While I'm at it, why don't I just create a ~new~ (!!) chain game to be obsessed with, too?


Here goes : I ask what would you do if... and give a weird situation.
You come up with the wackiest, silliest, funniest, etc. reaction to it - or just say the first thing that comes to mind. (Why do I feel radioactive or mutated animals will quickly be involved?)

I need a good laugh right now.


So I start. What would you do if the postman, dressed in a protective radiohazard-environment-type suit, delivered your Nervousness mail encased in a block of very hard glass?

Seusomon
09-19-2003, 03:54 PM
Just casually take it to work and pass it on to the counting lab. (One of the little perks of working at Los Alamos.) B)

What would you do if everyone you spoke to for an entire day just happened to drop the word "lugubrious" into their routine conversation?

WindspiritWhimsies
09-19-2003, 09:25 PM
Well, I would try to cheer those lugubrious souls up! LMAOOO!!!


What if you saw someone who had a hole or split in their pants and didn't know it, would you tell them?

Lilac
09-21-2003, 07:20 PM
Yes, I would tell them. I had a particularly embarrassing experience myself where I walked the length of a mall with the back of my dress tucked into my pantyhose, exposing my rear to an uncounted number of people who never said a word (but presumably chuckled behind my back). So, yes, I would try to spare a stranger that sort of embarrassment.


What would you do if, in the middle of a park, a big, evil-looking dog ran up to you and started humping you...and every time you tried to push him away he would growl?

atomic_cocktail
09-21-2003, 07:23 PM
kick em in the nuts!... they are right about foot level.... im not very scared of dogs... i find for the most part they are more bark than bite.


What would you do if you went to work and your boss was dressed as a clown for no reason and was acting calm about it?

Lilac
09-21-2003, 07:28 PM
LOL! (picturing it at this moment!) I would probably just walk up and ask him "what's up with the clown costume?"


What would you do if you woke up tomorrow morning and you were yourself at ten years old?

atomic_cocktail
09-21-2003, 07:31 PM
it depends if you mean I would be back in time when I was ten.... or would I be ten in present time... either way the first thing I would do is jump up and down. Being ten again and knowing what I know now would be sooo cool. I could redo things if I was back in time and if not I could have fun for awhile being ten now.... i think my husband would think it was weird.


What would you do if suddenly your voice changed and was pitched super high??

DeathbyMoshPit
09-21-2003, 07:32 PM
I would bring terror to my family again...and actually wake up in time for saturday morning cartoons.

What would you do if horny purple-glowing leperchauns took over your school or workplace?

Lilac
09-21-2003, 07:37 PM
I would pinch myself REAL hard to make sure I wasnt dreaming...and if I werent, I'd go home and enjoy my day off.

What would you do if you were walking down the street and suddenly realized you were buck naked?

nymphette
09-21-2003, 08:47 PM
first i would hope that i was dreaming.. then i would hope that i was at a nudist colony... and then i would either go home and get dressed, or go to a nudist colony.. why not?? already naked in public, may as well go where everyone else is too!!!


what would you do if someone came up to you while you were standing in line (doing whatever, or whereever) and threw his/her arms around you and said 'oh my GOD judy!!! i haven't seen you forever!!!! ' and gave you a big kiss???

<_<

Lilac
09-21-2003, 09:10 PM
Well, hopefully this person wouldnt look deranged or have a foul odor.......I'd probably just giggle and tell the person that he/she was mistaken...that I wasnt Judy.

What would you do if you came on these Nervousness forums and everyone was writing nasty stuff about you....ALL the entries were about YOU...about what a terrible artist you were...that you thought you were so great...that you didnt carry through with your N'ness commitments, etc...etc...etc...

gwensmom
09-21-2003, 09:12 PM
get the hell out of here!



If your parents had a child and it wasn't your brother or sister, who is it?

nymphette
09-21-2003, 11:24 PM
it's me of course!!! l'il ole me.....

what would you do if your best friend suddenly became interested in cock fighting and wanted to borrow money from you all the time so she could place bets until she won ebough to buy herself a nice bird or two???

VeronicasLovebug
09-21-2003, 11:27 PM
I'd tell her that i love her dearly...but i won't support her bad habits lol :P



What would you do if every time you asked anyone a question....they would repeat the question....ponder it for a minute...and then answer it? :blink:

nymphette
09-21-2003, 11:30 PM
what would you do if everytime you asked someone a question, they would repeat that question??

and ponder it a minute???

nymphette
09-21-2003, 11:32 PM
(okay, so that was thirty seconds, not a minute... blah on flood control.. :) )

i would not talk to anyone... it would get too annoying to hear what i ask over and over!!!!

what would you do if you S.O. started to talk in gibberish, and they didn't realize they were not speaking english anymore, and you could neve rhold a conversation with them again???

hammerquill
09-22-2003, 12:45 AM
First of all I'd try to talk to someone else to make sure it wasn't me hearing gibberish (getting aphasic) rather than them talking it...

