My Plex server, but Netflix otherwise. What is Plex?

7. Favorite Brownie Piece: Middle, Corner, Edge? 
middle or edge I thought this was the obvious choice too but Corner/Edge combined for like 45% of the votes

9. Hard or Soft Taco? 
Soft. This is another important question everyone should have correct. I agree much to your surprise I'm sure, although a broken hard taco is really just nachos

11. Favorite Cereal? 
Krave, tried it once, it was terrible

12. Favorite Season? 
already answered, excuse the hell outta me

15. Which of these would be the TOUGHEST to give up for the rest of you life? Cheese, Red Meat, Coffee, Chocolate, Alcohol, Ice Cream. 
Red meat, probably, this was by far the toughest question we had and sparked a large discussion

16. Favorite Basic Ice Cream Flavor? Vanilla-Chocolate-Strawberry? 
A good quality vanilla is the best of the basic flavors. Chocolate the best when flavors are mediocre, agreed plus I think you can do alot more with vanilla as well

17. Favorite Breakfast Food? Breakfast Sandwich, Eggs/Omelets, France Toast, Bacon/Sausage/Ham, Biscuits & Gravy, Cereal/Yogurt, Pastries, Pancake/Waffles. 
Wait. Who the hell calls it France toast? whoops

23. Favorite Super Hero? 
Does TMNT count? they didnt make the list, was more of a DC/Marvel question I think

30. Scariest Horror Film Character? Hannibal Lecter, Michael Myers, Jigsaw, Freddy Krueger, Leatherface, Jason Voorhees? 
Kreuger, thats what I thought too. He kills you in your sleep...

36. Favorite Original Starburst Color? Red-Pink-Yellow-Orange? 
Pink- this is another runaway. Had no idea Pink was so popular

It’s a personally hosted server that I have full of my entire personal collection of movies.

Soft. This is another important question everyone should have correct. I agree much to your surprise I'm sure, although a broken hard taco is really just nachos

If you’re having nachos, you should just fully commit to it imo. No need to make a hard shell taco. Bake up some corn tortillas in the oven with some oil, get them crispy, and make some nachos if you want nachos. Keep them soft if you are gonna eat a taco.

Almost equally important question is corn vs flour. The correct answer is corn for tacos, but people should also routinely get fajitas, which should use flour.

You gotta let the milk soak into it a bit so it softens up. That’s when it hits GOAT tier.

I’m definitely a Marvel >>>> DC guy

When I was reading comics, I really liked X-Men. So probably Wolverine for in the comics. On screen, Iron Man or maybe Deadpool.

Is it kind of a bell curve with Krave @pwny? Like the longer is sits doesn’t it eventually get terrible like most cereals

Yeah. Mediocre dry, legit GOAT after 3-5 minutes in milk, and bad again when it hits a good amount of time in the milk. But it’s hard to leave it that long. Because in that middle slot, it’s too good to not just shovel it in.

Nows the perfect time to try a new cereal, so sick and tired of the same thing

1. If you could be on any game show what would it be?

I wanna say Jeopardy, because it's my fav by far.  But i don't like my odds of winning big there.  I'd want to go on some other show i hate and try my hand at randomly winning tons of money probably.  But i'd actually still want to go on Jeopardy and see how i do.

 

2. Favorite Streaming Service?

Netflix i guess.  I hate the wild proliferation of streaming services more than anything.  We don't need a hundred and fifty different services.  We need one, nationalized streaming service to really win.

 

3. Favorite Girl Scout cookie?

The Vanilla ones.  Idk what they're called, but they're basically the only cookie i actually like.  I'm very much not into cookies, but it's either GG vanilla Oreo types, fresh Subway chocolate chip cookies or bust.

 

4. Favorite mediocre holiday staple of the following: Candy Cane-Candy Corn-Peeps-Conversation Hearts

Those all suck hard.  But Candy-Cane, because you can put it in a hot chocolate with a ton of Peppermint Vodka or something, and its okay.

