Yes and yes (and I usually use the preview function as well - go figure!).
Do you laugh after the fact at some of the stuff you post? -- not in its cleverness but in the "the fuck was I thinking?" sense?
Yes. I read it and think, "Oh, what the boys on here will do with this." The funny thing is that I didn't think of it in a guy sense when I was writing it.
Did deadend's question remind you of that Seinfeld?
The one where they bootleg in the theater? Yes, I have.
I requested CDs from the library and a batch of them came in all at once. A batch being a 4 CD book set from Talking Heads and 14 others from Modest Mouse, Bon Iver and Joseph Arthur. I came in, my husband was working out and he yelled from the basement, "BOOTLEGGER!" I get it from him. It's all his fault. I do go back and buy CDs that I like. I treat the library like a taste tester buffet.
What was your first set of wheels? (scooter, push bike, big wheel, tricycle...)
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
A little horse with a tray underneath. I used to wheel around the house on it and keep "grain" in the bottom tray. Well, the "grain" one day was something I was plowing through until my mom looked into the "grain" box. (Raisins.) They had gotten buggy and I was eating maggots! Gah!
Yes, I was poor, just moved to California. I had a case of the Manchurian ramen noodles and went to fix a package. Dumped it in my bowl of water and saw maggot casings. Dumped it out, got a fresh package, more maggot casings. I checked the next package, still airtight sealed...more maggot casings. I don't eat Manchurian brand noodles...ever. Must. Always. Be. Nissan.
I don't eat raisins either!
Do you like Cadbury creme eggs?

Yes, one is 6 pounds and shivvers non-stop when the temps go below 50*...the other one, well he has a special name and I knotted him a red and white striped sweater...he bounces around when I put it on him. It's hilarious.
Do you give your pets treats?

What kind of treat are we talking about? A good treat? Like ice cream?

Of course I let him pick his treat...salmon skin or deer antler?
Those 'fun size' bars aren't very 'fun'...
Have you ever caught a HR ball at a game?

Yes, it makes me think there is a bad cold going around.
When you see the # sign...Do you still think 'pound'?

I do. Last year my friend was on the phone with cell phone customer service in England. He was telling her to do something and he goes "press the hash key" and she's like "what?" I'm like "the hash tag symbol." She goes "what?" "The fucking pound button!" "Oh. Why didn't he just say that?"
Do you have anyone in your life who you wonder how they've made it this far?
When you see some little kids, do you ever think " they look exactly like the neighbor kid growing up"?

I wish! Actually - maybe in looks, but in how many little kids now carry themselves? Strikes me as just weird. Like they know they're constantly posing and those photos will be shared with the world.
Tiny actors!
Has the way people communicate become both wonderful and weird?
Oh yeah...now you think, "gosh if we had cell phones back then, parties would have been so much easier to plan!" But really, kids today don't plan parties, or get together to BS...they are on their phones, internet, whatever.
Have you seen the new mad max movie?

Are you currently bootlegging library CDs right now? (I know someone who is.)

deadend, I asked a question prior to goddamming it.
And in general, mucho milk. Horizon has made milk my friend again!
Did deadend's question remind you of that Seinfeld?
I don't care if you slap Horizon on it. Gah! Milk is yucky!

On a lighter note, yes on the eggs! But just a bite, otherwise overload on sweetness.
Can you resist cute dogs dressed up even though you know it humiliates them?
