You are hosting a dinner party. You may invite five celebrity guests, living or dead. Each guest must have been born in the year of your own birth.
State your year along with your five choices; a brief explanation of why you chose them is optional.
You may not select friends or family members (unless they are famous). It’s nice that your Uncle Chester is a skilled raconteur, but he is not eligible (although I would like to hear the details on why you and he are the same age).
Oh yeah, you have to do the cooking. What are you having?
On the menu: Ribeye steak from the grill with caramelized onions and sautéed mushrooms; twice-baked potato with butter, cheddar cheese, sour cream, and fresh chives; grilled fresh asparagus with parmesan cheese and bacon bits. Dessert: Fresh berry trifle.
Elizabeth Banks - actor, director, long-time crush.
David Mitchell - comedian, actor, snob.
Edgar Wright - director, writer, nerd.
Bear Grylls - survivalist, adventurer, professional tough guy.
Hopefully, the conversation will be positively scintillating.
I will be making Sloppy Joes and French Fries, which David Mitchell will strongly disapprove of, to the amusement of all.
I will also be inviting Alex Jones and Marjorie Taylor Greene, but I will give them the wrong address, directing them out to the wilderness where they will be eaten by wolves.
Snoop Dogg - I think he is very smart, especially in business. I’d be fascinated to hear how his mind works.
Nathan Fillion - The entertainment of the party & official photobomber.
Sasha Baron Cohen - I’ve heard interviews and he tells great stories.
Ewan McGregor - If I don’t invite him, Mrs Cad would never forgive me.
5th - TBD
Nathan Fillion - Firefly and Castle
Alan Tudyk - Firefly and Resident Alien
Wynona Ryder - Hollywood crush who is no longer having legal/prescription drug problems
Christina Applegate - Hollywood crush who seems like a very genuine person.
Snoop Dogg - Seems like a cool dude to have over for dinner.
I thought of inviting Mark Wahlberg and asking him to bring some Wahlburgers, but I suppose it will now be up to me to make something. Thankfully, since I skipped inviting Elon Musk, I don’t have to learn how to make what @Cervaise is making.
