New Social Thread

I thought about switching the dwarf and Potter with Alien and Predator, both on my side. The first briefing would be quite comical. "friends?" *shakeshand*. But I need to keep Snooki to satisfy them. I think she has lower standards then, let's say, Kirsten Dunst who I'm in love with. I shouldn't be selfish during a zombie apocalypse.
 
I'm taking Gandalf, The Doctor, and Emma Watson. Gandalf for power and zombie-ass kicking, The Doctor so he can break into buildings and safes and steal shit, and Emma so she can cook me food and have sex with me. All three are great for intellectual conversations as well.
 
I'd want The Punisher, Amber Heard, Rambo, Ivan Drago and Arwen Undómiel.

That's 5, but some lists on blogs have five so it's ok.

The Punisher and Rambo can shoot at them, Ivan can beat them when we run out of Ammo, Amber will get boned to kingdom come. I don't think Arwen can die, so that should help in some way. Rambo can fly a helicopter with us all in it or something, preferably a Mil Mi24 Krokodil or something.

I admit neither alien, predator or snooki are suitable to discuss art and politics over a cup of tea.
 
Amber might be able to do that. She isn't a character though, so I don't know if she counts. Rambo can be a tea party republican.
 
My team would be Septimius Severus, Niccolo Machiavelli and The Master.

I say the Master and not the Doctor because I need people who won't feel guilty about committing mass genocide.
 
I never undertood how Kirsten Dunst was attractive let alone hot. Side note. I probably jerked off to Shania Twain in my teens more than anyone woman. In her prime she's one of the hottest women alive.
 
Word from my cousin is that my grandmother, my last surviving grandparent, is likely to be dying (slowly, perhaps, as she's losing weight and not eating). I went to Buffalo back in March and saw her in the nursing home while i was there, but still, damn.
 
It's really weird. Three of my four grandparents did not exactly go out in pleasant ways. One grandfather had Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, the other broke his hip and started to have slight dementia, and one grandmother had Lou Gehrig's disease (which was probably the worst way to go). My one grandparent still alive, my grandma, drinks scotch and martinis everyday, watches CNBC and Fox News and attends church everyday.

It's really uncanny watching people you've known since childhood whom you loved just...deteriorate. But I suppose it makes things more precious and such.

When my grandfather with Alzheimer's was way gone in his mind, he would wander the halls of my grandparents' house. He was a doctor his whole life, and he would think he was at the hospital looking for his patience. One day, my grandma sat down with him and showed him a picture of him in his thirties. He had his doctor's coat on and pipe in hand. My grandma asked him, "Do you know who that is?" My grandfather paused and said, "That's one sharp lookin dude."

TL;DR Grandparents are awesome. Spend time with them
