I have a feeling I know what I’ll get, but I’d love to get a genre from you, Phouka ---

First, my profound apologies for taking so long to reply. These employers of mine have the kooky idea that I’m supposed to spend my work day working. What nuts! _deep breath_ Narile: You are the ocean adventure with a full-rigged sailing ship and a sea monster. Falcon: You are the funky, lone outsider girl who makes snot nosed stuck-up yuppie kids grovel in remorse for not being nice people Mega the Roo: You are the insanely so-bad-it’s-good apocalyptic sciffy flick where all the babes wear leather and metal spikes. You have a harem of men. Chef Troy: There is only one movie that fits you: [_Who’s Killing All The Great Chef of Europe_](http://us.imdb.com/Title?0078488). Otto: You are the campy musical that requires audience participation. Without pants on. Vestal Blue: You are the gritty cop drama with completely unexpected, wet-your-pants funny comedy lines. Canadian Sue: You are the languid romance film with kickbutt cinematography. Sunshine: (since I’ve done hardly any theater) you are the comedy of manners in which everyone gets good lines and nobody looks silly for too long. Think Oscar Wilde. Arnold: you’re too easy. You are the low rent, sardonic Woody Allen films. voguevixen: you are the young woman explores her sensuality in inventive ways flick. Also available in plain brown wrappers. Quadzilla: you are the Japanese monster movie. You crush small colleges under your rubber feet. Kat: You are the heart pounding suspense flick in which all of the plot twists come out in a logical, believable, yet completely unpredictable climax and satisfying denoument. Zyada: you are the sultry spy film. You get to wear a trench coat, or on occasion, dress like a belly dancer. * * * Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good dipped in chocolate. ---

Aw, Riddles, you know I only pegged ya 'cause I love ya. 😉 SwimmingRiddles: you are the screwball comedy with mistaken identities, cross-dressing, and happy endings. * * * Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good dipped in chocolate. ---

AHHH!!! I almost posted that in my OP. “For the record, I’m a screwball comedy…” but then I thought that was being pushy, so I deleted it!!! Wierdness. And thank you.
