Too old

You know I'm not letting that slide. What's the real answer, question-dodger?

22. I didn't bloom until senior year when I ditched a bad relationship and got popular.

Tell us a story about getting your heart ripped right out of your chest and stomped on by a chick.

I just wrote this shit up and accidently deleted it. No I gotta write this crap up again. And its really boring melodrama BS.

Ok. Parties are best friend, Jim... our friend, Dwight... and girl, Pam. Clearly names were changed. Jim introduces me and Dwight to Pam and Jim lets us know he's in love with her. And I mean gaga. I'm pretty gaga over a girl in college so we're really bonding over this because our two "relationships" could be mirror images of each other where the girl seems interested but then there's always some roadblock. Pam and I strike up a good friendship over the phone and internet and on the occasion that we see each other. Pam basically fits will into our group of friends. She's smart, funny, and cool. And then she starts dating Dwight. Typical high school BS. Dwight knew Jim was in love with her. There's anger, fights, Dwight gets cut off. Jim stops speaking to Pam, but I keep speaking to her. We maintain a separate friendship where she shares how bad she feels about this and all. Given enough time Pam and Dwight break up and Dwight and Jim start to make amends. Jim starts dating a friend of Pam's and the group as a whole is starting to come back together a little. And then we hook up. Pam and I talk and we determine we're into each other, but we also agree that we know how this will play out and neither of us wants that. Besides losing friends neither one of us wants to hit Jim with the same blow that wrecked him once already. So we both agree to not do it and in our efforts to kill the feelings we basically kill our friendship all together. It actually wrecked me pretty bad at least in part because that girl I was gaga over was making my life miserable and without realizing it the relationship with Pam had become something stable I wanted and was glad to have as an alternative. Instead I sank 100% into the fucked up relationship there.

Like I said. Boring, cliche, melodrama, BS.

How far will the 2009 Yankees go?

I see them and the Rays as the class of the AL assuming nothing goes wrong. Of course a lot of stuff can go wrong. They should compete and I can see them beat anyone. I'll say a return to the playoffs.

If you could travel back in time to the end of October and replace Brain Cashman what would you have done this offseason?

You know, I don't think I have much to complain about or change. I wouldn't want to give CC those years but I can't argue with getting him. I wouldn't want to sign AJ, but off the top of my head I don't know who else you sign and you have to sign someone. I don't want Lowe at what the Braves gave him any more or less than Burnett's deal. Sheets is the X factor as I'd love to have him on the cheap, but I can't disagree with the Yanks' doctors (or EVERYONE's doctors) on the guy's health, never having seen his records.

I probably would have gone after Dunn instead of Teix but that would have been a bad call. Teix would have ended up in Boston and the 1B Defense would be crap. I'd love to have Dunn but I don't know where to put him.

I'd move Nady as soon as possible. I would have pursued Peavy and made Hughes and Cano available in the right deal. Hughes, Cano, Kennedy, + for Peavy & Gonzalez skipping Teix and adding Hudson would have been something I played at. But again, that would have allowed Teix to go to Boston.

So no real complaints. Cash moves Nady for something of value and I won't have much of anything to complain about.

How many years of Jets suckitude would you trade for the next Yankee's World Series?

I think I want to see a Jets Superbowl more than a Yankee WS. The Yankee "drought" REALLY doesn't bother me in the slightest. I got 4 WS in 5 years. I never imagined that level of success and I haven't gotten one championship out of the Knicks or Jets. I'm pretty comfortable with the return on my investment as a Yankee fan.

When will the Knicks get back to the playoffs? Win a Title?

Next year with Lebron, duh.

Never.

If you were Lebron where would you play in 2010?

NY, duh.

I don't know, I haven't paid enough attention to his suitors. For example I have no idea if LA has the cap room to add him and have a super team. But with Cleveland with the record they have I'd consider staying there rather than trying to turn around NY or NJ.

Would you rather cheer for the Mets or the Giants?

Mets. I'm a bigger Yankee fan but I really have nothing against the Mets. I've cheered for them on many occassions. Its what Dev hates about me.

If you had to choose a college team to follow which one? (football and basketball)

I follow Notre Dame in football and St Johns in basketball. But with both struggling so much in for awhile my casual fandom has been pushed back further.

