The person below me

[Box Burner]

Didn't know bagels were supposed to be boiled before baking. How can you tell the difference?


TPBM knows how to make unleavened bread.

[C187]

I know how to put the package and the other things into the bread making device and press the button. Does that count?

TPBM has more then one single function device in their kitchen.

[Eric]

Yes. Knives, forks, mandoline, spoons, bowls... nothing is single function if you're creative and know how to use them


tpbm is craving food that you can only get one time a year, even in this day and age


(note: when you boil a bagel it partially cooks the outer layer before baking, giving the proper ratio of chewy crust to dense interior, because not as much water can escape when baked. If it's only baked, it's just round bread. Trust me, if you've ever had a real bagel you can tell the difference)

[maryanimal]

Yes! My Sicilian mom and grandma would make cannoli at Christmas. We couldn't eat any until after the family dinner. Along with family and friends, we would have over 75 people coming and going at Christmas. and those cannoli they use to make are the best in the world!

Tpbm left the gun and took the cannoli.

[theCryptofishist]

Naw. That movie kinda sucked.
TPBM thought that Wizard of Oz was overrated.

[teenytinytatertots]

Naw. That movie kinda sucked.
TPBM thought that Wizard of Oz was overrated.

False, i love that movie and even own a Dorothy dress and ruby red sequin converse.

TPBM is eating cereal while naked.

[Savannah]

I am eating beef vegetable soup while clothed.

The person below me is topless and eating lobster thermidor.

[9ah]

I'm allergic and wouldn't dare eat those scary lil creatures.

TPBM has never broken a bone (that they are aware of or as confirmed by a doctor)

[Roberto Dobbisano]

mine or other peoples?

tpbm knows the sound...

[Eric]

Nah, it happened on-playa at 4am or so, I wasn't in a condition to hear it (or realize it until I woke up later - oops).


tpbm has plans afoot, but can't figure out if they're evil or not.

[theCryptofishist]

All my plans are evil. None of my plans are a foot.
TPBM has a pit bull that loves to chew.

[Elorrum]

No, but I am trying to figure a way to have a pet of some sort. Mostly one that would recognize me if I were in the room.
tpbm is between pets.

[Roark]

One is a pet draft horse, the other is a pet quarterhorse. And you best not stay between them very long!

The person below me dances with wolves

[Savannah]

They call me "Dances with Geeks".

The person below me howls at the moon.

[9ah]

Only because of TV of the Radio.

TPBM loves extreme weather conditions.

[Savannah]

I do! I love heavy rain, thunder and lightning, high heat, blizzards, & hail. (Living in the Northwest, I usually only get the rain, and have to travel for the rest).

The person below me is a creature only of the sun.

[theCryptofishist]

Not really. As I age, a bit more. Hope to remain a creature of the ocean.
TPBM had a crush on Michael Jay Fox.

[ygmir]

negative
TPBM would rather live in a truly (hasn't happened yet) communist nation.

[Box Burner]

Well yes. But a truly communist nation hasn't existed since before the advent of agriculture. There are tribes... but they are being "saved" by christians.



TPBM likes dark chocolate.

[Eric]

I like about 65% dark, depending on the brand. The Boyfriend goes up to about 85% dark, the wife likes milk chocolate.


tpbm is glad they don't have to remember the preferences of two spouses

[Savannah]

I could do so easily, but it I doubt it will ever be necessary.

The person below me loves gummi candy.

[9ah]

I do!! Especially sour gummies.

TPBM has never been skydiving.

[TomServo]

I have never been skydiving! And as delightful as it sounds, I don't plan to. I'll stay in the plane, thank you!

TPBM has flown over BRC.

[theCryptofishist]

No.
TPBM has seen the planes climb over the walls of the u-shaped valley in Innsbruck.

[maryanimal]

Nope.

tpbm is thinking of moving to a different climate.

[lucky420]

No I've moved back to my hometown and am as happy as a clam

TPBM has eaten oysters on the half shell

[Roark]

Eaten 'em by the dozen in Seattle with a chaser of local beer!

The person below me secretly wants to run around Burning Man butt nekkie.

[Sunbeam56]

Ummm, yeah.. but I am unsure about the photo rules.

TPBM may have some information on this.

[Savannah]

I do. Folks aren't supposed to photograph you, without asking, at a recognizable distance.
http://www.burningman.com/press/photo_guide.html

Do some folks flout this rule? Sometimes. So either know the moderate risk and accept it, don't accept the risk and wear a little bit of something, or wear something on your face or head that makes you feel less recognizable (sunglasses, a fun wig, a mask, a big hat, an animal nose--whatever you like. This is a common strategy). Or wear a merkin and pasties.


The person below me has never gone naked at the Burn.

[C187]

That is a factual statement. As long as you mean out in the public view. I however have been naked while doing other things, like sleeping.

TPBM has also never been naked on the playa.
