We played this in college to get to know people, now i am bringing it to RE to have some fun.

 

Right people, you are all going to be dropped on a desert island for a year. But no fear, you can take one album, one foodstuff, one person, and one book (Note: The foodstuff is something you will be eating morning, noon and night - so pick wisely)

 

So, just post what you would take and why. Here's mine:

 

Explosions in the Sky - Friday Night Lights

Great album, relaxes me lotsa.

 

A Pizza Express Sloppy Guiseppe - awesomely nice pizza.

 

Papillion - Henry Charieré

Great book, full of inspiration and a great read.

 

And a person...well - Ray Mears. 'Nuff said.

wtf Jordan.. EMOFACE!

 

..anyway..

 

Album:If i can't make a compilation it would either be The Used - The Used, Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American, or (most likely considering the person I'm choosing) Brand New - Deja Entendu, or maybe as a rank outsider Kings of Leon - Aha Shake Heartreak, if indeed I've gotten the name right.

Food: An unlimited supply of chicken fajitas sounds appealing.. But i think it's safe to say I'd rather have an unlimited supply of Subway Melts with chilis and salad and honey-mustard, footlong of course. MMmmm!

Book:Maybe Martin Amis - Money just due to the sheer amount of stuff to work with if i wanted to study it, or probably My Psychology text book because I really should get around to reading it.

Person: will be my beautiful girlfriend.. :D She loves geology and geography and would totally love the island. And she likes scrabble.

 

And maybe for the sake of it?

 

Game: Blast Corps on the N64

Board Game: Scrabble?

Film: If there was copious amounts of ganja on my island, probably the new Final Fantasy: Advent Children movie... It's totally DEEP. The colours.. the.. the bloodlines, the light/dark thing, the whole eastern fable thing and aaaah!

 

Forumer: Shorty wooooo! Might need to change the n64 game to perfect Dark... but he'd probably have that on his list of thigns to take so it's ok.

Meh, the latest album isn't all that emo and theres quite a few good songs on it that i like.

 

I don't mind emo music, bar the shitty stuff like "my chemical romance's I'M NOT OKAAAAAAAAAY!!!" it's the mentality of emo's that really annoys me.
