E.M.’s Sunday Ramble Prompt #13

Welcome back to the next Sunday Ramble. For those that are just joining us, the Sunday Ramble Prompt will be based upon a certain topic. I will ask five questions about that topic, and you can ramble on however you wish. This post will be scheduled for 5 a.m. PST (California Time) every Sunday.

I had a great time rambling with you guys on Technology and the Future. I think we all kind of felt like the world is crazy right now. You guys had some great ideas about your time capsules πŸ™‚ It was very enjoyable to read all of the rambles. It was great meeting some new faces on the prompt, and I am thankful to my regulars for making my prompt so successful to reach new friends.

This week’s questions are weird and silly, so ramble on however you wish. I wanted to lighten the mood with some questions that could make you smile or laugh while answering them.

This week’s topic is “Weird and Silly“.

Remember to be silly and have fun with these answers πŸ™‚

Here are the questions:

  1. What are five things you could buy at a gas station to make the cashier look at you oddly?
  2. If someone were to narrate your life, who would you choose to do it?
  3. Have you ever given an impromptu speech about something you know nothing about?
  4. What will be the most laughable artifacts they find from our generation?
  5. Time stands still for everyone except you for an hour. How would you spend that time?

Once you have answered all of the questions, be sure to tag it with #EM-SRP and create a pingback to this post.

Please visit your fellow bloggers to see their rambles. It’s a nice way to get to know them *smiles*

xoxo, E.M.


Here are my answers:

What are five things you could buy at a gas station to make the cashier look at you oddly?
Bubblegum, a torch lighter, diapers, chocolate milk, and a can of motor oil…
If someone were to narrate your life, who would you choose to do it?
James Earl Jones or Maya Angelou (see videos at the bottom of my post)
Have you ever given an impromptu speech about something you know nothing about?
Yes, and it was a nightmare. I was unprepared, and I think it was my Freshman year in high school. I was supposed to read a book for class (English, I think), and I did not do it. I went to class the next day, and the teacher started calling all of us to the front to do an oral book report. We had to put all of our books away under our desk, so I couldn’t do a quick study of it while others were telling their takes on the book. Well, I got called up to the front, and I had no idea what to say. The teacher knew that there would be some kids that didn’t read the text, so it was like a pop quiz. That was my only “F” in English, ever.
The moral of the story is to stay ready…life is unexpected always.
What will be the most laughable artifacts they find from our generation?
These 65 Items
Time stands still for everyone except you for an hour. How would you spend that time?
The joker inside of me would want to move things around in people’s pockets and hands.
The serious side of me would make a big pot of coffee, grab my cigarettes and a good book, and then I would just enjoy the quiet for that hour.

xoxo, E.M.

    So is that the voice you use when you are endeavouring to play with the bubblegum, a torch lighter, diapers, chocolate milk, and a can of motor oil…

    What are five things you could buy at a gas station to make the cashier look at you oddly?

    Rubber gloves, a bunch of bananas, a packet of marshmellows,lube and a plunger …. l am buying for a friend …

    If someone were to narrate your life, who would you choose to do it?

    Alvin ….

    Have you ever given an impromptu speech about something you know nothing about?

    Oh goodness gracious me yes, l had to talk once about edible condoms.

    What will be the most laughable artifacts they find from our generation?

    Edible condoms, inflatable sheep, the tiniest bits to most of our abstract machinery,

    Time stands still for everyone except you for an hour. How would you spend that time?

    My life is pretty quiet anyway, l don’t really people that much, however the naughty mischevious side to me, would change people’s postures into strange and bizarre ones , l’d wear a mask just in case they could see me … you never know, there’s always a twist in these things, nothing’s ever straight forwards. Probably play ooooher missus with a few folks!

    1. Imagine the voice of the guy who asks if they have any Grey Poupon πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ Rubber gloves and bananas eh? As long as you do not use them with the inflatable sheep, but on the other hand, it could make it to an episode of Jackass if you did. (Not that you are a jackass, though). Edible condom presentation I bet was a hoot! Did you happen to record that one lol?
      I would want a mask to be mischievous too, and to avoid incriminating myself by other things I would think to do πŸ™‚
      Big smiles and hearty laughs again from you, Rory!

        Edible condom content no evidence of now, shame really, l was drunk when l talked about their nutritious benefits back in the day πŸ™‚

        Would make for some light hearted relief in today’s climate.
