20 Questions

a newer, better, even BIGGER version of twenty questions with Ericka Ekstrom (and this time there are actually 20 of them)

*Note to reader: Ericka references herself pretty often as "me" in the questions - those questions I have answered as if I were talking both directly to her and so as to be amusing to the home audience

1.) What brand of lipstick do you think sarah palin prefers?
and i quote:
“From: C______@gmail.com>

Date: Wed, Sep 10, 2008 at 2:59 PM
Subject: tip on Sarah Pallin
Notes: Sarah’s sister in-law owns a beauty parlor in Wasilla…apparently Sarah’s lip liner is tattooed on…not sure what to do with that one.
leak to wonkette”
in conclusion although originally speculated that she wore Wet N’ Wild as to match her fiery personality, it is now categorically been proven that this bulldog has it tattooed on by this foolproof email I found in someone’s blog when i Googled the words lipstick and Sarah Palin together.
sidenote: this misspelling of her last name was obviously intentional by our concerned leaker.
2.) Describe your perfect high end sandwich.
This question almost isn’t fair because I really feel like different things different days. Like particularly right now I could go for a rueben. But I’m generally not a rueben kind of gal. Im usually a swiss and turkey girl. Ok I know what I’ll say. Sauces. It has to have sauces. Mustards especially. Lately I’ve been really into Zatarans Cajun Mustard. It has a really nice underlying heat, that lays low on the tongue and peppers the end of every bite with its distinct Bayou spices. That and anything I can put Sriracha on I’m pretty gay for. Oh and of course, Artisan breads, as well any meats should cost somewhere in the range of 20 USD a pound I’d say. Golden tomatoes are pretty raging right now. Red onion. Anything with fish I’d like to have a remoulade.
3.) Jello pudding cups: trashy or classy?
With the vanilla strip classy, without trashy
4.) Detail Amy Winehouse’s impact on international relations.
Hundreds of thousands of European women have been stolen and sold into sex trafficking since Amy Winehouse hit the scene and criminals everywhere realized how easy it is to get a white girl addicted to drugs.
5.) Favorite work by Gustave Flaubert?
Madeline the beloved childrens book
6.) Facebook or Myspace?
Friendster
7.) If/when i become a successful musician, I will hire you to be my merch girl and tell people my shirts are handcrafted by third world workers who are paid a very competitive wage and live prosperous lives because of my generosity and enlightenment. Which third world country are they from?
Myanmar, because that makes you sound even BETTER
8.) What is your Princess Jasmine^ named?
Bethany
9.) Do you prefere America’s Next Top Model pre-PG county tranny or post-PG county tranny?
pre, it’s not that I have anything against trannies as much as it is that Elyse was the only worthwhile cast member of any of the 13 cycles.
10.) Favorite brunch foods?
HOLLANDAISE. Anything with it. Although if I had to choose, blackened salmon with creamed spinach or greens, topped with a poached egg and drowned in hollandaise. With a side of cheese grits, some andouille sausage and perhaps a big fluffy biscuit with fresh jam and apple butter accompaniments.
11.) Favorite hair styling products?
spray shine
12.) Who would make a better boyfriend for me? Robert Downey Jr. or John Mayer?
definitely John Mayer, he’s way cooler and he dumped Jennifer Aniston, something I think we all wish we could do.
13.) Should I wear my red patent leather ballet flats to work tomorrow, or my yellow chucks?
I would wear your chucks, but they would be monochrome black. Take that for what it’s worth...which blatantly isn’t much, nor is it a real response.
14.) How many of these questions are actually about me?
pretty much all of them, but I was expecting it so I’m not let down. It’s like a visit to Waffle House you know, not exactly what you wanted, but still kind of fun and troublingly delicious.
15.) When Shervin and I get a puppy together, which vicious dictator from history should we name it after (Chairman Mao is taken by my fish)
Musharraf
16.) The new Jenny Lewis record leaked. Do you want me to send it to you? absolutely
17.) In what year was the battle of Louvain fought?
Of course you’re speaking of the time that Gene Hackman and Danny Glover got into in the kitchen in the Royal Tenenbaums, which I am pretty sure was released in 2001.
18.) Favorite abstract expressionist?
Ericka Ekstrom
19.) What’s your favorite thing to order at Jaleo?
shark nuggets
20.) Thoughts and feelings on the feds taking over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac?
I mean since the government has its spending under control I think it’s a great idea. We value our freedom and sovereignty over all else here in America, that's why we allow the government to do absolutely anything they want! (With that being said, the hard truth is that our economy literally could not function if these two institutions were allowed to go bankrupt)
