Question #362 Categories

posted August 27th by phil

I’m sorry if I asked this before, I may have, I don’t remember.

Someone really smart once said that there are kinds of people in the world:  the ones who think you can divide people into two groups and the ones who think you can’t.

What are the two kinds of people in the world?

BONUS QUESTION:  Which kind are you?

    People come in two varieties: Jarritos and Peñafiel. Jarritos all the way for me.

    For me it’s triscuits or wheat thins. I’m a triscuits man. Triscuits are heartier and more manly. Although, as I’ve already mentioned, I will eat wheat thins…so long as no one is looking and they are my roommates and the only thing in the house.

    There are also those people who accept soy substitutes for things and those who do not. Personally, I am confused by soy and therefore do not trust it. I do not understand how it can be sausage and milk at the same time. This should be impossible.

    The Englishman believes that there are three types of people. The adders, the subtractors and the neutrals… these are all quantified in units of ‘what they bring to the party’… For instance, Beth is an Adder (she can hold a conversation with anyone, and will break out with dance in a heartbeat)… we had this one girl who was a subtractor, but we kept her around for her spinach and artichoke dip. But then we found someone who was an adder AND made a better dip, so there you go.

    WOW! I am an adder!

    (That is all I have to add to this convo. So sorry! I’d break out into a dance, but then I’d just be dancing alone. In my office. While the housekeeper looked on.)

    People come in two varieties: Hostess and Little Debbie. I am a Hostess man.

    i was gonna say hostess or home run (fruit pies), but phil took hostess. i would’ve took it if he wouldn’t have. here are some others:

    gummi bears or swedish fish. i’m with the fish.

    schuller or osteen. given the choice, i’ll take osteen.

    country or western. country.

    i was trying to figure out a way to say that people are either on jake’s side or phil’s, but the truth is that, even in disagreement, they are really on the same side. and not in a gay way. not that there’s anything wrong with that.

    after getting to work on an incredible project with metallica this weekend, i am currently dividing people into these two groups:
    1. people who realize that metallica is the best live band around these days
    2. people who disagree, and are wrong.

    as far as i am concerned there is me and then there is everybody else… only two categories i care about!

    2. people that do not.

    Johnsons and Shits.

    To wit…

  • 12 Lauren B. // Aug 28, 2008 at 12:46 pm

    Cake or pie people. (pro shorts or anti shorts is a close second)

  • 13 beth // Aug 28, 2008 at 1:11 pm

    @Daniikins. A-mazing. Thanks for sharing!

  • 14 jake // Aug 28, 2008 at 2:10 pm

    Lukes & Hans.

    I’m a Han, of course.

  • 15 pete g // Aug 28, 2008 at 2:54 pm

    With me or against me.

    Unfortunately, I seem to often be against me

  • 16 feverishpoptart // Aug 28, 2008 at 4:48 pm

    People who like black licorice, and people who don’t. I don’t like black licorice, because I’m not a freak of nature.
