Your Turn to Shine

Don’t forget to sign up for the Absurdist Video Contest!

Today, I had posted a really fucking boring video of how my conversations with Wayne go. But the damned thing is 8 minutes long and boring as hell. So, I decided to chuck it, because I wouldn’t be very interested in watching a pig and a lamb (dog toys) talk to each other about politics. Trust me, I was tired when I created it, which means no funny voices, and 8 minutes of hell.

So thank me for not making you watch that.

My muse is off today, like so many days. I don’t even have anything to bitch about, because I don’t ever leave the house, which means few people piss me off. And I am not going to go into my frustration with the health insurance company, because, don’t we all have enough to handle with those fuckers?

So, today is your day to shine. Here’s the question I would like for you to answer, should you so choose.

If you were on a deserted island, and all of your basic survival needs were cared for (food, water shelter, clothes), what three things would you take with you?

    Well before I saw Dave2’s post…. I was going to say an extremely full mp3/ video player (tons of audiobooks), solar charger for my mp3 player, and my buckwheat pillow.

    But now I say a life sized Bad Monkey doll and my two blogography shirts.No, wait blogography shirts are basic necessities, so instead I’ll take my blow up absurdist and poppy Kirstie Alley dolls.

    DaveII: hahahahahha. And it’s still early morning! Why wouldn’t you take me? You would take Wayne? I am a much better lay.

    Wayne: You know, I wrote this before reading Dave II’s. How funny is that? I never gave you an absurdist blow-up doll. What sex site did you buy it at? How many holes does it have? I never modeled naked for one.

    Matt-Man: Don’t worry; toilet paper is provided. Unless you want Charmin. Please do tell; why Jessica Alba?

    Purely for her intellect. I would need to have a hot…er…I mean, profound conversationalist around. Cheers!!

    You had to make it 3, not 4.

    sigh.

    If I say “the cats” can they count as one “thing” instead of 3?

    Hmmmm….

    Can I say my computer hooked up to the Internet so I could read and read and read on any little subject that comes to my little mind and find out anything? That’s how I found out that a “wildebeeest” is actually part of the “gnu” family - and that there are not one but TWO acceptable ways to pronounce “gnu”.

    And - em - damn. I really don’t know. A keg of Diet Pepsi? Wait - you did say my basic survival needs were already taken care of, didn’t you?

    Does this island have electricity? If so I would take my laptop but only if the island also got internet.

    If there is no electricity I would take…. hmmm…..

    nope. Internet. That’s all I’d need.

    A boat and two sailors.

  • 10 Epiphany // Mar 6, 2008 at 3:54 pm

    Hm…

    1. Books

    2. The fiance

    3. A computer with the internet

    Or wait…does the internet count as a necessity? Heh.

    Matt-Man: Yeah. And big snowballs come out of my ass every day.

    Poppy: Yup, the cats count as one thing. Don’t forget to take your vet.

    Nanna: This is a question that was asked of me on chemistry.com. I also indicated that “basic necessities” in the 00s includes electricity and inet access. I mean, if that’s not a basic necessity, I would rather go without food.

    Kyra: What? No lesbian porn stars?

    Avi: don’t forget to leave the “seamen” behind.

    Piph: Don’t you think that you are going to end up killing your fiance after a couple of days? ;-)

  • 12 Poppy // Mar 6, 2008 at 6:42 pm

    Oki, then I take:

    1. The cats
    2. Dawg (as my boy and my vet)
    3. A computer that has power and internet access so I can do games, books, movies, music, blogs, writing, etc.

    Eh, if I haven’t offed him yet he’s probably safe.

  • 14 Epiphany // Mar 7, 2008 at 1:59 pm

    Also…am I the only one whose brain took Avitable’s comment in entirely the wrong direction?

    I’m thinking…heehee, kinky…then the logic part goes “wait…he probably meant to get off the island, you perv.”

    Sometimes I hate that logical part of my brain…

Come on man. You know you want to say something!
