Let's play the first round of Mr. HamdenRice's You'll never guess who the fuck I am

[HamdenRice]

I am actually a semi-famous figure, but my guess is there is no fucking way any of you will guess who I am no matter how many fucking questions you ask.

OK, go ahead.

[Fire Walk With Me]

1. Crispin Glover.

Game over, man.

[HamdenRice]

4. Nope. Who the fuck is Crispin Glover

Sounds like the guy who played what's his name in Lethal weapon after he fell into a vat of boiling oil.

[Fire Walk With Me]

6. Crispin Glover is the correct answer to your question. Stop playing coy.

[Swede]

2. Are you a drunk male in New York?

:beer:

[HamdenRice]

3. Mr. Scorpio's rules, I should have said

except the 50 post limit.

And yeah, I've had a few beers, but I'm not drunk.

[Swede]

5. You're not drunk? Well I give up.

:beer:

[HamdenRice]

7. Awww com'on you can do better

Everyone's watching the convention.

[Swede]

8. What field are you famous in?

[HamdenRice]

9. No, it's not literally me. I'm pretending to be someone and you have to guess who

Just like MrScorpio isn't really Alexander Scriabin:

[Swede]

10. Somebody that's not you? Is he also sober?

:shrug:

[HamdenRice]

13. I don't think he's had a drink in a while

ooops.

[Swede]

17. Is he dead?

[HamdenRice]

18. Yes

[Swede]

22. That would explain the not drinking part.

How many questions do I have left? Does that last one count? Or that one? Damn.

[BeachBaby]

11. Andrew Dice Clay???

:hi:

[HamdenRice]

12. Not the diceman

[BeachBaby]

15. AZCat????

:hide:

[HamdenRice]

20. Nope

[skygazer]

16. Are you bigger than a bread box?

I always loved that question on What's My Line? They always asked it. Always. "Bigger than a bread box?"
"Smaller than a bread box?"

What is it with the fucking bread box? Do people still use bread boxes? My mom used one but I haven't seen one in ages.

One time the person actually did manufacture fucking bread boxes. Boy, did that ever confuse the panel!

[HamdenRice]

21. I grew up with a bread box

I don't know whether I am because I'm dead and buried.

[skygazer]

23. Like siblings?

Thats wierd. Did you like, share a room or something? :P

[Redstone]

24. I'm guessing somebody who says "fuck" (and its variations) a lot.

Not that there's anything fucking wrong with that.

Redstone

[HamdenRice]

25. He probably never said fuck

He was very polite. And if he did, he probably said fok or "naai".

Ooops.

[democracyindanger]

26. The goatse guy?

[HamdenRice]

29. Nope. Who the fuck is that???

[democracyindanger]

36. I could tell you, but only if you want your thread locked.

[kwassa]

28. Are you an anthropologist?

[HamdenRice]

30. No, but my grad school degree required me to study a lot of anthro and ...

this could be a profitable line of inquiry...

[kwassa]

34. sociology? archaeology?

I'm thinking as applied to African studies.

[HamdenRice]

49. Yeah,

not much sociology, but a considerable amount of local archaelogy.

[myrna minx]

52. LOL. I think you're correct. We'll never guess.

Is it Keith Jolly, who "discovered" Saldanha man?

[HamdenRice]

53. No , but someone downthread is getting really, really close!

[Chan790]

55. Is it?

Robert Broom?

[HamdenRice]

57. No

[myrna minx]

45. Are you from South Africa?

Are you Stephen Biko?

[HamdenRice]

46. yes and no! getting close!

but i'm less well known than Biko.

[myrna minx]

47. Was your death horrendous like Mr. Biko's or did you die naturally?

Were you in exile?
Were you loosely or directly connected with Mr. Biko?

Thanks!

[HamdenRice]

48. I died naturally.

Not in exile.

No.

NB: from the OP -- in my own country almost everyone know who I am. Outside my country few do.

[myrna minx]

50. Were you an anti-apartheid political activist?

Are you Robert Sobukwe?

[HamdenRice]

51. Technically not anti-apartheid

because apartheid was only introduced in 1948.

No, not Sobukwe.

[myrna minx]

56. Thanks for the clue.

Are you John Tengo Jabavu? He predates apartheid.

[BrotherBuzz]

33. Have you ever judged a barbeque cook-off?

Chili contest, too?

[HamdenRice]

41. No.

[Orrex]

35. Do you frequently perform nude in public?

No? Then what about this semi-famous figure you're describing?

[DarkTirade]

37. Are you a large block of muenster? Or perhaps cheddar?

[Tikki]

38. Are you Bobcat Goldthwait, Nikki Cox or Jay Mohr....

?

In keeping with Mr. Scorpios' threesomes.

Tikki

[Gormy Cuss]

39. I'm going out on a limb here..

You're HamdenRice's semi-famous ancestor.

[HamdenRice]

42. No not a hamdenrice ancestor

My ancestors were slaves, one whore and coolie laborers. Not a famous one among them.

[snailly]

40. I bet you really are someone famous

and you're trying to throw everyone off with this little game.

George Clooney is that you?



Just being silly. I have no idea of whom to even guess at. More hints please.

[HamdenRice]

43. big hint

I've been dead for a long time, but I died in the 20th century.

[madinmaryland]

44. Nice post, Hitler!

Well, I guess he is dead, though!

[Tikki]

54. Gypsy Rose Lee or Mae West.....n/t