What would you do if you developed a truly magnetic personality: tapes and harddrives getting erased, tvs and computer monitors screwing up when you're nearby, radios screeching, loose iron filings clinging to your skin...

VeronicasLovebug
09-22-2003, 01:10 AM
i would run up to a semi truck...and jump on it, attaching myself to the side of it...and travel the US jumping from semi truck to semi truck lol


what would you do if everytime you changed a lightbulb, after about the 5th time of you turning the light off and on, it would burn out again...

Cuilanië
09-22-2003, 03:23 AM
[No monkeys yet? I'm impressed! rofl]

I actually have a fixture that burns out bulbs super-quick... And we still haven't changed it yet. lol
But if it took only five times turning it on and off, I'd take it down and start using candles!


What would you do if you suddenly acquired an evil double who'd go around making people believe you're insane?

typeface
09-22-2003, 07:21 AM
I think I am the evil double!

What would you do if you were asked to think up a question that could end this post? :P

gwensmom
09-22-2003, 09:19 AM
go ask rustell what to write. She is pretty good at hard questions.


What would you do it you were still without power after Isabel and couldn't play chain games?

Sirius
09-22-2003, 09:28 AM
I would take a vacation. I, addict that I am, know that I can check my email from the middle of the Pacific ocean while on a Hawaiian cruise. So, I'd take a trip that included electricity.

(By the way, somehow I have missed this thread, hadn't seen it before. Magically I must have heard Gwensmom say my name and it brought me here! Creepy?)

What would you do if it was your responsibility to bring Monkeys to this chain game?

Seusomon
09-22-2003, 09:53 AM
I certainly would not shirk the responsibility, but I might deflect it slightly.

What would you do if giant prehistoric guinea pigs were camped on your doorstep, giving hugs and words of wisdom to everyone who approaches your home?

Cuilanië
09-22-2003, 10:19 AM
I'd move into a bigger house and turn it into a shrine. I'd get the visitors to create something for Nness, too. ;)


What would you do if there weren't any animals on Earth, humans excepted?

nymphette
09-22-2003, 10:23 AM
i would finally be able to turn my hubby into a vegetarian!!!! ;)

what would you do if you won $10,000,000 but found out the world was going to end tonight?? (slight rip-off from 'heathers')

kittymao
09-22-2003, 11:54 AM
hm.
Tell my BF to come over.
Buy a lot of delicious food and amazing bedding.
Then eat the food, and crawl to my fabulous, luxurious new bed.
Don't want to be awake when the world ends, and don't want it to end ALONE ...


What would you do if you lost you good hand?

Cuilanië
09-22-2003, 02:31 PM
AACK! Learn to use my other hand. I already can for some things, like eating. It would make interesting art. Not good, but interesting.


What would you do if you suddenly floated 3 inches from the ground?

Lilac
09-22-2003, 03:02 PM
Call David Blaine and say "HA! I can do it too!"


What would you do if you actually SAW a ghost...a real ghost...in your house?

luckythirteenxxx
09-22-2003, 03:05 PM
whip out the antique Ouija and get to work!!!

what would you do if your icky boss, upon finding out that you greatly enjoyed Champagne started calling you a "Sparkling Woman"????

kittymao
09-22-2003, 03:25 PM
start drinking beer.
While at work.
And make it a point to burp in his office every time I walk by.

what would you do if the Newbie you adopted turned into a Bad Egg?

Seusomon
09-22-2003, 04:56 PM
Write them out of my will. :angry:

What would you if your laundry got dirtier every time you washed it?

Sirius
09-22-2003, 06:40 PM
Well, I'd probably buy a new washer.

What would you do if monkeys took over France? (Happy Cuilanië?)

Lilac
09-22-2003, 06:47 PM
I would just refrain from going there ever again and let the French (and Cuilanie) deal with them. Well...then again...it might be an interesting thing to see, as long as I didnt have live there forever!

What would you do if you were having dinner at a friends house and found a roach in her spinach lasagna.

Qwerty
09-22-2003, 06:48 PM
I would tell her. :) I have no mercy when it comes to bugs.

What would you do if you had a condition that forced you to kick something every 5 minutes?

Sirius
09-22-2003, 06:51 PM
I'd kick the roach out of the Lasagna.


Okay...um...I'd stop eating it, and get sick. Really, weak stomache for those type of things. No polite try to eat around it so I don't embarrass her. It's the ol' get up screaming "Oh my God, there is A roach in my Food." To be quite honest we have friends whose house we WILL NOT eat at, because I am pretty sure that could happen every meal there.

