: Try to recall what went through your head and share. As you can see, every other on is VA related. Some of these may not apply to you yet. What were your first thoughts when:
~~ Man with questions like these I feel like a very new fan, and an innocent.
: -You found out that Kevin's new movie "Dogma" would feature a monster made of shit?
~~ I didn't know about it until I saw it the day I rented it. I thought the idea behind it was pretty cool, and the fact that it was a shit monster just made me laugh.
:
: -Someone pulled their pants down in front of you for the purpose of upcoming sex?
~~ N/A
:
: -Kevin first responded to a post of yours?
~~ I was pretty damned excited. I thought holy shit, Silent Bob is answering my question. I have never really met a celebrity so it was pretty exciting. I remember telling all my friends that day, many of which don't know Kevin Smith by name, but know of his movies, if you know what I mean.
:
: -You failed your first test?
~~ I don't think I've ever failed a test. I've come awfully close but I don't think I've ever actually failed a test (or at least not one that was worth a fair bit)
:
: -You saw a trailer or commercial for Mallrats?
~~ Is there one on the DVD? I don't own it so I don't really know. But it was probably something like: Thats what they put in the commercial. I only saw that movie for the first time a year and a half ago. I don't remember seeing it on TV when it came out. What the funny thing is, is that I do remember a TV commercial for Clerks. Go figure
:
: -You first saw the video for "Hit me Baby One More Time?"
~~ I thought MY LORD that girl is GORGEOUS. I've since reformed my view of her to merely cute.
:
: -You woke up with your first hangover ever?
~~ I have never gotten drunk to the point of a hangover. The worst I've had is a slight headache. Then again I'm a big guy and it takes quite a bit to get me really drunk, and I know my limits on where I get drunk enough to have some fun but not feel sick at all.
:
: -You heard that the Dogma cast included some big name celebrities such as Chris Rock, Salma Hayek, and so on?
~~ I thought: "Hey, that movie as a great cast, I think I want to see that." I rented it and it is still one of my faves. And the first DVD I ever bought.
:
: -You punched a person violently for the first time?
~~ Never done it. I'm not a real violent person.
:
: -You heard what the plot of "Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back" was going to be?
~~ I thought "Okay, whatever". I was unfamiliar with Jay and Bob outside of them in Dogma, and wasn't a huge Kevin Smith fan then. Then I decided to see all of Kev's movies with JSBSB last.
:
: -You got were involved in your first automobile accident?
~~ The first one I remember was when I was about 7 or 8 and we were in a mall parking lot when a guy turned a corner when it was our right-of-way and we rear-ended him. He took the fault if I remember correctly.
:
: -You heard JLO was starring in Jersey Girl?
~~ Something along: "Wouldn't have been my choice, but I trust Kevin."
:
: That's all. Just trying to keep it fun and unique.
