[QUOTE=Shoshana] True! The next poster had at least one poster of a Star Trek character in his/her room at some point before adulthood. [/QUOTE] False. Though I wouldn’t have minded a nudie of Nichelle Nichols back in the day. Or even a swimsuit shot. Hell, Lt. Uhura in the toga would’ve been nice. The next poster has read the Bible cover to cover. ---

False. I’ve tried more than once, but it’s really a tough slog. The next poster has eaten a bug on purpose. ---

[QUOTE=featherlou] False. I’ve tried more than once, but it’s really a tough slog. The next poster has eaten a bug on purpose. [/QUOTE] True. I’ve tried crickets and ants, both in candy. Didn’t do anything for me. The next poster has worn an item of underwear belonging to the opposite sex. ---

True, although it was a Moreton Bay bug. The next poster is expecting a knock at the door. ---

Nope. I’d be amenable to eating a properly prepared bug (say, a cricket) but I haven’t actually done it yet. The next Doper to respond will be a colossal nerd. ---

----- hijack ----- > [@Seren](#): > > Caiata, can you eat real blueberries? I’ve got a similar allergy to fake strawberry flavoring but not real strawberries and I’d never heard of anyone else with anything like that. Yes, real blueberries cause no problems at all. But fake blueberry flavouring causes hives like … well, like no girl should ever have to suffer! ----- /hijack ---- > [@JThunder](#): > > The next Doper to respond will be a colossal nerd. False. I only scored 65% on a geek test heavily weighted to nerdy pursuits like Star Trek. However, I have a periodic table mounted like a piece of artwork in my kitchen, I do calculus for fun, and I teach analytical chemistry in my spare time, so I’m probably a Gargantuan Nerd, not quite Colossal … 😉 The next doper to reply prefers Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy over Red Dwarf. ---

[QUOTE=Caiata] The next doper to reply prefers Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy over Red Dwarf. [/QUOTE] True! I’ll even take the Og-damned love story new version over RD. The next poster is also up late surfing the dope, when he (or she) should really be in bed. ---

True, (I missed my cue from \*\*Silenus \*\* earlier) The next Doper is a bum their football team lost today. ---

False, because I expected them to lose. The next poster thinks s/he’d look hot in a fedora. ---

True - I look hot in all hats. I’m blessed that way. 😃 The next poster thinks Picard was much better than Kirk. ---

False, and the very thought has destroyed any desire I one had to father children. The next poster has music in languages they do not understand. And sings alone. ---