As for the kicking. I'd probably start wearing shin pads, and I'd keep a ball around to kick.

What would you do if you found out you one the nervousness prize of having another member come and live with you?

Sirius
09-22-2003, 06:52 PM
Qwerty edited to fix the double response...so now my post makes less sense.

...

Lilac
09-22-2003, 07:03 PM
Oh God! Perpetual house guest! I don't like house guests! I suppose I would politely decline, and if that didnt work, I would just have to house the poor Nervousness member in my barn! LOL


What would you do if you found a cobra in your bed tonight?

DeathbyMoshPit
09-22-2003, 07:28 PM
Carefully pick it up, and slip it into my sister's bed (she's scared, I'm not.)


What would you do if you walked in and your mom was wearing total bondage gear and yelling at your father to come out of the bathroom so she could see if his thong fit right?

Sirius
09-22-2003, 08:05 PM
after i gouged out my eyes...really you just made me picture my wholesome parents this way...that was cruel...um...I'd call my stepfather, because he'd be a lot more interested in the situation than I was...

What would you do if you found a wallet, with identification and $1000 in it? Oh, the moral questions....

kittymao
09-22-2003, 08:44 PM
hm.
Give him back his wallet and state that he's very lucky a loyal and kind Nervousness girl found his wallet- any other person would have taken the money.

Then I'd bat my eyes and look as cute as possible. :blink:

What would you do if your computer turned off every twenty minuets for no reason ( welcome to my life.... )

Seusomon
09-23-2003, 01:34 AM
Buy another computer. Some things are just not open to discussion.

What would you do if giant prehistoric guinea pigs kept appearing on billboards and public access TV, despite being ignored by the mainstream media?

Cuilanië
09-23-2003, 09:05 AM
I'd set free my more eccentric side - if they don't notice the GPGPs, however will they notice me being openly and deliberately strange? *g* And maybe start my own independent tv station, dedicated to GPGP sightings.


What would you do if light became edible? (spin-off from a website I stumbled on today...)

Seusomon
09-23-2003, 09:29 AM
Eat a lot more light and a lot less food!

What would you do if you discovered glow-in-the-dark pentagrams on your bathroom wall? (really happened to me)

WindspiritWhimsies
09-23-2003, 11:38 AM
I would think that was cool and try to find more about how they got there and who left them there. (Do tell Seusomon!)

What would you do if you were a witness to a murder?

Lilac
09-23-2003, 12:17 PM
ACK! I would report it to the authorities, of course....unless the murderer actually saw me and threatened to murder my family if I told.

What would you do if Gorge W. Bush called you on the phone to just "chat."

kittymao
09-23-2003, 12:42 PM
Put up a decent conversation, but rattle him for his every mistake at every chance I can.
idiot.

what would you do if all of your teeth fell out at the same time?

pooshouse
09-23-2003, 01:26 PM
drink soup and butcher my dentist, who said they were fine. :ph34r:

What would you do if you were so disorganised you discovered you still had library books from 15 years ago?

Seusomon
09-23-2003, 01:44 PM
Not much. Pretty much life as usual, here. :wacko:

What would you do if your television suddenly burst into flames in the middle of the night?

luckythirteenxxx
09-23-2003, 01:53 PM
heh! I'd put the fire out and tell my SO *that* is what he gets for watching too many Law & Order re-runs!! LOL

What would you do if you for a Klondike bar?

Sirius
09-23-2003, 03:23 PM
If I had a Klondike bar? give it to Brian, I'm not a big fan of them.

What would you do if you discovered an abandoned bird on your back door step?

atomic_cocktail
09-23-2003, 03:43 PM
call the local animal shelter/ vet and bring it there to be fixed up or to be relased into the wild when approriate.


What would you do if publishers clearing house showed up to your house tomorrow morning?

Seusomon
09-23-2003, 04:29 PM
Jump up and down and laugh hysterically. YIPPEE!

What would you do the walls of your house began gradually shading to purple, just a little bit more each day?

Meika
09-23-2003, 04:44 PM
Set up a camera on a tripod at slow speed so I could capture everything on film.

What would you do if your house was 50 degrees or less no matter what you turned the thermostat to?

venus28976
09-23-2003, 06:37 PM
Bundle up with my warm blanket and call the repair company...Then be prepared for a long cold winter since I've been trying to get the repair company to come out for three months to clean the furnace....I bet it would take them twice as long to come out and fix it.

What would you do if you woke up one morning and discovered that the door to your bedroom wouldn't open and you were trapped in your room?

Lilac
09-23-2003, 07:58 PM
I'd climb out my bedroom window, down the big pine tree, come back in the house and remove my bedroom door.


What would you do if, while in a crowded elevator, you accidentally passed loud and obnoxious gas...and there was no way you could blame it on another?

