it wasn't happening to us :)

I can't make up a story about oranges because I must immerse my mind in oranginess, and I haven't been able to do that today.

Small or large dumplings?

Reading that post again I think I should immerse my mind in some sort of theraputic medication, but never mind :)

Whats the bestest name for a baby?

Calenture · 18-01-07 17:15:33

Thingumajig? Hey you? The creature from the black lagoon? Rex? Fido? Dumpling? Diddums? Ickle bickle luvaduck? Darlink?

Don't ask me. I'm drunk, and thus not fit to be left in charge of an infant.

What question would you like to ask next? (About time this thread got 'meta').

Well, FIRST, I'd like to answer the question you, in your charming but befuddled inebriation, neglected to answer :

Thaddeus, Hamish, Ulyous. These are the boys who will never have to suffer the slings and arrows of derision, because I failed to take them from the realm of imagination into the material reality of my womb.

I like to think that they would have been extraordinary young men at this point.

If, ten years from now, I can no longer communicate, what communication from me are you most likely to remember?

blissed · 19-01-07 02:56:33

I think I'll remember your internet communication most

Your a Sapphic captain of a lesbian pirate ship who has captured a frigate sailing under the bisexual flag on it's way to deliver male slaves to the island of lesbos. there was no loss of life. and the all woman crew seem pretty pleased to be rid of their old captain. What do you do know,

do you

A/ set the slaves free?

or

B/ take them to Lesbos, sell them (except the ones you think are cute)
and keep the money?

Hmmm.... question? There was a question?

Sorry, I got side tracked imagining myself as the captain of a lesbian pirate ship. Ahoy! I have an unashamed love for cheesey and heavily romanticised things like mermaids and girl pirates.

How am I supposed to get back to thinking about the database now?

Adagio · 22-01-07 05:37:48

Is it a database of people? If so, imagine that they are all mermaids or naked lesbian pirates!

Is anyone watching the Australian Open (tennis)?

Siobhan · 22-01-07 06:17:19

Not I, said the captain. too busy handling the muscles of the slaves.

Let the people Go, of course! There's no other answer.

But first, I'd try to charm a few of my favourites to come alone with me and do me, er, my, yes that's it, MY bidding.

speaking of charming few, it appears, though i've not yet seen it, that there's a wonderful new VIDEO out today of our Fantastic Four???

LIke fine wine, I think I'll wait a bit to let the last sip settle.

mmmmmm yeah I've said before that that video was my idea and I still resent the fact that Liandra took my place :( I was even prepared to buy my own plane ticket.
But that's just how it is, life just isn't fair.

Have you ever been paid to much in your wage slip and did you point out the mistake to your employer?

Paid too much in my wage slip? That sounds kinky!

Safari or cruise?

Siobhan · 24-01-07 21:51:21

Well there's goign to be a lot of discussion about that film over these next weeks.

I liked it too. Prob is, I can't remember any of it since about two hours after I saw it. But the History Boys, now THAT's stayed in my mind. And Dreams of Sleep. and Kinky Boots.

This thread appears to be lilting.

Where you live, how much does it cost you (in Euros or $ or some estimated equivalent) to live? Include rent/mortage, power, heat, etc. IF you still live with your parents, please let someone else respond. I'm interested in how much we're paying --

The_Elfman · 25-01-07 02:09:55

It costs me £470.00 a month sharing a house with my best friend. That's rent, power, gas, phone, everything. (but excluding food, clothing etc).

Siobhan · 25-01-07 16:16:25

Thx Elfman. very helpful, that.
So sorry I didn't see Adagio's earlier post. For me, safari. Though as I get older, a cruise does sound a whole lot easier.

Who is the IFM forum member we've lost to the sands of time whom you would most wish to come back?
