Multiple Choice

I'm sure I am not the only person who is asked embarrassing/personal questions at holiday parties.  I usually give some dumb obtuse answer and think of a snappy comeback about ten minutes later.  Since I am customarily asked the same questions year after year, I will record them here so that I can remember my response and spend the next 365 days formatting more piquant answers. Because I apparently have nothing else to do.  That's why.

Just for fun, take this multiple choice test and guess which answer was mine!

1)  Are you pregnant?
a- No, I just ate all the chocolate out of my stocking in one day.
b- Uhhh, hmm err.  Huh?
c- No.
d- Heck no!
e- Why?  Are you?

2)  Are your kids always this hyper?
a- Only when they eat this much sugar.
b- Those aren't actually my kids.
c- You consider this hyper?
d- Usually they are about 15 decibels louder than this.
e- You mean those Tasmanian devils with the same last name as me?

3)  How much money did you guys pull in this year?
a- More than you.
b- 50 cents.
c- Eh, errrr.  Gak.  Fum.
d- Not enough.
e- Some.

4)  Why did you guys vote for Obama up there in Oregon?
a- You don't know who I voted for.
b- Obama who?
c- He has cute kids.
d- Look! Is that Santa?
e- I didn't vote.  I was too lazy (or busy?) to fill out the card and mail it in on time.  I know, shame on me.

5)  When are you guys having another kid?
a-  Never.
b-  I'll call you the minute the stick turns pink.
c-  Ah, hem.  Erk.  
d-  I dunno.
e-  When I win the lottery.

6)  Isn't this the longest residency in the history of the world?
a- I'm trying not to think about it.  Please don't bring it up.
b- Yes.
c- I think there was this other guy, once in New York.  Or was it Florida?  Anyway, he did three different specialties . . . it took him twice as long.  He finished before he was 54, so we still have some time left before we catch up with him.
d- Michael could probably figure out a way to tack some more years on if I'd let him.

2-a
