Which One?!
Crying babies. They will have to eventually sleep / eat. And mother are more often apologetic.
Personal experience has taught me that a fat old men sitting next to me on a 14 hour flight in economy, means having to deal with him shifting uncomfortably around and waking me up in the middle of several sleep cycles. And this is a more personal reason but are less apologetic when farting.
Sigh.
Zombie Pirates or Space Ninjas
Grades. My boyfriend was cursed with popularity. I am forever known as "Binh's girlfriend". I know to stay away from popularity, LOL.spiders or snakes?
With a friend. It helps when you have snacks to leech off of, and friends to share the pain.CA weather or Washington Weather (having all 4 seasons)?
CA weather. Since I live in CA, and have never actually experienced all four seasons of Washington weather, I'm playing it safe. XDPhotos or video?

Photos. Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words! A picture may capture a moment perfectly. A photo can mean anything to someone but a video is more direct and to the point!
Have someone break your heart or you break someone's heart?
Have someone break my heart. I don't have it in me to purposely hurt someone else I actually like, but I can ride out other people hurting me. Hypothetically.Is the glass half empty or half full?
It’ll be empty when I get finished with it.Instant, unexpected death in a car crash, or a slow death from disease?
Christa - Ron Paul 2012 wrote: "TattooChicken or Turkey?"
Chicken. I absolutely love chicken!
Pretend to be someone else because it helps you get money or be yourself and be looked down upon?
Tough one. Home, I suppose. There's too many other annoying people moving round in a theater.Hot dog or hamburger?
Hamburger. I like those more than the hot dog.
Would you choose in the theater a "guy film" (with all the mindless goings on) or a "girl flick?"
Probably a guy film. They make more sense to me than "chick flicks." For example: Trying to break into a vault to obtain top-secret information vs. getting a boyfriend for prom night. I mean, really, the priority is obvious. At least in my eyes.Vocals or instrumentals?

I mean, reall..."This is why I like television shows; you can have the serious premise of conning bad guys or something alongside the romantic subplot without it all seeming stupid. A movie doesn't have space to engage the characters' entire lives without at least one aspect (the romance, usually, in guy films) looking a little stupid. Television shows can take their time with the romance plots while focusing on the primary plot.
Although, most shows just get stuck in an exasparating loop of "on again, off again" that makes me weep for the story writers who think that once the relationship is successful it stops being interesting.
Acoustic.
Burn Notice or Leverage?
I have never really seen either but I would probably like Psych more. I like Monk so I will probably like that too (though there is not much similar to it).Master Chef or Iron Chef?
oooh. thats hard. iron chef is more about the cooking but recently i've been watching more master chef. so right now i think i'd go with masterchef.
"Tangled," easily. The moment when he cuts off her hair is one of my favoirte cinematic moments. Of course, then somehow her tears save him, which was dumb, but it's Disney. I would've just let him die.Dean Koontz or Stephen King?
If he had cut off that much hair all at once she would have simply fallen over, and would not have been able to get her balance back for at least an hour. Hair is heavey stuff.Dean Koontz.
Ruch Limbaugh or Michael Savage
Blue, if it's midnight blue, green if it's electric blue and it's not hunter green. Green if it's moss green and primary blue. I don't know. Maybe orange.Acrylic or watercolor?
Crayons. They're more fun to draw with. More difficult, but more fun. I do use both though.Fountain pen or gel pen?
Georgia O'Keeffe because I recognize her name. I am not familiar with her works though.Scary movies or futuristic, sci-fi movies?
Oh, God! Julianne Moore. I think she’s one of the sexiest, most gorgeous women ever to walk the earth. Nicole Kidman’s not bad, though!There’s no way for me to top that. Let’s see. Eye of the Beholder or Close Your Eyes?
Unfortunately, I haven't watched both of these movies, M. I might be wrong here, are these movies you are referring to? And yes, Julianne Moore is one of my favorites! Michelle Pfeiffer stands next in line.Clint Eastwood or Morgan Freeman?
Morgan Freeman. That was easy. Michelle Pfeiffer--uhm hmm! She still looks great and has that allure. I saw an article about her in a magazine four or five years ago, and her eyes looked at me from that photo, telling me, in the way only eyes can, how easily her blue jeans would slide right off of those hips and gorgeous legs.Oh, where was I?
I watched Close Your Eyes because Moaning Myrtle is in it as a policewoman, and it turned out to be a hair-raiser!
Back to “Which One?”
An uninspired arrangement of a song you love, or an intriguing arrangement of a song you don’t particularly like?
Definitely the latter. Just recently faced up to this situation when I was listening to a Tamil song (my mother tongue). I loved how the newer version surprised me. Soccer or Rugby?
Eggs! For some reason I mostly hate bacon! It is in too much American food I guess.Let's see... The Beatles or The Monkees?
Bananas.It's not you. I just have been going through some kind of writer's block thing and haven't been writing much lately.
guitars or drums?
