Title: What's worse? A general list
Post by: dania on April 14, 2009, 11:06:50 PM
1. Actors turned musicians or musicians turned actors? 

2. Bicyclists on the sidewalk or rollerbladers on the sidewalk? 

3. Running out of soap or toothpaste? 

4. Extreme heat or extreme cold?

There we go.

If the muse strikes, it strikes. So if an actor wants to make a go of music I say do it. I'll be waiting with flowers and candy for the first one to pull it off. In the meantime, they're only hurting themselves and amusing us.

I vote for extreme heat. That only makes running out of soap worse, put's people on their bikes and rollerblades, and makes terrible actors want to perform at summer music fests.

1. Actors turned musicians. There are plenty of musicians that have been good enough actors.
2. Rollerblader because a bicycle generally takes up less space and doesn't look as ridiculous.
3. Soap because it's easier to use gum/mints to cover up bad breath than having a whole body that stinks.
4. Extreme heat.  I'm used to cold weather and can always put on more layers.

1. Tie for last place. Actors turned musician might just edge it out, based on Bruce Willis' involvement.
2. Bikes. I seriously wanna steel armbar people when they come towards me on the sidewalk on bikes. I don't even remember the last rollerblader I've seen though.
3. Soap. In a pinch you can brush with some baking soda or stuff. Floss and scope, or you know, gum. No soap is unimaginable though.
4. Cold. It's easy to get lazy in the heat, but that cold is hard to beat.

1. Actors turned musicians - almost always involves auto-tune or country music. You can fake your way through acting but a shitty voice is a shitty voice.

2. Rollerbladers. They annoy me anyway (I know that's not fair but I don't care) and having them on the sidewalk would just emphasize my hatred for them.

3. Toothpaste! Ew.

4. Extreme heat is worse. I can't concentrate when I'm hot.

------------------------
here's mine:

What's worse...

1. Someone who is incorrigibly lazy or someone who is militantly productive (type A)?

2. Close talkers or soft talkers?

3. Crazy in-laws or crazy blood relatives?

4. Too much hair or not enough?

Extreme cold is worse.  It actually hurts.  Heat, you can just take a nap.  Of course, I'm not referring to it being so hot that it actually causes you to burst into flames.

edit:  Being cold outside while outside is worse.  Cold is better when you're stuck inside and have heat.

1. Actors turned musicians or musicians turned actors?  Actors turned musicians. The latter has worked out well for a lot of musicians.

2. Bicyclists on the sidewalk or rollerbladers on the sidewalk?  Bicyclists

3. Running out of soap or toothpaste?  Toothpaste

4. Extreme heat or extreme cold?  Extreme heat. This depends on living situation and your job. For me, I can handle the cold because I can control the temp of my apartment but when it gets really hot the A/C can be at full blast and it's still uncomfortable.


1. Someone who is incorrigibly lazy or someone who is militantly productive (type A)? Militantly productive. I'd rather pick up the slack for the lazy person before being in a high pressure situation where my best isn't good enough.

2. Close talkers or soft talkers? Close talkers

3. Crazy in-laws or crazy blood relatives? Crazy in-laws

4. Too much hair or not enough? Too much hair

Which are worse...
1. Militantly productive. These people always make me angriest, because while I am a hard worker, I like to take things at my own pace.

2. Soft talkers. I have really bad hearing, so I'd rather be able to see someone's mouth clearly to read their lips than to consistently ask, "Excuse me, could you repeat that?"

3. I would say crazy in-laws. But I don't have any yet, so I'm just goin' out on a limb.

4. Not enough hair. You can always get laser'd and such.

As far as the others...

Actors-turned-musicians
Rollerbladers (are they still around?? This is the 2000's)
Running out of soap
Cold. I hate being cold.

2. Close talkers or soft talkers?

4. Too much hair or not enough?

What's worse according to me...

