Since no one else has jumped on it, I'll take the chance to start another one

No signup neccessary! Jump in whenever you like. Guys and girls alike may play. I just hope i can weed out the unwanted

for my first question, I'll use one that I quite liked when i did this in chat

1) If i were your pet turtle, what would you do to keep me happy?

Q1 - Turtle:
I'd make sure your water was just murky enough to make you feel at home. There would also be a nice rock and a sunlamp that I'd control by timer, so I could simulate sunrise and sunset day and night for you. I'd feed you by hand, not some dumb flakes sprinkled in the water. I'd stroke you, oil-massage your leathery skin, and polish your shell everyday.

If you really wanted it, I'd give you a female turtle to play with, but I think I might get jealous.

Well, I would take you to the beach so that you could frolic in a natural habitat with your other turtle friends. I would gently massage scented oils on you at night and wax your shells weekly. I would also find you a nice, studly tortoise to keep you company, IYKWIM. *~wink wink nudge~*

1) If i were your pet turtle, what would you do to keep me happy? I would sit you on my lap and feed you lots of lettuce, and stroke your little turtle head while you gaze at me adoringly with your little turtle eyes. I'd also gaze at YOU adoringly with my big blue human eyes. You could swim around with me in my pool (sans chlorine and the other nasty anti-turtle stuff, of course) and we could sunbathe together once we got out. I'll put some nice rocks and stuff around for you to play in, so you feel right at home. We could also go down to the beach sometimes, if you're a salt water turtle. I'd make sure to take real good care of your shell, and I'd keep you nice and clean so you could sleep on my pillow next to me at night. As long as you don't crap on it. You bad turtle.

though hogs and rhinos might have the edge in brute force, i think the record will show that turtles have superior fighting skill, and are smarter.

I would give you a nice kiddie pool out on my porch so you could swim in the sunlight and when it got cold or rainy, you could take the tub. I'd feed you assortments of vegtables and fruits and sometimes just let you crawl around the house or go on walks with me.

I wouldn't get a turtle. I'd get a dog. If you were my dog, i would take you for scenic walks in the park every day, where we would play catch with your favorite tennis ball. I'd cook up steak for you at least once a week. I would let you sleep on my bed with me every night. I would never leave the house overnight without taking you with me, just so i would not have to see the hurt in your eyes when you knew i was abandoning you for the night. If you insist on asking what i would do if you were a turtle, i would leave you in the pet store. I don't like turtles

2) What childhood game (Hopscotch, Red-Rover, Kickball, etc.) do you think was the most fun, and why? If the same game were played by adults, what would be different?

All of those games suck. Hopscotch is dull, Red-Rover allows people to play favorites, and Kickball is just a chance for athletic peopel to show off and take 2 or 3 turns before a more timid kid can take 1. Hide-and-Seek, however, is a good game. All you gotta do is find a hiding spot. If you're found and tagged, you're out. Last person found gets to take the next turn at being "it." Sure, it's still physical, but it's also a more intellectual game, IMO. You actually have to think of a good palce to hide and then make sure you aren't found. The example games are just physical. Some are even dangerous. I've seen quite a few people clotheslined in Red-Rover.

If Hide-and-Seek were played by adults, well, I can see it getting quite disturbing. Adults have pretty sick minds. I think you can picture it.

I might point out that the three listed games were merely examples of what i deemed "childhood games." I didn't mean for them to be multiple choice answers. Hence the "etc."

Note the change in accent]

My favorite childhood game was called "Lawn darts" They were large darts with a metal tip. The "game" was that we would stand together and throw the dart straight up. Whoever ran was a chicken and the rest of us would beat him up. Cool, eh?

Another of my personal favorite strip poker, but that got old after the 2nd grade. Hopefully, no explanation is required.

But the absolute best childhood game is this one... You need a partner and you sit across from them on at a table. Both of you have a shot glass filled with whatever strong alcohol you could find and you bounce a quarter and try to make it land in their glasses. If it does, they have to drink it. Man that game was awesome until my parents made me stop playing at 10.

Of course there were other games like "hot potato" with a tennis ball set on fire, but they are trivial in my memories.

1) I don't have a stinking clue how to take of a turtle. I guess I'd feel you grass and stuff, and set up some sort of heat lamp for you. Why can't you be a back yard or a car?

2) Soccer, no doubt. All the boys in my class and I would have week-long games. I kicked their asses, it was awesome!

These days, I'd be lucky to find a single guy who'd be willing to go one on one with a ball without thinking that I want to get in his pants or something. I played on women's teams in high school and college, but it's a totally different game with women.

1) Unlike some people, I would sprinkle dumb flakes in the water. I haven't seen anything saying turtles don't like them. I'd also steal some of the wonderful ideas from the other contestants, just not the flakeless feeding.

2) Capture the flag, because there's some mix of strategy and just running around like idiots. It already is played by adults, they just do it with paintball guns or magical items or whatever.

I thought hide and seek was the most fun, simply because I enjoyed hiding and the thrill of the chase.

If it was played by adults, I think there'd be a lot more going on if they hid in couples (if you know what I mean ), and it would be just as much fun played by one couple as with several (hey let's swap!).