Sirius
09-23-2003, 08:05 PM
laugh hysterically

What would you do if you, an over and extreme planner, agreed to go on a road trip without a plan, and two days before started itching to secretly plan because the anxiety of not knowing how you were going to spend the trip was too much to handle? Too specific?

What would you do if you had all of the missing LMAOs suddenly appear under your bed?

venus28976
09-23-2003, 08:24 PM
LOL.... That's my life these days. I had one missing LMAO that I don't remeber getting suddenly appear under my pile of art supplies. Apologize profusely, send the LMAO creator a RAOK, send it on to the next person and update the LMAO Page.

What would you do if you woke up suddenly in the middle of the night and found a French monkey standing on your bed watching you sleep and making monkey noises?

auntieemu
09-23-2003, 08:26 PM
Bring a bottle of Jack Daniels on the trip.

Are we talking of all the missing LMAO's of Nness? Whew. My bedroom has 10 foot ceilings, but I am betting that I would be nose to nose with it. After bumping my head and figuring out that I was up near the ceiling, I would slide down the pile towards the door. Then I would pick up and try to at least stack a few out of the way so I could open the door. I would identify that these were indeed the missing Nness LMAO's and I would take an armfull downstairs with me to my office. I would then contact the giant talking heads and report the event. I would make every effort to contact each LMAO owner as I worked through the pile - but would definately require postage help to get all the LMAO's back where they belong.

Edited for finding French Monkeys in my bedroom: I would nudge my DH into waking up and let him deal with it. Which should be a riot.

What would you do if you found a horse in your bedroom?

kittymao
09-23-2003, 08:28 PM
"aw! Tu es tres bonne! " I'd say.
And then I'd ask him to live with me ( in french of course!)
And I'm name him Michel, and give him a black and white striped shirt and a beret and feed him french fried bananas.
Wouldn't that be cuuuuuuuuuuuuute!?

eek! Same Time post!
Okay.
What would I do with a Horse in my Bedroom?
Uhm. Pretty much the same thign as the monkey.
Except speak in english and name him ed.

Okay.
What would you do with a pool-full of lime green jello?

venus28976
09-23-2003, 08:33 PM
I think I'd go for a swim. It might be kind of sticky but I think it would be fun...kind of like a mud bath.

WHat would you do if everyone in the world except you suddenly vanished?

Seusomon
09-24-2003, 08:55 AM
I'd probably enjoy it tremendously for the first month or so - then think about trying to reverse it, so I could have my friends and loved ones back.

What would you do if you woke up one morning and found you were the opposite gender?

Cuilanië
09-24-2003, 09:12 AM
I would be so wild - I've always wondered what it was like on the other side of the fence! I'd try to find out everything that was different and everything that's the same, and write a book about it.


What would you do if your refrigerator suddenly started to cook everything you put in it?
(Sometimes I have such a one-track mind... lol)

Seusomon
09-24-2003, 09:14 AM
Rejoice! (My oven is way too small)

What would you do if everyone started aging in reverse - growing gradually younger instead of older?

Cuilanië
09-24-2003, 09:21 AM
If I get to stay my own age, I'd enjoy having my parents, then my grand-parents be my age. Of course, then I'd have to be their parent... weird thought.
If I age in reverse as well, I'd enjoy my chilhood all the more, knowing what I know now.


What would you do if all the computers in the world turned into Lego-block constructions?

Sirius
09-24-2003, 09:31 AM
That made me laugh because my first thought was, I'd have to get Brian to stop taking them a part and rebuilding them -- he loves Legos. Then I realized I had to have my own computer that he can't touch because he always does the same thing with computers -- taking them a part and rebuilding them.

Well, I'd probably redecorate my office in a Lego theme. Oh, wait, again, my office is already decorated with Star Wars Legos sets.

So...nothing would change.

What would you do if you realized over the past few weeks that the person you chose to spend the rest of your life with had converted you into complete geekdom?

stargal1998
09-24-2003, 09:35 AM
I don't really have to think about that, as my BF is really more of a person that would stuff geeks into trash cans.
But I would probably keep a few cool friends and try to be the Geeks queen, because being the coolest geek is always easy... You just have to be able to talk about new bands, mtv or the latest friends epi... right??

What would you do if 'your son was at home, crying all alone on the bedroom floor...' sorry!

What would you do if you just found out that you have an older half sibling you never knew about?

Cuilanië
09-24-2003, 09:41 AM
I'd have a few pointed questions for my parents, like, "Why have you never told me this?!!" Then I'd try to build a friendship with that sibling. When I was a kid, I dreamed of having an older brother - or a twin sister... Me and my impossible yearnings! ;)



What would you do if aliens took over Earth and parked the survivors in a "native reservation" on the Moon?

