Bart : He's been an enormous influence. Whatever he did, I studied, and then carefully did the opposite.
Wellbeyond : My mentor for debates. Then of course I got more confident and triumphed in the legendary Fact Vs Opinion debate (the one on the old Org).
RD Hull : wow.. I can't reveal what I learned because y'all are not ready.
KLHK : Again, I learned a lot by counter-imitation and sometimes imitation ("BigToe")
Moonbeam Anxiety : I learned you could bite without being mean.
Icenine : I gotta thank him for the "revelations". No, I won't say a word.

I'm forgetting some but this is a pretty good list.

IceNine said:

AzureStar - A set of anatomically-correct Icenine candles to burn during those long nights.
SkeletonKee : A seal of approval.
Superfunkyorgangrindersexy : This is a family site, so I'll just "joy".
Jdodson : A music box that plays Positivity.
Oceana/Tailgate : the original sand dollar -- totally restored and superglued!
Vagina/Natasha : A life-size, sex-able Prince doll.
Pook : A membership to the World of Bananas Club.
UglyBrownEyes : a stress-ball shaped like Oceana's head.
Matt :a new haircut.
Ben : Catalan lessons
Natsume :A box of chocolate.

Better than any gift Santa ever brought me

Aerogram said:

You'll need a lot of wax!

new haircut? lol...oh my...must not disturb the interview...spitting out food...must stop...lol


okay okay, back to the questions...


aero,

what would you consider to be the single most important event in history? and which event has most impacted you personally?

SkletonKee said:

The invention of the wheel. Before that, people just had to pull at things with all the friction from the ground, such their lovely wife (unless they carried her over the shoulder) like...



As for the one event that personally affected me, I'll have to say 9/11 was the biggest, most shocking thing I ever witnessed. Although I did not lose anyone, something crumbled to ghte ground in myself that day.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen... we awake refreshed to continue our discussion with the legendary Aerogram.

Hello, Aerogram... I trust you slept well? Did our people provide you with the necessary breakfast items and condiments? Excellent...

Shall we continue? Great!


You are an outspoken person who excercises great restraint in his posting... so I think that a lot of orgers might have missed your social/political leanings...

In relation to American politics, which political party would your views be most closely aligned with and why would you choose that particular party?

Libertarian Party (as is your host)
Republican Party
Green Party
The Reform Party
Democratic Party

IceNine said:

Libertarian are just libertine librarians, so they are out. Unfortunately, I almost never vote FOR someone, always AGAINST. And at this stage, I guess I'd do the obvious and vote for the rotten Dems, so that I don't have to endure George Bush bad cowboy acting ("He forgot the GREATEST COUNTRY IN DA WORLD was after him", said in an over-relaxed, self-satisfied pose at the podium)

In truth, I must now leave the premises for a previous engagement, but feel free to line up the questions. Ask me about whatever you want, no matter how sordid or -- gasp -- intellectual!

Okay, let's say that you were stranded... Donner party style... with ten other org members...

Who would you eat first and why?

BillySparxxx
Aaron
Pook
Oceana/Tailgate
UglyBrownEyes
GooeyTheHamster
BattierBeMyDaddy
SkeletonKee
AzureStar
Nep2nes

or (for a bonus snack)

SuperFunkyOrganGrinderSexy

How would you rank these sports, top to bottom?

Boxing
Football
Baseball
Basketball
Soccer
Wrestling
Auto Racing
Tennis
Figure Skating
Masturbation

XxAxX said:

XxaxX, I would not turn u down

why thank you

XxAxX said:

U're welcome

Aerogram...

Being Canadian, what is your stance on Poutine being sold at fast food restaurants?

Also, how are you able to spend so much time on the Org while fighting a legal battle against Nestle, Inc. to have your likeness put back on the Aero chocolate bar packaging?

IceNine said:

I'd probably be eaten first by two of these people, and I won't say who.

Next question.

Okay... moving right along...

Next question:

Has this painting been an influence on your posting style or your eating habits?

Another important question:

What characteristics do you feel best define you as a person? Good and bad...

IceNine said:

First, let's eliminate masturbation, because it's not a sport. It's hygiene. It's proven that horniness interferes with concentration. If we can ban all masturbation, workers everywhere would be constantly thinking hot sex, and pretty soon the hotels, closets and storage rooms would be filed with workers busy working the p. instead of contributing to our economic well-being. We'd tailspin into a mega depression that would only be offset by the resulting baby boom.



The following sports are ranked from best to worst :


Figure Skating (not that I like watching it, but it does have everything - it requires endurance, confidence, artistry and flexibility)

Hockey! (it wasn't in your list!)
Wrestling (greco-roman!)
Soccer (they should trim the shorts)
Basketball (they should ducking trim the shorts)
Football
Baseball
Tennis
Auto Racing

Aerogram said:

I cannot understand how I could have forgotten hockey... sometimes being a talk show host is not the easiest thing in the world...

I apologize to all of the hockey fans out there and ask your forgiveness for this egregious error.

applekisses said:

I think Poutine should be slapped with a health care tax. Banning it outright would be foolish. It would just create another market for the bikers.

As for your second question, the answer is that i'm amazingly focused and productive. I don't let the legal stuff get to me -- I let Londel handle that. Nestle argues that they had to take off my avatar from the package because some people thought it was satanic imagery. That's ludicrous when everybody knows I don't believe in heaven or hell.

IceNine said:

Yes indeed. When I saw that painting as a boy, I went to my parents and told them that I could hear much better if I had ears like that. They told me it was actually butchered cattle, which was really traumatic.And here I am... still scarred.

Aerogram said:

Just make sure I get the bottom half

IceNine said:

I'm very critical of myself. I guess you could say that is both good and bad. Good because I would hate to be one of those jerks that never question anything they do. Bad because it makes me doubt everything I do even when everyone else is saying it's great.

What? Did you really expect me to say I'm pompous, self-centered and self-indulgent?

Aerogram said:

Well... I have never seen you as a pompous ass and I don't think that anyone who has ever read your posts would consider you an ass either, so your answer was on point.

Next question:

What is your opinion of self-righteous individuals who believe that their opinion or view is so much better than everyone else's? Have you ever felt like teaching them a lesson by attacking them with a logical argument that leaves them trapped by their own dogma?

IceNine said:

It is normal to believe your opinion has at least a slight edge, otherwise you wouldn't hold it or defend it. It is a good thing that not all people conform when they are in the minority. So it's important to take some of our beliefs and opinions seriously. That doesn't mean you have to go around believing you are infaillible. The more passionate you are, the more important it becomes to take a step away from your passion and look at other logical possibilities. It could be that your passion is slowly building walls around you that hides other aspects.

In other words, it's ok to have strong opinions, as long as you don't behave like it's a dogma to which everyone in their right mind should conform.

I've taught and learned my share of lessons. I rarely take on someone with whom I feel there is no possibility of dialogue. And when I do find something offensive enough to entertain a "lesson", it usually turns out that the person is heavily baiting, so it's kind of boring. A few have done so arrogantly enough to get my attention, but they have been rarer.. in fact practically non-existent.

Rank the following bands in order of your preference:

The Smiths
Oasis
The Beatles
Depeche Mode
The Cure
Echo and the Bunnymen
Suede
The Only Ones
