Your Thursday Inquisition

ImageChef.com - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more
Today's little Inquisition won't be tough at all. I promise. And I promise that my promises are worth more than Torquemada's. Pinkie-swear!

1. In this unstable economy, if worse were to come to worst and you could no longer afford all three, would it be harder for you to give up gasoline, medicine, or food?

2. Have you been compelled yet to give up some small luxury because of the expense? If so, what was it?

3. Do you get along well with your in-laws, or do they consider you an outlaw?

4. Have you had this year's birthday yet?

5. If your answer to #4 is yes, which birthday present that you received did you love the most?

6. What is the most gauche thing you've ever done in public?

7. Do you always leave your house wearing clean underwear with no holes just in case you get into an accident?

8. And in keeping with #7, what color underwear are you wearing today?

Thank you. Thank you very much.

And now let's turn our attention to TWISTED LINGUISTICS and see what sort of Blasfomys (I am SO in love with this word) have been rooted out today. I'll do what I can toward interpretation; you guys do the rest.

undestand - Place to hang your undies at night.

attournies - Competition in which lawyers joust and jab at each other.

pubication - This is something obscene and we aren't going to discuss it.

additude - A case of the ass for addition (or commercials).

pesonal level - The value of the peso today.

Food

2. Have you been compelled yet to give up some small luxury because of the expense? If so, what was it?

Nothing yet, but I suppose the cleaning lady would have to go first...I waited 20 years for one though..so I may have to get rid of somebody.. I mean something else...lol

3. Do you get along well with your in-laws, or do they consider you an outlaw?

My mother in law loves me and I her. I think its because she doesn't speak English I don't speak Spanish. It works!

4. Have you had this year's birthday yet?

Nope but October 3 will be a bigie..I'll be mid century!

5. If your answer to #4 is yes, which birthday present that you received did you love the most?

6. What is the most gauche thing you've ever done in public?

Probably cried after too many martini's Years ago

7. Do you always leave your house wearing clean underwear with no holes just in case you get into an accident?

Yes always

8. And in keeping with #7, what color underwear are you wearing today?

Stripes..and they're brand new!!

Those were fun!

Serena said...

It would indeed be hard to give up gasoline, Roxan. Luckily, I don't take any medicine and I don't eat much, so I don't have to make the choice yet. Re your #7 and 8, is there something you'd like to confess?:-)

Yes, Bilbo, it hurts to forgo the Smoothies and such, but it would hurt even more to give up food altogether. Tough choice. LOL @ your #6. I suspect that happens to a lot of guys. #8 - okey-dokey, I won't ask.:)

Those words were hard to do much with, but you did it.:D

As long as it's not crucial medicine, Skunky, then I guess it's better to have the gas to get to work to earn the money to buy a little food.:)

Congrats on #3, Leelee -- and LOL. Sometimes I wish my in-laws spoke a different language. Good for you on #7. Clearly, you always listened to your mom. And congrats again on #8 -- new undies, and striped yet, rock.:-)

I said gasoline because there's always ways to get food. You can't get gas stamps or go to a gas pantry.
Not to mention it's a long way to even the closest grocery store.
So, I stick by my answer.

Confession? Oh no I have to keep some secrets.

Gasoline

2. Have you been compelled yet to give up some small luxury because of the expense? If so, what was it?

Unnecessary trips for food and medicine

3. Do you get along well with your in-laws, or do they consider you an outlaw?

EVERYONE considers me an outlaw

4. Have you had this year's birthday yet?

Yes. Had a special suit for it too

5. If your answer to #4 is yes, which birthday present that you received did you love the most?

A "make your own diamond" kit

Wore assless chaps with nothing underneath to The Alamo

7. Do you always leave your house wearing clean underwear with no holes just in case you get into an accident?

No. It's easier to blame whatever they find, ON the accident

It changes color depending on my mood ... I am seeking a patent, so don't tell anyone about it

1. In this unstable economy, if worse were to come to worst and you could no longer afford all three, would it be harder for you to give up gasoline, medicine, or food?

I don’t take any medicines so that’s easy to eliminate. Probably food. My stomach has a way of prioritizing things…

2. Have you been compelled yet to give up some small luxury because of the expense? If so, what was it?

Nope, nothing has changed for me at all

3. Do you get along well with your in-laws, or do they consider you an outlaw?

Don’t have any anymore! Yeah.

4. Have you had this year's birthday yet?

Nope. Coming up in July though.

5. If your answer to #4 is yes, which birthday present that you received did you love the most?

6. What is the most gauche thing you've ever done in public?

I puked right at the door of this restaurant…it wasn’t pretty

7. Do you always leave your house wearing clean underwear with no holes just in case you get into an accident?

I don’t own any underwear that has holes…well, ok, just the places to put them on and such.

