ljdqAll we really wanted out of you was the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. However, some of you couldn't handle the truth. That makes us true blue.
1. Creatures ensnared by Wonder Woman's magic lasso were compelled to do what?
"Is 'magic lasso' a euphemism for 'magical vagina'?" -

b_hulsmans"Well, I know what I would do if a half naked superhero tied me up... wet my pants and tell the truth. Yeah, I'm a badass." -
_seasonofmists_"Oh my god, the number of BDSM/bondage cracks you're gonna get on this one." -
jessicamariek(Probably over 65%. Really, this should have surprised no one. -CV)
"Stay still, I'd imagine. Possibly make her tea and bring her chocolate biscuits." -
opportunemoment"Indulge in her insanity by taking a ride in her 'invisible jet.'" -
jellyblob"Dance the Macarena" -

"Dress in drag and do the hula! WHO-WOW! If you're looking for a hunk of fat and juicy meat, eat my buddy Pumbaa here because he is a treat, all this tasty swine, all you gotta dine, all you gotta do is get in liiiiiiiiiiine! Are you aching? YUP YUP YUP! For some bacon? YUP YUP YUP! He's a big pig! YUP YUP! You can be a big pig too! Ruwah!" -
jazzminarino, elfie_samurai(+1, The Lion King. -CV)
"it enabled them to know why Steve Trevor was such wuss. He was captured and tied to a chair like, every episode." -
atomicpagan"Wonder Woman and her magic lasso is what we need in the courtrooms. I’m sure that would work much better than the bailiff making you swear on a Bible." -
amorsalado"Tell the truth! I love that Cartoon Network commercial thing when she lassos Speed Racer and he's all 'I can't... drive... stick!'... that's good times." -
shinga"'Creatures'? So, it works on cats? Can cats even lie?" -
rikchik"To tell the truth. Which would really suck if you were Wonder Woman's husband, and you had a roving eye. 'I swear, sweetheart, nothing happened!' 'Really?' (*tosses the lasso*) 'Damn, I hate it when you do that...' Against that, finding out which one of the little darlings scribbled crayon all over the walls would be an absolute breeze." -
sjl"Imagine what happens when Green Lantern meets the JLA. Green Lantern gets tied up, and reveals his one critical weakness: Yellow. Now, this always has led me to imagine Green Lantern's Epitaph: 'Should have known what watersports meant BEFORE answering that personal ad'" -

mark_lauraCorrect Answer: Tell the truth
2. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis play husband-and-wife in which action comedy?
"Sounds more like a tragedy to me." -
revieloutionne"Action comedy is just odd duck of movie genres. It's like.. everything else makes sense.. but 'Action comedy'? How stoned was the asshole who thought up THAT genre?" -
tempusfrangit"I'd just like to give the rundown on Arnold Schwarzenegger's raw deal as a politician. I have to assume that the rest of you are too junior to have my total recall of Gray Davis' tenure, or that somebody went over your memories with an eraser, but the man was a predator on the school system whereas Arnold polices any budget cuts like some kind of kindergarten cop. As far as I'm concerned, we should treat him and his actor persona like twins: related, even as close as Batman & Robin, but certainly not the same. It's a damn shame his previous life gives him so much collateral damage." -
nextian(Excellent recap. Full credit. -CV)
"True Lies, and everyone must admit that Jamie Lee Curtis was a slammin' hottie when she was doing the sexy dance scene." -
shinga(Well, almost everyone... -CV)
"While I contest the 'comedy' portion of the question I will state that Jamie Lee Curtis stripping in that movie is one of the most uncomfortable things I have ever seen. Its like watching a drunk aunt hit on your gay friend." -
tarpo, shogunsquirrel"…'MILF' was invented to describe JLC in 'True Lies,' right?" -

"We're Serious Actors, Dammit!" - Llefser
"The Truth about Cats and Dogs?" -
prettylily"A Terminator Called Wanda" -
i_calql8"A Fish called Red Sonja" -
judith_s"The only governor movie I know of is Terminator, and I doubt that's the one. Wait, there was what, three Terminator movies? And there was that machine chick in one of them? I don't think that was Jamie Lee Curtis(not that I really know who that is, either), and I doubt they were married because all I remember is that she was a bad guy. I think. I think all I saw was the trailer? Who watches movies, anyways? Sheesh." -
ruchi"In an extremely early draft of The Terminator, Ahnuld's T-800 was sent back to Haddonfield, IL circa 1978 to eliminate Michael Myers in hopes of preventing all of those asinine 'Halloween' sequels from ever happening. Laurie Strode could only look on in horror as the T-800 failed in its task, enabling Michael to utter an alternate version of the iconic phrase 'I'll be back...to ruin the Halloween franchise forever!'" -
synystershadows"Mr. & Mrs. Jones. I understand that, years later, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were in a half-assed sequel called, I believe, "Keeping up with the Jones'" or something along those lines." -

singsonggirl"I want to pump you up... with Activia" -
faery_wing"That thing... in your pants... it is not a toomah!" -
woap"James Cameron doesn't make enough movies anymore. I know of NO other movie that could get away with a horse in a glass elevator and make it seem completely believable within the context of the movie. He was great at that." -
jennielf"I remember them looking a lot like siblings. Those chiseled faces, the teeth and the hair color-feeling. Made that whole movie just a tiny bit uncomfortable." -
affenbrotwald"True Lies! Which is a total misnomer. None of the lies told in that movie are the least bit true, not even metaphorically." -
opportunemomentCorrect Answer: True Lies

