Yes, it's time to drag out the ridiculous questions and annoy another favorite blogger, Josie from the awesome blog Yum Yucky. (Note: Josie turned 41 yesterday, and celebrated the event not by sensibly diving face first into a vat of chocolate cake as I would have, but by constructing a booty challenge and eating cereal and bacon. Go figure!)
In addition to great blog posts, Josie is an awesome source for fun, informative, and hilarious videos, something you ain't gonna find here at Cranky Fitness unless Crabby has begged someone else to do 'em for her.
Welcome, Josie, and here are your annoying questions! --Crabby
1. If a disturbed but mysteriously well-connected psychopath held a gun to your head and made you choose a celebrity for a one night private "workout" (nudge nudge wink wink), and your family was sobbing and pleading with you to do what the psychopath said so there was absolutely nothing you could do but comply and no need to feel guilty, who would you choose?
Oh geeze, would you PLEASE be more specific? Are we talking water gun, pellet gun or paintball gun? It turns out that the hubs and I already had this conversation years ago (impressed much?), but I honestly can't remember if he gave me permission to chick-a-bow-bow under gun point or not. Yet me thinks I'd just have to use the "man holds a gun to your head" emergency escape ninja move that my hubs taught me last summer. I never had so much fun practicing how to gouge someone's eyes out.
[Wait...Crabby can't help but notice that Josie dodged the question! Wasn't that sneaky? But we heard from a reliable source that she has a secret crush on Don Knotts even though he's dead and kinda creepy looking.

Which we weren't gonna reveal, but that's what happens when people try to avoid Crabby's annoying questions!]
2. What fitness product or food yet to be invented are you most eager to see hit the shelves?
What a coincidence that you would ask me this question. My "Food Teleporter Prototype" is currently in mass production and ready to be shilled, errr, I mean, marketed to you and your readers.
It is a multi-gazillion dollar idea and I will be very rich, so you better think twice about bad-mouthing my invention because I will gain wealth and power -- more power than the CIA, FBI, NSA and all the other alphabetical letters you could ever imagine.
3. What do you hate most about trying to live a healthy lifestyle? (Yes this is a totally boring question but I've been asking everyone a version of it and no one wants to admit healthy living bites, so thank you for sucking it up and answering anyway, ok?)
The worst thing ever is that I can no longer be a candy cigarette chain smoker like I was when I was 12. People would judge me now and that pretty much sucks. Besides that problem, I try to get in my veggies but not always enthused about it. Yet my Vegetable Osmosis Technique for absorbing extra nutrients did, in fact, lead to a Cabbage Couture Headwear line that I'm damn proud of.
What would you guys ask Josie? And is she not awesome?!
I love Josie, I just added her to my blogroll, I love finding new bloggers to follow.
ReplyDeleteOh my god. I've heard of a blog out there called Yum Yucky but never read it. That photo of the cabbage hat? SEALS THE DEAL. This is a woman I cannot miss out on. Headed over there RIGHT EFFING NOW.
ReplyDeleteOMG! "Cabbage Hat" and "Cabbage Headwear" is not the same thing. We totally started off on the wrong feet here. But, hayyy gurrrl. Nice to meet you anyways. ;)
DeleteJosie is always awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI just want her to get that food teleporter prototype done so that I can experience some of the delicious food everyone blogs about!!!
Duh! Teleporter is already on sale. Why you no buy? I give you deep discount of .50 cents off the regular price of $10,000.
DeleteIt's not worth that much unless it carefully removes the calorie content of the teleported food. (The calories, not the flavor, as happens with transported food.)
DeleteMary Anne in Kentucky
solarity, I have another device call the "calorie extractor", which transfers all calories eaten to your worst enemy. You eat the food, they suffer the calorie consequences. Muuwahahahaaaaa!
DeleteMaybe all calories eaten isn't such a good idea..? #8-/
DeleteJosie is amazing, and her workouts make me stretch myself to keep up. Love your answers here, Josie!
ReplyDeleteI love Josie's answers she is so imaginative and clever!
ReplyDeleteYou really need to make an exercise DVD with attitude. That would be so great! OK fine I could string together some of your videos but I'm lazy and there is the problem. Also vegetables Blah!
As it happens I bought all the stuff except the cilantro for the "There ain’t no dang way I can shovel all this food into my stomachs" juice today. I had to walk home with all that stuff!!! If I had fallen into a snow bank with my groceries on top of me They would never have found me until spring. LIE! The raccoons would have dug me out by nightfall.
Don't count on the raccoons. Those are some evil animals. They are all about "self". Just ask the one that keeps coming onto my back deck at night, stealing my cat's food. Damnation to the raccoons! ALL OF THEM!!!
DeleteI hate Josie.
ReplyDeleteNot only is she fit and healthy, she's funny as well!
Damn - I think I love her anyway!
Loved the Q&A!
Awww... I hate you, too, LuckyMama! And I mean that in a loving kinda way. ((insert hearts and smiley faces here))
DeleteJosie is always so fun to read & she has amazing workouts for peeps at home - I love her!!!!! Now teleport some cookies over here stat! ;)
ReplyDeleteJody, I am offended by your suggestion that I teleport you some cookies. Shouldn't you be teleporting them to ME??
Delete((the nerve of some people))
That Food Teleporter looks a lot like my patent pending Get To Work On Time Teleporter!
ReplyDeleteThe first rule of inventification: Never tell anyone your idea! Now I shall be hard at work building the "Get To Work On Time Telepod Transporter". Unless you patent if first, of course. Now where's my wrench???
DeleteIve loved her for seemingly EVER.
ReplyDeleteshe's one of the OGs of fitness blogging...
Yum Yucky - I love you! (and your answers) And Crabby! (and your questions)
ReplyDelete'Nuff said :).

Ok, you, Josie, are freaking adorable. I will now read you everyday. Thank you, Cranky, for making my life just that much more fun.
ReplyDeleteLoved Josie's answers. I'll have to remember that cabbage couture on my next bad hair day. The food teleported sounds good too. I love sci-fi.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the playground workout though. But the "barely escape breaking your neck (not pictured)" made me laugh out loud! Yes, really. Good post Crabby.
