What has two thumbs and is a fan of Xanga’s “Featured Question”?
If you guessed “Sylvia” then BZZT! You’re totally wrong.
I actually find the “Featured Question” thing very stupid. If its purpose is to give writer’s-block-stricken bloggers some topics to ponder, then fine…but what’s the deal with featuring the most trite, over asked questions in the history of the planet? I mean, who hasn’t had to debate about abortion, animal testing, religion in schools, affirmative action, legalizing marijuana, same-sex marriage, evolution, etc. as part of a high school assignment? These types of questions have been asked and answered, then reasked and reanswered a billion times (I’m underestimating, I know)–who cares what your answer is now? There is a 50/50 chance you will say nay or yea, and a 100% chance that your arguments are completely unoriginal.
Rather than read some regurgitated brain diarrhea, I’d like to read some fresh brain diarrhea on the following topics:
1. Have you ever ogled someone you found extremely hot, only to discover (to your horror or pleasure) that this person was actually related to you?
2. What is the consistency and odor of smegma, and how the hell does a guy even get that dirty?
3. Where does the Muffin Man live? Is it “Cadbury Lane” or “Drury Lane”? (Seriously, what is it–it’s driving me insane.)
4. Is House really going to pick a new team, or is his old one going to return to him? (Personally, I like the Chase, Cameron, Foreman trio–but that Kumar guy is hot and I’d like him to stay on the show.)

i dig your new layout – it’s simply cool.

1. no
2. dont know
3. i checked for the muffin man on google maps and actually its:
15 S D and H AveRiverside, PA17868
Get Directions
the closest match to cadbury lane was the following:
Ukulele World -
815 Chadbury Ln, Seabrook, TX
4. i stopped watching house lately
we tried to ask more controversial questions last week – interestingly, they weren’t as popular and well received.
interesting questions… i’ll pass them along.
i always thought it was mulbery lane
I had a professor who gave out “dullard prompts” weekly to students who hadn’t participated enough in classroom discussions. that’s what those featured questions remind me of.
1. Yes, but we’re cool with it.
2. Rancid.
3. Drury lane, no matter what anyone says.
4. He’s going to get a new team.
Also, I concur that the featured questions are mind-numbingly inane subjects that have already been beaten to death on every other forum in the known world.
Yes, some tribe in South America that goes naked and only speaks in clicks (Don’t they all?) has discussed legalizing marijuana and abortion. And this happened in 1983.
1. god, i hope not.
2. not washing.
3. According to wikipedia, Druly Lane where the brothels are.
4. Never seen an episode of house. The House character annoys me.
how dedicated of you to still be on here! it’s been forever for me. i don’t even know what a ‘featured question’ is and where to find it, haha.
I see your point, although, I personally, find the featured question pretty fun.
1. Sort of. I count as related to myself, right?
2. Smegma’s a natural occurrence on all mammal genitalia as a cleaning and lubricating agent. So it’s not just guys. Health factors and poor hygiene contribute to the unhealthy build up, which is described as “cheesy” in appearance and texture, and “unpleasantly cheese-like” in odor. I guess it looks good enough to eat, but doesn’t smell so great? Someone else can test that theory.
3. The Muffin Man lives on Drury lane. It’s the Muffin’ Man who lives on Cadbury lane. Don’t visit him. There’s a large difference between muffins and muffing.
4. House got too formulaic for me. Just try to imagine what they think you wouldn’t think they’d do, and that’s what they’ll do. Umm. Yeah.
I just answered these non-featured (so far) questions, and you can too!
Featured question sounds too much like HOMEWORK … and not yummy ChemE homework with nutritious assumptions and filling equations … it’s the BORING english homework that have no right answer save the answer that the teacher thinks is correct.
1) Yeah but she is my half cousin and not biologically related … she is smoking hot, super fun and super nice to be around. She is the coolest female cousin I have =D.
2) Hmmm …. probably consistency of cream cheese … slightly dried … smells like pee if you must know … please don’t ask to describe exactly HOW I am able to tell … thank you. It’s not dirty … the penis do excrete lubrication to pick up dirt and bacteria, as long as the guy showers everyday and cleanse that section of the body, it’s not a big deal.
3) I don’t know who that person is =/
4) No idea, I stopped watching TV for months now … I get obsessive about shows in that I will wait till the season is over … go download every episode then watch them all in a marathon.
what’s House?
