Snarky Brides

A thread of the poll variety.

Mine always fail, but whatever. I'm bored and I like polls.

1. What's the story behind your screenname?

2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same):

3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?

4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?

5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?

Re: A thread of the poll variety.

  • I won't be the reason you fail, boo.

    1. What's the story behind your screenname? I have been MissCourtney for almost 20 years. The 20 means "second to none". I didn't lurk on the boards before I got an account so I really didn't put too much thought into it. I soo would have chosen something else.

    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same): My laptop won't let me do PIP's. :)     But a word that describes our relationship is Peaceful. I have never had this much peace in a relationship in my life and it feels sooo good.

     
    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be? I would rob a bank!!!

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?  I took a great liking to Athena when my students studied Greek mythology last year.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't? I wish I woud have gone into modeling. I wish I hadn't waited 3 years after high school to go to college.
    And the whole time, my future husband was in the room...... image image

    1. What's the story behind your screenname? I was telling FI about how pretty the sunrise was one night early in our relationship when we'd stay up all night talking. He said something along the lines of me being prettier than any sunrise he'd ever seen. Hence, Anysunrise.
    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same): Yup, this is him flipping me into the lake. Our relationship is goofy and fun, and we both love fooling around with each other.


    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be? Right now, I'd probably rob a casino or something, all Ocean's Eleven like.
    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be? Athena. Badass.
    ETA: Nice pick MissCourtney =D
    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't? I wish I had gotten into the habit of exercising and eating better. I wish I hadn't gotten in the habit of not doing my homework or going to class.
  • I'll play!
    1. What's the story behind your screenname? it's just part of my email address. my name is rhonda (rho) and I do graphic design (design). but I'm a nurse too. I'm multi-crazy or something. =)

    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same):


    I'm Jay. He's Silent Bob.

    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?
    I'd rob a department store, like Nordstrom or Crate and Barrel--somewhere I can get tons of nice clothes and/or home furnishings

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?
    I was Athena in a 5th grade Greek Mythology play...so I guess her? She is the  goddess of wisdom AND war, so she's smart and a badass.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?
    I wish I had trained in dance formally. I tried but never was allowed to (too much money/not enough time for single mom, etc.) I don't think I have anything I wish I hadn't taken up, because there was very little that I did! =)

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?
    I really don't know.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?

    <div>Yeah, it stuck with me. He says sweet stuff every once in a while that just catches me off guard with how awesome it is. This was the first of those moments =)</div>
  • 1. I worked really, really hard on it. It's my nickname and a significant year.

    2.


    He's being protective,and I'm leaning on him for support. This was Thanksgiving last year (we're at my parents' house). And, as is typical, he isn't smiling.....

    3.  Find lots of cash somewhere - anywhere. And maybe slander the shiit out of my exhusband. Is it slander if it's true, though?

    4.  Eros - let others find love.

    5. More science, and I wish I'd paid a lot more attention in my major classes in college with my first degree. I probably wish I hadn't made so many poor decisions regarding the male species in my younger days.

  • 1. What's the story behind your screenname? All my SN's and email's start with red(something) but I didn't want to do anything I could be tracked so I thought of a pun off "ready, 1, 2, 3", because I thought getting married was a big jump. I didn't lurk, so I had no idea others would see it.
    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same):

    Free spirits....
    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be? Anything that puts money into my account, like illegally trading stocks. I have also daydreamed about ramming a car into a bank wall.
    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?Aphrodite or Hathor
    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?I always loved the piano, even though all my friends constantly complained about it. I wish I had never done choir because I really can't sing and doing solo auditions was torture!

    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be? Yeah Bank robbery. But a big bank, with gold and stuff. Ft.Knox maybe.

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be? I have no clue.....Helen, I guess.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't? I wish I had stuck with the piano, or art school.

    Hmm...


    I like this question. I picked this picture because he's always got my back, and I will always let him lead while quietly guiding him along. We've got a very balanced relationship which is wonderful.

    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?
    Stealing a baby! No, jk :) Rob a bank, preferably Wells Fargo/Wachovia because they are evil to begin with.

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?
    I think...Athena.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't? I honestly don't know. I did a lot as a kid. If anything I wish I continued everything I used to do. I wish I hadn't picked up my messy habits, they've been hard to break.

    Have I ever told you the cake cutting story? No? You want to hear it you say? Ok you twisted my arm.

