Chatterbox: Inkwell

HypQuests Dude!

HypQuests Dude!

Also, I invite your own.

1. What would you do if you woke up and found that you were your opposite gender?

I would freak. Then climb out my bedroom window (after putting on clothes more appropriate for a girl) and go find a scientist who might be able to help me. Or the chicken dinner. Either one.

2. What would you do if you woke up alone in a movie theater playing an NC-17 rated movie and all the doors were tightly bolted shut?

Consider whether or not to watch the movie or cover my eyes and ears and wait it out until someone found me.

3. What would you do if you saw a kid on the corner emptying a four gallon canister of baking soda into a postal service mailbox, and then once the can was empty he added four gallons of vinegar and ran away?

Call the police and report the kid for vandalism, since the wet letters would qualify as vandalized. Then bemusedly watch the mailbox volcano froth pour out.

4. What would you do if you went downstairs one morning and found Mr. Cabbage Face (the homunculous in Psuedonymous Bosch's Secret Series) eating everything that was in the fridge, then proceeding to eat the fridge?

I would ask Mr. Cabbage Face why the heck he was here and also tell him my mom wouldn't like it if a strange creature ate the fridge, then ask him if he could please get his food somewhere else.

back to the Inkwell

1. Lock myself up in my room and not come out of my room until the spell wore off. Or maybe put a hoodie on and find a wizard.
2. Depending on how appropriate it looked, either watch it or cover my eyes.
3. Watch the volcano. How do you know it's not a science project?
4. Join the Terces Society.

I got my hair cut yesterday and it's short and I don't like it. Spammy says "ncno" North Carolina no? What's wrong with North Carolina Spammy? That's where I LIVE!

1. What would you do if you woke up and found that you were your opposite gender?

Be so happy I could cry!!! Hello, heaven! Jeep, zombie, skull, Avenger, etc etc shirts.. being taken seriously.. being cool...being good at Wii... YES!!!!

 

2. What would you do if you woke up alone in a movie theater playing an
NC-17 rated movie and all the doors were tightly bolted shut?

Sit back and relax.. just wonder when the doors would open when the movie was over, for fear Thor would come on after.

 

3. What would you do if you saw a kid on the corner emptying a four
gallon canister of baking soda into a postal service mailbox, and then
once the can was empty he added four gallons of vinegar and ran away?

Watch what happens, and then run after him and ask if he wants to help me do that to everyone's mailbox, and then rent a huge cement mixer to pour some into people's houses.

. . . Freak out. 

 

2. What would you do if you woke up alone in a movie theater playing an

Dude, I just woke up in a movie theater by myself with no idea how I got there! I wouldn't be paying attention to the movie! I would either look for somebody to let me out or try to get out myself. Or raid the snack bar.

3. What would you do if you saw a kid on the corner emptying a four
gallon canister of baking soda into a postal service mailbox, and then
once the can was empty he added four gallons of vinegar and ran away?

I would probably watch the mailbox volcano for a second, then run away.

Since I never read Psuedonymous Bosch's Secret Series, I would ask him who/what he was, what the heck he was doing in my house, and if he was planning on buying us a new fridge since he ate ours.

1.) Bolt the door, call my best friend, (cause she's the only one I really trust), wonder if it's all part of a conspiracy my parents are part of, or wonder if it was PURRS. (btw, does anyone else know what show that is from?)

2.) Panic, quite frankly. I HATE my movies I'm not allowed to see (for good reason), and the idea of being locked in a large, dark room with nothing but a NC-17 rated movie playing would drive me insane.

3.)  Watch. Quite simply. I don't even know what those things do when mixed together. (I'm not a huge into being a scientist).

4.) Get a broom. You can imagine where it went from there.

When baking soda and vinegar are mixed together, they create a really frothy substance that erupts up and out, like a volcano. which is what is done a lot for volcano science projects.

@Blonde Heroines Rule

If I remember right (and if this is what your thinking of), PURRS is from Fetch with Ruff Ruffman. It is the organization that runs 'Go Get It', Ruff's rival TV show. PURRS is connected to Ruff's parents disappearance.

Is that the show you were referring to?

Fetch is flipping awesome!  And it was filmed in Boston, so I got to audition twice.:D

Hey Admins, is there any way I can rephrase the answer to HypQuest 1 (What would you do if you woke up the opposite gender), which got deleted, in a way that is OK?

Admin: I'm not the Admin who deleted it, so I can't say, but use your judgment!

1. Put on a dress, and run to tell my mom "I'm not cross-dressing!". Then get dressed normally and go on with life normally. Honestly, my gender was switched so many times in middle school that I don't even care anymore.

2. I'm more worried about the fact that I woke up alone in a mysterious theater without knowing how I got there than the movie, really. I'd watch it if it was a horror or action movie, but I would try to ignore it if it wasn't. Techinically, I didn't admit myslef in there, so I'm not to blame, right?

3. Continue going where I'm going. Most likely, this would happen on the walk home from school, and my backpack is so heavy that I don't really care about anything besides getting home and dumping it on a chair with a loud whump. A really loud whump.

4. Wow! Stairs! My mom would be really mad that someone ate her fridge and added stairs to the house, so I'd get out of her way before the blame could get somehow pinned on me. And because I am a good friend, I'd find Ruby and show him to Mr. Cabbage Face... Because Ruby's been trying to figure out who the real people and places are. It's just a book, but I think he's trying to prove how easy it would be to track down the real people if they were real. So, Ru-kun, you can interrogate Mr. Cabbage Face to your delight.

1. What would you do if you woke up and found that you were your opposite gender?

If I woke up as the opposite sex, I would be very concerned because things like that don't just happen, and I would want to know why. I would tell my mom about it immediately and request to go to the doctor as soon as possible to figure out what caused it. In the meantime, I think I would go on presenting as female because I was raised female and am used to thinking of myself that way. I've never actually thought about my gender identity because I feel comfortable enough as a girl, and I've never felt the need to give it much thought. If I was suddenly in a male body, then I would want to think about whether I really felt male or female (or not), because right now I'm more female by default than anything else, and if that happened, there wouldn't really be a default, and I'd have to actually form a clear gender identity (if I couldn't after introspection, which is perfectly okay, then I'd probably just keep the male body) rather than letting society make its assumptions. Basically, what I'm saying is that I'd have to decide whether I wanted to change back.

2. What would you do if you woke up alone in a movie theater playing an NC-17 rated movie and all the doors were tightly bolted shut?

While having to watch an NC-17 move would probably make me uncomfortable, I would be much more concerned about the fact that I was apparently kidnapped in my sleep and then abandoned. I don't even have a cell phone (I'm going to get one soon.), so I couldn't call my parents. I'd probably scream, not out of terror but because I'd need to attract someone's attention so that the door would be opened, and I could get to the nearest phone (Hopefully, whoever opened the door would have nothing to do with the kidnapping.) and call my mom. If no one responded, I'd go up to each of the doors and scream at them and hit them; if this still didn't elicit a response, I'd sing (because it would keep me from getting bored, and the movie wouldn't distract me from it).
As he poured the baking soda, I'd assume it was his own mailbox and that he must have some reason. When he came with the vinegar, I'd tell him to stop and ask why he'd do that. If he ignored me, I'd go home so that I could call the police.

4. What would you do if you went downstairs one morning and found Mr. Cabbage Face (the homunculous in Psuedonymous Bosch's Secret Series) eating everything that was in the fridge, then proceeding to eat the fridge?

First of all, I haven't read those books and wouldn't recognize Mr. Cabbageface. That said, I'd tell him to stop and shout for my mom to come.
