OK, color me curious. You mentioned slight morphophilia, but that can refer to any of a number of different archetypes (obese, dwarfism, giantism, anorexic). To which does your statement refer?

[Habs]

I feel like going all Byrnes on you...

Have you read my spotlight?

What suprised you themost about my spotlight!

What questions would you like me to ask you?

oh and Byrnes, it's all in good fun, don't go starting a poll or nothing! Oh and Demko, like I said all in good fun

[Byrntrigan]

Really Dave?

I've never been that sensitive.






and BEHOOOLLLLDAA THA POOOWEEER OF SHEPARDDD"S PIIIIIEEYA!

[Habs]

Oh you DO NOT want to go there John!



MTA So you like pie?

[Spinch]

RedDog. What is the most surprising thing you've learned from the 10 months of PH's Q&A with James Lipton?

How much ass Tommy's had in his life. Dayum.

4. Favorite swear word other then sonofabitch?

Fuck.

R. I'm paying for a tattoo of any size anywhere on your body from my artist. What do you get and where?

Right shoulder blade, but I'm torn between a dragon of some type or the Spy Vs. Spy guys.

A. Do you cook?

Poorly. My girlfriend is a FAR better cook than I am.

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

I love to grill-- burgers and steaks are my favorites to prepare. I also make a mean creamy chicken parmesean. To eat... I love food. There's really only one kind of food that I'll turn down (melon).

186a. Do you like sushi?

Love it.

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

An entire baby octopus, and I hated it. I'm all for calimari, but that's ridiculous. Give me unagi any day over that.

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

Probably that. Second would be ostrich. The ostrich was tasty.

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

It isn't exactly a food, but buttermilk. I freaking LOVE to drink buttermilk, and I think that if most people drank it with an open mind they'd eventually learn to enjoy it. (My mom drank it as a child thanks to my great grandma, who lived through the Depression.)

OK, color me curious. You mentioned slight morphophilia, but that can refer to any of a number of different archetypes (obese, dwarfism, giantism, anorexic). To which does your statement refer?

I like chubby chicks. Curves are awesome. Note that I didn't flat-out say "Morbidly Obese"... that's just scary.

...but that's a story for another time...

I leave, spend the next day wondering what the fuck I had just done, she came back that night pleading forgiveness, and even though the warning signs were there I took her back. Big mistake... but that's a story for another time.


Wrong!!!!! Keep going, my Thursday morning is slow and Boston lost.... [/quote]

OK, so. I get back to Utah and we do the long-distance thing... she and I talk regularly online and on the phone, and she says that she considers moving to Utah to be with me. I'm merrily being strung along here but don't realize things. She suggests we spend Valentine's day together and that I should get ready for my Valentine's gift and that I should get her something. February rolls around and I fly out to Vegas to visit her (and more importantly The Parents). She shows up at The Parent's place in a ratty T-shirt with her hair undone and no makeup, which is weird for her. We exchange gifts (She was obsessed with frogs, and I dropped a good $60 on a stuffed frog from Build-A-Bear Workshop that was wearing clothes similar to what I generally wore at the time... and on a side note, there are few things that make you feel more stupid than buying something from Build-A-Bear) and she gives me... about ten bucks in boysenberry coffee that she ordered by mail from Knott's Berry Farm.

She was acting sketchy in general, not touching me, and I'm wondering what the fuck is going on. We watch a movie (I don't remember what it was) and she says that she'll call me the next day. I waste my ENTIRE next day at home waiting for a call rather than going out, gambling, and getting wasted. On the next morning, I borrow Dad's car (since she doesn't know it) and I drive to her apartment. I knock on the door, and she opens it in a robe... and I see a naked guy sprinting into the bathroom. She talks about how he's "just her friend" that spent the night and was getting out of the shower, how I was taking things too seriously and misinterpreting what she was saying (although I don't know how the FUCK you can misinterpret 'I want to move to Utah to be with you'), and blah blah blah. I basically say "whatever" and leave, taking the "just a friend" thing at face value because I am the most naieve person in the universe. Three blocks later, I put two and two toegther, start unleashing a torrent of obscenities and pounding on the steering wheel in rage, get back home, and this scene transpires.

Mom: "So, what happened with Rachel?"
Me: "Fucking whore was cheating on me."
Mom (laughing): "I called tha- I mean, I'm so sorry!"
Me: "Thanks for caring so much about your son."

It's great to have loving and supportive parents, isn't it? The ONLY good thing about that trip was that I rebounded the next day and won $60 on a penny slot machine.

Have you read my spotlight?

Yes I have.

What suprised you themost about my spotlight!

The Steak Tartare thing. I've never had the balls to try it (or, for that matter, been in a restaurant that serves it).

