Meta Question

Would you participate in the following "ask a question as a different Jelly" setup?

Asked by rebbel (35553points) December 12th, 2019

The plan is as follows (this, assuming that it is okay):
Volunteers are going to ask a question in the style of another Jelly (that has given permission).
It is all going to happen in this thread.
Jellies that don’t mind to be impersonated can join in impersonating other Jellies that have noted that they don’t mind.
Everybody that doesn’t allow it, can’t play, only watch.
It’s supposed to be only fun, positive, fun impersonations.
But, of course, one might feel a bit weird, a bit awkward, a bit annoyed maybe even, when one sees how other Jellies perceive them (or their style of asking questions, that is).
So, when you play, be prepared for that potentially happening.
I don’t know if I have a style, but (obviously) I give permission myself (to be made fun off ;-) ).
A question, for those that want to play; shall we name the impersonated Jelly, or let it be a quest(ion)?
The first bit of the thread can be for Jellies to give permission, and to debate the rules (and the question whether it’s okay to do it in the first place).
After 24 hours we can start by really starting to ask questions (as the other Jelly).
So that’s 24 hours from now (I’ll give the start sign, in ways of an announcement in the thread).

This might be fun, or a total dud… :-)

Is it ok to use tung oil on one’s beard? that’s all I’ve got:)

rebbel's avatar

@lucillelucillelucille I’ll take that as a yes (I want to join)?
If I am correct, you may play tomorrow, after, potentially, some others have said they want to participate too!
At least we can impersonate each other, as we are so far the only ones that are willing to :-)

KNOWITALL's avatar

If we give permission, is it for everyone or only to our trusted friends?

rebbel's avatar

@KNOWITALL Only to those that have come to this thread, stating that they want to play (thus giving permission to also be impersonated themselves).
If you say yes, I’ll play, we would be with three, so far.
You can then choose to either ask a question, a la @lucillelucillelucille, or a la @rebbel.

There is, theoretically, a chance that your arch enemy also decides to play, resulting in the possibility he or she is going to ‘do you’...
Keep that in mind!

Sounds fun. I’ll play.

I will participate ONLY if loli enlists.

KNOWITALL's avatar

Fine, four people I like signed up. Permission to razz is granted. Best of luck mates.

josie's avatar

I’m pretty sure I already know how I’m perceived but on the other hand I knew it would be a tough job when I took it.

Deal me in!

chyna's avatar

Ok, I’m in.

KNOWITALL's avatar

@josie May be good for a laugh at least!

ucme's avatar

@josie Believe it or not, but some of these loons perceive me as a negative pervert :D
The polar opposite is in reality the truth but hey, let’s laugh at them…a lot!

cookieman's avatar

Sure. I’m in.

chyna's avatar

Asking as @lucillelucillelucille What makes you happy? This makes me happy.

josie's avatar

Has the game started? Any rules I need to know?
I’ll be in and out so I’ll check back.

rebbel's avatar

The game starts in three hours from now (it’s now 10 am East Coast, 7 am West Coast)

Until @Jonsblond comes back and clarifies her response, let’s rule her out of participating.

I’m not sure if it is good, or bad, to state who gets impersonated….
Shall we don’t say, and let others guess?
Or do say who we do?

josie's avatar

See you later

chyna's avatar

Oops I started too early.

rebbel's avatar

@chyna You are excused! @lucillelucillelucille started yesterday already :-)

rebbel's avatar

GAME ON!!

The rules are flexible, @Coolhandluke.
I feel you did great!

Now that Jolly Boris has won the elections in Great Britain, who do you think will be the scorer of the winning goal in the World Championship Football (that’s soccer for you Yanks :-) ) against Belgium?
& will this be in 2030 or 2042?

Much more fun to try to guess than name who you’re asking as.

Do you have any recipes that will make my brain tingle, challenge my sense of justice, and appeal to my big, warm heart?

rebbel's avatar

Just to state again: in this game it is not allowed to impersonate Jellies that haven’t given consent; only those that stated that they want to play can play (and be played/impersonated).
Otherwise there’s a risk that someone, potentially, does someone in a mean way, and/or someone taking it in the wrong way.

ucme's avatar

I mean, you’d think folks would read the bloody details, not rocket science & has been clarified twice since!

Who has some nice, traditional, ethnic recipes containing ground gold leaf, saffron, and sun dried female goat milk, to celebrate Midwinter?
Preferably dessert recipes, that go with my homemade Glühwein – Marshmallow cocktail!

Oh what fun I’ve been missing! I’m in. I’m wishing to see answers for some of the questions above.

Help! My foxes have all moved to other parts. What do I do with this pile of squirrels I shot?
<Details> the squirrels would require a box with approximately four cubic feet of space. Can I mail them somewhere? How much would the delivery cost be? Does anyone here have any hungry foxes around?
.......,........................................

When I visit the states, what are my chances of seeing a raccoon? <Details> If I see one, is it safe to feed them?

….. ...................................

Dog lovers only <details> I’m going to visit family for Christmas. I will be gone for four days. Is there some way I can reassure my dogs that I will come back when I leave them with the sitter? Should I give their presents to the sitter to be opened on Christmass, or should I give them the presents when I get back home?

Patty_Melt's avatar

@rebbel, is there some kind of goat milk other than female? If you have been milking the wrong kind of goats, i think you won’t want to drink that. ;-)

rebbel's avatar

@Patty_Melt You’d have to ask the Jelly that asked it?
