Ask the Person Below You

[sam]

Definitely bloated but not totally gross.

Your favorite Wes Anderson flick?

[ifihadahifi]

I'll have to go with Bottle Rocket... although The Life Aquatic gives it a run for the money. And so does the Royal Tenenbaums.
And The Darjeeling Limited.

Gah. That like asking me which kid I love less. (Liam)



You told your friend Bernice I'm some kind of jet pilot?

[monet2u]

I used to have a friend Berneice, but I never told her that!



What's the cure for going out and having too many on a Monday night?

[mere1975]

Skipping work on Tuesday.

What was a pair of scissors doing in the men's restroom?

- Mere "and don't give it to me unless you Lysol it to hell" 1975

P.S.
Hifi, Sam and I were just watching Bottle Rocket this weekend. I had forgotten all about the Grace character.

[Irock]

I'm going to go with what is probably the boring truth: someone forgot they had the scissors in their hand and walked into the bathroom, then realized they didn't need them in there and set them down.

When was the last time you got / gave flowers?

side note: Katie, I have no idea what those AT&T commercials even say because all I can think is, "damn, Luke Wilson srouted a Leno chin!"

[ifihadahifi]

Well, since I can't remember the last time... maybe it will be today. I prefer to give them spontaneously and skip the typical occassions like Valentines and anniversaries.
(And I hate receiving flowers.)

What do you recommend?

[roach]

big pretty ones. or daisies.

should the frigging bidding process of buying a friggin house really take 3 friggin weeks???????

ro"i know the answer and it makes me want to drive to the southern sector to a certain lawyers office and kick him in the friggin throat face!"ach

[sam]

I think they know if they are giving you the loan in about 7 minutes, so the wait makes no sense to me either.

Does referring to South Dallas as the Southern Sector sound more P.C. or more 1984?

[mere1975]

I don't know -- I prefer to call it Down Under.

How well can you tell apart accents: Scottish, British, posh British, cockney, Australian, fancy American (like Frasier Crane or 1940s movie stars who sound British kinda)?

- Mere "dan undah" 1975

[Irock]

I'm pretty good at it. Give me about three sentences that contain plrnty of vowels and at least one word that ends in an 'a' and I can probably ID any of those accents.

But I call 'fancy American' the Joan Crawford accent. It's unique because it doesn't come FROM anywhere...

Why is Roach talking about house buying?

Inquiring* minds want to know!

*nosey

[roach]

because we're buying a house. some day. it's not the loan process, we're friggin slam dunks there. we're dealing with a southern sector lawyer(it's def '84 up in that bitch) and the people who scored the house in the will... we've made 3 offers, 2 of them the lawyer said were good they just need it in paper, then 4 friggin days later the lawyer says no bueno. "it's a proud neighborhood" they say. their Realtor is pissed at them. the sellers say it's the lawyer draggin it out the lawyer blames the sellers... talking to katie now, she just spoke with the lawyer, the neighborhood is freaking out about us youngsters moving in... this is so frigging stupid. apparently a rev lived in this house before we did, we gonna kick the jesus out of that mofo.... yes, i am annoyed finally.

are you ready for some MOTHER FUCKING LOST!!!???


GIANT EDIT: after i talked to katie the lawyers wife/office manager called to let katie know that she forgot to tell cleo, the lawyer, the seller had already accepted the offer that she wanted to welcome us to the neighborhood and that they live across the street. crazy. odd. now I guess we roll on to the inspection... 3 weeks later.

[monet2u]

No don't watch Lost. couldn't get into way back when now I just want it to be over so people stop talking about it.

(congrats on the house )


What show do you wish would go away?

[roach]

can't think of one. i have the power of a remote and an ignore function in my head for such things. but i could do with less lady gaga hate/love? is obama not polarizing enough? she is tearing the very fabric of the hipster nation apart!

what was the first nudie movie you saw?

[mere1975]

The Jay Leno Show, I guess.

EDIT:
Oops. Nudie? Maybe something like Porky's or Meatballs??? ARe they nudie?

Anybody else watching (and enjoying) Modern Family?

- Mere "WOOOO on the contract, Jason and Katie! Pics??" 1975

[roach]

i wanted to but kept forgetting. perhaps rent the first season before the next one starts, I've heard really good things.
