One of us has to come up with two words/names/items and the other has to choose which one she prefers. It can be something very simple like "Red or Pink?" to more challenging ones like, “Vodka or Gin?"
The aim of the game is not just to get to know each other better, but also to drive the other person absolutely bonkers. ("ARRGHH! GAAAAAKS!!! How can you ask me to choose between those two!????")
The trick is, we have to think of two things which the other person likes with equal degree. For example, one of my questions that got Dailytoe into a twist is, "Johnny Depp or Mark Walberg?' *smirk* and the one that got ME in a fix is, "Fairies or Angels?" (Damn! She knows my queer obsession with winged creatures)
Although 90% of our questions are mostly bimbotic ("West Life or Backstreet Boys?"), we did venture into more 'taboo' topics such as sex, religion and politics. Unfortunately, we have to abandon one of our 'taboo' topics after we receive a certain godly sign in the form of a splat of bird dropping on our windscreen. That happened when one of us shouted out the name of an ex-premier of a certain country. Eeks!
Besides having fun making each other squirm, Dailytoe and I made a very interesting discovery from our little game. We found that we are actually quite polar opposite from each other. Often, we will have a different preference. For example, I like 'White', "Day" and "Sun" whereas she prefers "Black", "Night" and "Dark". She reveals that her nocturnal self even went through a Goth stage at one point in her life whereas I abhor the darkness so much that I never wear sunglasses.
Having said that, there are some 'core' things which we both absolutely agree on. Such as, climbing is mostly better than sex and that Karyn White's 'Superwoman' is the best song in the entire universe.
This prompted us to start singing a round of “Superwoman” – and we dedicate it to all women in the world whose men treat them like shit! Meow!
By the way, we sang "Superwoman" to a guy friend who hitched a ride in our car back to Singapore. He retaliated with Prodigy's "Smack my Bitch up". We promptly hit the eject button of his seat. Ingrate!
Coincidentally, this is one of our favourite pose too!
PS: In case you are wondering, I chose "Angels" (because their wings are bigger) and "Backstreet Boys" (only because it sounds like Backside Boys)

Now you say the juice is sour, it used to be so sweet... and I can't help but to wonder if you're talking 'bout meeeeee...
It's the best song on earth! We must have scared the poor boys in the car when we belted it out.
Love this post. I daresay it's one of your best! Haha!
