a) I prefer Moose Drool Brown Ale.
b) Barry’s Tea is magic in a cup.
c) Loose-leaf green tea is the only way to go.
d) Who needs tea? I just reach out the window, grab a Foster’s-soaked wallaby, and wring it out into my mornin’ coffee.

3. What’s your favorite movie?
a) Anything with John Wayne. The Duke rocks my socks.
b) I’ve seen Once twenty times. I’m listening to the soundtrack right now.

e) I like to watch the scene from Return of the Jedi with the Sarlacc over and over and over again. Anyone who says the Sarlacc isn’t the best character in all of Star Wars deserves to be slowly digested by a Sarlacc.

Mostly Bs: Kelpies
Kelpies, mystical Irish water horses, are the right prey for you, you dreamer, you poet, you! Don’t forget your snorkel!

G’day mate, Australian Hoop Snakes are the slippery beasts you’re after. Unlike regular serpents, Hoop Snakes are the roly-poly, forked-tongued upright hula-hoops of the animal kingdom. And if you can’t catch a Hoop Snake, there are always loose Drop Bears lurking in the Outback.
Mostly Es: The Mongolian Death Worm
Nothing scares you. Why not quest after the elusive Mongolian Death Worm. This magical beastie tunnels through the Gobi Desert looking like a sausage and spewing acid. Sounds like a helluva good time, right?
