When did you stop calling her the idiot stick figure with no soul?
THERE ARE SPOILERS FOR THE FINAL HARRY POTTER BOOK IN MY LAST ANSWER. BEWARE.
1) You can press a button that will make any one person explode. Who would you blow up?
At my discretion, I’d like to be able to blow up people who are mean to children.
2) You can flip a switch that will wipe any band or musical artist out of existence. Who will it be?
I just wish American Idol would stop being a show. That’s all.
3) Who would you really like to just punch in the face?
Dick Cheney. I’ve always wondered what his ugly mug would look like right before it connected with a fist.
4) What is your favorite cheese?
Parmesan.
5) You can only have one kind of sandwich. Every sandwich ingredient known to humankind is at your immediate disposal. What kind of sandwich will you eat?
Right now, I think I’d just like a plain ol’ grilled cheese.
6) You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go?
If you don’t know that the answer is London, we’re not friends — not even a little bit.
7) An angel appears out of heaven and offers you a lifetime supply of the beverage of your choice. It is?
Fresh squeezed lemonade.
8) Rufus appears out of nowhere with a time-traveling phone booth. You can go anywhere in the PAST. Where do you go?
The day my third grade teacher told me there was no Santa Claus. And I want to run up to the little, innocent Heather Anne sitting at her desk memorizing ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, and I want to cover up her ears. And then maybe I'll punch Ms. Hare in the face, too. Magic-stealing tart that she was.
9) You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society. You make the rules. What is the first rule you put into place?
No celebrity news. At all. Ever.
10) You have been given the opportunity to create the half-hour TV show of your own design. What is it?
I’d just be happy if NBC would pay the writers, so The Office can come back on.
11) What is your favorite curse word?
Son-of-a-bitch
12) One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by ZOMBIES. The zombies aren't really doing anything, what do you do?
Text Jennie and tell her to RUN!
13) Your house is on fire! What do you do?
Rescue Amy, Margaret, Nala, and as long as they’re not causing any trouble, the zombies.
14) The Angel of Death has descended upon you. Fortunately, the Angel of Death is pretty cool and in a good mood, and he offers you a half-hour to do whatever you want before you bite it. Whatcha gonna do in that half-hour?
Apparate to Salt Lake City. I know someone who has some jurisdiction there, and the Angel of Death will get probably get arrested and be forced to leave me alone. And since I’ll already be there, I might as well take in a Jazz game and go sledding. See some sights. Read a book. You know, whatever.
15) You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What super-power is it?
I will never understand why anyone would choose any power other than flying. Also, does anyone know where can I get said radioactive vegetables?
16) You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?
The morning I woke up in a Welsh farmhouse to the sound of my sister saying, “Where’s your camera? It’s SNOWING!”
17) You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be?
Last Christmas springs to mind rather quickly.
18) You got kicked out of the country for being a time-traveling heathen who has super-powers. But check this out you can move anywhere. Where are you going?
Wales.
19) If you were banned from every bar in the world except one, which one would it be?
I can’t imagine that being banned from bars would change my life very much. Unless by bars, you mean El Sombrero Mexican Restaurants. Because that? Would break my heart.
20) Hopefully you didn't mention this in the super-powers question... If you did, then we'll just expound on that. Check it out… Suddenly, you have gained the ability to fly! Whose house are you going to fly to first, and be like "Check it out I can FLY!?"
Whose house am I NOT going to? I can fly.
21) The constant absorption of magical moon beams mixed with the radioactive vegetables you consumed earlier has given you the ability to resurrect the dead famous person of your choice. So which celebrity will you bring back to life?
Lupin.
Comments
Lupin but not Tonks, right? So that Lupin can come marry me?

That was my exact train of thought, actually.

I can't believe you would save the zombies from the fire. I would straight up cut their heads off. You are too nice.
---
Only if they were non-threatening zombies, like how Angel was a non-threatening vampire on Buffy. If the zombies threatened you, though? I would kill them dead. (If anyone tries to kill you, you kill them right back.)

