I'm not sure what you're talking about, really, but I'll take man vs. wild (as long as I get to keep my clothes on). :)
East Coast or West Coast (America)?
West Coast ........................though I would like to visit NY city and revisit D.C.
Britain: Isles or Empire ?
if we are talking about visiting, id say isles---ive been there bunches, have thoroughly enjoyed it and would like to visit Ireland.
pompey---lots of times the man vs wild guy (bear grylls) takes his clothes off to preserve them from getting wet in the freezing cold water he has to cross, soooooooooooo!
I think I tried to put this before and it didn't take, or maybe it did and ive forgotten:
Frankenstein or Dracula?
Assuming Frankenstein's monster....... Frankenstein
Abbott or Costello ?
I was thinking of the books when I wrote it, but that's okay...too much context might ruin things and there are lots of ways to interpret things.
ah I remember this one from before, have to go with Costello, otherwise nothings funny.
abbott & Costello or the three stooges?
A&C. They just had this Noel Coward thing about them that the Stooges lacked. Nuuk nyuk!
Mary Shelly's Frankenstein or Boris Karloff's Frankenstein?
oh good question...and related to the one I just asked on the "ask a question of the person below you" thread.
I think the book version elicits more emotion and drama...so I go with shelly.
the flintstones or the jetsons?
The Stones. Can you believe they're going to tour again?
Cool jazz ("West Coast") or bebop?
Cool jazz ("West Coast")............ any kind of jazz
Water or soda pop ?
Water
jazz or hip-hop?
Jazz
Dizzy Gillespie or Dave Brubeck?
im not well acquainted with jazz, so for me itd be an eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
but if you wanted to tell me your two favorite pieces of theirs, i'll give a listen and pick one!
M*A*S*H with hawkeye, trapper, frank burns and colonel blake or M*A*S*H with hawkeye, bj, major Winchester and colonel potter?
MASH with Donald Sutherland and Eliot Gould.
Dizzy Gillespie

or Dave Brubeck?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vmDDOFXSgAs
thank you pompey---I'm on dial-up internet at home and cannot watch video, but sometime next when im on high speed, i'll make a point of watching.
keeping in a similar vein: lennon or McCartney?
Sure! Let me know who you like then (the right answer's Diz, but the way :)).
Lennon (big time)
The Who or The Kinks?
The Kinks, but I'm not overly familiar with either group's output.
Tales about the sea or tales about what's beneath the earth?
The sea
Fantasy or science fiction
Fantasy by one hundred thousand leagues.
Goku or Vegeta?
I had to look that up and found out they are manga characters (did I say that right clopin?)
this is like the manga version of my jack reacher or mitch rapp question!
here's what I found too:
"They are the yin and yang. They balance each other out. They are the same power level (technically) but Goku always trained harder and always fought for others and never himself. Vegeta is that naturally gifted athlete who never had to work as hard to get where he wanted to go. There both cool but im going with Vegeta. Watching DBZ for so long and seeing him with that angry face, then you see him smile when he hugs his son during his buu battle. To watch him realize and accept many of his cares and insecurities made Vegeta seem more human."
and
"Goku Goku and Goku all the way. Not because he is the strongest but because he is the perfect mix of childlike and warrior like characters. When he is with his friends and family training or just resting, you love his childlike attitude. He is so strong and yet so gentle. Even Vegeta quoted " ....how can a saiyan fight like that and yet be so gentle that he wouldn't even hurt a fly...." . And when he needs to be aggressive, there is no stopping him. He will never give up even if it kills him. He is very noble of heart and always puts others ahead of himself.
"i like vegeta too. His attitude mind blowing. But the only drawback is his arrogance gets between his good judgements which caused him dearly many a times.
"And i like his catch phrase as well. You might have heard of it. It goes something like this "Kaaaaaa..........Mehhhhhh.................
"I broke into tears when he left with shenron. And also when he quoted "UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN!"
if its true that goku works harder, I am going to go with him!
hercule poirot or miss marple?
Poirot, I guess, although I'm not a big Agatha Christie fan, so I'm not really into either one.
Catching fish or eating the fish you catch?
Eating! Fishing's boring, sorry.
Content or form?
Content.
Elvis Presley or Costello?
*BEEEEEEEEP* wrong answer! hahaha
Not listened much to either but probably Presley, Costello's voice I find annoying.
Tempestuous love or placid?
Two sides of the same coin: you can't have one without the other.
Bacon or chocolate?
Bacon, you can eat more of it without getting sick.
Happy 2000th post!
Penguins or pandas?
Oh thank you. :)
Penguins: birds that swim; they're right out of the Island of Misfit Toys. Pandas are okay, but they are so overdone.
Flying foxes or naked mole rats?
Haha, what do you take me for, some kind of pervert? Flying foxes!
Small cuddly animals or big cuddly animals?
Big dogs, so I guess big cuddly animals.
Low paying job with cultural integrity or high paying job with a month and a half paid vacation?
Cultural integrity isn't a phrase I've encountered before, but that one, I think. But what do you mean exactly?
Sparkling water or plain?
Plain but pure. Like my women. (Just kidding).
Well, say as a librarian vs. a marketing analyst.
Anyway: women who want to talk about their cat or women who want to talk about your inherent sexism?
My inherent sexism, though I'd probably still feel affronted. But what's interesting to say about a cat, compared to ME?!!
Heroin or skydiving?
Oh come on. You're a cat fancier like the rest of us. ;-)
Skydiving. Heroine's too expensive.
Germanic mythology or Greek mythology?
Greek
porter or port wine?
Port wine. Any port in a storm, though.
And welcome to the site, North Star. :)
Saunas or volcanic springs?
I've been to natural hot springs but not volcanic ones. The latter over saunas, sounds more exciting, wilder.
I like cats plenty, but still don't see what there is to say about them. Tactile experience, primarily, in my opinion.
San Francisco or New York?
Oh yeah, hi, North Star. If you like Beethoven you must be cool.
San Francisco.
Boston or LA?
I've never been to Boston, but with all those intelligent well-read college girls walking around, surely it beats LA, which I don't like at all.
The original, or a clear improvement on the original? Show your work.
The original version of a movie (usually--Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was improved by the added scene of the liberation of the Island of Misfit toys, but that was an exception); but there's nothing wrong with digitally remastering a recording or technically restoring a film. No "coloration" though.
The better villain: Scrooge or Fagin?
Fagin is surely better at villainy.
