THIS or THAT: the game
-
In parts of Canada the Summer Solestice is dedicated to celebrating First Nations Culture. The Winter Solestice is just private celebrations for certain groups of neo-Pagans. I prefer the celebration of Summer Solestice.
Mincemeat pie or plum pudding
-
Perhaps a mincemeat pie, light on the suet.
THIS or THAT…
Abercrombie, or Fitch?
Just kidding.
Chit, or Chat?
Still kidding. Now, for real:
Eggs Florentine or Eggs Benedict?
-
Eggs Florentine - I don't eat pork.
(In Canada there's Eggs Benjamin that uses smoked salmon instead of ham.)Welsh rabbit or raclette
-
Welsh rabbit, it appeals to my appetite.
Dogos: Schnauzer or Pug?
-
Hmm, small dogs, eh? Well, I think a pug would be easier for a snake to digest, so I'll choose that. ::) Now a proper dog, Dobermans are awesome.
Let's do pets: A hamster or rats (can't have just one rat).
-
Hamster - are they also social creatures?
Siamese or persian
-
Oh, let the cat man answer.
All of mine are rescues, and none will ever meet cteavin, or his snake. :afr:
(My favorite pet, of course, is a trouser snake.) :dick:
Back to THIS or THAT: I'll take a Seal Point Siamese, or this Siam Lilac Point:

Persian cats are fur disasters and I find them, well, ugly.
THIS or THAT:
A colorful Parrot, or a Myna Bird that talks dirty?
-
I'd prefer a quiet bird like a pigeon but given the choices, I'd take the colorful parrot.
(Hamsters aren't social creatures and do better alone. They're dumb as rocks, too. They only succeed as pets because they're so darn cute. Rats, however, are amazing pets. I considered buying three this year but I'm just not home enough to take care of them as they really need play and attention.)
You have to kill an animal to survive. Do you kill a cow on a farm or shoot a deer in the wild?
-
I can't see I'd need to kill to survive if I were on a farm. I could just milk a cow. So, deer in the wild.
Turkey or chicken
-
As a mascot? Chicken. As meal, Turkey.
Horse or Bull?
-
That could be taken so many different ways… Horses are good for racing and bulls for bullfights, so I'll take horses.
Here's a question for everyone: Limited carbs for the rest of your life but you have excellent health and low body fat, or your current level with an ever increasing fat percentage and shorter lifespan?
-
I'm already limiting carbs (and processed foods), and surprise, surprise! Losing weight and feeling better, as well. So, I'm fine with that choice.
THIS or THAT: A trip to, and dinner at, a Buenos Aires steak house, or a Shanghai seafood restaurant?
-
I would love to visit either Argentina or China. I can eat beef but I cannot eat shellfish; so the Steakhouse wins out.
Rijsttafel in Holland or Hainann chicken in Singapore
(corected the speling)
-
Rijsttafel in Holland, always wanted to pay a visit over there.
¿Miley Cirus - Malibu or Katy Perry - Chained to the Rhythm?
-
That's haaaaaard. I'm going to go with KP because of the effort put in the video (though thematically it reminds me of a toned down/pg version of Black Hole Sun). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mbBbFH9fAg
Then again, Miley's is the better song. Fuck it, I'm going with Miley.
Which Ani's song describing a relationship does a better job?
Ani https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Th-GDhsveM4 or
Suzanne https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_TE_esWVtI -
Marlene on the Wall, her voice sounds deeper conveying more meaning -which means it's more of my liking.
Gaga mashup/medley version: SUPERFRUIT (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcG6DRlXHkk) or Todrick Hall (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaQ6Xhwnlhw)?
-
SUPERFRUIT had too many slow bits for my liking – I wanna be pumped up when I listen to Gaga. OMG, TH, I had to subscribe. Gone will be an afternoon to see what videos they made. Great voice, fantastic video.
Madonna and Gaga have one concert each on the same day at the same time, so you can only go to one: Who do you see (and why)?
-
gaga,who has a better vocal
which is the better mainstream horror movie of 2017: It or Annabelle 2
-
None, both are terrible in giving you the chills. There is barely tension but a lot of already used clichés. On the other hand, I expected a lot from both, but I'd go with It.
Disney Pocahontas or Mulan?
-
Definitely Mulan. I have an anecdote about each.
I was working in an office designed to do AIDS outreach for Indigenous populations when Pocohantas came out. A group had been invited to a pre-screening of Pocohantas. The door slammed open as the group who had just seen the movie stalked into the room muttering about the "fucking white people".
I saw Mulan with a friend the last day it was at the theatres in Toronto. We were the only non-chinese in the audience. Everyone except us laughed at certain scenes. Everyone except us sighed at certain scenes. Leaving the movie, we heard grandparents with their children and grandchildren excitedly explaining subtle points about the movie.
The Force Awakens or Jumanji