I always liked what we called "Squeeze-in" - Similar to hide-and seek, but in the dark. Only one person hides and everyone else seeks, and once you find the persn after wandering around in the dark, you then have to climb into the same hiding spot as the person hiding. You end up with about five or so (depending on how many are in the game) squeezed into a tiny amount of space. I think the adult version would be essentially the same. How funny would it be, though, if people played it naked and lubricated?

2. When I was a kid my friends and I would always spar with each other and have choregraphed fights. If adults did it

3. I guess the inside of a cave, with one of those underground rivers (those are so cool!). I'd bring a flashlight, sandwiches, and a blanket to sit on.

3. Low orbit, I think. We'd probably need a spacecraft of some sort. I'd be sure to pack some wine juiceboxes, dehydrated chocolate cake, and astronaut ice cream. I'd also get the cargo bay of our spacecraft overhauled - a gigantic window, and the rest of it would be well padded, so we could float around and do crazy things.

I suppose that we could be among the first to join the 100-mile high club.

3) Describe for me the most secluded and romantic place in nature. What kind of things would you bring with us if we went there?

Near where I live is a clear pond, with weeping willows growing along the edge. At one spot, there are willows almost completely bordering a patch of land about 15 feet by 15 feet, with a gentle slope down to the sandy beach, and the sand extends into the pond for about 20 feet. Before it drops off, it's just 4 feet deep. It's totally secluded in the summer, when the weeping willows blossom and they droop into the water. It's a cool, sun dappled place, perfect for a romantic picnic, a swim in the pond, playing in the shallows. At night, the fireflies help light the place up, and the moonlight filters through the branches.

If we went there, I'd bring an entire day's worth of stuff.
  • Picnic basket, with fried chicken, salads, fruits and wines.
  • playing cards or any other board games you like
  • blankets and pillows (for a nap or to sleep overnight)
  • swimming clothes (or we could skinnydip)
  • a few books for the quiet moments
  • relaxing music CDs (and a well-charged player)
  • and just in case, condoms. No glove, no love.

1) If i were your pet turtle, what would you do to keep me happy?

IT IS GOOD THAT YOU ARE A TURTLE. That Means You Have Not Been Brainwashed STUPID and Educated EVIL. You May Be Able To Learn The TRUTH Of Nature's Harmonious Simultaneous 4-Day Perpetual Time Cube.

When the Sun shines upon Earth, 2 - major Time points are created on opposite sides of Earth - known as Midday and Midnight. Where the 2 major Time forces join, synergy creates 2 new minorTime points we recognize as Sunup and Sundown.

The 4-equidistant Time points can be considered as Time Square imprinted upon the circle of Earth. In a single rotation of the Earth sphere, each Time corner point rotates through the other 3-corner Time points, thus creating 16 corners, 96 hours and 4-simultaneous 24 hour Days within a single rotation of Earth - equated to a Higher Order of Life Time Cube.

Now You Are The WISEST TURTLE To Have Ever Lived On Earth.

2) What childhood game (Hopscotch, Red-Rover, Kickball, etc.) do you think was the most fun, and why? If the same game were played by adults, what would be different?

Stupid Educators ignore the Time Cube and teach Children the stupidity of Linear Time. The Games they play BETRAY Life by hiding the Time Cube and only allowing Linear Time. Linear Time Is DEADLY And SUICIDAL.

Human metamorphosis has 4-corner lifetime stages known as baby, child, parent and grandparent. Bible-god equates 1-corner and bare Earth for children. 4-corner Truth is ineffable and no self or god can speak Truth. Only baby is born. Adult is not born. Without metamorphosis - no adults.

So while the Child Corner Face is being Educated Stupid, Simultaneously, so is the Adult Corner Face.

Q4 Appliance

I'd be a can opener. I can use a canopener on a can missing a label or labelled wrongly and see the truth of what's inside, just like I do with people. People don't come with labels, or we give them labels that may or may not be appropriate. Since I'm the kind of person who tries to look beyond the labels, into people's hearts and minds to see what makes them the unique person they are, the can opener seems to be the best analogy.

4) I have no reason to want to be a kitchen appliance. But if I did, I would most likely to be a microwave. Of all the appliances, the microwave is the sexiest. It also does the 0-to-cooked in under 2 minutes. I'm not too complicated to use, yet few people really understand me. I'm pretty hot, too. Razz

3. I would take you to the top of Angel Falls and we could look out on the supposedly beautiful scenery. I'm not too into nature, but I heard chicks dig that sort of thing. We could have a picnic lunch, I guess. Maybe one of those candles. Definitely a blanket *~wink wink, nudge nudge~* IYKWIM Oh, and whipped cream.

4. I don't spend much time in the kitchen. I guess I'd like to be a fridge, though. There's lots of room in there, plus that's where the whipped cream is kept, IYKWIM.

3) Definitely any sort of high-up overlook, where you can see the world yet feel apart from it at the same time. Since hiking wouldn't exactly be romantic, I'd go for the standard picnic things and perhaps a pair of binoculars too so we can watch birds or something.

I need some time to think about #4.
