Re: iGent Quiz for You to Take
You have a once-in-a-lifetime invitation from Sir Richard Branson to take an intergalactic trip aboard his new rocketship. The first thought that occurs to you is...
Am I really courageous enough to venture into the great unknown?
What if something goes wrong and I never see my friends and family again?
Would my body withstand the intense G-forces?
Can Anderson & Sheppard make a bespoke spacesuit with proper drape?

Re: iGent Quiz for You to Take
A dear friend dies following a grueling illness and you are asked by the grieving family to deliver the eulogy. Touched, you begin to collect your thoughts as your heart is flooded with emotion...
Why does God take them so young?
What were the most memorable times we spent together?
How loved he was by everyone who knew him
How will I go on without my best friend?
Should my socks match my trousers or my shoes?

Re: iGent Quiz for You to Take
An iGent walks into a bar wearing a suit with sufficient drape, but with gaping holes in its fabric. He orders a drink, and one of the drunks seated at the bar blurts: "Hey, buddy, that's a funny-looking outfit." The iGent sniffs and replies: "Obviously you don't recognize Lesser cloth."

An iGent walks into a bar wearing a stroller and button boots, with a pile of shit on his head. He orders a drink and one of the drunks seated at the bar points to his head and blurts: "Hey, buddy, what the hell?" The iGent sniffs and replies: "The modern rules permits one to wear brown in town."

Re: iGent Quiz for You to Take
LOL funniest thread in a long time...
You're about to enter Heaven's doors. To your surprise, Saint Peter gives you two choices: 1. eternal life in Heaven, or 2. reincarnation. What best describes your reaction?
-I am going to Heaven. No way in hell I am returning to Earth
-(with tears of excitement) Whew! Just when I thought I would never, ever experience another elevator ride to Charvet's shirtings room... AND in the company of another iGent!