Lilac
09-24-2003, 10:11 AM
Well, I probably would not be one of those survivors in the first place because I would fight those darn aliens to the death if they set foot on my little farm...so I guess I'd either be some gaseous vapor from being atomized by an advanced alien weapon or I'd be rotting somewhere on my farm...probably being eaten by my dogs. Ugh! Sorry...that was too gross!


What would you do if one of the members of Nervousness started stalking you?

Seusomon
09-24-2003, 10:16 AM
Put my trust in giant prehistoric ginuea pigs.

What would you do if scientists discovered you are one of only 5 people on earth to carry a recessive immortality gene? (if you mate with one of the others, you will have immortal children)

Lilac
09-24-2003, 10:23 AM
I would find out who these others were so that I could make sure NOT to breed with them! Nobody should be immortal. That would be awful loney!

What would you do if developed superpowers, like Superman or Wonderwoman?

Sirius
09-24-2003, 10:34 AM
Well I wouldn't spin around in circles to change into that silly outfit. I think I would use them for evil instead of good. Oh, I'm kidding, but I would keep them secret and use them to play friendly jokes on people. And if I could fly, I would travel a lot more, and go visit people and places around the world. And, maybe save the occaisionaly cat in the tree. ;)

What would you do if you inherited a golf course? (that may seem random to you, but I look out my office window at work all day watching people golf)

Lilac
09-24-2003, 10:38 AM
I'd kick out all the golfers, let nature take over and turn it into a wildlife reserve.

What would you do if you found out you were expecting septuplets?

Redandpinkdaisy
09-24-2003, 10:41 AM
I'd be really excited and really depressed at the same time. I'd be happy to have children, but not all at once, without any money.

Who would you pick up first: a hitchhiker of your sex, or one of the opposite sex ?

Sirius
09-24-2003, 11:02 AM
same sex. i'd feel less threatened by picking up another woman stranded on the road.

What would you do if you found out that trees and plants had souls?

Seusomon
09-24-2003, 03:39 PM
Nothing different. (I believe they do!)

What would you do if you started attracting spiders everywhere you went?

VeronicasLovebug
09-24-2003, 03:41 PM
I'd take off running and never stop lol :ph34r:


What would you do if your favorite shirt got a really large hole in it...i'm talkin the size of a football lol (i still wear mine :P)

Meika
09-24-2003, 04:08 PM
I'd either patch it up or wear a shirt underneath it.

What would you do if your neighbor had a dog that barked all night long?

Seusomon
09-24-2003, 04:11 PM
bark back.

What would you do if everyone in your family forgot your name?

VeronicasLovebug
09-24-2003, 04:14 PM
go somewhere, where everyone remembered my name :P


What would you do if you were stuck eating only 1 thing for the rest of your life?

Redandpinkdaisy
09-24-2003, 05:52 PM
I would make sure it was somethin damn good !!

what would you do if you peed your pants in public and it was really noticable ??

Sirius
09-24-2003, 05:59 PM
I'd go home, muttering all the way saying, "I am going to sue the makers of Depends, they promised this wouldn't happen!"

What would you do if...you looked out the window and saw elephants stampeding?

venus28976
09-24-2003, 06:06 PM
I'd get the hell out of the way.

What would you do if you discovered you had an identical twin?

Meika
09-24-2003, 07:04 PM
Wonder if she'd ever done something illegal that I could be blamed for.

What would you do if you woke up and found that your toes were missing?

atomic_cocktail
09-24-2003, 07:08 PM
thats a great question.... well id have to learn to walk again... and hope for plastic surgery... and I would be severly bummed... my little toesies... MIA


What would you do if you were voted the next president/prime minster? (or whatever they have in your country)

venus28976
09-24-2003, 08:48 PM
Well, I'd have to find myself some darn good advisors and I'd have a LOT of work to do what with the country the way it is, but I'd do the best I could and hopefully make some positive changes.

What would you do if you shrunk one foot overnight?

Redandpinkdaisy
09-25-2003, 09:11 AM
I'd start eating Miracle Grow in hopes to get that foot back - I'm short enough as it is !! :)

What would you do if your dog turned into a lizard ?

Lilac
09-25-2003, 09:16 AM
I'd freak out! That's like saying "what would you do if your child turned into a lizard" LOL My dogs are my babies! Anyhow...I'd take the lizard to the vet and insist that he SOMEHOW turn the lizard back into my beloved dog...and would probably end up being carted away by the men in the white coats because everyone would think that I was insane!

What would you do if the original Mona Lisa painting mysteriously ended up hanging on your wall?

Cuilanië
09-25-2003, 09:48 AM
Enjoy it for a week or two, snicker about the hype in the media over the "missing" Mona Lisa, then wrap it in garbage bags and duct tape, cover it in dirt, and turn it it for the reward, saying I found it in the woods - they'd never believe the truth, anyway! ;)


What would you do if you discovered your house was alive?

