fed up with stupid questions?

Posted on Jul 10th, 2008 by boogie : anarchist boogie
well, i am.  i refuse to give the obvious pat-self-on-the-back response to the daily questions.  all that fakey feel-good BS pisses me off.  if i answer all pissed off, then i end up with hundreds of people reading my shit and often leaving comments that piss me off even more, which leads to more rantings, and more views, and blech...  don't want to go there right now.  i'm in a really good place and i don't need that kind of drama.  sometimes it's fun.  sometimes it's A LOT of fun!

so, here is my attempt, rather than bitch and moan (oops, too late) about the questions being offered, maybe i'll offer up some questions of my own.  if y'all play, i'll do it again.  if not, i reckon i won't.  ...maybe  heh

(y'all can't tell, reading this, the long long pause as i'm figuring out what to ask first...  funny, i had quite a few in mind before i started typing these words.)

Supposing that some supreme being [sic] told you, after you died, that you had to come back to Earth as a rock, a stone, a pebble, some kind of mineral, any kind of rock, what would you choose to be?

my knee-jerk immediate response was that i would like to be a tiny sliver of rock, one that always ends up stuck inside someone's shoe….  heheheee

a nice flat one suitable for skipping, so I could both be cradled in warm hands and fly across the water.

Cautiously  treading into this room of discussion,  telling you that I would like to end up like the crystal KUNZIT,  if it is the meaning that I shall return as a crystal.  Most likely I will end up like an ordinary  grey -stone!  But anyhow,  the Kunzit crystal is a strong heart-chakra crystal and has the healing energy to open up for the feeling of love for everything ,  as well as to yourself as to others and the life in general.  So it is said !  And then I´m treading silently out again….. Bye - bye :0))

I would start out as a hunk of sandstone, then slowly be worn down into smaller and smaller stones until I was a grain of sand, then I would wash into the ocean, where I would settle to the bottom and become yet another rock….

Well, not granite.  I'm sick and tired of being taken for granite.

I think that I would come back as Peridot. 

It is only found 5 places on the face of the earth (two of them in New Mexico, so chances are I'd hang out somewhere nice and scenic), and folks would have to go out of their way to collect me up and use me as their pet.

An added bonus is that it comes in nice shades of green.  So, I'd abondon the Capitalist Pig Dog ways of this current life and come back as Green.  Nice balance, there.

Super question.  Thanks!

Maybe I'd like to come back as Rose quartz, come to think of it. I love its color and healing properties, and it is so cool to the touch too.

LOL. Well Stacy, as a typical indigo child who questions authority, who's dripping with sarcasm, my first thoughts would be, “Well, who died and made you supreme being? What is this, a dictatorship? I thought I could go back as whatever I wanted to be? Huh? Okay, okay FINE.”

I'd be a Geode. Someone will come along and say, “Hey, that's a weird freakin rock.” And then I'd probably piss them off just for being a rock minding my own business and they'll decide to crack me open…and see there are millions of little gems and crystals within me.
:-D

yeah, the whole supreme being thing was a little controlling….

but hey, a Geode? Then, you'd end up on someone's bookcase collecting all kinds of icky critters and dust mites. Some human would try to clean you up, and cut their hand in the process, and throw you out. What a bummer. Amethyst?  8>]

LOL.

Kalyse,
I want to be a Cathedral Geode of Amethyst. Way too big to be on a bookshelf. And way too difficult to get rid of me. Who told them to crack me open? Now deal with me :-D

And if someone should happen to cut their hand, oh well, shouldn't have touched me, LOL

I would come back as a river rock, with cool, clear water tumbling over me.  Sometimes I might get picked up and skipped across the face of the water for good measure…other times Id end up in a little childs pocket to take home to his/her treasure box.
