So as Avent said last week, we're picking topics for the blogger after us. Mine is:
You are sitting at a table that exists outside of time and space; it only contains three seats (not including yours). an evil army is coming to kill you . You must pick three people that are dead or living (one of which can be fictional) to advise you on what to do. Who would those three people be? BONUS POINTS: If you tell us what they would advise.
Oh boy.
Andrew "Ender" Wiggin
Orson Scott Card may be a bigoted, racist, homophobic douchebag, but Christ he created one hell of a character with Ender.
To sum him up, by the age of 11 Ender had unwittingly committed Xenocide. Because that's what child prodigies do. He's also intelligent enough to readily absorb knowledge, greatest tactician in fictional history IMO, and is malleable for your own gain.
Can you see why he was immediately my number one choice?
What would he advise: Remember, the enemies gate is down.
Bruce Lee
Ok, so any army needs a coach, philosopher, and all round bad ass. So why not Bruce Lee?
Also, I'm a little out of shape. I could do with him as a personal trainer.
What would he advise:Do not be tense, just be ready, not thinking but not dreaming, not being set but being flexible. It is being "wholly" and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.
Will Smith
This took some thought. Was it his high IQ? His incredible physique? Rapping skills?
No.
It's because in epically bad situation, he'll say 'Aww Hell No!' and if I'm going down, I want to be going down with a smile on my face.
What would he advise:Wear black hi-top Converse. At all times.
So that's my answer. I can has cookie now?
Also, Discussion point-has anyone else noticed the parallel between the sign of the Deathly Hallows in Harry Potter and the Nazi's use of the Swatika?
Ok, so Erin:
You have the choice between donating $1 trillion directly to the prevention and cure of AIDs and Cancer each, or sacrificing yourself to rid a tenth of all people with either AIDs or cancer completely. Which do you choose?
Have fun :D
