Well, get down to it, son!

I could eat ANY candy except for Twizzlers or caramel cremes. As for my favorites...

1) Anything Reese's or with peanut butter
1) Gummy bears/worms (tied)
3) Peeps
4) Jelly beans
5) Cadbury eggs
6) Charleston chew
7) regular chocolate
8) Everything else

We may be candy perfect for each other because I love Twizzlers and caramel cremes.

Do you like other licorice?

How do you feel about Marshmallow?

Do jelly beans have rankings? I adore jelly belly jelly beans. I also really like several others.
Do you have favorites? What are they?

Why does the Charlston Chew get such a high rank in your candy spectrum? (fwiw - I TOTALLY get the reeces rank. )

have you ever had made from scratch Carmel?

Is that why you hate carmel creams?

I do like black licorice. Red licorice is okay, but Twizzlers is just one I'm not a fan of at all.

I love marshmallows (hence my enjoyment of peeps). I'll eat them plain, I'll have them on s'mores even when they're burnt to charcoal. Marshmallow cream frosting is also a wonderful delight.

I don't know if I could rank the specific flavors, but jelly bean flavors are (usually) wonderfully accurate to their real-life counterpart.

Charleston chews, I can't explain. Just a good combination of vanilla and chocolate with a good texture.

As for handmade caramels, my mother makes homemade golden caramels that are probably the most amazing candy I've had. Caramel cremes pale so much in comparison and have kind of a waxy feel in my mouth that I just don't enjoy. So yes, that is why.

What would you rate as your favorite candies? Also, I don't eat all that much candy, but that's not because I don't love it

1) Japan, Thailand, Switzerland, Chile, and New Zealand, in that order. Japan has potential, don't know about the rest yet.
2) I actually don't really stress about things often. I guess my response would be to chill out with music that's relaxing. Probably instrumental, and something in the jazz family.
3) No, I do have many good friends, but not one close enough that I'd call a best friend.
4) My hope is that my body is cremated and released into the wind, but most people are buried in a large field littered with ornate stones and freshly picked flowers. As far as my soul is concerned, I have not come up with an answer yet. I've taken some religion classes in my current college out of interest and comparison (I was formerly raised a Catholic), but there are so many things that could happen based on what you believe. If I come up with an answer, I'll let you know.
5) Bicycle. I own a car that I use to travel longer distances and in bad weather, but my bike gets me most places I need.

do you like anime

No, I think it's silly.

I kid. I don't watch American television, but I am a fan of anime.

I figured as much

Favorite show/genre?
Anything that's currently on that is good?
Do you have a MAL?

My favorites ever would include Clannad, Spirited Away, Cross Game (my current avatar), and The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi.
I'm not currently watching any, but I was told of a really good one by a friend that came out last year, though I can't remember the name of it.

I've also put my mal list in my sig for easy access.

Hey Metalmarsh

Happy Sunny Sunday MM!

1) My favorite kind of metal? Probably either prog or power metal. Dream Theater and Iron Maiden are my two favorite metal bands, but there aren't that many others I like. Tool I enjoy from time-to-time. Megadeth is in the same boat, and Metallica to a lesser extent.
2) My belief for bands like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, and Rush is that they are precursors to heavy metal, and though they were heavy themselves, they are just some good hard rock. I'd go with Black Sabbath. They were kinda borderline, but they set the stage more than any of the others I mentioned. I definitely do prefer hard rock over heavy metal.
3) Yes, I absolutely love Meddle, from front to back (except perhaps Seamus, I don't find that song to be anything special). One of These Days is one of my favorite instrumentals of all time, and Echoes is magnificent, as you might agree. Meddle was actually the first vinyl I ever bought, though I did end up giving it to a friend since I already had it on CD. Also, what's your favorite Floyd album?
4) I wouldn't have the desire to be an alchemist, but if I was, I'm sure I would enjoy it. It sounds like something up my alley.

5) My last name is actually Marsh, so that's where that comes into play.
6) I haven't watched Brady Bunch since I was a kid, but since Jan and Cindy didn't die, I'm sure Marsha did just fine.
7) YES!!! Love 'em!
8) I'm not familiar with that song, but it doesn't sound like something I'd listen to often. It is better than country of today that I'm familiar with though.

And a happy Sunday to you! It's raining a bit today, but the temperatures are creeping upwards at least.

