    Jumbles, but I really don't like any of the three. If I'm going to be monkeying around with words I'd rather play Bananagrams or Scrabble.

    War Horse, Saving Private Ryan or Minority Report?

    War Horse, Original play please, although the film is not supposed to be that bad.

    Ed, Edd or Eddy?

    Ed. But I prefer the entire name.

    I saw War Horse last night and would give it a B. Spielberg has gotten just a little too heavy-handed in punching his audience's emotional buttons.

    Horses, mules or cows?

    Hmm, cows are what made us our money on the farm, so them.

    Tolkien, Lewis or Martin?

    It's super-close between him and Tolkien, but Lewis by a hair.

    Poe, Lovecraft, or King?

    King, definitely, but Poe and Lovecraft have a lot to offer, too. King has been better longer than either of them ever had the chance to be, alas.

    Vampires, werewolves or mummies?

    Mummies, because they're so totally ridiculous as figures of "horror" that they're always fun.

    Cheerleader, nurse or cocktail waitress?

    As a career, I guess I'd go for cheerleader. As a fetish? Um... cheerleader again.

    Astronauts, since their job doesn't inherently involve violence.

    I only have an iPod, and I love it, Og help me I love it so! 1900+ songs and counting - and I thought I'd stop after a coupla hundred. Yeesh.

    Saturday is the best because it is the most relaxing and there's still another day off after it.

    Morning, afternoon, or evening?

    Evening. I can hang out with my kid and chill, if all goes well.

    Hanging, stabbing or shooting?

    I'll pretend this is asking about what form of murder I prefer in mysteries, and will answer... stabbing.

    Democrat - if only by it being the least worst option.

    Conservative, Labour or Liberal Democrat?

    Uh, I dunno, Conservative, at least they seem to actually stand for something.

    Bourbon. I like an occasional glass (maybe two, three times a year?)

    BOURBON. I mean, NBC. The only show I watch on those 3 networks is Community.

    TNT, USA, or BBC America?

    BBC America, but even that, not very much. PBS is where I get most of my BritTV fixes.

    Vader, so long as I forget he was the annoying kid once.

    Hocks, preferably used to flavor a pot of collard greens. Otherwise, I'm not a huge ham fan.

    Merlot, cabernet, or pinot noir?

    Merlot, without a doubt. I'm no wine expert, but for me, there's nothing better with beef or pasta.

    Who cares, because every space object is interesting no matter what you call it.

    Hate 'em all. OK, algebra. That's the easiest of the three, right?

    ICE CREAM. The other two are pallid imitations.

    Cello. One of the very few instruments whose timbre can make me jealous.

    Figure skating, I guess, but I'm not crazy about any of them.

    Aliens. The idea of them fires my imagination; the other two are dull.

    Cholula. I've never had Sriracha, and Tabasco is OK but more heat than flavour.

    Aristotle, for his timeless observation, "The law is reason free from passion."

    Chimps. They're so cute, when they're not flinging their poop around or ripping your face off.

    Fillmore - all three were shitty Presidents, but Fillmore at least just fell into the job. The other two ran specifically so that they could be that bad.

    Isaiah. One of my favorite Bible passages is Isaiah 2:4:

    And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

    World, nation or community?

    Well, Midge is out of the equation entirely - she's not that cute, and I don't want Moose to kill me - but the choice between Betty and Veronica is a toughie. I guess Betty - she's sweeter than Veronica, has the same great figure, and isn't as high-maintenance. Veronica's filthy rich, but they say when you marry for money you earn every penny.

    Speaking of cute Archie Comics girls, I see Rule 34 is still in effect (NSFW): http://rule34.it/post/show/212883

    Reggie, Jughead or Moose?

    Jughead. I'm not overly familiar with the comics, and Jughead is the only name I recognize of the three.

    Gawain. Thomas Berger, in particular, wrote about him very entertainingly in Arthur Rex.
