how well do you know your ham & cheese on wry? -- the answers revealed!
So this post is geared to all three or four of you who actually took the quiz. Oh how the rest of you disappoint me! Those of you who did take the quiz legitimately (and no, Grace, you don't qualify), I'll be contacting you about the wee gift you'll be receiving. The rest of y'all can suck it. And I mean that in the nicest way possible, of course.
1. Which condiment do I loathe?Thanks for playing!
(a) Mustard
(b) Ketchup
(c) Mayonnaise
(d) All of the above
I have an irrational fear of mayonnaise. I cannot be persuaded to like it. So don't try. End of discussion.

2. True or False: I like stucco.
False-a-rooni! If I may quote myself, "Texture freaks me the fuck out." So cement bumps? Ewww!

3. Where did I buy my bike?
(a) REI
(b) Modell's
(c) K-Mart
(d) Nowhere. I totally stole it from Lance Armstrong.
Lance's titanium lock foiled my attempt at theft so I got over my shame and made a purchase at K-Mart. J'adore my Kick-Ass K-Mart Bike.

4. Which term did The Lovely Jess and I coin to describe a straight woman who is the platonic friend of a lesbian?
(a) Less-bian
(b) Rug rat
(c) Sapphony
(d) In denial
The Lovely Jess solicited suggestions from her readership and then I wrote up a wee press release announcing our tacky term. Even if no one else cares, I for one am proud of our joint effort to represent this minority. If we don't speak out for the rug rats, who will?

5. Which NY-1 personality do I think needs to be beaten?
(a) Pat Kiernan
(b) George Whipple
(c) Shelley Goldberg
(d) Gary Anthony Ramsay
George Whipple would seem like the obvious answer but that man needs to be tweezed more than beaten. I don't like him very much but Shelley Goldberg, the parenting expert, makes me positively irate. If I were to encounter her in the street, I can't guarantee that I wouldn't inflict severe bodily harm. I suppose I just ruined whatever chances I had of making the NYer of the Week...

Hate them with a passion. But I love the fact that Scott Stapp is having a really bad week.

8. Where was I when a stranger sucked my toes?
(a) Nine West

9. Which singer did I compare myself to (looks-wise) after perusing high-school era photos of myself in a family album?
(a) Corey Hart
(b) John Oates
(c) Englebert Humperdink
(d) Kenny Loggins
My dark, curly mullet and hint of a 'stache made me look very similar to the shorter half of Hall & Oates (unfortunately). Although, I have to say that John's aged better than Hall who now looks eerily similar to Vincent from Beauty & The Beast.

10. What television show inspired a precocious 8-year-old me to ask my flustered parents, "What's a virgin?"?
(a) The Facts of Life
(b) Family Ties
(c) Romper Room
(d) The Love Boat
I learned that word during a vignette starring Erin from The Waltons and the curly-haired brunette dude from CHiPs. He was the cop who drove a patrol car, not a motorcycle. He wanted to get into Erin's pants but was stonewalled by her decision to not give up The Big V. Needless to say, my parents did not appreciate my recap and follow-up questions.

(a) "I Am Woman" by Helen Reddy
(b) "Thousand Miles" by Vanessa Carlton
(c) "Ten Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed" by Unknown
(d) "You Can Do It (Put Your Ass Into It)" by Ice Cube
I was serenaded by a little boy to point out my obvious whiteness. That kid totally housed me. I had no good reply. Well played, fucker.

12. True or False: Someone found this site by Googling "comebacks for if someone calls you a freckle fart"
That term and "diapered by younger sister" still make me giggle.

17. Which of the following celebrities does NOT have bad breath according to me?
(a) Bill O'Reilly
(b) Frances Sternhagen
(c) Christopher Guest

Christopher Guest can do no wrong in my eyes. I don't have it on good authority that the rest of them have stanky breath but they just look like they do. Work with me.

18. Which cereal did I magically produce from my pajamas one morning?
(a) Total
(b) Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch
(c) Grape Nuts
(d) Cream of Wheat
I've pitched this trick to David Blaine but so far, he hasn't returned any of my calls. If I feel like slumming, I guess I'll give David Copperfield a ring.

19. Which brand of beer did I throw at a roach in my apartment?
(a) Rolling Rock
(b) Pete's Wicked Ale
(c) Leffe
(d) Brooklyn Lager
I wouldn't waste good Leffe or Brooklyn on a pest. No, I lie. My fear of vermin exceeds my beer snobbery by a mile. Or snobbery of any beverage, really. Hell, I would douse a bug with Cristal if I had to.

20. True or False: I had a childhood crush on Bobby Vinton.
Shut up. His mastery of polka tunes was hot and you know it. For those of you who have NO idea who I'm even talking about, click here.
