Party Quirks II: Electric Boogaloo

Now I think I see what you are getting at!

Official guess: brujaja must include an anagram (ie. ‘ambles’/‘blames’ or ‘live evil’) in her posts.

Cats are nice, aren’t they? I enjoy a good pie - but I wouldn’t pick salmon as a flavour of pie, personally. If I had been able to vote, I would have voted for peach or strawberry rhubarb.

Who’s your favourite novelist? Filmmaker?

Oddly enough – he is in the Game Room! Kinda paradoxical, eh?

But, yes, he’s a Game Room fanatic.

And another one bites the dust – no stud she. :wink:

Four down, thirteen to go.

Guessed, but welcome to continue to post if quirk is maintained:
Autolycus (Munchausen syndrome/hypochondriac)
brujaja (anagrams)
Revenant Threshold (thinks he’s in Great Debates)
Wargamer (Game Room fanatic)

Anyone want to talk Star Trek? I think my favorite series was Next Generation. TOS was really good of course but I found DS9 to be a bit boring at times. Now, Voyager was fun but I know a lot of people found it the least palatable. (I never really watched Enterprise…the look of the series annoyed me)

Aaaaaagh! Ya got me!

You know, before the party started, I resolved not to use dog/ God & live/ evil, on the grounds that they were too obvious.

But the notion of George Bush having a band was just too much for me to resist!

Well played.

Ouch, mon petite chou!

See, the problem I always had with Star Trek is that even though it was supposed to be a military vessel, everyone was always put together so perfectly: nice hair, clean (if ill-fitting) uniforms, and they acted as if they got to sleep once in a while. Ask any real starfleet veteran and they’ll tell you that the only way to make it through a shift is with an espresso hypospray and hourly doses of whiskey. :smiley:

Daphne, I’m not much for knowing filmmakers’ names, but I can tell you what movies I like. For example:

The good thing about all of them was the phasers, if you ask me. Coolest thing ever. Which is also why I love Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Any movie with that “pew! pew! pew!” sound (Star Wars is another) fills me with gladness. I’m sure I’ve seen 19 or 20 different fashions of this laserbeam-theme in movies, and it’s always something fresh and new.

I rather liked the original series. Especially the women’s uniforms. They all looked like go-go dancers.

Star Trek was not a good show. I was bored when I watched it.

Kirk or Picard?

Almanacs are dry reading. But Confucius has pithy sayings. I like succinct teachings.

Picard totally. Partially because Patrick Stewart is just a better actor and seemed more real to me. Shatner seemed like he just had to be “the star” of the show and I didn’t like that as well.

Picard could fight and seduce as well as as Kirk, but had a host of other skills to draw on that just made him more convincing to me as the captain of the flagship of the Federation.

A dictionary is nice, yes? Alphabetising is wonderful.

Riker. Remember when he played in that jazz band? The chick in that was HAWT.

I like Picard better. But then, Next Generation was airing during my teen years, so I watched it often enough to know what was going on and like the characters, and I’ve only watched a handful of episodes from TOS. I did watch early seasons of Deep Space 9, but only bits and pieces of the first season or so of Voyager.

I’ll admit it, I’m a little bit lazy when it comes to watching stuff on TV. If it airs on a broadcast network during a time frame which is convenient for me, I may watch it. But if it doesn’t I probably can’t be bothered to seek it out. :slight_smile:

:smack: You’re quite… emotional, am I right, Eureka?

Who me, emotional? I can’t imagine why you’d say that. :wink:
