You say Tomato...



I played this game last year with y'all, but it's always fun to play again.


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

Gin or vodka? [later note: I mean in your martini]
Beatles or Stones?
(and John or Paul?)
Butter or margarine?
PC or Mac?
Beach or mountains?
Sean Connery or Roger Moore?
Hardcover or paperback?

and so on.

It's always interesting to get some more input on Questions That Divide the World in Two. Jump right in- what are your answers, and what other questions tell you the most about a person?

For the record, my answers are: gin, Beatles, Paul, butter, both, beach, Sean Connery, & hardcover.

UPDATE: I dumped the regional variations, as most of them mean nothing to anyone else, and I wanted to have some room to add other people's additions to the main list.

Additions courtesy of Kaytie M. Lee:

Dog or Cat?
Prius or Hummer?
Cold or Hot? (weather, that is)
Cold or Hot? (beverages, that is)
Loft or Condo?

Cissy Strutt adds:

AFL or League?
Abbott or Costello? (no, not the funny ones)
Tassy or The Territory?
James Squire or James Boag?
Vegimite or Promite?

Kerstin- it finally came to me that what I meant by "gin or vodka" was the correct martini base -not a general drink preference. My apologies to everyone to whom that question seemed too limited.

Cissy Strutt said...

Vodka, Stones, John, Butter, Mac, Mountains, Connery, Sean Connery & Hard for Art, Paper for Fiction

I don't know what the questions "Loft or Condo" & "Prius or Hummer" mean. Well, I think I can sort of figure them out. Talk about your regional variations, we got us here a Continental Variation.

So let me ask -

AFL or League?
Abbott or Costello? (no, not the funny ones)
Tassy or The Territory?
James Squire or James Boag?
Vegimite or Promite?

Vodka for martinis, otherwise chilled tequila shots.
Beatles and John (Imagine!)
Butter.
PC.
Both. Nude beaches and mountains.
Sean Connery.
Hardcover without the sleeve.
Both dogs and cats.
Prius. The only good Hummer is a b.j.
Hot weather (swimming)
Cold beverages.
Loft, please.
Neither AFL or League.
Elvis Costello, for sure.
No opinion on any of the others, since none ring a bell.

Blech on the martini, so I'm still going with neither...but I like Sideon's chilled tequila shots. Patron silver please.