1. The lazy ones are worse.  If they weren't lazy our economy wouldn't be in crisis. 
2. Close talkers.  I can totally relate to talking softly. 
3. I don't know anything about no in-laws, crazy blood relatives are just funny.  I have this one cousin twice removed who's all hippied out/trust-funded to the MAX.  He wanted to host a sun-blessing ritual at the edge of a cliff.  My dad told him he should drive his BMW off of said cliff.  Ha.. He really did tell him that!
4. Too much hair is worse because then there's less of a chance it'll catch on fire.

4. Too much hair or not enough?

1. Tough call, but the lazy annoy me. Which must be why I'm such a self-loather ha!
2. Soft talkers annoy the ess hit out of me.
3. Blood, because they think that gives them the right to be even more awful to you.
4. Too much. Longhair dudes creep me out. Also, depends on where the too much is, ears, noses, eyebrows, LIPS. Ew.

What's worse?

The Pontiac Aztek...

Or Paul Stanley's plastic surgery?

I like the color of the Aztek but not much else. I don't like anything about that Paul Stanley picture... Aztek.

Usually, bad coffee.  Even the worst black tea made from generic tea bags is usually okay.

But some of that canned iced tea stuff tastes like toxic waste, so if that counts as tea (it shouldn't), it's worse.

The Aztek is worse because there are more Pontiac Azteks than Paul Stanleys.

I'd rather have overbrewed coffee than overbrewed tea any day.  Overbrewed tea contains none of the pleasure of tea.  Overbrewed coffee just tastes like too strong coffee and it gets you even more jazzed.

I've had plenty of coffee that tastes like ass.  Not just strong or burnt, but like sawdust or something.

What's worse:  (1) People who call you, you tell them it's a wrong number, and they say sorry and then they call right back (often continuing to do so for weeks), or (2) People who actually don't believe you when you say it's a wrong number, and want to argue the point?

People who want to argue the point are worse (unless they're just trying to clarify what number they've dialled). The ones who call right back are annoying, but it's a mistake I think everyone has made at least once - they just haven't figured out "did I mis-dial or did I write down the wrong number?" But continuing to call the wrong number over and over would be the very worst.

What's worse: people who actually believe some nutty theory (e.g. "Obama is the anti-Christ") or people who don't believe it, but perpetuate it as a means of advancing a political agenda? I've wondered about this a lot.

Definitely the political agenda. I have very little issue with anybody who truly believes something to be true no matter how awful it is. It's their belief most likely the product of how they were raised and ingrained in them. I don't have to like it but I definitely can accept who they are. But, those who know what they are saying is wrong and using those people... they are scum.

what's worse:

1. Actors turned musicians, the success ratio is practically nonexistant. 

2. bicyclists- and if youve been to pacific beach (san diego) on garnett, you know what im sayin. 

3. running out of soap, then i floss, mouthwash, and orbit my way to fresh breath and clean teeth. 

4. extreme heat, because once your naked, you cant get any nakeder and its still hot as hell.

5. someone who is lazy.  at any rate, im guaranteed job security for picking up the slack.

6. close talkers- 3 FEET!

7. crazy in-laws or blood=tie.  either way, i dont put up with it.

8. not enough hair.  

9. people who call back after you tell them it's a wrong number.  come on, it's 2009- check the number you just dialed with the you have written down, if they match, accept rejection.

10. people who actually believe the nutty theory, the fakers are fickle folk.

I have a strong opinion about this, and for me, the answer is Russo. I know Francesa is not a favorite around these parts, but he's still the lesser of two evils for me. I can listen to him. Dawg, not for more than a short time.

What's worse, duct tape residue or stove residue?  Both are extremely difficult to remove, even with goo gone.  It's a tough call.

1. Someone who is incorrigibly lazy or someone who is militantly productive (type A)? 
Lazy is worse.

2. Close talkers or soft talkers?
Close talkers who run out of toothpaste.

3. Crazy in-laws or crazy blood relatives?
In-laws because you have a lifetime of experience learning to deal with crazy blood relatives.

4. Too much hair or not enough?
For hair on the head, probably not enough hair, although haircuts cost more if you have too much hair. And for body hair, probably too much hair.
