I rarely ask my wife ILX questions but I put this to her last night and it was "the Moon" in a heartbeat then I got "That's not even a question really. People are choosing the Beatles? What? 300 Posts? That's what you people waste your time thinking about?"

That's why I rarely ask my wife ILX questions.

one of my greatest fears in life is someday having a level-headed, pragmatic wife who discourages me, even gently, from thinking and talking about "nonsense."

Treeship, Thursday, 16 May 2013 13:47 (thirteen years ago)

"have some sense of proportion," she would say -- thirty-eight times a day. and so he built the Total Perspective Vortex, just to show her. and into one end he plugged the whole of reality (as extrapolated from a fairy-cake), and into the other end he plugged his wife. so that when he turned it on she saw in one instant the whole infinity of creation, and herself in relation to it.

to trin tragula's horror, the shock annihilated her brain. but, to his satisfaction, he realized he had conclusively proved that if life is to exist in a universe of this size, the one thing it cannot afford to have is a sense of proportion.

It completely slipped my mind that I walked on the moon earlier this year.

Fun, but I'm still voting Beatle.

Put it this way:

Which of the Beatles would rather have walked on the moon?

And which of the moonwalkers would rather have been in The Beatles?

Christ imagine being stuck in a capsule with John Lennon for four days

I mean I love him but christ.

George is probably maybe the chillest? Moody, but at least more of a listener and sort of quiet.

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 May 2013 20:28 (thirteen years ago)

I can see Michael Collins as a Beatle. He'd be good in a press conference with the lads. Neil's def not a fit, and Buzz is ornery as fuck.

i think ringo would have been the easiest to get along with in a moon capsule. george would be quieter, but in a disconcerting way. pensive and mystical.

Treeship, Thursday, 16 May 2013 21:10 (thirteen years ago)

which one do you think smelled the worst (while living)?

probably trailing yak shit everywhere after his afternoon on the farm or whatever

john seems like he would have been pretty smelly towards the end

ringo LOVED garlic knots though and would order them whenever possible

Treeship, Thursday, 16 May 2013 21:23 (thirteen years ago)

paul was dead

the white queen and her caustic judgments (difficult listening hour), Thursday, 16 May 2013 21:23 (thirteen years ago)

having garlic breath vs. smelling like a hippie vs. smelling like a corpse

Treeship, Thursday, 16 May 2013 21:24 (thirteen years ago)

would rather walk on a beatle

george seems like he would've been kind of a neat freak.

(The Other) J.D. (J.D.), Thursday, 16 May 2013 21:48 (thirteen years ago)

when he wasn't on heroin john was obsessive-compulsive about being clean and took multiple baths a day, at least according to the goldman book.

Ringo supposedly ate nothing but canned beans when they went to Rishikesh. Packed a trunkful of 'em.

The personal transforming effects of walking on the moon seem be described in the same gushing terms as swimming with dolphins, which makes me kinda skeptical that its a universally amazing experience. There is potential that in my lifetime it will be possible to visit the moon for a couple of grand. Even then, like with swimming with dolphins, I don't think I'll bother.

Waterfalls of pussy is only one advantage of being the omnipotent god-poets that the Beatles became. Beatle all the way.

at least according to the goldman book.

Uh, right

The Moon, obviously. It is the ultimate travelling experience, amoung many other beautiful things.

Voted for the Moon, have done the band thing (not as big as the beatles though).
Wouldn't mind the £500 million + in the bank to retire with though.

not_goodwin, Friday, 17 May 2013 12:34 (thirteen years ago)

dolphins are sadistic little dickheads; they're almost as bad as us. eat em all. none of them on the moon, thank god.

I can't speak for anyone else but swimming w dolphins was pretty awesome tbh

I'm fairly certain it was more fun than being hassled by Paul McCartney while recording Maxwell's Silver Hammer
