This week’s Puerile Five

Jan 23, 2004 10:37


It’s weeks like this when I wonder why I bother…
At this moment, what is your favorite... Sorry to disappoint you, but I generally don’t have a single favorite thing in any category. Having lived a pretty rich and eventful life, there are many things that I appreciate deeply, and trying to pick just one song or food would be to deny the pleasures of all the thousands of others. I think your questions show a lack of maturity, a narrow point of view, and a closed mind.
  ...song? Nope. No one favorite song. Hundreds. Each year since 1991 I’ve made a compilation of my favorite songs of that year, and limiting myself to just a dozen is difficult enough. Now picking and choosing one out of those hundreds of favorites would be utterly impossible.
  ...food? Same answer. How can you possibly decide between roasted corn on the cob versus aloo mutter versus Corrugated Fun™? It’s a pointless waste of time and a sign of immaturity to try.
  ...tv show? Fuck you. Do you ever get out of your little Habitrail?
  ...scent? A year and a half ago you asked the same question, and I answered here.
  ...quote? If I had one, I’m certain it would be one of my own.
