Official Question-Answer Thread

[Northern Lights]

A: 455,96 and that's because if you burn them first, only their ashes will be left and thus you can fit more of them upon a match.

Q: What do you think of parmesan cheese?

 

[rahvin]

A: it's a corruption on the actual "parmigiano" cheese we have here and a reason for endless battles over copyright control on food names.

Q: where is everybody today?

 

[Hiljainen]

A: they're all partying without us

Q: when did you have your last very-bad-cold? *sighs*

 

[Arch]

A: Over 3 years ago. I was bed bound, couldn't move. There was blood in my stool and I thought I was going to die.

Q: Do you keep up with current events around the world?

 

[ouagadougou]

A: yes, i watch the news and read the newspaper

Q: what's your opinion on globalisation?

 

[Arch]

A: I have very low opinions about globalisation. It's all about greed. Rich getting richer, poor getting poorer.

Q: Which movie do you want to see more? The last movie of The Matrix series or the last movie of Lord of the Rings trilogy?

 

[krigsbarn]

A: Don't know, both of course since i'm not fucking poor. And I can't tell which one had a less boring second episode

Q: don't you think the movie could be based either on a big novel like tolkien's or a stupid comic book, it has nothing to do with the entertainment in theaters?? Sorry but I'd rather see Bruce Almighty twice than The Two Towers. And anyway, I know I can do both!

EDIT: oh, and matrix reloaded was less boring than LOTR:TTT, but matrix really had scenes I'd cut out and never think about it again

 

[Delirious]

A: yepp. Jurassic Park. ok, I don´t enjoy it like I did when I was ten but I would still say it´s a good movie...
the fellowship is very good as well, imo. TTT was kind of a disappointment, though...
and then I haven´t seen neither A Clockwork Orange nor Trainspotting. I have quite some expectations on both...

EDIT: oh, crap. I think I read through the question too fast. the answer to what I think you really asked would be: yes, I kind of got the same feeling.

Q: going on with the book/movie theme. if you could decide one book that was going to be made into a movie, which would it be?

 

[Northern Lights]

A: The Wheel of Time series, and yes, the entire series. Now that's a challenge

Q: which movie do you think would have been better as a book (that was not already based on one)?

 

[MagSec4]

A: Fundamentals of Momentum, Heat, and Mass Transfer by R. Wilson
(too much homework )

Q: If you could live to be any age you desired, how long would you live?

EDIT: BAh! NL beat me to it

 

[Arch]

A: I want to start over around age 5 or so. So I know my mistakes.

Q: What time is it right now at your place?

 

[rahvin]

A: The Wheel of Time series, and yes, the entire series. Now that's a challenge

hah! that's why i like you!
we should do it. we just need about 300 female friends and a cool effect for differentiating saidar and saidin auras...

A: it's 8:00pm, central europe time, rome meridian.

Q: how fast do i have to come up with a question before the previous info about the time becomes less accurate?

 

[MagSec4]

A: One hour. Everybody in the world has the same minute, the only difference is in the whole hour. So the last 2 digits of your time are irrelevant.

Q: What would anger you most today?

 

[Delirious]

A: that depends on how accurate it was to begin with.

Q: what purpose does this thread fill?

 

[Delirious]

A: that I was too slow and your answer got before mine

Q: see above.

 

[Arch]

@Delirious, that's not a question.

 

[ouagadougou]

i think "what purpose does this thread fill" is a question.. i can't answer it, though..

methinks it's just for fun and enlightement

how is your life today?

 

[Tebus]

A: Don't know, both of course since i'm not fucking poor. And I can't tell which one had a less boring second episode

Q: don't you think the movie could be based either on a big novel like tolkien's or a stupid comic book, it has nothing to do with the entertainment in theaters?? Sorry but I'd rather see Bruce Almighty twice than The Two Towers. And anyway, I know I can do both!

EDIT: oh, and matrix reloaded was less boring than LOTR:TTT, but matrix really had scenes I'd cut out and never think about it again

I'm going to pretend that you didn't say the Two Towers is boring. I'm surprised though because if anything, people thought Fellowship of the Ring was boring.

A: I can't complain. Just falling asleep at my desk.

Q: At what age do you remember that you started analyzing things about the world?

 

[Wolfman Von Jones]

I think around age 5 or 6.

What do you think of giants?

 

[Arch]

A: Giants? Umm, San Francisco Giants? New York Giants? I don't keep up with the sports. I do like bifrost giants. I wanna live in midgard or Jotunheim.

Q: What's a bad habit of your's?