8. And in keeping with #7, what color underwear are you wearing today?

You are assuming I’m wearing underwear ;)

Serena said...

Thanks, Ru. I'll give it a go. It may take a couple of days, but I'll get to it.:)

You know, Roxan, now that you mention it, gas pantries/stamps may be the next new thing. Wouldn't that be something?

LOL, /t. Makes sense to me.:-)

Re #4, Puggy, is there a photo of you wearing that special suit? #5 - are you saying someone gave you a lump of coal for your birthday? I am appalled! #6 - yeah, they don't like to see that kind of thing at the Alamo. Now I guess there's a new reason for people to yell, "Remember the Alamo!" #8 - mood undies? That'll be a popular product. Better get that patent quick.:-)

VE, #2 is true for me, too; hope it stays that way. #6 - oh, my! Not a real great endorsement for that restaurant, either. #8 - bad assumption, huh?:-)

1. Food - you have to eat to live. Although given that I live in Arizona, gasoline would be a close second because I would be quite fragrant by the time I got to work.

2. Eating lunch out - brown bagging it these days. Saves $$$

3. I am satan to my outlaws, much as they are to me - if in need of more evidence, please just take a look at my blog, do I complain enough abut them or what?

4. Nope. I'm not planning on it. 29 forever baby.

5. See # 4. Last year's favorite present was my new job! Got the call a week to the day before!

6. Dare I admit - had sex on the 5th floor patio with DH. For those of you who actually know who I am, I apologize profusely. Nobody saw. Else, most mortifying - threw up as a 10th grader in a class of all upperclassmen. Mmm, blue hawaiian punch.

7. Just bought some new undies, so the holey ones are laid to rest.

8. Black. Cotton, not stylish but not granny.

My apologies for TMI, but you asked!

G-Man said...

1..Food
2..Sicily's Pizza(A local eatery)
3..I get along great with them, they are dead!!
4..No
5..N/A
6..While pledging my fraternity, I had to give birth, dressed as a woman, on the sidewalk in front of THE most popular Burger Joint in town, on a Friday night after a football game..
(I gave birth to a 7 pound Chatty Cathy..hehehe)
7..Mr Chairman, I'd like to excercise my right as an American Citizen, to invoke the 5th Amendment!!!
8..RED...Of Course!!!!
YAY RED WINGS!!!!!!!!!

...Of course you know why I did this...xo

Serena said...

Good point with your #1, AA. I'd hate to think just how fragrant I'd be if I walked to work in summer heat. #2 - I don't eat lunch out any more, either. #3 - I've read some of your in-law stories. With some of those folks, Satan would be small potatoes. #5 - Congrats! What a great b-day present that made. LOL @ your #6. #8 sounds perfectly respectable.:)

BTW, there's no such thing as TMI around here.:-)

Galen, you've given up your pizza? Yikes! #3 - yep, that does help when it comes to troublesome relatives. #6 - Oh, my God! Please tell me somebody got a picture of that and we'll get to see it someday. LOL! #7 - Chicken! #8 - Such Red Wing fever. Red drawers, huh?:D

Of course, I know why you did this. It's because you wanted to do your part toward placating my phobia about getting caught in an accident wearing bad underwear.:-)

G-Man said...

Yes Sherry...You are correct!!!
Actually, I love making you smile!
;-)

Serena said...

Awww, Galen, that's even better.:-)

1. In this unstable economy, if worse were to come to worst and you could no longer afford all three, would it be harder for you to give up gasoline, medicine, or food? I could never give up cake.

2. Have you been compelled yet to give up some small luxury because of the expense? If so, what was it? The luxuries were gone a long time ago. I consider Diet Coke a luxury these days.

3. Do you get along well with your in-laws, or do they consider you an outlaw? One in-law is dead and the other is crazy. My significant other doesn't even speak to the cwazy.

4. Have you had this year's birthday yet? yes

5. If your answer to #4 is yes, which birthday present that you received did you love the most? Gee, that was a whole 3 months ago. CRS Can't remember sh--

6. What is the most gauche thing you've ever done in public? which time

7. Do you always leave your house wearing clean underwear with no holes just in case you get into an accident? no

8. And in keeping with #7, what color underwear are you wearing today? My Gramma spanky panties - white grocery bag posers

Serena said...

I'd hate to think about giving up cake, too, CD. Now watch them raise the price of cake. Grrrr. Re #2, that's exactly the kind of small luxuries I mean. There might well come a time when we have to give up the Diet Coke and drink tap water -- so we can afford our cake. #3 - I got cwazy relatives, too. Gives me something to talk about. #8 - Gramma Spanky panties? Sounds cute!:-)
