Five Questions

I am mistaken then. Perhaps it was another comet or something similar. The memory I am very vaguely recollecting was when I was pretty young.

what year and month was it that you saw it? maybe i can identify the comet you saw. or at least narrow down the possibilities. if it interests you.

It would be good to know what I saw, but this was back when my nan was alive because I remember watching it from her house. She died in 1998 so it's got to be before then. So yeah, a long time ago, but I can't pinpoint a month or year unfortunately.

2. Do you find clowns scary?
3. Would you die in order to save 100 goats from drowning?
4. Name 3 badass movie villains?
5. If you intended to go mad, what hat would you wear?

1.- A seal, cause then I'd be cute and lovely looking.
2.- So much...well thanks to Pennywise, it used to be that way. Now I don't find them so much scary as I find them creepy.
3.- Fuck the goats. Unless the goat is [MENTION=12402]Miles[/MENTION], of course.
4.- Darth Vader (if we can manage to forget he used to be a whiny emo bitch), Hannibal Lecter and Heath Ledger's Joker.
5.- White formal shit and jeans. Nothing screams "crazy" more than pseudo-formality

1.- Are you a risk taker or not?
2.- Are you proactive or reactive?
3.- How should your SO smell?
4.- What is a flavor that takes you down memory lane?
5.- Can you control the people around you at will or is it the other way around?

Hale-Bopp was the one i was going to suggest to you myself as the most likely, just like [MENTION=23097]Insertnamehere[/MENTION] offered. what you saw had to have passed between 1992 and 1998, more likely when you were beyond the age of 5, though. Hale-Bopp offered one of the most spectacular views ever, so if that's what you saw, you should be able to recognize it in retrospect.

Hale-Bopp looked like this:







other possible contenders between those years would be Swift-Tuttle in 1992, Hyakutake in 1996, 55P/Tempel-Tuttle in 1998, and 21P/Giacobini-Zinner also in 1998.

Hyakutake was brightest for only a few days, starting from March 24, 1996, compared to the Hale-Bopp comet which achieved such a memorable effect in people's minds due to it having been visible for months (with intermission). Hale-Bopp was visible for 18 months altogether! it looked its most spectacular in April 1997 when it passed the perihelion.

Hale-Bopp also had two tails, whereas Hyakutake only had one (visible). that is also one way to determine whether you saw Hale-Bopp or not. Hyakutake's characteristic feature was that it had a distinctive greenish head.

Hyakutake comet looked like this:

Insertnamehere:

1.- Are you a risk taker or not?
Not really. I like to feel secure and safe. I'm very much willing to try new things and learn new perspectives. Like I'm a risk taker with food or trying out new experiences. But I wouldn't gamble very much with my health, finances, or things like that. I can spit out something that tastes bad... but im not going to take a serious, dangerous risk. I have a fantasy life where I'm a mountain climber though.

2.- Are you proactive or reactive?
I prefer to be proactive, I try to be when I can.

3.- How should your SO smell?
Clean.

4.- What is a flavor that takes you down memory lane?
Maybe cilantro. Funnel cake. A mouth full of salt water.

5.- Can you control the people around you at will or is it the other way around?
I'd like to think I live in a balance of influencing when I need to and accepting influence when I need to. The idea of "controlling" the people around me leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
