Sub eye deal full stop.
Out of all the Vox posts you've written, which is your favorite? Why?
Submitted by Adam.
This one. Because it is skill.
You've found the fabled pot o' gold. How will you spend it?

I will not. I will eat it.
*Crunch crunch*
Yum!

I will meet a tall, handsome deviant on Saturday; who will be attracted by my righteous patter. We will hurry home, our passions inflamed... Yet - unable to wait - we will stop en route (possibly at a grease monkey's). One of us will be pleased by the other's performance; for the other, it will all end too quickly. We will be arrested for lewd conduct, but bailed out shortly afterwards. The following morning, I will feel so ghastly and ashamed that I will run away to a different settlement. However, this town will not be able to satisfy my vitamin C requirements; so I will take to the hills in search of citrus. There I will stay until the cows come home (whereupon I will eat them).
It's a good thing that the list was limited to ten. A few tracks later, and my Winamp cranked out a song by Sick Of It All called 'Broke Dick'. This would have been awful. I hate to think of Richard having to go through tough times.
Who was your first celebrity crush?
Submitted by Glory.
I'm not sure any celebrity has ever fancied me, more's the pity. Caroline Quentin apparently liked the look of my brother when she saw him on a train. He was very drunk however, and sicked into a cup shortly after she'd got off at her stop.
What method do you use to prepare your coffee or tea?
Submitted by AgentBouche.
The rhythm method.
What was the one toy you wanted as a kid that your parents never bought you?
Submitted by Princess of Darkness.
I never had Operation, or Mr Frosty (although I am reliably informed that this was incredibly disappointing).
Moreover, my parents actively forbade me from having Transformers. This really jarred, as *everyone* had Transformers. I think I was told that they stifled creativity. I'm not sure a six-year-old subideal really grasped this conceptually.
So I went to the large Lego box, and set about building my own. They worked too. I went to show my parents, in order to claim my victory.
"Ha! I have Transformers now," quoth I.
My folks pissed over this moment of glory, by pointing out that my reward was having achieved something through exercising my creativity.
The moral of this story is that, if you are an adult, with another adult on side, it is easy to beat a child in an argument.
What's the most famous movie you've never seen?
Submitted by Mike.
All the classics. Anything found at the top of 'Best Movie Ever' polls. So that's 'Citizen Kane', 'Gone With The Wind', 'Casablanca' - you name it. I am a heathen and a philistine.
Actually, I have seen the first twenty minutes of 'Casablanca'. I started watching it with [she of whom we do not speak]. I can't remember where I heard this, but I'm sure there's some legend which states that you will never marry the first person you watch 'Casablanca' with. So, despite my reaction to the beginning of the film being 'By jove - this is something of a corker!', I think we might have stopped watching it together on purpose - for fear of the legend proving true. Either that, or we became amorous, and too engrossed in one another to watch the rest.
There was a time when life was sordid and romantic.
*Sigh*
What are your Superbowl plans? What's your prediction and why?
Submitted by danatmedog.
I plan to have a super bowl of porridge. I predict it will be nutmegtastic and soymungous. Why ? Because I will be using nutmeg and soya milk.
