On Survivor - yes I'm stuck on that for the time being, get over it - all the participants get to choose a luxury item to bring along. Now, let's see... I'm on a deserted island and have no soap, no shampoo, no toothpaste or toothbrush but I'm gonna choose... a VOODOO DOLL as my luxury item... how fucking stupid is that? Yes, one of the players this season chose a voodoo doll. WHY? Oh, right.. wait, he's from Queens. heh.. what an idiot.

Now, one of the participants chose her pillow - that's logical. I take my pillow with me everytime I travel somewhere.. so that, to me, is a good choice... however I think I would most likely choose either toothpaste or a deck of cards.

What would you choose?
 
my vibrator and a whole lotta batteries (yes they DO count as one item!) Unless someone knows where I can get a solar powered vibrator??? :D

I wonder when someone is going to adapt the wind up cell phone power supply to vibrators? It should be all that difficult technically.

I think I'd take my World Band Radio. I can't sleep when it's too quiet.
 
My first thought was taking a bottle of shampoo with conditioner. But my hair coloring would be coming out anyhow, so when you mentioned the pillow, I think I would take along a certain stuffed animal to hold with me through the terrible lonely nights (chosing comfort over cleanliness).:rose:
 
I'd need a brush, or else I'd be fucked and have to cut my hair off or live with dread locks.









<grin> if I get the right kind of brush, the handle could double as a dildo, and the part that holds the bristles would be big and flat and double as a paddle. :D

I'd take my favourite stuffed animal because I abuse it as a pillow during the night anway and I need to hold something during the day at times. It also has a very "homely" smell. :)


Halo :rose:

NOW you're thinkin!
 
As much Scarffenberger chocolate as they'd let me bring.

There's no fucking way i'd even get close to winning the game without a chocolate fix now and then.
 
I'd take a picture of my daughter - does that count as a luxury item - if not it would have to be toothbrush and toothpaste (yes they count as one)
 
I'd take a sat phone with the hand crank power supply and internet access so I could still post to the Lit Forums!

*stands up* Hello, my name is Dawg and I'm addicted. . .
 
A good quality hunting knife, does that count as a luxury item? That can keep you fed and sheltered.

There are different plants you can use to make a soapy lather, and others you chew to freshen your breath. Salt or sand can clean your teeth. If you keep your hair braided, you won't need a brush.

If a good survival kit isn't considered a luxury, and if you already have one, I'd probably go with my blanket :) I don't like things crawling on me when I'm sleeping.
 
And then you could boil the bones down . . .

I think I'd take my dog. There's nothing like a bit of unadulterated adoration to lift one's spirits when stranded on a desert island, and if food was thin on the ground, I could skin, cook and eat him :)
at that would satisfy other needs, and then . . .
goddamn, foxy--you're a regular girl-guide

I think I'd want my blanket, or my super cool sleeping bag, I have a fear of creepy crawling things

I might be willing to let you borrow my solor recharger, if you are willing to help me out when needed darling. ;)

lol... Since my first hit of Scharffenberger lo these many months ago, I have not gone more than two days without a fix. They carry the lil one ounce bars at my local bakery, just the perfect size to keep me on an even keel. What is your favorite variety? I used to imbibe exclusively bittersweet, but lately have grown fond of the nibby bars.


Well I don't want no Anna Zabba
Don't want no Almond Joy
There ain't nothing better
Suitable for this boy
Well it's the only thing
That can pick me up
Better than a cup of gold
See only a chocolate Jesus
Can satisfy my soul

Cheater.. ;) I'd have to take a good, long reading book with me to pass away the time at night. And it can also be used for smashing bugs, or wandering hands, whichever I found the most revolting at the time.
 
Pen and paper. If I can't put words to paper? I may explode. :) Everything else I am
sure I can try and cope without.

:D
 
If we're allowed an inclusive item, I'd say my packed camping kit. It has alot of handy things I could use. Knife, first aid kit, cooking kit, small lantern, etc.

If it had to be a solitary item, I'd say a small laptop with batteries for the duration. I could have downloaded books, music, etc onto the computer, and that way I'd have a way to record my thoughts as well.