 

5. Favorite sheet cake icing/cake combo? Vanilla-Vanilla, Vanilla Chocolate, Chocolate-Vanilla, Chocolate-Chocolate?

Vanilla, and French Vanilla, for an exotic twist.

 

6. Favorite Christmas Movie?

No idea.  I don't like Christmas movies.  Probably one of the hundred various Hallmark movies i've watched around Christmas-time.

 

7. Favorite Brownie Piece: Middle, Corner, Edge

Middle.  Edge is fine, but i don't really need the crisp of an edge piece if the brownies are made right.

 

8. Favorite and Least Favorite Candy of the following: Reeses Cups, Kit Kat, Twix, Milky Way, Snickers, M&Ms

Reese Cups the runaway fav.  I don't even know what a Milky Way tastes like, so i'll go there.  But Twix are kinda bad too.

 

9. Hard or Soft Taco?

Soft taco, obvs.  Hard tacos are literally impossible to eat.  There's also just like nachos if that crunch is what you're after.  You can put anything on them.

 

10. Favorite character from "The Office"?

I feel like it's silly, based on the American version to not just say Michael Scott.  He is that show.  It doesn't work without him at all.  But i probably identify most with Toby tbh.

 

11. Favorite Cereal?

Cereal is gross.  I don't like any of it.

 

12. Favorite Season?

Should i pick a different one this time, for more intrigue?

 

13. Favorite Breakfast Sandwich Bread? Bagel, Croissant, Biscuit, English Muffin, Toast

I don't really like breakfast sandwiches.  Bagels are my go-to morning bread, with some cream cheese.  But i don't ever have the appetite in the morning for a real sandwich.  If i do go for a big first meal after sleeping in or something...i do like a Croissant with a cured ham and cheese.  But that's more of a brunch thing.  Breakfast for me is usually just a bowl of yogurt and a piece of fruit tbh.

 

14. If you could have any 1 of these super powers what would you choose? Fly-Hear Peoples Thoughts-Invisibility-Super Speed-Talk to Animals-Super Strength

Invisibility, easy.  Don't give a **** what animals are "thinking".  Super Strength is like a weird he man macho useless power when the world has a million cranes and forklifts and stuff.  Super speed is kinda appealing, but things already happen fast enough imo.

Hearing people's thoughts sounds so annoying.  I don't even like being locked in my own head with my own thoughts.  I don't want other people just constantly intruding like that...nor do i want to constantly intrude on other people's thoughts.

Being invisible sounds sweet.  Just like an invisible tourist.    Hop on a plane or boat or whatever for free. 

 

15. Which of these would be the TOUGHEST to give up for the rest of you life? Cheese, Red Meat, Coffee, Chocolate, Alcohol, Ice Cream

Alcohol, on account of probably physical dependency.  But cheese is like...yikes.  I might die anyway.

 

16. Favorite Basic Ice Cream Flavor? Vanilla-Chocolate-Strawberry

Vanilla.  I'm not a big ice cream fan tho.

 

17. Favorite Breakfast Food? Breakfast Sandwich, Eggs/Omelets, French Toast, Bacon/Sausage/Ham, Biscuits & Gravy, Cereal/Yogurt, Pastries, Pancake/Waffles

I mean, the obvious answer is Omelets because any good one basically contains the other things.

But breakfast to me, is still just like a cup of yogurt and some fruit.  Or maybe a bagel and cream cheese.

 

18. Better TV Show: Friends or Seinfeld?

F.R.I.E.N.D.S.  It's a legendary show that everyone knows and has actually influenced culture.  Seinfeld maybe did that too, but for a generation prior to mine.  I just never got into Seinfeld until well after the fact.  

 

19. Favorite Easter Candy? Cadbury Eggs, Chocolate Bunny, Jelly Beans, Peeps, Robins Egg

Bacon.

 

20. How many "chuggas" are needed before "Choo Choo"

2 Chuggas if you're gonna do a Choo Choo.  Otherwise, your engine isn't running smoothly on all cylinders.

Ask like fav engine configuration, or fav V8 firing order or something if you want to really learn something.

