Random Linnit Quiz 002
1. Boys question: Have you every toyed with the idea of make up? Not just publicly, but in the privacy of your own home?
A: Even though I�m a girl I have never ever toyed with the idea of make up! The whole applying it and cleaning it off malarkey is far too time consuming and, if my observation of people who do wear it is anything to go by, the results are often unpredictable and occasionally goddamn awful.
2. Girls question: Which male character from BtVS or AtS do you think could carry off the whole make-up thing? Spike is, of course, excluded here!
A: I�ve seen Anthony Stewart Head in full make up when he was in the Rocky Horror Show and it wasn�t a pretty enhancement to his visage. So, I�m thinking that Alexi Dennisoff could pull it off and still retain some macho dignity.
3. Do you eat five sorts of vegetables a day as nutritionists say we ought?
A: Truthfully, no. At best I can say that we do have Sunday Roast in the Linnit household and that�s when I�ll eat my five. But during the rest of the week I tend not to sit down to dinner with the rest of the Linnit clan just so that I can avoid the whole vegetables thing. I�m a bad, bad, Chrissie.
4. You�re hosting a mini-Boardie get together with Boardies from all over the globe.
a. What are you going to serve as the one memorable meal?
A: I�m hiring in a hotel chef and getting him to lay on an all-day buffet!
b. Who are you going to have as the Invitation Guest?
A: Jane Epenson, screen-writer and creator of some of my favourite BtVS episodes. She, and some of the fanfic authors I admire would keep anyone who likes BtVS and AtS enraptured (and silent)!
5. When was the last time you:
a. weighed yourself?
A:I can�t remember. If I still fit in my clothes, I�m happy.
b. went swimming in the sea?
A: Although I live within a few hundred yards of the sea, it�s probably been two or three years!
c. bought someone flowers?
A: Drat! I was about to say I buy flowers every week, but they are for my home� for someone else, eh? Hmmm, do you know I can�t recall, it�s been that long. I promise to do something about that though, and this week I�ll buy some for�. A neighbour I know is feeling very low at the moment (she�s one on thousands recently affected by redundancy and money worries in the current economic downturn)
d. spoke to a random person?
A: Does the postman count? No? Riiight�. Ah! I did chat to a lady in the coffee shop at my local store, yesterday. I was reading Robert Jordan�s prequel to his Wheel of Time series. She encouraged me to get the whole series. I shall.
e. Picked your nose and where were you when you did it? notice that here I didn�t even bother to ask if you actually pick your nose? I KNOW YOU DO!
A: I do it, very occasionally, when I�m driving. Apparently, it�s the second most common activity a lone driver does� the first being talking to oneself! Strange, isn�t it, how one�s nose always seems to itch in the car?!
6. Fanfic question (if you don�t read fanfic, think Boardie): Who would have liked to see as a writer on BtVS or AtS? Why?
A: BarbC � Barb Cummings is a great fanfic writer, has highly intelligent discussions and debates on her LJ/website and is an all round smart and likeable woman. She�s also someone I�d really love to meet.
7. Trick or Treat? Love it or Loathe it?
A: Love it in the sense that I enjoy seeing the little ones� dress up and have fun. Loathe all of the commercial hype and exploitation that�s sprung up around the day in recent years.
8. Hot Air balloon over African plains; Scuba Diving on the Great Barrier Reef; Walking the Scottish Highlands; Shopping in New York.
a. Which one is you? A: Walking the Highlands.
b. Who (fantasy or real) would be with you? A: BarbC, Jane Epenson, Joss Whedon.
c. Why? Stunning scenery, tranquillity and good air during the day, great pub food and intelligent and witty company in the evenings.
9. Jurassic Park; Tarzan; LoTR; any other epic you can think that�s book made into film. Do you end up preferring book or film?
A: The books always let me superimpose my own impressions of characters and they have the full story, so I love them. However, in the case of LoTR, even though there were many gaps in the overall story, the stunning backdrop, CGI, and representation of several of the fantasy charaters (Legolas, Elen, Rohan) was beyond even my imagination.
10. Peanut butter sandwiches. Discuss
YUK! Just��.. yeughhhhhhhh!

a. What are you going to serve as the one memorable meal?
Probably be at a buffet since I live in vegas and am to lazy to cook.

VKmax, Veggie, Toothy, Gretch, Gemma, Xandrew (just cause I think he might be funny if he's not sober). and a few other select people.

If you've ever read Joss Whedon's Fray comic you just have to agree that Melaka Fray (Whedon's original Slayer) just IS Dushku!