OK, but remember how Angel went evil that one time?
---
No, I'm not to that part yet. But when he goes bad, he goes back to good, right?
Posted by: Jennie! | December 17, 2007 11:56 AM
I'm not telling. I already just spoiled the Angel going evil thing. Oops.
Has Seth Green shown up yet? Cause he's my favorite.
---
Oh, it's okay. I am way behind the times on Buffy. It's not like you spoiled Harry Potter or anything. I am not to Seth Green yet, but maybe soon, because I am watching real fast on account of I am trying get an invitation to a Buffy-themed birthday party in February.

hi. good job on the spoiler; though i finished all 7 : ) I woulda brought back Sirius.
So, all I got is; an angel from heaven and all dear old gabe is gonna do is give me a drink? really? lame! though i bet thats gonna be one FINE glass of lem-o-nade... probably ruin it forever! Shoulda chosen one that you hate, cause from heaven, its gotta taste good!
---
You can thank Abigail for the spoiler warning. I didn't put one, but she came to your rescue. Amy would bring back Sirius, too. She loves him and she thinks he's very handsome. (In her head. Not Gary Oldman's Sirius.)
Posted by: sarah g | December 17, 2007 12:20 PM
I certainly did have a regular ol' grilled cheese for lunch. Yes I did.
---
Thanks for sharing, Tater. (You knew how c-c-cold I was!)
Posted by: Jenn The Sister | December 17, 2007 12:28 PM
Are we all constantly absorbing magical moonbeams or can they only be absorbed after eating radiocative vegetables?
When you go back to save the zombies, do you ask them to grab your Harry Potter books on the way out so that they are saved as well?
---
Kelly makes magical chicken soup by plucking the feathers of a live chicken by the light of a harvest moon, so maybe we should ask her about the moonbeams. And I think you are absolutely right about the zombies. I help them, they save my most important possessions. (I had a dream this weekend that all my books were burned in a tragic fire!)
Posted by: Jenn (the not-sister) | December 17, 2007 12:46 PM
But what about Colin Cree-hee-hee-vey?
(That was supposed to be the text-equivalent of sobbing. He was too young to fight, but not too young to die!)
---
I can't believe you're sobbing about Colin like that when we lost D-D-D-Dobby!
Posted by: srah | December 17, 2007 01:15 PM
Lupinnnn... out for a stroll in the moonlight?
---
That is my all-time favorite line in the Potter films. That and "Pity. Clearly fame isn't everything. Is it, Mr. Potter?"
Posted by: Abigail | December 17, 2007 01:26 PM
Awesome answers. If you find the radioactive vegetables, can you please tell me where they are too?
---
Absolutely!
Posted by: churlita | December 17, 2007 01:53 PM
Ah, see, despite an endless parade of food in my office this morning, now you've gone and made me want a a plain ol' grilled cheese.
---
Mint Meltaway? I've an entire box right here in my desk that I stole -- ah, er, received as a... gift.
Posted by: reddirtgirl | December 17, 2007 02:00 PM
well, thanks Abigail.
and.. what about Hedwig? I cried, I did.
---
I'm actually pretending that part didn't happen. Hedwig lives in my head. (Along with little Beth March.)
Posted by: sarah g | December 17, 2007 02:07 PM
Was there latin involved in the receiving of your a . . . gift?
---
Yes. But I am also interested in the receiving of a... gifts in Spanish.
Posted by: reddirtgirl | December 17, 2007 02:13 PM
Teaching the zombies that their 'lives' depend on the wellbeing of your Harry Potter books could only be a good thing.
And of course Beth March is still alive... at least that's how I remember it, from before I put it in the freezer.
---
I never start reading The Shining without making sure we’ve got plenty of room in the freezer.
Posted by: NTE | December 17, 2007 03:17 PM
I think this is my favorite line from all the movies:
"Hermione, you are honestly the most wonderful person I've ever met. And if I'm ever rude to you again..."
But I also love the Ootp trailer where they mush all the lines together into awesome.
---
I love the OotP trailer, but the GoF one was my favorite. Except the actual GoF movie was my worst. Which you know. So I won't start.

If I get a superpower, it's going to be the ability to control time, complete with stopping, fast-forwarding, rewinding, and everything. I'm so excited, because I'm pretty sure that "irradiated" means the same thing as "radio active", and they sell those at my local grocery!! And then? I'm going to rewind to just before Thanksgiving, where I am going to fly to DC, and then we'll pause. Maybe forever.
---
The LORD. Someone get Shari some superpowers, quick!
Posted by: shari | December 17, 2007 04:32 PM
Why did you remind me about Hedwig?!?! I'd blocked it out.
Dobby made me cry.
Of course I'd resurrect Sirius. Because clearly, he'd want to marry ME. (Sorry, Sarah G and Amy.)
---
Yeah, the place where Dobby died is literally crinkled up in my book, what with all the HUGE SOPPING TEARS falling onto the page when I read it. You and Sirius would make a fine couple, indeed.
Posted by: Jill | December 17, 2007 04:58 PM
My answer for the first 3 would be Celine Dion.
---
JEFF! No, sir. We have a strict no-punching-Canadians rule here at Heather Anne. You take that back right this minute.