What questions would you like me to ask you?

That's a hard one... maybe something about board games? Shit, I don't know.

[Spinch]

Also: Pie is awesome.

[Byrntrigan]

Hells yes it is awesome.

[Habs]

Do you play board games?

What are your favorite?

Any funny stories associated with a board game?

What would be the best board game to play a strip version of?

[Spinch]

Do you play board games?

Why yes, I do!

What are your favorite?

Carcassonne, Settlers of Catan, Memoir '44, and BattleLore.

Any funny stories associated with a board game?

Hmm... once I got wasted and tried to play Stratego?

What would be the best board game to play a strip version of?

Any auction-based game like Ra, Power Grid, or Alhambra (which I'm sure most people have never heard of) lends itself well to strip versions.

This is very true. It has been noticed and appreciated. You have caught a lot of shit and you have almost always taken it in good humor.




Spinch, did you notice that I used one of your OOWF matches in my PotY showdown with Moose? I just replaced your name with mine.

Was that cheap?

Yes yes it was. I never would have done that; therefore I should have beaten Lou in the PotY showdown!

[Lou]

Spinch, do you think with everything the French have either surrendered, or just plain lost, they'd be used to it by now?

Also Habs, does "Any Given Sunday" ring a bell?

Modified this one and the last because I noticed I was calling you by your OOWF name.

[Spinch]

Spinch, did you notice that I used one of your OOWF matches in my PotY showdown with Moose? I just replaced your name with mine.

Considering that when I used to write matches I just looked for recaps of famous matches and changed names and wording, not at all.

Spinch, do you think with everything the French have either surrendered, or just plain lost, they'd be used to it by now?

The thing is, for as much as they've lost, they continue to make other gains. Plus they kill pirates dead, and you can't knock that. The only native French person I knew, when confronted with a similar question, simply said "Who cares when you've got wine like ours?"

Modified this one and the last because I noticed I was calling you by your OOWF name.

Sadly, my OOWF name and my real nickname are one and the same. I couldn't think of a good character name when I joined the OOWF so I just threw my name in, it got used, and it's too late to retcon everything. I ran an angle where I was trying to change my name to Voldsohmet, but that fell flatter than Keira Knightley's chest.

[salmonjunkie]

Spin Hansen and Donovan Viper never really got a good feud going in the OOWF. If Viper came back and feuded with Spin, how would you write the feud?

Does It ring a bell? DOES IT RING A BELL? You bet it rings a bell those bastards stole one of my best speeches EVAR and I go zero royalty out of it!!!!

MTA And I'm not French, I'm FRENCH CANADIAN! You would think that Lou would have gotten that by now, right?

[Spinch]

Spin Hansen and Donovan Viper never really got a good feud going in the OOWF. If Viper came back and feuded with Spin, how would you write the feud?

Viper would come back unexpectedly and interfere in a match for a title he hasn't won yet... trying to become the third Grand Slam Champion. GMtR sees this is a money-making opportunity and immediately puts Viper in a championship match at the next PPV for that title... a match that had already been booked with Spin taking on the champion. Spin gets put into a match against a jobber, and what was mild bitterness about the feud that he and Viper had over the Onslaught belt becomes out-and-out rage. He interferes in the match SEVERELY beating Viper-- enough that he's out for a few shows, which is a rarity in the OOWF. Viper wins the match anyway by some nefarious means, but Viper swears revenge anyway. What follows is a series of increasingly brutal matches that culminate in a scaffold match for whatever title it was .

Who is your favorite wrestler?

Mick Foley. I always liked Mankind, and I learned to like Foley even more after reading his first book.

If you were a wrestler, what would be your finishing move? Your pose? Your ring name?

A Running Fisherman's DDT and the Shattered Dreams... because really, who isn't amused by a running kick to the nads? My winning pose would be an obnoxious bow with a flourish, and my name? The Aristocrat.

What is your favorite wrestling memory?

The first (and only) time I've seen RAW live was at Raw Roulette 2 in Salt Lake City. I saw Stevie Richards hurt his neck, Lita v. Victoria in a steel cage, Sgt. Slaughter(!!) wrestling, and Trish Stratus in a Bra and Panties match.

What is your least favorite movie of all time?

The Perfect Storm. It's completely predictable, boring, and ended the way that everyone figured it would end.

If you could be any kind of pro athlete, what would you be, what would be your position, and what would be your number?

I'd be a hockey defenseman brought in mainly as an enforcer. I'd wear either 83 (my birth year) or 22 (same as Claude Lemieux, if I'm gonna be a dirty-playing brawler).

Describe the hottest girl you've been with.

5'8", long brown hair and blue eyes, a 40D chest, and the most amazing smile you'll ever see in your life.

