It's certainly an interesting discussion.

A plastic bottle / bag thing of white wine from M&S, which is miles better than it should be. A mix of garganega and pinot grapes, plus no clanking bottle of shame in the recycling bin. Just some poorly/poisoned sealife well in the future, most likely.

Q - If you had to eat one of your own body parts in order to save the world, due to an administrative mix-up of some sort, which body part would it be?

Whoops, sorry - missed that. Is Ponyo anime? If so, I'm going to say Ponyo.

If not, my question is - what is anime?

But if it is, my question is - if you could rewind time, but only for 24 hours maximum, and only ever do it once, would you have used that power by now?

Ooh, that's a brilliant question! I'd like to say no, but that would only be true if I had a cooling off period. Otherwise I probably would have hit the button about ten seconds after I knew it was available.

If you could piggyback on the life of one person in history - you don't get to interfere, just watch - who would it be?

Do you ever get bored of telling people that? ;)

Assuming he existed, Jesus Christ. Would be interesting to see how he did his tricks.

Would you rather have a hand made out of ham, or an armpit that dispensed suncream?

I'm assuming the ham hand grows back if you eat it, but quite slowly. So you can't just go crazy, or equally end up permanently handhamless after a night on the beer.

On reflection, the armpit suncream dispenser. I am assuming you would need a pump action chicken wing style motion to activate it, however, and it doesn't just leak out all the time in making that decision.

I've never seen a ghost and I don't expect to either as I don't think they exist.

There's no specific right/wrong answer to this.

While the loss of life caused by the bombs was devastating, the alternative would have likely been Operation Downfall which would have lasted much longer, and led to many more casualties than the number inflicted by the nukes.

Depends what you classify as a kids show. Pokemon was probably my favourite for years, but Naruto is one of my faves as an adult and I started watching that as a kid. Does it even count as a kids show?

Q - If we were trapped on a desert island together, what would you want to talk about first? And it can't be about the island or why we're stranded there or why it was my fault, I'm tired of people always moaning about that, like, can't we just have a nice conversation? Geez.

After we finished agreeing that it was all your fault, we would have a nice chat about how seawater doesn’t taste that bad once you get used to it.

Tea or coffee?

Ever?

Nah, impossible, I'm going to have to narrow that down. Weirdest thing last week is all you can have. A friend of mine sent me a picture of her boobs, quite unasked for and for reasons I still don't entirely understand. I wasn't sure what to say, but I didn't want to seem disparaging as she is a friend after all. So, by way of an ego boost to her, I said that I would definitely go to town on them. I don't know why I thought this was an appropriate response, and, whilst she seemed happy enough with that and there has been no awkwardness since, now I certainly have to look at her directly only from the neck up forevermore.

Question - you get a life-unchanging amount of money from a vaguely unsatisfactory PPI claim. It's exactly £283.17p. What are you going to do with your disappointing lump sum, hotshot?

113 Euromillion tickets. I'd donate the remaining £0.67 to Gecko for the forum running costs because that's the sort of selfless guy I am.

30 seconds, you'd better get back to the cooker.

Never Bugs but the existence of the Cadbury's Caramel Bunny and Jessica Rabbit are proof enough that anthropomorphic rabbits are certainly capable of eliciting such responses in me. :datass:

Colombia. Fell In love with the city of Medellín, and Bogota is set to become one of the largest Megacities in the world by 2030 and the country has a fast growing economy. Not to mention the people are cool as strawberry float.


The HMS shitposting is sinking! All of GRcade is abandoning ship and you made it out No.1FFF's home made life rafts.

Two other forumites swim towards you they are _______ & _______
But! There is only room enough on your non splash resistant raft for 2 people.

You must save one, and (by the circumstances you all find yourselves in) kill the other.

Who do you save, and who do you let drown in the Meme ocean?

Kill Kezzer, save literally anybody else. If you insist on me choosing then Gecko as he pays the bills here.

Rugby or cricket?