Wait, what the fuck? The Storm are 10-5?!?! Guess I better start paying attention. #4 UConn tonight? Cool, just in time to get unreasonable expectations if they have a good showing.

Favorite Disney Movie?

Three Amigos?

Ever been to a Disney Park?

Yeah, the family took a number of trips down to Orlando when I was younger. Always enjoyed it very much. Disney did a great job of making a full experience. For a kid living in the projects the amusement park was almost secondary to staying in a "Villa" in a suburban area with shit like swimming pools available.

Ever been to Florida?

See above.

Why aren't you helping those poor people whose plane crashed in the Hudson?

[National Champion Chris Cole]

I'll flip the question then. Would you trade a last place season from the Yankees for a Jets Super Bowl? How many of those would you trade for 1 Jets Super Bowl?

Same question with Knicks instead of Jets.

Because I was busy calming my mother down after she called me frantic because my sister took off from LaGuardia on the same airline minutes before the crash. Even after determining it wasn't the same plane she was spooked.

I'd trade at least 1 for each. I'd want Knicks more than Jets. I enjoy basketball 100x more than football so I'd love watching that season/playoff run. Plus I saw so many heartbreaking ends to those Riley/Van Gundy seasons that I just would love to see a championship. I'd trade at least 3 last place finishes for the Knicks, I think. Maybe more. For the Jets? I dunno, 2, maybe 3. With the Knicks its really my fandom that's the major factor. No basketball fans annoy me nor do I really hate any other teams. But with Jets/Yankees its basically "Do I want Red Sox assholes and Yankee Haters to give me shit or Pats assholes and Giants fans to give me shit?" Its basically 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other. But I'd still swap a couple of seasons of shit eating for the Yanks to get one Superbowl.

[Courtney]

I'm sorry if I repeat any questions.

1) What would you honestly do if someone broke into your house? Confront them with a baseball bat or hide like a little girl?

2) Who's your favorite Beatle? Least favorite? Why?

3) Does licking envelopes bother you at all?

4) Do you play chess? Are you any good?

5) If you had to fuck one guy from PH, who would it be and why?

[National Champion Chris Cole]

Do you ever read the OOWF character called Lucky? What are your thoughts?

1) What would you honestly do if someone broke into your house? Confront them with a baseball bat or hide like a little girl?

Honestly? I think I'm stupid enough to confront them. I have the bats placed... I know I THINK I'd confront them. But yeah, I think I'm just stupid and macho enough to actually do it even though I KNOW the proper response would be to hide like a little girl and call the cops. Its not like its the first time I let that stupid macho side of me take over the common sense part.

2) Who's your favorite Beatle? Least favorite? Why?

As My Guitar Gently Weaps. I love that song. Why? I don't know. I just prefer the sound to a lot of the McCartney or Lennon songs. Least favorite? Uhhh... Strawberry Fields Forever maybe. There's probably a pop song or a Sgt Pepper's son I like less but I just never liked that one at all. I don't think.

3) Does licking envelopes bother you at all?

Not really, aside from the taste and dryness after awhile.

4) Do you play chess? Are you any good?

I have been known to play, I absolutely suck. Its weird because I THINK I should be better at it. I'm good at looking at the big picture and thinking a few moves ahead. I do that with projects and the like all the time. People always get a kick out of me during some kind of moving project or home thing because they'll watch me stand there for 5 minutes just staring while I play out the scenarios in my head and see what the best course is. Yet somehow I can't do that with chess no matter how hard I try.

5) If you had to fuck one guy from PH, who would it be and why?

Hmm... uhhhhh... BC because I'm pretty sure he's a girl anyway.

Do you ever read the OOWF character called Lucky? What are your thoughts?

I try to follow it when I can but its hard to do without following ALL Fire posts... and ALL Dev posts... and ALL Tommy posts... and ALL Mayhems... and every time I start I just realize that "Follow Fire/Lucky" means "Follow OOWF" if only because its my nature to want the whole picture.

I largely approve of Fire's characterization from what I've seen. She's asked me opinion on stuff from time to time and I've asked her to try and keep it fairly workable if I ever do decide to join with the character. From what I've seen Dev writes me as an asexual cowardly nerd which is no surprise. Originally when Fire asked if she could use "me" I made it clear that Dev and Tommy weren't allowed to write me, but Moose wouldn't uphold that. Moose is an asshole.