katiebgood"Can I be a mod if I get a city in Arizona to change its name to 'Elljay Deekyew'?" -
woap(City must have a minimum population of 1000. None of those little "one intersection" towns. Also, every inhabitant has to play. After that, moderate away! -CV)
"There's a city called Truth or Consequences? Could we start naming more towns after radio or TV shows? It'd be much more interesting than the current trend of naming towns after trees, or types of trees, or things that occur near trees, or things that sound as if they should be trees." -
youngcurmudgeon"In the early 1980s, Dick Guindon drew a cartoon about the town of Truth or Consequences, NM changing its name to "The McNeil-Lehrer Report." The cartoon was famous in that it was the only Guindon cartoon that did not contain a bag lady or a carp." - Llefser>
"Well, there wasn't much to DO in New Mexico at the time. It was the State Game, and you're no longer allowed to play after a weekend binge. State law. Trufax." -

germankitty"Truth or Consequences. The truth: it's a dry heat. The consequences: you die of dehydration anyway." -
whiski_sour"Truth and Consequences, a town I could never live in because I would get sick of writing it on all of my return addresses. Also there was that serial killer there a few years ago, and because I hate the desert, but mostly it's about the return labels." -

iamzaCorrect Answer: Truth or Consequences

"There is seriously something wrong with the way you run the country when the thing people remember you by is 'a singular middle name', way to go whoever you are!" -
b_hulsmans(Well, he was also remembered as the only guy who dropped an atomic bomb on a city during a war, but you know, whatever. -CV)
"Richard GTFU Nixon? or was it Bill OMFG Clinton. God.. I just invented a whole new way to name people. Chaos WTFNOOB Vizer. What do you think?" -

mark_laura(+1, The Truman Show. -CV)
"Harry S Truman. Who had what I would define as a 'plural' middle name, as it was chosed to honor both his grandfathers." -
revieloutionne(Technically true, but since the name has one singular letter, and is official, and since no one really cares about his grandfathers anyway, singular it is! -CV)
"Ulysses S. Grant" -
nextian"...whose middle initial stands for nothing and is not actually buried in his own tomb." -
fax_celestis"Harry the-middle-name-Stops-here Truman" -
faery_wing"Harry S 'The S doesn't stand for anything' Truman? A friend of mine hates him with a bitter passion. Not for dropping atomic bombs, or anything like that --- for missing a Final Jeopardy where the answer was him!

b_hulsmans"And during summer, he wears it on his sleeves as cuff links. Hearts are so convenient and stylish!" -
affenbrotwald(And many more variations along that line. You guys don't metaphor very much, do you? -CV)
"as far as metaphors (similes? I get them confused) concerning the heart, I prefer Green Day's 'She's holding on my heart like a hand grenade'" -
calankh"I once wore a pig heart as a glove. I say glove. We all stuck our fingers in the tubes and wiggled them about. Aaah, girls' schools" -

tempusfrangit(+1, being as old as us. -AL&CV&LL)
"Now I hate you for reminding me of that particular 80s trend: Dressing Like Madonna. Fine, she was True Blue back then. Now I keep superimposing her current face over the one in the video, and it's BAD." -
soberloki"Looking at that lyric I can only think it's some weird missing scene from Labyrinth. Of course that's probably because all I can think about when I see 'fits me like a glove' are Bowie's tights in that film." -
opium_lipsCorrect Answer: Madonna, "True Blue"

thepikey(FEMA doesn't do what most people think it's supposed to do. It isn't a rescue organization - it's only job is to calculate how much damage was done by a disaster & then reimburse eligible parties for some portion of that damage.

(Maybe. -LL)
(I drowned in Oregon Trail. We hadn't even left yet! -CV)
"So what REALLY happened during the Great Mod Disappearance? Was it the sheep? Did they brainwash you?" -
sometimespez(The sheep were, amazingly enough, not involved. Unless LL's not telling me something. Anyway, I went on vacation that Friday and had not done anything for the answers before I left. AL was having a long work week and weekend and was too distracted. And LL didn't realize that we were out of commission. So, a wee bit of poor planning and disorganization which, while somewhat regrettable and embarassing, is still not too bad considering it was the first time in over three years. -CV)
"Is gin honestly your favorite drink? That's about the only liquor we *don't* drink." -
mark_laura(I really do like gin. My cousin
katieledge makes a fantastic G&T & it is a refreshing drink. But I also like whisky (Scotch) quite a lot, so it's hard to say which is my favorite. -AL)(I love gin, especially in gin and tonics. I do like inventing drinks, especially sweet and/or fruity concoctions, because I have a serious sweet tooth. But I know that, even with crappy gin, I can and will make an excellent G&T and be a happy man. -CV)
(Gin isn't my favorite drink. Add that I'm only moderately fond of pudding and I love puns, I'm not quite sure why CV and AL keep me around. Though the puns thing does tip it a bit in my favor in CV's camp. Maybe it's the whole Sussex County represent thing. Hell, I'm just thrilled to be here. – LL)
"British comedy references will get you posted every time, won't they?" -
freezer818(I am occasionally overridden. – LL)
(It's good to spread the word, in case not everyone has tasted of their humour. -CV)
"What are the basic ingredients of Teh Funneh?" -
ntlespino(Puns – LL)

(A pound of bacon, a dash of oregano and garlic, peanut butter, Yellow No. 5, and potassium benzoate. -CV)

Date: 2008-04-07 08:12 pm (UTC)A bartender friend of mine was making fun of my gin-reticence (I drank Tom Collinses all freshman year, then swore off the stuff), and mixed up this great drink without telling me until after I tried it and loved that it was mainly gin. Here, you can try it yourself:

Also, my sister once took me to a bar where their specialty was buckets of G&Ts (yes, actual tin pails, with numerous straws), with loads of citrus fruits in them, and those were awesomely refreshing, but I cannot now remember where that was for the life of me. :-(
