Question of the Week #126 · 2:30am Oct 18th, 2023
Hello everyone and welcome back to the question of the week.
Again the Cyberpunk Equestria Nightmare Night Story Contest is still going on. It should be a fun contest and... There are prizes.
So go check it out.
Now let's go onto the spooky Halloween questions for this week.

So, let's say you are in a horror movie like scenario (for the sake of argument you don't know that you're in a horror movie, but of course you'll survive, cause your awesome and we all know it ) and you can bring two items with you.
Both must be small/light enough that they can be held in one hand... Er... Hoof. While one item must be practical while the second item must be goofy.
The horror movie scenario could be anything from being chased by a serial killer at a summer camp, running through a haunted house filled with ghosts, wandering the streets of a seaside village filled with crazy cultist, a ghost pony crawling out of your television, being chained up in a bathroom and playing a game with a sinister clown puppet, etc...
What items will you take? And why?
And that's the question(s) of the week.
Thank you all for coming by, the weather has been a little bit crazy so stay safe in the rainy, foggy or even nice weather you are having. Have a wonderful day.

Flashlight and kazoo. You think a serial killer is going to come after me when I’m playing ‘giggle at the ghosties’ on a kazoo? The vibes would be all wrong.
My hands are hidden behind my back. I turn on the fun item first: a cellphone with a loud and high-quality speaker playing Bizet's Carmen.
After my confused opponent gets close enough I politely give him the second item: A regulation issue M67 Fragmentation hand grenade with one second left on the fuze -- just enough time for them to recognize it.
After all, I know I'm going to survive just fine!
I keep the firing pin, though. There's a limit to my generosity.
Plastic chair, Huge stick.
I will sit on my throne with my sword in hand and the killer will bow like all inferiors do.
Maxwell. Specifically 'Voices of the Void' (awesome horror and job sim!) version of Maxwell the cat. I would love to chill with a music cat and that would do well with my sanity in any scenario.
If not a music one, at least a feisty cat.
... and that was the practical one.
The goofy one would be a slab of dripping meat. It was a western food delivery gone wrong gone right gone bussing it sussy style.
I would imagine anybody would be weary of approaching a cat and meat wielding dude in the middle of the night, silhouetted by the moonlight.
Here’s something that is on-topic.
The names and images for a “Boogeyman” from many countries around the world.

Just don’t confuse “Coco” from Uruguay with “Cuca” from Brazil or “El Coco” from Columbia!
