Strange...I was gonna say that I would be you, because *you* truly live differently. I'm just behaving like a man whore and blaming it on my spirituality. :D That said (mostly in jest), your home and lifestyle are amazing, and you should seriously consider adopting a Pagan spiritual path, because you've got all the other stuff down pat. Well, okay...you're gonna want a couple of girlfriends. The goats aren't going to have the same effect, I fear.

My second choice is to be LJ. I don't really think I have to tell anyone *why* I might make that choice, do I?

Ah no, here and in Europe (we're not really Europe you know) the beers aren't just flavoured. You can get really good tasting fruit beers and ales. I love them, and I don't really have a sweet tooth. Fruli is a gorgeous Belgian drink - 70% wheat beer, 30% strawberries. I can down the first pint (19.3 US ounces) in 10 minutes because it's such a thirst quencher. Six gulped pints later I remember it's 4.1%. Oops.

I don't think it's nice of you to call DanaC a tart. Hmmph.

Just kiddin' guys!

Actually, I was thinking it would be cool to be Dana as a "who would you be" option. And I like Cic, too...she's fun.

Oh hell, I want to be pieces of all of you.

I found a pizza place here that serves good German beers.
I may not even pronounce what I drink, but I like German beer better than American beer anyway.

HungLikeJesus 08-20-2008 10:39 AM

I'm still wondering why it's "If you had to be another dwellar" instead of "If you could be..." Are you running from something, footfootfoot?

Sundae 08-20-2008 11:45 AM

Perhaps because if it was, "If you could be..." people would feel the need to justify the change. This way, you skip that part and get straight to the reason for the preference.

skysidhe 08-20-2008 11:53 AM

oh yeah, girly girl beers rock!

squirell nutkin 08-20-2008 11:58 AM

Or it's so people won't try to pull crap like "I don't want to be anyone else, I like me just fine."

But then this is the cellar, home of self loathing...

DanaC 08-20-2008 02:09 PM

Cic, Pilau would return the compliment, but he's kind of attracted to being Pie....because he likes pies.

Beers. Oh I do like my beerlies. My favourites are ales. I may have already mentioned this half a dozen times ....stuff like Bishop's Finger, Fox's Nobb, or Old Speckled Hen. As a teen I rather liked Old Peculiar.....can't touch the stuff now, or Owd Roger.

Okay, okay .. you two guys bring the beers, I'll provide the accommodation. Scotland is not great for beer.

After three or four beers you sound like a German native speaker.

I wonder if there is a causal connection here...

I usta could speak German fairly well.

There is a good-sized German population here in the arsehole of Texas. A few good German restaurants too.

I can get by in either English or German at the eateries and even the bakery. But I've forgotten too much to converse well.

A microbrewery about 10 miles from me makes something called Lobotomy Bock that is 10.8%

TheMercenary 08-24-2008 07:39 PM

I think you were hot before you were prego... Hey but that was just me...

and of course your hubby... :D

Aliantha 08-24-2008 07:41 PM

Well I guess anyone who's into boobs would like pregnant chicks considering the epic proportions they grow to. lol

Clodfobble 08-24-2008 08:03 PM

And it's so sad when they eventually go back to normal... :(

xoxoxoBruce 08-24-2008 08:12 PM

No no, it adds variety.:yum:

Aliantha 08-24-2008 08:37 PM

I don't know about that Clod. Mine never shrunk after my first couple of kids. That could have something to do with me getting preggers with my second one only 6 weeks after giving birth to the first and then just carrying a bit of extra weight ever since then. Before i had the kids I was a nice manageable C cup, but ever since I've been at least a D, sometimes double. I hate to think what I am now, so I'm just poking myself into my old bras for the time being.

I think also because I had no luck with breast feeding, I didn't get so much of that saggy look after the kids. I've decided to avoid the disappointment this time round and just go straight to formula, so with any luck, I'll still have nice boobs after I guess.

Juniper 08-24-2008 10:11 PM

Ali -- I breastfed and I don't think it affected mine in a negative way. I think it has more to do with gaining/losing weight, not nursing. I'm such an oddball, I didn't gain any weight with either of my babies. Nada. 'Course, I was on a diabetic diet, and that helped.

I have gained quite a bit since, though... (sigh)

I gotta say, I'm a BF advocate...give it a shot, it is SO much easier. And just because you had no luck last time, doesn't mean you won't now. My first didn't want anything to do with it, but my second was a champ.

And since I haven't said it yet, Congratulations!

Um, maybe I won't be you just now, after all. :)

wolf 08-25-2008 11:41 AM

I would be ... Griff.

