This round is from naydhezdha. Damn. I think I misspelled that.

1)Cheese curds or butterburgers?

Butterburgers. You can pretend that there’s food there, instead of just fat. Meat, for instance. And they present themselves as a meal, not snack food. Cheese is not a snack food. No matter how tasty garlic-dill-white-cheddar curds are, you’re not supposed to be just popping them in your mouth while you watch TV. A Butterburger is an instance; an incident; a moment. Cheese curds are a chronic condition.

2) If you (heaven forbid) had to run Trivia again, what would be an ultrabonus category you'd consider?

Oh jeez…Ultrabonus? Um. I always hated the ultra…Catholic saints? Blacklisted Hollywood actors? Ingredients for a tasty snack?

3) What's in your favorite picnic basket? (spare no expense!)

Start with the hard materials: A big blanket, with a vinyl underside so it doesn’t soak through to any damp ground. In addition to cupsplatessilverware, two wine glasses, probably made of plastic.
A bottle of wine. Red, or a less dry white.
A baguette, brie, apples and grapes.
Perhaps salami or some spicy cold-cut meat.
Ice-cold water.
Cookies. Chocolate chip or Oatmeal Scotchies.
More apples.
More cookies.
More wine, thanks…

4) What's your favorite campaign that you've run? Why?

Orb. It’s the only one I’ve run with any real duration and dedication, and I love it. And the people have just brought it alive. It’s also a great ‘starter’ world for me. Next time, less standard-fantasy and more strangeness!

5) If you had to spend the rest of your life stuck in a computer/PlayStation2/etc. game, which one would it be?

Eternal Darkness!
No, I’m kidding. Besides, how would I know I was in an Eternal Darkness game until the zombie ate my brain?
Thief. Definitely thief. I’m not a good thief myself, but the Pagans or the Hammers could use a good devotee, and there’s so much weird stuff—but comparatively few Big Nasty Things Killing Everyone Right and Left, as opposed to Baldur’s Gate, for instance.

I’m in Hilton Head right now, soon to return…so my access to LJ is pretty limited. When I return, expect a full entry involving:
--Moonrise on the beach
--Poking things with a stick
--Squashy jellyfish (see above re: stick)
--Japanese steakhouses
--Why I still don’t get American Idol
--Why I will never get The Swan
--Familial traits
--Language skills
--Sixties-tv-couple sleeping arrangements and the ensuing cramps
--Why Dance Dance Revolution is the awesomest thing in the arcade

In the meantime, I amused myself one early morning by completing some questions that ppaladin sent me. It’s the standard Five Questions meme, but I lost the rules, so I think I’m actually breaking them by not posting them verbatim. Foo.

WHAT I CAN REMEMBER OF THE RULES:
1. Post in my comments section if you want to be ‘interviewed’ by me.
2. Answer the questions, then
3. Post your answers, and the real rules, in your journal, and
4. Ask questions of anyone who wants them.
