Question of the Day:

What's your favorite part of the holiday season?

My favorite thing is the Christmas cookies. So very very yummy.

 

[Maverick]

I like how most people all of the sudden, become a better version of themselves.

 

[Darth_Jonas]

haha, good one Mav. I like how it's the one time of the year that nearly all of my family stops the pettiness, self-absorbtion, and grudges and comes together like a family should: meaning we feast, play games, and listen to the older generation tell stories that are mostly BS.

Question of the Day:

Who is your favorite poet?

Mine is Ovid - The Metamorphoses are the best!

 

[Maverick]

You mean besides myself?

 

[BCampbell]

Creeley.

 

[GhostToast]

uhm. damn this is tough. i am just gonna base my answer on musical lyrics which are poetic. and my answer is... thom york of radiohead

 

[Darth_Jonas]

The Lizard King himself, Jim Morrison.

 

[scoops]

Robert Frost. Edgar Allan Poe. Alexander Pope. Robert Browning. Oh, and me, not that I quite compare to the others ahead of me.

 

[BCampbell]

Creeley could kick all their asses. At the same time. While they were alive.

 

[kurruption]

Tupac Amaru Shakur, anyone that doubts me go pick up his book of poems titled, "The Rose That Grew From Concrete"

 

[wijg]

All the poems in Calvin and Hobbes are pretty good. There are several recognizable poets or lyricists that I could mention, so I will throw in one a little more out of left field.

Tim Jenson. He has written the majority of the lyrics for Yoko Kanno's music for animes such as Cowboy Bebop and Ghost in the Shell. It is really cool how his lyrics relate to the characters and events from the shows. "Call me, call me" from the Hard Luck Woman episode of Cowboy Bebop is probably my favorite. I have used a quote or two from that song as my sig.

Question of the Day:

Which national chain, do you think, makes the best pizza?

I'd have to say Papa John's for pizza, but Domino's for breadsticks.

 

[scoops]

Oh, sure. Push the new Canadian guy right out of the conversation why don't you! :weeping:

 

[kwilson]

Most of our national pizza chains are also in Canada, so I'm sure you can comment. I didn't mean to exclude you.

 

[scoops]

Papa John's isn't.

I don't like Domino's, I always find the pizza too dry. I've not sampled enough of Little Caesar's to have an opinion.

I guess I like Pizza Hut, mostly because it has the best crust of those I've tried.

 

[GhostToast]

i think i'll go with papa johns too, cause it was a staple food in college

 

[Darth_Jonas]

I'll cast my lot with Pizza Hut. Mmmm, meat lover's stuffed crust....

 

[BCampbell]

I'm not a fan of Papa John's because they redline their deliveries. Consequently, there aren't any stores near me.

Domino's is okay for a quick fix, but their pizzas are manufactured. In fact, every pizza I've had at a chain tastes manufactured. In the time it takes to call and get something delivered/picked up, I find it's cheaper to just get some dough and make a freakin' pizza. The results are always better, too.

 

[Maverick]

I hate all national chain pizza places. I like the local joints. National chains go for gimicks way too much.