[typo - again]

Laugh hysterically. Hm...i think I've used that as my reaction before.... I would try to find out if anyone knew sign language. Yes, I would totally 100% interrupt the meeting to find out what was so important for a deaf grasshopper to start trying to communicate with my shoe in sign language.

If not - learn braille, buy a T-Shirt that says "I can't see, but I'm not deaf", get whatever adaptations are necessary to be able to run the computer and continue on with my writing. I'd adapt in whatever way was necessary in order to function in life.

creep out small children, never have to use the rearview mirror, impress people b walking backwards, all the usual party tricks....


What would you do DIFFERNTLY if you woke up and discovered the past year had been a dream (or nightmare)?

VeronicasLovebug
10-07-2003, 03:20 AM
well...that depends...i've had lots of bad happen...but then again...i have had quite a bit of good come from it. I would probably go back, and fix all the shit that has happened the past year...not make the same mistakes...and then i would hope that i would be able to come across veronica again since i met her within the past year...and well...she's wonderful :wub: so yeah :D :P



What would you do if you came home one day, and your apartment/house was completely empty(all the funiture, people, clothes, etc...all gone)?

Seusomon
10-07-2003, 12:39 PM
Get desparately upset, spend a lot of time complaining to the wrong people and getting frustrated with their not solving the problem, and then after a week or so just resign myself to gradually getting all new stuff.

What would you do if everytime you turned on the TV, it was people you know being interviewed - about you!

Cuilanië
10-07-2003, 12:43 PM
I don't know, really, I don't have a TV... But I'd probably die of terminal embarrassment, and not dare poke my nose outside. Wear a wig and glasses if I had to.

What would you do if someone had left with your coat? (I'm a bit miffed about this, ain't I? <_< )

Seusomon
10-07-2003, 12:47 PM
Commandeer several chain games about the coat incident, until it was out of my system.

What would you do if the free association threads seemed to be getting much less attention than they ought to?

Cuilanië
10-07-2003, 12:50 PM
Hack the forums so that every time someone wants to reply to a chain game, they end up in free association.
(I would like to mention to the BoD that I do NOT know how to do this. Don't ban me! LOL)


What would you do if all the people around you couldn't smile or laugh?

siafu
10-07-2003, 12:57 PM
i would ask them lots of questions until i figured out what it is that they do when they are happy. we would teach each other happy indicators, like thumbs up...it would turn out ok, even if we all looked like lurch.

what would you do if you accidentally sneezed on a very cool potential employer?

gwensmom
10-08-2003, 08:20 PM
Apologize profusely, hope that nothing disgusting was hanging out of my nose, and then leave and keep looking for a new job!


What would you do if someone was stalking you?

dorsia
10-08-2003, 09:33 PM
I'd look for an opportunity to sock them square in the face, then take out a restraining order.

...unless it turned out to be John Cusack who was stalking me. Then I'd take a slightly different approach. B)


What would you do if you were being stalked by a celebrity?

nymphette

i would hope it was harry connick jr. and then let him catch me and do with me what he will!!! if it wasn't him- get a restraining order and hope for the best....

AlienSpy

Offer you to stay for a couple of days with me and my guest from Belgium (who should be here any minute now). Only problem is she doesn't speak English, but I could translate! :D

Send it to you! Or at least call you for advice.


What would you do if your mother hated your husband?

Sirius
10-10-2003, 05:18 PM
Tell her to get over it. Lucky for me, my mother pre-approved of Brian, since he and I were friends first, my mom already knew him and had hinted about, "that nice boy Brian."

...but I have dated people that she did not approve of, and basically out stubborned her. Oh, Thanksgiving? I won't be able to make it because your glares make X uncomfortable. No big "let's all get together and talk about it" just a matter of, accept that the person is a part of my life and move on...

What would you do if you found out you are in the Matrix?

bluecrayon

What if you woke up and you were the opposite gender?

venus28976
10-10-2003, 11:31 PM
I'd momentarily freak out and then I'd decide to make the most out of the bizarre experience and explore the wonders of maleness.

What would you do if you were trapped in a dream and couldn't wake up but knew you were dreaming?

gwensmom

Sirius
10-11-2003, 06:09 PM
avoid my father


as we speak my father is squirrel hunting. he claims to not actually hunt them, but just goes for the trip, it's the only time all of his brothers get together. Last year when he went I went to toy stores, hobby stores, walmarts, and goodwills and bought all the stuffed squirrels I could find and put them all over his place for him to return home to.

What would you do if you came home to a house full of stuffed squirrels?

bluecrayon
10-11-2003, 06:16 PM

The person of your dreams is right over there, but you're with someone else! What would you do???

Cuilanië

What would you do if the only song you ever heard was a really cheesy one about you?

