So, I need to give this survey to eight people. And it's way easier to get my flist to do it than to go find eight people who I know and get them to do it. So! Here is a survey about "important issues today related to women’s health." I'm the only person who can see the answers. It would make my day if you (YES, YOU) would fill it out before midnight. Because that is when the ~analysis paper~ is due.

POINT IS. YOU HAVE BEEN CLONED. And here you have this other you, who is your age, who is, you know, you. And the question here is: WOULD YOU BANG YOUR CLONE?
ETA: FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, ASSUME YOU ARE SINGLE.
So, would you?

It is possibly because of the slight lack of food today (no, self, corn chips, a slice of pizza, a soda, a gross cookie, and some kefir is not enough calories for an entire day stop forgetting to eat) but everything I want to eat will take too long to cook so I am just saving it for tomorrow.
(Who has barbecue ribs? I HAVE BARBEQUE RIBS. Who just realized she probably does not have anything big enough to cook them in? I JUST REALIZED etc etc etc)
Hey who wants to see pictures of a garter snake?

Who wants to see the rope burn on my foot?