I need a new volunteer for this room please!

I volunteer as tribute (only if someone else hasn't already)

thellama73 wrote:I need a new volunteer for this room please!

Pick me pick me.

Oh wait...

I'll volunteer for whenever you need someone.

Alrught, let's go with MattMatt.

Everyone interrogate MattMatt!

MattMatt, what is your favorite type of soup?
Do you have any desire to climb a mountain, and if so, which one?
Would you rather be a really amazing blues singer, but from a time before recoding devices so no one in future generations would know, or a mediocre modern singer whose work will be preserved forever?

1. I don't have particular favorite, but I eat tomato soup the most.
2. Not any in particular, but I would do it if I was near one and wanted to.
3. Probably the latter, I'd rather be able to share my music with everyone than be really good at it and only be able to share it with those who happen to be able to hear it live.

If you could live in any period of history, when would you live?

horny?

If technology is so great, why not say something like the year 3009? Technology will probably be even better then.

1) I'll have to think about that one.
2) No I played alto sax in middle school but quit.
3) After hosting HP Mafia, I think I may like the hosting aspect more now. Playing it always leaves with "what if the game was like this" kind of ideas, so it is a good way to make them real.
4) I'm not a very outdoorsy person, but I used to enjoy things like walking/biking. I need to start doing those things again.
5) I can only speak English

Okay, some more for you.

1) What do you want to be when you grow up?

1) I honestly have no idea yet. :\ I wish i did.
2) I have done some college at a community college, but I'm currently not taking any classes (because they cost too many moneys)
3) Still not srure :P
4) My favorite anime are probably Yoshitoshi ABe's "trilogy": Serial Experiments Lain, Texhnolyze, and Haibane Renmei. I recommend them all if you haven't seen any, Haibane Renmei is my favoritest <3
5) I don't know, really, but I assume nothing. :P
6) At this very moment I would buy beer and pizza.
7) I've not tried nearly enough to have a favorite, hand me the $10,000 and I'll try very hard to change that
8) I usually don't, but sometimes we plant vegetables and such in our backyard. I had a blue spruce but we don't own the land it's on anymore
9) All the ones from PA because I miss them.
10) Heavy Sun I guess, I'm tired of rainy/windy/snowy weather, and fog usually means it's at least a bit chilly.

Did you think I had left you for dead since I haven't asked you anything yet? (I didn't know you were up!)

I remember reading Logan's posts on PA.
I remember vomps posting in the JFF section on PA.

Matt - Have you ever gotten trapped in an elevator or a bathroom stall?

How much wood would you chuck if you could chuck wood?

1) the one thread in this forum that i'm too lazy to find the actual name of.
2) probably 2 at most.
3) 4 at most.
4) i dunno how much you can drink, but i think i'd bet on myself.
5) nope
6) they are normal toes mostly, except the nail on my big toe on my right foot grows weird, apparently my grandfather's grew the same way

Mongoose wrote:Matt - Have you ever gotten trapped in an elevator or a bathroom stall?

Nope, I can't remember ever being trapped in anything.

Vompatti wrote:How much wood would you chuck if you could chuck wood?

I can and have chucked wood and i can only chuck one piece at a time, but probably 100 or so pieces before i am bored/tired.

If you were forced to change your sig, what would your new one look like?

Metalmarsh89 wrote:If you were forced to change your sig, what would your new one look like?

I'm not sure, I've been trying to use Madoka/Fluttershy stuff here so probably that, but it could be some other pony/cutesy anime character.

Hey guys, it's time to interrogate Elohcin now. She is married to Rob, so there are doubtless a large number of dark secrets you can ask her about. And she has to be truthful because them's the rules.

Eloh, how did you get into baking? Are you self-taught or did you take classes or maybe a family member learnt ya up?

My book club has read some "philosophy" about baking being used as a positive coping mechanism or creative outlet, just like others might use painting or cardio. Do you find baking is a cathartic release for you or does it become more of a chore?

Is the term "Baker's Dozen" still relevant in today's times?

What is Rob?

Metalmarsh89 wrote:What is Rob?

I cannot even dang ole wait to see how she answers that one.

what's it like being married to an internationally known prog rocker?

Does Eloh sleep? I am not sure she does.

I have a question for Elohcin: why did you volunteer to be in the interrogation room and then not answer any questions?