There have been a few things that almost got me to join because I liked how I would play off the character. I almost joined just to do stuff with Ziggy when his character was kidnapping mine.

[National Champion Chris Cole]

If you are reading it anyway you might as well join and post a few times.

If you join will it be in a big angle where you have a spiff with Fire and then have a grudge match to win your way to an OOWF contract? That would be cool.

[Courtney]

Dude you obviously can't read. I didn't ask you for your favorite beatles song. Who is your favorite Beatle? As in your answer should be John, Paul, George or Ringo.

[Lucky]

Well I don't really read. I read occasional parts but not regularly and I really don't have a clear idea on what's going on. If I ever did start reading regularly then I probably would, at the very least, contribute a little as Fire's valet.

And yeah, the rough idea was some kind of falling out with Fire, Dev, and their group. But its never been more than casual talk so its never really developed.

Wow. You're absolutely right. What the fuck is wrong with me?

George is my favorite because I prefer his sound. I kind of hate Paul because I dislike his sound and hate his whoring ways but I guess in fairness he's probably done more good stuff than Ringo.

On occasion. I enjoy it.

B. If so, what are your favorites to cook? To eat?

I like seasoning a good steak. I've been working on my lasagna the last couple of years and am working on a sauce. A nice and easy cooking job is sausage and peppers. Always a good and easy meal.

186a. Do you like sushi?
187. What's the weirdest thing you have ever eaten on sushi? Did you like it?

Never had. Don't care for seafood.

188. Weirdest thing you ever ate period? Did you like it?

I'm sure there's something but I can't think of it. I'm a bit of a picky eater in terms of I like to eat what I know I like, but I don't mind trying new stuff. I had these horrible Asian jelly treat things. Like jello in individual wrappers. My roommate liked them and swore by them. But they slide down your throat in a very uncomfortable way. And then I was informed that the feeling is exactly the feeling of swallowing cum. It was not enjoyable.

138. What is one food that you would evangelize that most people haven't tried but should?

I've found a reuben is less popular than I thought it was. That's amazing. But I don't think its what you're looking for. But its really all I can think of. I kind of like Curry Fries.

Sure. I love the area but I'd move if there was a reason. SoCal certainly sounds inviting but I imagine I could live in most any metropolitan city in America and plenty of suburban areas. I just don't want natural disasters. I'm not living anywhere where I need a "routine" for hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes or whatever. That's shits fucked up.

Favre: Bad luck or huge mistake? And will he return next year?

I'm not enough of a football fan to make a great judgment but from what I've gathered he basically did what you should expect. I don't buy this bullshit that we should have hung onto Pennington or that HE alone won 10 games for the Dolphins, so whatever. Pennington's time with the Jets was tumultuous and they needed to turn the page. When I asked people about him before the season the same people who said he was an upgrade then are the same people who now say the Jets were idiots for downgrading from Pennington because Pennington is super awesome. So whatever. Favre is Favre. As for next year, can the Jets do better? If not then he might as well return. Will he? Who knows.

Who will win the BCS next year?

I don't know and I couldn't possibly care.

Roger Clemons: Guilty or not?

He's probably guilty. I have no idea to what degree he's guilty. How many of those years he used, how much of the numbers are affected, how much difference it would have made anyway. The Red Sox fans who want to tell us how he was done in '96 and only bounced back with roids are full of shit but they've been singing that bitter and obsessed tune for a decade. So no idea what impact it had.

Now ask me if I care or if I think he's guilty of anything that matters? Because then the answer is no.

What's your favorite area of New York?

Downtown Manhattan. Hell's Kitchen, Chelsea, Greenwich Village, Washington Square Park, SoHo, the Bowery, etc. Its where I grew up and I've yet to find an area with more to offer or simply a nicer place to hang out and chill.

I'm reasonable, you're reasonable. Why is it we never agree on ANYTHING?

Who are you?


EDIT: "dragon" is "dragonmak", a former OO/Punster who was an original member of the C&B Baseball league. He was a Houston native and I guess he might have had some Clemens love, although I don't particular recall it.
