27 posts to the big 1000. Ask me anything.

[Taxloss]

I want tonight to be the night.

Out of interest, what happens when you reach 1000? Champagne and dancing girls, right?

Nighttrain, if you're here, you're double-invited so I can show I can demonstrate I don;t have to disagree with you every time we meet.

1. What Color is Your Parachute?

NT

[Taxloss]

9. Parachute? PARACHUTE?

However, I DO know who moved my cheese.

[OhioBlue]

2. favorite movie??? n/t

[Taxloss]

8. All the President's Men.

And it was long before Bush. Just brilliantly paced to maintain action and suspense while recreating the tedium of journalism.

[Minimus]

3. What do you think this is:

:freak: ?

I know it's the smilie for "freak" but I just don't get it.

[Taxloss]

7. I've never understood it either.

For some reason it really looks rather seedy.

[bigwillq]

4. How many pairs of shoes do you own?(nt)

[Taxloss]

5. Six, I think. n/t

[bigwillq]

6. Do you like beer?(nt)

[Taxloss]

10. Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

Stella Artois is my brand of choice.

[bigwillq]

11. I like Stella

How many can you drink before you start to buzz?

[Taxloss]

12. Three 50cl cans are usually enough to put me in a very good mood.

Six, and it's beddy-bye-bye time. Eight to 10, and I might not reach the bed.

[bigwillq]

13. Ok, metric system problem

50cl is that like a 12 ounce can?

[Taxloss]

14. I have no idea. They're 6.5 inches tall.

I just measured one with a ruler.

[bigwillq]

15. Ok, next question

Are you a happy drunk or do you get in a fiesty mood?

[Taxloss]

16. I'm a happy and sleepy drunk.

Unless someone mentions one of my pet subjects, in which case I get a little feisty.

Otherwise, my body has given me a brillaint defence mechanism - I just nod off when I've had enough.

[bigwillq]

17. What are some of your pet subjects?

IF you don't mind sharing.

[Taxloss]

18. Ummm ...

1. How the supposed benefits of the Royal Family are false.

2. "What you don't understand is that journalists can be liberal without journalism being liberal."

3. Architecture. That might sound stupid, but I once got pleasingly drunk next to my landlord at a dinner party and we argued fierecely but in a friendly manner over the relative merits of a new government office building for the whole hour.

4. How the decline of football is indicative of the decline of the British working class.

Oh, and probably loads more on other subjects.

[bigwillq]

19. BY football do you mean soccer?

Just curious.

[Taxloss]

21. Yes.

Oooh, and I forgot quantum physics. When I'm drunk I think I know it all about quantum physics. For some reason. And boy can I bore about it.

How about you? Angry or happy drunk?

[bigwillq]

22. Happy Drunk!

Really happy! I get all crzy and silly and touchy-feely.

[Taxloss]

24. Touchy-feely?

Has that ever got you into trouble?

[bigwillq]

30. Oh, yeah! Big problems!

Not from the other people, they don't mind but I have gotten myself into trouble by sometimes doing stupid things even though I have a boyfriend.

[Taxloss]

31. I have a friend - female - who gets VERY touchy-feely drunk.

You know, hugging, clinging on to, even stroking and pecking on cheeks. I'm fairly inhibited, so it makes me fairly uncomfortable, but I have to ensure that she is never drunk in the same room as me and my S.O., or my S.O. might employ the ninja death kick, and I don't know who against.

Entertainingly, although this girl - a former colleague and good friend - and I have no romantic interest in each other and never have, her outrageous touchy-feely behaviour at a party years ago led to a completely untrue rumour that I had enjoyed a liaison with her and another girl. This was a rumour I wasted no time in doing nothing to quash.

36. Congrats on 1,000 posts!

[FuzzySlippers]

20. Why are you still awake? Isn't it 3:30 a.m. over there?

And I reached 1000 last night. You don't get diddly squat.x(

[Taxloss]

23. Yes, you're quite right, and I'm being hassled to come to bed.

So time is of the essence.

[NNadir]

25. What is your favorite element in the periodic table?

[Taxloss]

28. It has to be cobalt.

[VeniceBeat]

26. Have you ever had a bath in Bath?

(Trying to keep it clean...)

[Taxloss]

27. Yes. Well, in a village just outside Bath anyway.

But I've never had a battle in Battle.

[Taxloss]

29. Come on! Fewer than 10 and I'm there! Ask me anything!