Grifftopia is very close to my Utopia, although too much of the house is above ground (at least as far as he's let on).

skysidhe 09-01-2008 06:28 PM

The two other people I would also like to be are:

zippyt http://cellar.org/showpost.php?p=480019&postcount=2034


and Crimson Ghost because ...well I don't really know. I guess because he is a ghost. No one thinks badly of ghosts.

Thanks for the advice Juniper, but I've made my decision already. Besides, formula feeding makes it very much easier to allow someone to babysit when necessary, specially if you're a woman who doesn't make enough milk to express. My two older boys seem to be doing very well even though they were never breast fed, so I don't really believe all the hype about it anyway even though there are plenty of advocates who will quote a million studies as to the benefits.

Each to their own. ;)

footfootfoot 09-02-2008 05:50 PM

There is a bit of backlash from the pro breast feeding groups which some mothers who can't, or for their own reasons choose not to breastfeed, say makes them feel badly about their choice.

If it works for you then great, if it doesn't don't feel guilty or paranoid about it even though the la leche types are talking about yu behind your back and suddenly grow silent when you walk into the room. Act as though it were a normal lull in the conversation and had nothing to do with you.

Then hit them with, in as loud a voice as you can muster without shouting,
"How dare you axe me with your moral judgements you cow?"

That'll fix 'em.

Mrs. Foot "took one for the team" as they say, she breast fed and she feels her dowas are the worse for the wear and she would sooner vote for McCain than have a boob job (I recuse myself) but that's her chioce.

Her best friend had one boob which didn't work at all and the other one didn't produce enough milk to feed hibernating chipmunk so she fed formula. It's all good, the baby is fine and alert and healthy, so as they say in my neighborhood "Don't believe the hype" http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ASjH7X-jAY4

Rock on! Dowas rewl! [/nutkin]

footfootfoot 09-02-2008 05:54 PM

Oh and for the record I'd, if I had to be another dwellar, I'd be all of you. There's a lot of love in the room tonight and I feel it too.
I'd be the cellar. But I'd have a little corner that was always damp, especially when it rained and I'd put a sump pump there and that's where I'd keep Marichiko, rkzenrage, and other dwellars who've been banned for general nutkinness to the nth degree. spammers and others like that would still go into the burn pile and not the compost.

lookout123 09-02-2008 05:57 PM

with Lil Lookout Mrs L breastfed but had a hard go of it. We think now he just ate too inconsistently for things to work properly. She had the boobs done three years later. 2.0 breastfed like an absolute champ. we were kind of worried because we'd heard the hooter expansion packs could make it harder... but they worked like a charm.

that's my breastfeeding story. next?

Aliantha 09-02-2008 05:59 PM

That's nice of you to say foot3, and my condolances to your wife after the distressing loss.

I'm pretty comfortable with my choice to be honest. I put up with all the cracks the last couple of times around, and I was far less prepared for it then than I am now. I just hope the baby is healthy and happy. Everything else is secondary at this point. :)

classicman 09-02-2008 09:44 PM

God attitude Ali. I think today with all the technology we have and as advanced as we are.... everything will be just fine.

Wait, she breastfed after implants? I had always heard that wasn't possible. Interesting...

A friend of mine did a mix of both formula and breastfeeding, whichever was more convenient at the given time, but the few times some busybody questioned her use of formula she would ask them, "Haven't you ever heard of a breast pump?" and give them a look like they were completely retarded--even if it was actually formula in the bottle.

lookout123 09-03-2008 10:12 AM

not only is it possible, she actually had a much easier time of it. the milk actually flowed better this time.

Completely possible. There is no contraindication to it.

Or a bottle of Corona with out the lime or the beer...

lookout123 09-04-2008 11:17 AM

very true these days. strangely enough before Lil Lookout (oops baby, if there ever was one) I was strongly opposed to the existence of children and I refused to believe soccer was worth putting my beer down for.

I worked all day, drank all night, ran around with strippers, knew a dozen drug dealers private numbers, and mothers held their children tighter when they walked past me at the mall.

Now I'm the guy mom's ask to drive their kids home after soccer practice and after I went out for a birthday party this weekend I was hungover from my 4 beers.

Times change.

xoxoxoBruce 09-05-2008 10:50 AM

Urbane Guerrilla 09-06-2008 06:04 AM

Pour enough beer in me and I just get more like myself.

Enough coffee does the same thing by a different road.

Waitwaitwait -- rkzen was banned? For cause? :eek: I thought he was just sick!

richlevy 09-07-2008 12:06 AM

Well I couldn't be Sundae Girl or Jinx because if I was, I'd just stay at home and play with my tits all day. Honestly, I don't know how those women ever leave the house.:p
