hot pink is nice


same question but substitute mercurochrome for both

the colour of mercurochrome?

I'd go with my skin sadly, because I could wear clothes and hide it. I couldn't stand looking at the walls.

penguins or puffins?

flip of the coin for the puffin. nothin' against penguins
grayhound
or
doberman

greyhound

stay home safe and asocial for New Year's Eve

or

stay home safe and asocial for New Year's Eve but feel lonely

the former choice, I totally do not grok those fools whoopin' and hollerin' in celebration of that which they know not [the new year].

rhyming poetry
or
freeform?

Freeform...because that’s what I did when I was younger.

I admire rhyming poetry, though.

Rhyme, or alliteration?

Alliteration

Alliteration or Assonance?

assonance is more sophisticated, and less obvious

Keats or Wordsworth?

Not v knowledgeable about either, once read Endymion, but found it a bit of a chore.

Conrad or Jack London?

I don't know London very well, but nor do I love Conrad. I suppose I'll pick Conrad. Flashbacks of my Modern Brit Lit night class replete with every scent, scratch in wood, creak of door. It ended 10.30 pm and I got to walk home by moonlight. The class was quite a nice sensory experience.

Pound or Woolf?

V little contact with the works of either. I recall Marc Bolan making an amusing remark about Pound in an interview c. Dec '71. Wasn't he a bit of a Hitler fanboy at one time (Pound, not Bolan, who was half-Jewish)?

Orwell or Huxley?

I believe he was (Pound).

Orwell. I taught Animal Farm for a few papers.

Jane Austen or a bowl of hot manure?

Never read any Jane Austen, but I'd have to prefer her over the alternative.

Alternative Politics or No Alternative?

No Alternative!

join a lobby or wait in a lobby?

Probably the latter, even though I'm not sure what it means...

Mr Blobby or Emmanuel Macron?

Wow, both are excruciating for me but despite that...

Wait in the lobby.