    Scott's mom was very adamant about Scott's hand going on the sword, and mine above his, because he could guide the sword down and I just sort of had to be there. I don't think she realized I was weapon trained and have collected swords since I was 15. *Insert joke about how I can handle a sword* We go to the cut the cake and the dj goes "Now folks, watch as Scott places his hand on top of Kristi's. Take pictures, because this is the only time he will ever have the upper hand in the relationship." Yay, I got to guide the sword.

    here's one of us that really sums it up nicely (I didn't realize I was doing it wrong)


    It's lo-res because the original is too big.
    Anywhoo--we're both goofy nerds. He's a metal head hence the horns, and I do it but with a slight gangsta lean--we're a lot alike, but the subtle differences are what make it interesting. I like to put my own twist on things, and we support eachother's interests even if they aren't our own. =)

  • 1. What's the story behind your screenname? It's lame. It's my name and my birthday, and I use it for stuff when I need a screenname for something. If I knew I was going to be participating in forums, I would have made a better name.

    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same):


    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?
    Think Ocean's Eleven.

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?
    Well, I don't believe in deities, so I guess I would be a centaur and then get a cat scan so I can finally find out what their internal organs look like.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?
    I wish I had started ballroom dancing much earlier. I wish I wasn't encouraged to be a clean your plate kid. Because man do I clean my plate.

    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same):
    This one because we're very close, and in our own little worlds. Plus we're both quiet, reserved, and rarely laugh or give full on smiles:




    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?
    This I can't say, as it involves people tat know me.

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?
    Hmm. Poseidon because I love the water. Hestia for hearth and home, since that's my favorite place. Or Artemis, since I would love to be the huntress.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?
    Swimming, or that I had stuck with it. I wish I had ignored my attempt at soccer.

    1. What's the story behind your screenname?  Eh it's just a dumb play on a dumb song.  Kind of a dumb SN, really - but I'm way too lazy to change it and don't really care :) the song is All About the Benjamins, which is obviously about money - but my fiance's name is Benjamin, so.... there's that.

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?

    1. What's the story behind your screenname?
    It's my name and a significant day of a month. I definitely had nooo clue about the boards when I signed up so I just used something I'd remember. Dangit.

    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same):
    I think I've posted the first pic before but this is me trying to get a cute picture with my DH and he's being a goofball.  Anndd I love the second picture of us from last Christmas because I made him dress up in matching Christmas t-shirts to go look at Christmas lights. He fought it but eventually gave in and even let me wear my mistletoe headband for a kissy picture!








    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?
    Obviously I would rob enough money from a bank where I could transfer all of the money to a high-interest Swiss bank account so I could live off the interest for the rest of my life.

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?
    Hera ... mainly because she wears a crown and I would also like to wear a crown

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?
    I wish I had continued on with voice lessons. I wish I wouldn't have gotten into the nervous habit of biting my cuticles. Yuck.


  • 1. What's the story behind your screenname?
    My FI last name is Little,  so we will have a little marriage, little family and I just thought a little love was cute.

    2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same):
    I can't figure out how to put a picture in here, so I guess something that describes us is we balance eachother. Sometimes I say goofy things or say things that are inappropiate ( I tend to do this when nervous)and he is fine in these types of situations,  and then he has no problems saying what he thinks and I have a hard time with that to people.

    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?
    Rob a rich person who keeps all their stuff in a safe. I want their bars of gold and  and cash, keep the jewelry and then all their classy art and whatnots that I can donate to museums

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be?
    Aphrodite

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?

    1. What's the story behind your screenname? <strong>It's my first inital, last name
    </strong>
     2. Post a picture that sums up your relationship with your BF/FI/H (or just describe a time that does the same): <strong>I was transferring jobs in the hospital I work at. The girls on the floor all wanted to meet me so the person that was going to be training me called me to see if I could come up. Well I met this man tall, handsome, blue eyes, dark hair and I thought wow I've just met the man of my dreams.</strong>


    3. If you could get away with one crime, and one crime only, what would it be?
    <strong>LOL Sorry! I'd murder FI's Ex wife</strong>

    4. If you could be any deity from any mythology, which would you be? <strong>Hmm... I'm not sure...</strong>

    5. What was one thing you wish you had taken up when you were younger, and what is one thing you wish you hadn't?<strong> Getting better grades!! LOL. Shopping(thanks Mom)</strong>
