False. I know I played cribbage as a kid, and remember the board and the little pegs, but now have no idea how to play it. TNP enjoys playing board games. > [@Leo\_Bloom](#): > > [So why _did_ packs of Luckies stop being green?] Because Lucky Strike Green went to WAR!(ca. 1942 naturally) ---

Life without sliders? Inconceivable. Madame P., admittedly, likes them better than I do, but boxed greasebombs are a staple part of life in Indiana. The Next Poster heard or saw Nixon’s resignation broadcast live. ---

True. Interesting side note. By sheer coincidence I had been standing in front of the White house that very morning. The Next Person went to a high school reunion at some point. ---

False, I’ve never attended a high school reunion. TNP has been to a live concert in the past 3 months. ---

False. It’s been a while. TNP has been to at least 3 of the continents (including home base). ---

False. Been to Europe, US, Canada, Mexico, Caribbean- but the last 4 countries are all in North America, so only 2 continents. TNP has been on an ocean cruise. ---

Half and half. The liner got docked for bad weather. I spent the duration of the “cruise” in a docked boat. TNP eats a hearty breakfast most days. ---

True. This morning I had a crab, shrimp, and spinach frittata with homemade mango salsa. It’s the most important meal of the day! TNP does not get seasick. ---

True. I was on a whale-watching boat in rough Alaskan waters, was one of the few (out of 50+ people) who did not feel queasy and/or actively rolfing. Oh yeah, they had a buffet and served salmon. TNP has named his or her vehicle. ---

> [@Mean\_Mr.Mustard](#): > > Something tells me you’re not so familiar with these theme songs. Haha. [The Mandela Effect](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=858977) in action. I could have sworn those songs had lyrics. I was even thinking of some of the words as I thought of the shows. > [@Mean\_Mr.Mustard](#): > > TNP has named his or her vehicle. True, but I can’t tell you the name. That’s between me and my car. TNP has or had a pet bunny. ---

False. The next player has threatened to quit/actually quit a job rather than do something their boss told them to do. ---

You betcha. As I said several times in real estate “I am not stupid, and I do not do illegal things.” TNP has been caught in a rainstorm this past month. ---

While I did walk quickly through the parking lot to my car 75 feet away during a light drizzle last week, I’m not going to count that as being “caught” in the rain. TNP has never had their income taxes audited ---

False. I’m hard of hearing, so Madame P. does most of the phoning. She’s been on hold this week. The Next Poster has an impressive vocabulary. ---

True. I am a wordsmith, having studied the English language extensively. TNP is bi- or even tri-lingual. ---

> [@Mean\_Mr.Mustard](#): > > …TNP is aware that the theme songs to “Hogan’s Heroes”, “The Odd Couple”, and “The Andy Griffith Show” all have lyrics. As did the original _Star Trek_: [The Star Trek Theme Song Has Lyrics | Mental Floss](http://mentalfloss.com/article/28895/star-trek-theme-song-has-lyrics) In play: Kinda. I can speak a bit of Spanish (a remnant from my high school classes). If you parachuted me into Madrid, I could probably find my way to the U.S. Embassy. TNP has been to Madrid. ---