Seusomon
10-17-2003, 04:18 PM
Go around acting really cheesy myself. Why fight it?

What would you do if all your clothes started developing holes, broken zippers, lost buttons, broken laces, tears ... all at the same time?

Sirius
10-17-2003, 05:36 PM
Learn to use a sewing machine I suppose. Oh, who am I kidding, the last time a hem came out of a skirt it laid in a box for 6 months until my mother volunteered to fix it for me...but I can do her taxes for her!

What's the most annoying piece of clothing you own, and why haven't you gotten rid of it yet? You know the pants that are too snug, the bra that has the right strap that always falls off your shoulder....

gwensmom
10-17-2003, 08:26 PM
I hate clothes. I hate shopping for them, trying to find something to wear every day and all that washing, folding and putting them away. :angry: I know I would like clothes better if I lost some weight and actually looked decent in them.

But I do like broken in jeans, cotton knit things like t-shirts and sweatshirts, and flannel pj's and gowns. They have to be big so they don't touch me much. I was appalled when polyester got cool again.

The thing that annoys me the most is this unlined jacket I got that has cool fabrics and beading on it. It looked great in the store but it just doesn't hang right.



What would you do if you couldn't sleep because your throat hurt so bad?

Cuilanië
10-18-2003, 06:19 PM
Get up, make myself lemon tea with honey, go back to drink it in bed.
Read until I fall asleep. (Usually how I fall asleep, most nights.)


What would you do if you were the only active member in the forums for a week?

What would you do if the sky fell on your head one morning?

gwensmom
10-18-2003, 07:37 PM
If it didn't kill me I'd look up and try to see what was above the sky. Then start cleaning up the mess.

What would you do if your significant other cleaned out your bank account and disappeared?

VeronicasLovebug
10-18-2003, 09:56 PM

what would you do if you woke up one morning and your house/apartment was filled up w/ cats....so many that you had no room to even walk anywhere...

Sirius
10-18-2003, 10:31 PM
Open the door and get some of them outside, get a bigger litter box, and start calling places to come pick them up/find homes etc. Widget, the grumpy cat, would undoubtedly clear them out pretty quickly.

What would you do if you went on a girl's night out and came home at 9:30 because everyone was tired? (Other than realize you are old)

gwensmom
10-19-2003, 07:59 AM
I do that all the time! My sister and I used to have these 2 or 3 times a year and we came up with great ideas for activities that didn't last all night. Everyone went home early but nobody cared because they had fun.

So..I would just start planning another girls' night out and stock up on geritol.


What would you do if you were forced to go back in time and relive your jr. high school years?

BleedingGirl
10-19-2003, 10:12 AM
Well, consider I'm in my junior year of high school...(I assume when you say Jr. High you mean middle school.) It wouldn't be far away. but I was so shy and only had 1 friend. Seriously. So I would talk to more people and be more active in art club (I was lazy back then). I would ask out my crush that I had from kindergarden until 9th grade when he said i was too shy and innocent for him. *mumbles* Butthead. :angry: Hehe...

What would you do if you look on T.V. and realize everyone could see your life play out on all the channels?

Meika
10-19-2003, 12:25 PM
Turn the answerring machine on so I could screen the dozens of calls I'd surely get. I'd probably tell my Mom not to watch too because it would shock the daylights out of her. :lol:

What would you do if you woke up and you were a member of the opposite sex?

sarahkate
10-21-2003, 10:34 AM
Well...aside from the initial shock...and some crying ...and screaming....

I would go to my boss & tell him I am now a man...so I get more money right? (I don't know if I mean that to be funny........or depressing)

Then I would hunt down my boyfriend & befriend him....(I am assuming he doesn't know the male version of me is me) and find out what he really talks about when he's with the guys.



What would you do if you were told that you had to choose one and only one meal to eat for the rest of your life?

neosho
10-21-2003, 07:34 PM
well duh, i would go out and eat everything i LOVE until i couldn't possibly consume another bite...and then i'd kill myself.


so, what would you do if you suddenly realized you had the power of invisibility whenever you wanted it?

kittymao
10-21-2003, 07:41 PM
being the paranoid galoot I am, I would walk into a roomful of friends while visible, hang out a bit, walk out, go invisible and then listen to what they had to say about me.

Oh, and go all Ghost-like. You know, throw things, be all spooky and freak people out. That would be SO MUCH EFFING FUN!

What would you do if you were told you were being Transfered ( by your job) to Africa?

Cuilanië
10-22-2003, 03:28 AM
I'd get my vaccinations, pack up and go! :)


What would you do if AlienSpy informed you that :
- you are really a camouflaged alien,
- you were given for adoption as an infant, to be raised by humans,
- the experiment is now complete,
- they will take you back to your planet to be analyzed and tested?

AlienSpy
10-22-2003, 02:12 PM
haha! Well obviously I can't answer this... :P But good one Cuilanië!

Julie

sarahkate
10-22-2003, 02:17 PM
heh! I will take this one...

well...if Julie told me I was an alien first I would ask her if I could still access Nervousness on my home planet...

if she said no....I would run like hell & hide (I can't tell you where...in case this does ever happen *looks at Julie...and wonder if she really IS an Alien Spy*)

if she said yes...then I would say "Hell Yeah! Let's go!" and I would zoom off to my new planet & get all my little alien friends hooked on nervousness. Wahooo!


What would you do if you opened your closet & a flock of flying monkeys spilled out?

Sirius

what would you do if you discovered your job was obsolete?

gwensmom
10-22-2003, 03:44 PM
It would actually be a good thing because it would mean that no one needs social services any more! I would just stay home for a while.

What would you do if you woke up with a sore throat, cramps and lower back pain on the day you had to give a party for 45 senior women?

Seusomon
10-22-2003, 04:00 PM
Call some friends to come and help, and try to relax!

What would you do if you passed Cuilanie's posting total, and then received a PM from the Nervousness master computer allowing you access to the secret pages where all the information on the world domination plan is being kept, but find you can only share about what you've discovered on the chain games, where no one will believe you anyway?

Sirius
10-22-2003, 05:28 PM

I'd post bits and pieces in each of the chain games, so that nervousers had to put it together as a mystery and then they'd believe it because it was something they figured out.

What would you do if....you woke up with an exclamation point tattooed on your forehead?

nymphette
10-23-2003, 01:18 AM
i would go and see paul jeffries, and ask him to turn it into the rune 'algiz'... and then hope for the best...

Cuilanië
10-23-2003, 05:02 AM

You'll all be sorry.

nymphette
10-23-2003, 07:12 AM
muddle on, because it happens a lot unfortunately... i can be tired and exhausted, but still not sleepy at all... and unable to rest... i suffer from two kinds of insomnia chronically- i have trouble falling asleep and i also wake frequently.... it also get sworse under pressure or stress, or when my depression worsens... (which lack of sleep makes even worse...) you don't get 'used to it' (my husband asks aren't you used to an hour's sleep a night??? that's all you ever get, aren't you used to it???' like you can get used to feeling like that!!!) but you accept it... i dont' tend to let it stress me out anymore... i am grateful for what sleep i get and when i ge tmore than 3 hours a night, hurrah!!!!! :o

what would you do if everything and one in the world stopped all of a sudden but you, and you had the power to do that when you wanted to??? ( i vaguely remember a twilight zone episode liek that.... with a nuclear bomb....

10-23-2003, 07:17 AM
I'd use the extra time to create art whenever the inspiration strikes, instead of waiting until I get home and the burst of creativity has passed anyway.


What would you do if your evil twin (which we'll assume you have for the sake of argument) hovered around you grinning all the time, but won't tell you why?

Seusomon
10-23-2003, 09:19 AM
I'd be really frustrated and angry for a long time, then probably eventually learn to ignore him and live with it.

What would you do if you knew someone was planning on leaving clues about the world domination conspiracy on the chain game threads, but you had no idea which thread or even how to recognize a clue if you saw it?

gwensmom

Ask the googlebot- he sees everything on this site!

What would you do if the googlebot pm'd you about doing an exhange?

Sirius
10-23-2003, 12:15 PM
I'd make it commit to sending first...because I don't really trust Googlebot much.


What would you do if...you had to decide how to carve the family pumpkin? (Oh, living on the edge there, I wanted to hear what creative ideas you'd have being artsy folks and all)

Seusomon

I think I'd get away from faces entirely, and do some intricate kind of maze-like design, filigrees all over!

Cuilanië
10-23-2003, 04:32 PM

medeous
10-23-2003, 04:48 PM
be extremely weirded out since none of them like each other and they are all currently married, but not to each other.

what would you do if your ex-spouse asked you to be the legal guardian of the child of his/her current marriage?

sarahkate
10-24-2003, 02:16 PM
I would be very confused...but depending on the situation I suppose I might consider it.



What would you do if your boss gave you a year off (paid!) ?? What would you do with all of your free time?

kittymao
10-24-2003, 03:52 PM
Hm.
This is actually difficult, considering my job is now only one day a week, at $7 an hour. But for sake of argument and reality, we will assume the 5days/8 hours deal.

I would make a stopmotion film. I would buy all the supplies and the software and the camera and would MAKE A FILM! ohhh... I'd love to do that.... *drool* Probably of something abstract, but hey! That's fun!

Hm. If you woke up one day and were no longer yourself, who would you WANT to wake up being?

janeboston

[hard question for me]

janeboston
10-24-2003, 06:39 PM
