Would You Rather: Questions 131-140

131. Would you rather watch a movie at home or go to the movies?

Well, this is already an interesting question. I haven't been to the movies for nearly thirteen years. Yes, it's true. I'm sure I'll enjoy the movies experience one again one day, but for now, enjoying movies from the comfort of my couch, cheaper food, and being able to pause if needed - I'll take that. 

132. Would you rather fight alongside the Starks from Game of Thrones or the Avengers?

I know nothing about Game of Thrones. I like The Avengers, so I'm rolling with that squad. They also just feel cooler. 

133. Would you rather binge-watch an entire TV series show or binge-watch a movie series?

I truly believe movies deserve time to settle and digest after viewing them. I recently watched the entire Harry Potter series this Spring, and that was also the case - one-a-day. I'll binge the TV shows because they're shorter, and have more continuity in their creative intent than movie series. 

134. Would you rather marry Jim Halpert from The Office or Jack Dawson from Titanic?

I love The Office. Give me Jim Halpert. Have you seen the way he treats Pam? 

135. Would you rather be a member of the Plastics or a member of the Breakfast Club?

Both are great movies. But the Plastics were just outright mean. I couldn't live that life. Plus, the Breakfast Club is the kind of depth and deep dialogue I would enjoy in High School. 

136. Would you rather spend money on a streaming service or a movie ticket?

See above. Give me a streaming service. More options. 

137. Would you rather be stuck in an elevator for 3 hours with Jess from New Girl or Gloria from Modern Family?

I really never found Modern Family funny. It had a few moments, but it wasn't my thing. New Girl on the other hand is a regular in-the-background-watch favorite of mine. Love the crew from the loft. So yeah, give me Jess. 

138. Would you rather have Michael Scott from The Office or Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation as your new boss?

Ugh - one of the hardest questions, yet. I love both shows. However, Leslie Knope gets EVERYTHING done. Like, everything. Give me Knope. 

139. Would you rather attend Hogwarts or Bayside? 

I honestly want to say Hogwarts. Because, you know, I'm now down with Potter after this past Spring. However, Hogwarts is always under attack, and quite frankly, way too many events that question the safety of those who attend there occurs. 

Bayside, well, those kids did it all. I'm going there. 

140. Would you rather dance with Johnny Castle from Dirty Dancing or have Patrick Verona sing to you ala 10 Things I Hate About you? 

While they killed it in Dirty Dancing, something about the age difference creeped me out about Johnny Castle. I wasn't buying him and Baby at all. 

Patrick Verona singing while evading campus safety in front of a college-campus-like high school - that's dreamy. So dreamy.

Oakland Deserved Better - Goodbye, Oakland Athletics

Sports provide many great opportunities, core moments, and most importantly, threads our lifetime (and sometimes generations) in a manner that we just can't sometimes explain. It's in our blood! And often, that very much feels like scientific truth.  However, it's specific periods like this where sports can be the opposite - cold, unfair, dishonest, and heartbreaking. What happened to the Oakland Athletics is just that. It's all of those adjectives and more. At the very base level, it's infuriating and depressing.  I felt the same when I watched the Seattle Supersonics get jettisoned to Oklahoma City. I still can't believe that was an actual move! I had similar feelings when the Chargers and Rams were ripped from cities that adorned them for the hopeful dreams of Los Angeles. And now, those feelings are here again for the city of Oakland - who now watch their Athletics leave town after losing their Warriors and their Raiders in previous years.  It's the ug

Yankees 2024 World Series - Ponderings and Stuff

I thought I would try something different for the 2024 World Series, especially since my Yankees are in it, and offer some quick ponderings and share some stuff from my thought process. Why not?  I expect a tough and arduous series. In many ways in approaching it, I would be shocked if this goes five or fewer games to either side. Obviously, I wouldn't mind if it happened for the Yankees.  Whoever wins, maybe they should also get claim to the 2017 World Series title. I'm kidding. Sort of... Game 1 Dodgers d. Yankees, 6-3  (LAD Leads Series 1-0) This is one of those games where I love baseball, but I hate it. That was a tremendous game if I didn't have a rooting interest. However, I do. And baseball, by nature, has a flair for creating moments that can rip your heart out as a fan. This one did. It's up there, to be honest. In this time, it feels worse than Sandy Alomar's home run off of Mo in 1997. But likely to not leave me in my feelings like the 2001 World Series

Knicks Trade is Great - However, Julius Got Us Here

I purposely took some time before posting on this recent trade. It came out of absolutely nowhere and left me in shock on that fateful Saturday night - even though, every Knick fan knew a Julius Randle trade was inevitable. Karl-Anthony Towns is an amazing talent. He’s All-NBA. He’s an All-Star. And in many ways, he’s a very, very, very unique and select talent. Also yes, he has flaws. Who doesn't in today's debate-anything landscape?  For pure basketball reasons, Towns as a Knick makes sense. The spacing is better. The options are better. The style of play is better defined. And the opportunity for the ultimate, an NBA championship, is increased. However, this trade gets all the feels when we focus on Julius Randle. If you follow this little slice of the internet, you probably have gathered that I’ve been a loyal Randle supporter since arriving in 2010. His potential was there. Yes, he’s been frustrating. There were moments of high-level frustration. But Randle has been our gu
