It's been ages since I've had the time to make a poll for fun. But I have time today! I miss just chilling out on livejournal. It's been feeling like a bit of a chore lately, but I think the feeling will pass. I have at least caught up to my flist now. Not watching valyrian_forged for the moment actually makes it seem a lot more manageable (though I'll ( Read more... )

MEAT. My mouth is already watering, how embarrassing is that? >.> It's more that I love food, and meat is food, so I love meat? I dunno.

Not really a cruise but when I was small my parents took me with them to a big boat which made a day cruise through De Biesbosch. It was seriously the most boring day ever. I don't know what I would think of it now.

I know a lot of people regard Twitter as the Second Coming, especially re. Iran but seriously, not a fan.

Hahahah, I understand! Food deserves our love!

Yeah, a day cruise doesn't sound like it could really compare to the full cruise vacation, but I'm sure you'd enjoy it more as a teenager/adult.

My "other" for movies was The Proposal. It was pretty decent. :)

My "none" for tv shows, is that I don't watch any of them!! ;; The Office, House, Grey's, Dollhouse, and that's about it for me. :)

P.S. Don't know what Freaks and Geeks is, but it reminds me of this old show that I kinda miss: "Beauty and the Geek". It was fun and I don't know what happened to it, I'm pretty sure it got pulled. :(

Nah, Freaks and Geeks is something else. Sorry your fun show disappeared, though!

I went on one cruise and hated it. Mostly because I got terribly motion sick and my most embarrassing moment ever happened during the cruise. But it's also... not as fun as it looks on TV commercials. Really the only thing to do is eat and stare at the water. And the rooms are v. tiny unless you get a fancy one.

Twitter is lame and needs to be stopped.

Aww, it seems like you went on a particularly bad cruise. :(

The one I went on was like...more fun than TV. There were musical shows every night, games every day, a casino, an arcade, exercise classes, a track, and we stopped for lots of cool shore excursions (snorkeling with stringrays, pirate museum, etc.)! There are apparently even cooler cruise ships out there, with rock-climbing walls, karaoke, skating rinks, and so on...I guess a lot of it depends on your specific ship? Or whether you find certain things fun. I found my cruise vacation to be an "11", but my brother isn't half as "yay outdoorsy adventures!" as I am, so he'd probably rate it as...something less than 3. ;)

Yes, it does. Celebrities are only making it worse! I'm glad I'm not alone on that one.

On ours there were shows but they were LAME and we didn't want to go to them. There wasn't a casino or arcade, there was exercise classes but they were extra and we didn't stop anywhere. So I guess you do have to make sure the ship you're on is good. This was also like a decade ago so they might be able to put cooler things onboard now and also I couldn't drink because I wasn't yet 21 so that might've helped.

Hahah, yes, being over 21 tends to have a positive effect! :D

Not stopping anywhere sounds totally ridiculous! No wonder you got sick!

You forgot turducken, which is totally a different kind of meat than turkey, duck or chicken.

Also, Islands of Adventure is way better than Disney, if only for the Hulk (I'm pretty sure, it's green at least...) roller coaster that shoots you up the initial incline. Hell, any roller coaster is better than Disney.

Except that five-story arcade in Downtown Disney. Is that even still open? It was pretty rad.

Hey, I'm a newly born-again meat-eater here, you'll have to be patient while I learn! ;) Though I'm not sure I'd be a fan of that, after looking it up...

Hulk is the green floorless one, yeah. Islands of Adventure seems really awesome. And it's apparently going to be where the new Harry Potter park thing will show up in 2010. I'm mostly obsessed with the need to go to Sea World right now. They have some awesome roller coaster stuff there right now, including one of those very rare water coasters, which sounds ridiculously fun.

I don't like meat that much, and I'm the only person I know who doesn't care for chicken. Seriously, what is with all the chicken hype!

I worked in the real estate industry for two years, and while it's totally awful, hey, if I was desperate...

I don't know. It's not the first thing I think of when I have a protein craving (that would be Italian sausages, lol), but it's got a good taste to it and it goes well with a variety of different things. Plus, it's pretty healthy when it's compared to red meats and such. So it does have that, for sure. :)

I forgot that you did that! I'm very impressed that you managed to deal with it for two whole years, I can only imagine...

My transition from "general office support" to "interacting daily with agents and loan officers" was gradual, as was my descent into madness, so... XD
