"Would You Rather" Wednesday

We have decided to add this weekly installment for your enjoyment.


Here's how it works: we'll pose a "would you rather" question every wednesday and we want to hear your responses!


This week's question is...


Would you rather have cheeto fingers or oreo teeth for the rest of your life?


Merrit's Answer: There's definitely a downside to both. With cheeto fingers, you'd constantly get sick nasty orange goo all over it. People would also probably avoid shaking hands with you at all costs, so making business deals might be kinda tricky--not to mention the fact that you'd be a major outcast in all church settings.

On the other hand, oreo teeth are pretty nasty. Picture the most attractive person you've ever seen. Now picture them grinning at you with a nice set of rotting teeth. There's no way to hide your teeth (Unless you knock them all out and leave them under your pillow for the toothfairy. Just don't be too surprised if she doesn't leave you any money for those nasty things.). While beauty isn't just skin deep, looks are what give first impressions and bad teeth tend to ruin someone's impression of you.

After that lengthy analysis...my choice would definitely be cheeto fingers. I'd rather lose my left arm than have gross teeth. Sick.

Brooke's Answer: Both of these would be pretty rough. While Oreo teeth would pretty much guarantee you delicious food storage for the rest of your life, I think I'll have to go with Cheeto fingers. I figure that it's not too hard to become ambidextrous with your feet and bypass using your hands at all. It's much more difficult and impairing to talk without showing your teeth.

What would you rather have? Comment Away!

Nostalgia

The dynamic duo was reunited this weekend after many weeks apart. Dang college. Needless to say, we spent most of Friday night wreaking havoc on the unsuspecting suburb of South Jordan. Here's a little taste of what you missed out on. Don't be too jealous.

We started things off by a big ol' stack of napkins at Arctic Circle (continue reading to find out our purpose for these delightful paper products). The free kiddie cones didn't hurt either. Please note that Merrit's (left) is practically 100% gone. We made our way across the street to our friend's house to reenact one of our favorite past times: napkining! For those of you who aren't in the know, napkining is similar to toilet papering except you use napkins. And occassionally yarn and spoons and condiment cups. We may or may not have made a habit of doing this to this particular friend on a regular basis.

Suddenly we realized that it was Homecoming at our old high school. Crashing it was definitely in order. Brooke got a little sidetracked jumping over a large cone.


There's a secret population of celebrities who live in South Jordan. Here, a young man poses with two of SoJo's finest.


By this time we were craving gouda (naturally) so we cruised on over to Harmons.


When we got back to the car we discovered the world's most hilarious Halloween decoration: Saphira the witch. We took her to YWorry Lane. The street just happens to be a dead end. Oh, the irony.
We also went and visited the local reindeer...just to get Saphira excited for Christmas this year.
Doing the "full body dry heave" in front of Abe Lincoln's home, which happens to be located at the Gale Center Museum.

Merrit decided to direct traffic at the Homecoming dance (mentioned above). "Only one beverage allowed from the refreshment table!"

These little girls were "collecting money" (aka taking coins from the fountain). Criminals.
Bingham misses Brooke so much that they built this structure in her honor.

Blog-a-licious

Reasons why this blog is totally wicked:

  1. Great minds think alike
  2. We're too cool for school
  3. We are rollerblading champs
  4. The 2008 Reflections Honorable Mention winners (us) are bound to have some more creativity up their sleeves
  5. Admit it... you've laughed at one of our blogs at least once (we sure have)
  6. World's best list makers
  7. We make a mean dish of homemade mac 'n' cheese + rice krispies
  8. We're secure enough to end a list at 8 instead of 10

Collision

I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome everyone to the most intense and inspiring blog on the web. Brooke and I have decided to combine our wit and wisdom to create this brilliant blog for your reading pleasure. Enjoy!
