You say Tomato...


The answers to some questions tell you a lot about a person-

Gin or vodka?
Beatles or Stones?
(and John or Paul?)
Butter or margarine?
PC or Mac?
Beach or mountains?
Sean Connery or Roger Moore?

I was working on a post related to that last question (well, actually about the brouhaha surrounding the casting of the new Bond, Daniel Craig), but I thought it would be interesting to get some more input on Questions that divide the world in two.

There are always regional variants. Around here we have-

Red Sox or Yankees?
Cape Cod or Cape Ann?
New Hampshire or Vermont?

and so on.

Jump right in. What question tells you the most about a person?

All-American, fully leaded, blast-off-your-brain, rot-your-guts, stains-your-teeth coffee or wussie, effete, comes-in-floral-flavors, pinkie-pointing, prissy-ass tea?

Mike- yeah, around here that would translate to Harvard vs. Yale. The best thing about Harvard Yale games is that pocket flasks are required equipment for spectators.

Phoebe- remember, if we drink tea THE TERRORISTS WIN!

U of A or ASU?
Pro-choice or Pro-Life?
Gay or straight?
Republican or Democrat? i.e., State Senator Ken Bennet or Governor Janet Napolitano?
And on Prescott's infamous Whiskey Row - no smoking to save our lives from first and second hand smoke caused cancer or freedom to operate our businesses as we want to?

Catalyst- good ones.

Something there made me think of one that should have leapt to mind earlier-

hardcover or paperback?

and then there would be-

-burial or cremation?
-in a Chinese retaurant, fork or chopsticks?
-on the rocks or straight up?
-Michael Jackson- guilty or innocent?

CKW- well, DUH!!! Blonds or redheads. You'd think I'd have figured that one out, with FB being a redhead and my well-documented fascination with Marcia Cross...
