What would you pick?

[MarkusTay]

I\'m bored, so how about another stupid topic thread?

If you were stranded on a deserted island and could only take three things, one of each of the following, what would they be?

1. One \"Thing\" (toy, game, book, telescope, etc...)
2. One type of food (You\'d have an unlimited supply)
3. One person (You could go with the usual sex symbol types, but remember, your gonna be there a looooong time).

You could pick an electronic device for a thing, but since there\'s no electricity and I\'m not giving you any batteries it wouldn\'t do you any good.

1. One \"Thing\" (toy, game, book, telescope, etc...)
That would have to be duct tape .
2. One type of food (You\'d have an unlimited supply) Steak!
3. One person (You could go with the usual sex symbol types, but remember, your gonna be there a looooong time) If I wasnt married... lol
I think Johnny Depp would be really interesting to hang out with.

Thing: A knife
Food: It stands between olive oil and coffee...
Person: Boyfriend (and if he wouldn\'t want to go I\'d be happy with Viggo Mortensen as well...oh yeah!)

 

[Duende]

1. My entire painting table! Being stuck on a desert isaland would sure give me the oppurtunity to get caught up on all those unpainted minis. Without the distraction of the CMON forums!

2. Pizza with all the toppings, so I can pick it apart to make new dishes.

3. EricJ, since I\'m gonna be painting my minis without CMON access, I\'ll need a good tutor! (even if I gotta tie him to the coconut tree!)

Hey, Markus, you didn\'t tell us your own answers!

[Godlikebuthumble]

1. A big friggin\' knife (or my painting stuff)
2. Steaks. Nothin\' better than dead cow...
3. My SO. Or my best buddy. Depends on who would come along without putting up a fight

 

[Modderrhu]

1. Duct tape (thanks, solaria, you solved a little problem)
2. Tiramisu and Glenkinchie (or do we get just water to drink?)
3. Sandra Bullock (I\'m taking my chances, \'cos I\'ve got duct tape and I know how to use it )

@Astonia, do you actually DRINK olive oil? :|~

 

[ipaintminis]

1) Thing- I had to think alot on this one... i would say my paint station, but then one dosent know the water supply, what if you could never rinse your brush out...Id say a knife, but that has already been said and id look silly...here we go...A lighter, for the necessary fire.

2)Food- ground beef, cause you can make so much with it. and seasonings, cause thats so part of it.

3) well since eric has already been said (that and we are going to the same island right? so its like a combined effort right?) I think id take my mama, shes strong, to help move stuff, brave, to whether the enviroment, and she likes outside fiji style. that and then id have someone to talk to cause duende would be having her way with eric...her painting way:]...

that was fun, so what do we call the island, coolislandornot? CION?

 

[Astorderire]

- a condom ( one is never too cautious).
- I don\'t know the actual name of this stuff in english but it must sound like that : a chocolate paste for recreational sex.
- No one! I do belive that \"l\'Enfer, c\'est les autres\". The 2 items above are only to keep the hope alive

@ Astorderire- what\'s that saying mean in English? I tried using Babelfish, but it only gave me this, \"the Hell, they is the different ones\", which really doesn\'t clarify (and not even grammatically correct). And if you\'re not having anyone there with you, I don\'t think you\'ll need that condom (a tissue box maybe ) lol

@ ipaintminis- Hey, I chose Eric because of his painting skill. Not because he\'s a man and I\'m a woman and we\'ll be all alone on a big empty island, ... with no one else around.... ummm,....
That has NOTHING to do with it! :innocent:

 

[Sturmhalo]

Thing: A bed

Food: Chinese takeaway

Person: I\'m keeping quiet on that one!!!

Go on! It\'s the corset, isn\'t it? You want it for yourself, you do. Just send poor Eric to ipm after you\'ve got your corset thingy, Duende.

 

[marineboy]

Okay, I\'ll bite.lol

1. A long 3\"X1/4\" piece of carbon steel to fashion tools from.

2. 80\'s vintage US Army issue C-rations (I\'m particularly fond onf the bacon and eggs meal)

2. Jamie Lee Curtis -- intelligent and attractive, witty and wise (please don\'t mention this choice to anyone who might get pissed off at me here at home, thank you in advance.)

BTW, is this a tropical island, temperate, sub arctic or arctic? I\'d have to modify some choices the....

If this is arctic, then nr. 3 would be Julia Ormond, the lead of Smilla\'s Sense of Snow, she\'s great on the ice! (take that any way you want...)

lollol

 

[No Such Agency]

l\'Enfer, c\'est les autres

\"Hell is other people\".

1. Satellite telephone (let\'s be honest, who REALLY wants to stranded on a desert island?)
2. pizza, because you can never eat too much pizza (and there\'s always fish and coconuts if you get bored)
3. Janeane Garofalo (in case the coast guard take a while responding to my phone call)

 

[Klute]

Thing.........picture of my kids,seems to be the only thing at the moment that makes me smile.

Food...........rice.....to go with the fish cuaght by

Person......Ray Mears...to catch the fish and make meals out of mud and moss and tree bark and to light fires with his bare hands and to build a shelter from nothing and then of course to build a raft and get the feck out of there.Of course he could use the stars and sun to navigate.
He\'s that kinda guy.

Ah... go for the lady boys do we sir?! lol

 

[Astorderire]

@ Duende- As I wrote the condom is to keep the Hope alive ...
And in fact I read a strange version of the Robinson Crusoe story a long time ago (maybe \"Vendredi\" is the title) where the poor guy was bitten where it hurts by a pervert spider hidden in the tree he was, er, having, well, sex with. There was a vivid description of the consequences of that injury ( \" And it burns, burns, burns! The ring of fire! The ring of FIIIRE! \" ). So even in unexpected situation, a condom may be handy

@ NSA- Many thanks for the translation.

 

[Drake Farstrider]

Thing: An Axe, may need to cut down stuff and it can double as a weapon.

Food: Thai Food.

Person: My fiance, but if she was not wanting to go then I would have to say Natalie Portman. But 1st my Fiance

 

[freakinacage]

ah, ray mears, the daddy of survival. oh and \'lofty\' wiseman.

1 - massive swiss army knife with pull out bed and self cooling fridge.
2 - cow, all of it. can be used for all sorts
3 - my friend lucy because she\'s a good friend. i\'ve lived with her before so there would be no shocks there. and she\'s hot so maybe she could always...you know....tell me to bugger off!

 

[Frustrated Father]

(laughing at this thread in general)

1. Hrmmm ... inflatable raft. Get the hell out when I want, go fishing if I have to, and doubles as a comfy bed.

2. Spaghetti ... lots of meat sauce, touch of olive oil and garlic ... mmmmmmm ...

3. Gwen Steffani. Hey, I can dream.