Describe the ugliest girl you've been with.

5'10", red hair,surprisingly small breasts for someone that more than likely weighed around three-fitty, and had really bad teeth. Craigslist is pure evil.

Who is your favorite band/artist?

I've been a die-hard Rush fan since I was in fourth grade. They Might Be Giants and Seether are my second two.

Best concert you’ve ever been to?

Flogging Molly at the Tabernacle in Atlanta earlier this year. Absolutely amazing live, kept up energy for a long set, and the lead singer pounded Guinness like nobody's business.

Do you own a digital camera?

Doesn't everyone these days?

If so, what is your favorite photo that you've taken with it? Post it.

(It was done on a timer, but I'm still the one who set it, damn it all!)

Also, were you ever an Eagle Scout?

I was in the Scouts but never hit got past Second Class because I never got my swimming merit badge. I had all of the other requirements for everything up to Star taken care of.

What questions did you think you were going to be asked?

The classics-- Firewoman's Dungeon, boob description, et cetera.

What is the funniest incident you have been involved with? Scariest incident?

The funniest incident was actually a Scout related one-- some rocket surgeons decided it would be cool to throw a butane lighter into the fire. All it did was make a slight "pop" sound, so everyone leaned in wondering why it didn't explode... and then it did. I was the only guy there without singed eyebrows.

The scariest is when the psycho ex was trying to get me to talk to her in the middle of the night, knocking on the doors and windows of Grandpa's place. I was convinced that she was gonna pull some Fatal Attraction shit on me.

If you were convicted of treason, how would you want to be killed? It can be ANY way...

Death by Food Roulette. A menu is given to me with the six signature dishes from the world's six most renowned chefs. One of the six is poisoned. I choose from the menu, eat, and if it isn't poisoned I get another choice the next night. If I survive the first five, I get a new six. Continue until I pick wrong.

What one grammatical / spelling thing I do bothers you the MOST?

To be honest, I can't really see anything that bugs me too much. You don't misuse apostrophes, you spell words correctly (for the most part)... you get a pass.

What do you think of the questions you have been asked as you are almost done?

I've had a blast answering them all, and in some strange way I feel more confident about posting in the non-OOWF forums.

Yella. What questions would you have asked you if you were asking questions?

I'm surprised that no one has asked me what my favorite books / authors were, but aside from that I can't think of anything.

What's the most surprising thing you've learned from these Q&A dealies thus far?

I hit this one earlier-- the number of women that Tommy's been with.

478. What's the most surprising thing you learned about me from my award winning showcase ?

That you're a Weird Al fan! I've always wanted to see him live.

.1. I'm coming to visit. What is the best place to eat that is special to your area (that is a area specialty, or shit I ain't getting in Chicago)?

A barbecue place in one of the Atlanta suburbs... Dreamland BBQ. It's the best barbecue I've had in my life. (Note that I didn't say The Varsity... their hot dogs are WAY overrated).

.2. What are we gonna do?

Tour the CNN building, hit the World of Coke (which has an absolutely enormous tasting room at the end of the tour), snag a burger at The Vortex, visit the record stores in Little Five Points, and get a beer at Taco Mac or Brick Store.

1. Three articles of clothing you can't live with out
2. What do you wear to sleep?
3. Boxers or Briefs
4. Okay, so I see where you'd take Byrne. Where would you take me. And hey, I somehow got confused. Where do you live these days?

[Spinch]

Three articles of clothing you can't live with out

1. A green linen shirt I got from Old Navy a few years ago.
2. A brown T-shirt with Hank Hill on the front that says "No gut, no glory" that I've had forever.
3. A green T-shirt that has an anthropomorphic knife on it that says "Hey, kids! Put me in your enemies!"

What do you wear to sleep?

Boxers, and usually by the end of the night the dog has draped himself over my leg.

Boxers or Briefs?

Boxers.

Okay, so I see where you'd take Byrne. Where would you take me. And hey, I somehow got confused. Where do you live these days?

I'm living in Duluth, GA, home of... lots of nearly-empty strip malls. Oh, and the Gwinnett Gladiators. Woo! First off, we'd have to visit RuSan's... a great local sushi place in Atlanta that does a nice unagi kari-kari roll and makes a great show any time someone orders a sake bomb. From there, we'd glance briefly at the Olympic Centennial Park on our way to the Georgia Aquarium, which is the world's largest. From there we'd go to the Center for Puppetry Arts (which may or may not be awesome), and then microbrews at Five Seasons North.

Best Star Trek ship?

I've always had a soft spot for Next Generation-era Romulan Warbirds... but if we're talking Enterprise, it's gotta be the Enterprise from The Original Series.