 

People who do too many chuggas are still psychopaths tho.

 

21. How do you like your caffeine?

Used to be Coca Cola to an unhealthy degree.  Coffee when it was there in the morning.

 

Now i like my caffeine in a Tea.  Earl Grey.  Hot.  Or in a coke slushie.

 

22. Favorite Chocolate? Milk-Dark-White-None

Dark.

 

23. Favorite Super Hero

The Hood Guy.

 

24. Favorite Assorted Chocolate filling

Custard filled chocolates are the dream.  The rest basically suck a lot.  I don't even like chocolate that much to begin with.

 

25. Favorite Type of Peanut?

Smooth, because i'm not a lunatic.  Obviously.

 

26. Is Die Hard a Christmas Movie?

Die Hard is wildly overrated.

 

27. Favorite Thanksgiving Food?

Turkey.  It ain't thanksgiving without it.

 

28. Favorite Color?

Still Blue. 

 

29. Favorite Soup?

Tomato.  

 

30. Scariest Horror Film Character? Hannibal Lecter, Michael Myers, Jigsaw, Freddy Krueger, Leatherface, Jason Voorhees

None of those are "scary".  There's a different genre of film that actually scares me.

 

31. Do you like Candy Corn?

No.  Gross.  I've never had it before buy gross.  No.  Why would anybody like that?

 

32. Favorite Mario Kart Character?

Toad.  I heard "he's the best".  He's like Yoshi for enlightened folks...but faster.  Just have to diamond the corners and lengthen the straights and you're the best.

 

33. Favorite Pizza Topping?

Pepperoni.  It's THE topping.  As long as we're not including like...cheese.

 

34. Favorite Dessert? Cake-Ice Cream-Pie-Cookies

Can i trade this **** for something from a different question?  Literally could live the rest of my life without any of these stupid things.

 

35. How do you eat PB&J? Between Grape/Strawberry/Other Jelly and Crunchy or Creamy Peanut Butter?

Strawberry jelly, smooth Peanut Butter.  It's not good, but i'll eat.

 

36. Favorite Original Starburst Color? Red-Pink-Yellow-Orange?

Literally anyone who says anything other than Red is a narc.

 

I do enjoy a nice Red-Yellow mix sometimes.  But Red is the supreme Starburst, and anyone who claims otherwise is a heretic.

 

37. Favorite large pizza chain? Dominos-Papa Johns-Pizza Hut-Little Caesars

Pizza Hut.  On the strength of stuffed crust mostly.  Their boneless wings are also kinda dope.  But even their pan pizza is better than others.  Dominos main feature is that it's cheap and quick, but the crust just ain't there.  Little Caesars as far as i'm concerned, exists solely to give me Krazy Bread and stuffed versions thereof, which are fantastic.  Papa Johns is probably the best pizza place of them all...but whatever the **** they do to their food...i always need to eat like a billion Tums afterwards for some reason.  There's some weird **** in their food.

 

38. Besides Apple, what is your favorite pie flavor?...I think we assumed Apple would runaway with it so we didn't include it

Boston cream.  The best pie.  Obviously.  Way the heck better that Apple Pie which actually sucks.

 

39. Favorite Movie from 1994? Lion King-Forrest Gump-Shawshank Redemption-Pulp Fiction-Dumb & Dumber

 

Forrest Gump.  It was a generational movie.  Everyone knows it.  Everyone knows that life is like a box of chocolates...

Soft. This is another important question everyone should have correct

I concur, but also...why is it so important?

Wait. Who the hell calls it France toast?

That's a darn good question.  Unless you're like European and call it Eggy Bread and make it that way and it actually vaguely re-enters the arena as a top breakfast food.

32. Favorite Mario Kart Character? 
Donkey Kong

So you're one of those people?

There's a chance you work with a bunch of actual aliens from another planet.  Like, you need to watch you back bro.

Because I felt like being a Mexican food snob. And authentic tacos seem to only ever come in soft corn tortillas. But everyone should do what they want.
