Friday Five: Potato, Po-tah-to Edition

I am out all day Friday, so I beg your indulgence once again as I post an early Friday Five. Don't miss the absolutely marvelous Ask the Matriarch below--color coded, no less!


There are two types of people in the world, morning people and night owls. Or Red Sox fans and Yankees fans. Or boxers and briefs. Or people who divide the world into two types of people and those who don't. Let your preferences be known here. And if you're feeling verbose, defend your choices!

1. Mac? (woo-hoo!) or PC? (boo!)
Why yes, the Friday Five author reserves the right to editorialize!

2. Pizza: Chicago style luscious hearty goodness, or New York floppy and flaccid?

3. Brownies/fudge containing nuts:
a) Good. I like the variation in texture.
b) An abomination unto the Lord. The nuts take up valuable chocolate space.
[or a response of your choosing]

4. Do you hang your toilet paper so that the "tail" hangs flush with the wall, or over the top of the roll like normal people do?

5. Toothpaste: Do you squeeze the tube wantonly in the middle, or squeeze from the bottom and flatten as you go just like the tube instructs?

Bonus: Share your favorite either/or.

Let us know in comments if you play; post a direct link to your blog entry in your comment using the following formulation:
<a href="the url of your blog post goes here">what you want the link to say goes here</a>

My weekends are always better when I play the Friday Five.

Rev Scott said...

Hasn't the Wittenburg Door already discovered that Steinbrenner is AntiChrist? :-)

After a lovely short vacation, I played here!

Teri said...

ooh, I am so going to play, but not until I get back from the gym. I must go work off the ice cream I ate yesterday. :-)

I think a crucial dichotomy is dog-people-vs-cat-people. Not only does it reveal pet preferences but sometimes personality, style, and even intelligence. (kidding!) (a little)

:-)

Kate said...

It has been a very long time since I posted a Friday Five.

Jonah said...

I played. Many of my answers assume a typically Anglican "middle" path.

I'm in this week! I had no idea I felt so strongly about these things until I started to write about them! Geesh!

Stop on by Blanket in the Grove. (Plus a bonus YouTube video to boot.)

Sue said...

Presbyterian Gal definitely has the best defense of the "tail to the wall" T-P method.

May it be so.

Cathy said...

You know when you are comment #59, your chances of being visited greatly diminishes, so you have to have a special lure of some sort, and since this is a RGBP meaning GALs sort of place, I thought I would post the question of panty choices as the bonus question!

Diane said...

I'm sorry! I can't play today! busy trying to finish a sermon! (just not coming together like I want. I'll try to play later, but by then I bet everyone will be done.
