Yes, you are reading what you think you’re reading…another blog post by yours truly. Please don’t die of shock, I am indeed updating it (finally).
I apologise for not posting sooner but I am reaching the end of my final year at Uni, (only a week and a half left to go) and so have been focusing on that. However once that is all done and dusted I will have all the time in the world to bore you all with my brilliant thoughts and theories.
Now the topic of this blog post may seem a bit odd. No, I didn’t get into a bar fight, but if I did I would totally win (not). Someone posed the question to me, whilst in the pub in my pyjamas, that if I could choose five people to fight with me in a bar fight then who would they be? They could be anybody, dead or alive, including fictional characters.
After some careful consideration, and a couple of pints, I came to the conclusion that I would have:
1) Jayne Cobb from Firefly – Complete with Vera (his beloved gun of choice).
2) Spike from Buffy – From the Season Two ‘School Hard’ era where Spike was bad ass and not wimping around after Buffy.
3) John Casey from Chuck – Yes, I know that I have already had one of Adam Baldwin’s characters, but there weren’t any rules against this!
4) Malcolm Reynolds from Firefly – He’s experienced at bar fights, and knows how to make a hasty getaway.
5) Dean Winchester from Supernatural – Mmmmm…*shakes head* What was I saying?
So there you have it, the five people who I would have with me in a bar fight. This list has been edited since that night in the pub; Gandhi and Chuck Norris were considered for the list…but were struck off due to their inability to be good to go for a drink with.
But what I’m curious about is who you guys would pick? Think you’ve got a better list than mine? Then I’d love to hear it. Just click on the title of this post and type me a message in the comment box. It’s that simple.
Also comments have been made on my ’10 Reason for Lack of Sleep’ post. However since I get a lot of spam, and hence are unsure whether you are real people or just computers, you should drop me a comment on here so that I know you’re real!
I’ve now had time to think about this and my definitive list (for this week) is:
1) Rhade from Andromeda ( the second one, Telemachus, with the long hair, beard and no shirt) – decorative and good in a fight.
2) Puss in Boots from Shrek – small, scrappy and can trip people up.
3) Xena – not only great in a fight, but can jump over people’s heads if there’s a queue at the bar.
4) Sharpe (as played by Sean Bean not from the books)
5) Bad Horse from Dr Horrible – not only good for the getaway, but people in cowboy hats follow him around singing, what’s not to like?
People who almost made the list include Sarah from Chuck, Captain Scarlet and, of course, your good self.
