Would You Rather Questions: 211-220

211. Would you rather be royalty 1,000 years ago or an average person today?

Being royalty at any time seems like a really cool concept and experience. But, 1000 years ago? Like, 1025? I'm not sure how "beneficial" a life that would be. I'm fine being average today. I mean, aren't they already?

212. Would you rather lounge by the pool or on the beach?

Either is completely fine with me. But yeah, give me the beach. In the Caribbean, preferably. 

213. Would you rather wear the same socks for a month or the same underwear for a week?

This is...weird. I'll go for the shortest amount of time and wear the same underwear for a week. 

214. Would you rather work an overtime shift with your annoying boss or spend a full day with your mother-in-law?

Over time, with the annoying boss. Everyday. All the time. No doubt. Yup.

215. Would you rather cuddle a koala or play around with a panda?

There is no losing option here. I'm a big fan of both animals. Give me the "play" around option. I don't know exactly what that means, but if the end result means I can be cool with a Panda, it sounds dope. 

216. Would you rather have a sing-off with Ariana Grande or a dance-off with Rihanna?

Dance-off with Rihanna sounds fun. I have no chance, but being able to vibe with a fellow West Indian would instantly turn it into a party. 

217. Would you rather always have B.O. and not know it or always smell B.O. on everyone else?

Wow, this is a good one. I'll select the option of always smelling B.O. on everyone else. I ride the Subway in NYC in the summer - there are some days when that is the case. Hey, as long as it's not me! 

218. Would you rather watch nothing but Hallmark Christmas movies or nothing but horror movies?

My wife despises horror movies, so it's been a while since I've really watched one. Constant horror movies probably can get tiring really fast, likely mess with the psyche. Give me the Hallmark Christmas movies. They can be unintentionally comedic, as well as inspirational.

219. Would you rather always be 10 minutes late or always be 20 minutes early?

This is stupid. Who wants to be late? 20 minutes early. 

220. Would you rather spend a week in the forest or a night in a real haunted house?

Give me the forest. That can be cool. I'm not intentionally doing haunted house stuff...no, no. Not at all.

Dome Pondering Move Review: Say You Will (2017)

What is it about? A recent high school graduate cares for his mother while attempting to navigate his first relationship following his father's suicide.  Who is in it? Travis Tope - Sam Nimitz Katherine Hughes - Ellie Vaughn Favorite Scene: [spoiler alert] Sam plays his song for his mom. Favorite Quote: Ellie: "I wish we could have met down the road, maybe when we were like 27." Sam: "I think we needed each other now." Review:  Say You Will was an absolutely pleasant surprise of a watch from the Amazon Prime offerings.  I wasn't exactly sure what to expect with this one, but after the credits rolled, it was a movie that provided authentic characters and a great lesson on life. We don't always have to have everything figured out, and it's okay if you don't.  What makes Say You Will so beautiful is that all of the characters are carrying some inner struggle that connects them in the moment and time that helps them through whatever it is. The unlike...

Remembering Hulkamania

What a complicated mess this news leaves me in. Hulk Hogan. Dead. At 71. I was never a fan of Hogan (in the world of pro wrestling)…I was a Macho Man Randy Savage guy, and later on, a Bret Hart guy (and still am). But like every other wrestling fan from the ’80s through now, Hulk Hogan’s presence and legend are undeniable.  Terry Bolea transcended wrestling as Hulk Hogan and helped the art form take its first step into the mainstream of pop culture.  He later reinvented the business once again with the greatest heel turn ever at Bash at the Beach 1996. Many have changed the business once, but twice? Significantly?! Hogan’s run as Hulkamania and as Hollywood makes a case for the best to ever do it - I can't think of anyone on such a high level on both sides of the pro wrestling coin as a babyface and heel. Every pro wrestling Mount Rushmore (as dumb as these lists have become) includes Hulk Hogan, period. But Hogan is also so instrumental in my ever-evolving ability to separate...

Dome Pondering Movie Review: Hello, I Must Be Going (2012)

What is it about? A woman moves back in with her parents following a shocking divorce. An unlikely affair with a younger guy revives her life and perspective on marriage. Who is in it? Melanie Lynskey - Amy Christopher Abbott - Jeremy Blythe Danner - Ruth Favorite Scene: Amy's dad, who is often much easier on her than her mom, comes to her bedside and gives her some money. She refuses, then he insists. She then asks, "whose happiness are you buying?" Favorite Quote: Where the f** is 'bottom'? Where the motherf***ing f*** is motherf***ing 'bottom'? Review: Hello, I Must Be Going was an interesting watch. I've always found Melanie Lynskey to be an intriguing actor, and her role in this was just that.  What makes this film so interesting is that, going into the film, you believed this would be a film documenting Amy's journey from recent divorcee into...well, wherever it is she goes. The beauty of this film is that Amy's journey was just a public...
