"Do You Listen to the Movielife?" - Chat Thread [ARCHIVED] • Page 57

Someone builds an optical portal that allows you to see a vision of your own life in the future (it is essentially a crystal ball that shows you a randomly selected image of what your life will be like in twenty years). You can only see into this portal for thirty seconds.

When you peer into the crystal, you see yourself in a living room, two decades older than you are today. You are watching a Canadian Football League game, and you are extremely happy. You are wearing a CFL jersey. You chair is surrounded by CFL books and magazines that promote the CFL, and there are CFL pennants covering your walls. You are alone in the room, but you are gleefully muttering about historical moments in CFL history. It becomes clear that for some unknown reason you have become obsessed with Canadian football.

And this future is static and absolute, no matter what you do, this future will happen. The optical portal is never wrong. This destiny cannot be changed.

The next day, you are flipping through television channels and randomly come across a pre-season CFL game between the Toronto Argonauts and the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Knowing your inevitable future, do you now watch it?

 

I'm so full I cannot even move

 

I can only move my finger to type that

 

Nope. If it happens, it happens. But I don't believe in fate anyway. Except for the fact that I'm positive that I'll live to be an old man. And I'm not sure why.

 

Sorry this thread is about me right now.

 

I was jk

 

If you put A1 on a Kansas City steak or a cube steak, that's permissible. If you're putting A1 on a boneless ribeye or a porterhouse cut, well, let's just say you started the fire.

 

ahah me too. at least i did until half the locations by me stopped doing nightly twofers like right after I turned 21.....

 

@Yasqueen4 don't hate me.

 

Too late

 

Last time I had a nightly twofer he moved to Maui.
Heyyyo

 

Consider this possibility:

a) Think about the beloved, deceased TV star John Ritter.

b) Now, pretend Ritter had never become famous. Pretend he was never affected by the trappings of fame, and try to imagine what his personality would have been like.

c) Now, imagine that this person, the non-famous John Ritter, is a sitcom character.

d) Now, you are also a character in this sitcom, and the non-famous John Ritter character is your sitcom father.

e) However, this sitcom is actually your real life. In other words, you are living inside a sitcom: Everything about your life is a construction, featuring the non-famous John Ritter playing himself (in the role of the TV father). But this is not a sitcom. This is your real life.

How would you feel about this?

 

But what about Goku?

 

Good gravy, you are a lawyer! So verbose, I love it!

Honestly, my personality fits in with a sitcom pretty well. I watched sitcoms from a very young age and have kinda always wanted my life to be a sitcom. Sitcoms are so static and safe. There's a comfort in that. I'd love it.

 

*Fart noise*

 

These questions are not my creations, they're courtesy of Chuck Klosterman (or C.K. Lobsterman as my wife calls him because of his Twitter handle, CKlosterman) but I do find them interesting.

Here's one straight from my gut: if you had to choose between being deaf or being blind, which would you choose?

 

Whichever garners more pity tbh. Pity is a response that I sometimes feel a craving for and I think it's the sickest thing about me. I've gotten better though, mostly.

 

Why is the song called "These Boots Are Made For Walking" I mean what other purpose do boots serve aren't all made for walking?

 

They're also a great indicator of who you've been sleeping with ie "whose bed have your boots been under?"

 

Okay. I'm out of time. Thanks for the questions!

 

@vidiviciveni we're in here pal. We made this chat thread to replace the old one for obvious reasons.

 

Why are you attacking poor John?

 

Bruh. I’m in class until 1 your time. I’m on a very quick break.

You’re Mormon, correct? Are you allowed to have caffeine? Have you ever had caffeine?

How was the dating life as a Mormon? Are you allowed to date outside of your religion?

Where do you want to travel that you haven’t yet?

You have a free weekend. No wife, no kids, and $1000 is gifted to you. What do you do?

Do you have siblings? How is your relationship with them?

Why don’t you like animals?

 

I really like Pinegrove. I don't think they're *amazing* but they're pretty , pretty, pretty good.
