Ricky Martin, as long as I can use earplugs! lol

Which would you rather? Sleep with Johnny Knoxville after one of his gruesome stunts, or dance in a dog's vomit?

Dance in the barf

What would you rather do - have David Hasslehoff give you a mustard massage while wearing his Baywatch speedo or walk across hot coals?

Dance in a dog's vomit. With all my pets in has probably already happened.

Would you rather be locked in a box with spiders or locked in a box with snakes?

David Hasslehoff, but I demand a barf bag!

Would you rather suck Geraldo Rivera's toes or have a cat piss in your hair?

I think I rather the cat mark my hair lol I've had a cat whizz on me once. I don't even know who Geraldo is, but toe sucking is a turn-off for me.

What would you rather? Be stuck in a room for a year with one piece of paper, unable to write on anything but that one piece of paper, OR have your hand superglued over your eyes?

OOh, tough one. paper. I need vision. and my WIPs are taking like 3 years, so what's one more to mull it over?

Would you rather swim in a pool full of poisonous jellyfish or end every sentence with "at least, that's what the voices tell me" for a month straight?

wow good one ... I guess the super glue ... it does wear off sooner or later

Would you rather be stuck on a deserted island with a copy of the Davinci Code as your only reading material or wrestle a bear?

Oops, crossed PH, so I'll answer hers and put mine down below -- I'll take the DaVinci Code, as long as I have a pen to use the margins/covers/white space as writing paper.

Oh definitely the voices -- I think I do that anyway...

Would you rather spend 18 hours a day for the rest of your life writing romance novels or commercial jingles?

The tack. I've already done that. Some kids in primary school put a tack on my chair to be mean and I didn't see it in time. Yeeouch!

Would you rather be savaged by wild dogs or work for a cruel dictator?

I'll take the dictator - Im very dominant and Im sure I'd take over!

Would you rather have your parachute not open while skydiving or become somebody's prison biatch?

Dogs. I'm in favor of the quick rather than the drawn-out.

Would you rather have a sign posted on your front door that says "Sexually Transmitted Disease Quarantine in Effect" or attend your high school reunion with a bulbous black eye (obtained, of course, when you tripped on a pile of laundry left in the hall)?

I think I'll choose the prison buddying. Maybe if I fake an STD I'll get out of it!

And I rather the black eye. I'll tell them I'm a crime fighter That's how I could have got in prison in the first place!

LMBO!

Would you rather eat a jar of chillis, or hang upside down on the monkey bars a week, unable to get down.

Monkey bars

Would you rather be sunburned in places people don't normally see or have to wear a clown nose every day for a month?

The clown nose would go with my junk jewelry addiction.

Would you rather dance the Macarena all night at a wedding alone, or fall down a flight of stairs?

Fall down a flight of stairs. I've done that. Hurts like hell, but it's survivable. I'm not so sure about the Macarena.


Would you rather lose your internet service or your phone service (assuming the two are not connected)?

Oh the Macarena, as I'm sure lots of alcohol would be involved!

Would you rather get poked in the eye with a stick or drink dirty sock soup?

Oops! Too slow again!

bungee jump ... unless it was in Mexico when you might be mistaken for a pinata...

Would you rather get stuck in a public bathroom sans "tissue" or face a nasty Cuban firing squad?

Public bathroom sans tissue. I just hope I don't have diarrhea that day. :/


Would you rather walk on broken glass or do cartwheels on hot tar?

I could never french kiss Regis so I guess PeeWee will be my date...

Would you rather live to be a hundred not allowed to write from this point forward or be employed as the official spokesperson for your local Trailer Park because you married the unfortunate toothless offspring of the owner.
