Skinny Bones (Jamaica Plain, MA)

Skinny Bones

Greg (The Jellyfish Brothers) posed questions for Skinny Bones

Greg Alvarez: Would you put your sub-consciousness into a robot rather than let yourself die, why or why not?

Chris Stoppiello: This is great, this is exactly the kind of question I was hoping to get. I am the kind of person who would love that idea and sign on for it and do it…and then regret it immediately.

Jacob Rosati: I would do it if there were babe robots.  Babe bots.

CS: I would do it because it seems like a good idea to live forever but then I would regret it because there wouldn’t end up being any babe bots because we’d probably be asexual.

GA: Would you rather fly forever or swim forever?

JR: I think I would fly forever because I can breathe air and I can’t breathe water.

Allston Pudding: Oh no, no, I’m pretty sure you’d be able to breathe underwater if you chose the swimming option.

JR: I mean, yeah, okay, that makes sense. Can I also breathe air if I choose swimming? Would I never be able to surface?

AP: Sorry dude…that’s a follow-up question for The Jellyfish Brothers.

CS: I’m leaning towards swimming forever, mostly because flying forever implies that I would need to maintain a constant velocity and direction in order to maintain lift. Whereas with swimming, I feel like I could slow down. I could change direction easily, maybe explore a sunken ship. I think there’s a lot more room for exploration in the ocean.

GA: If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

CS: I hate that question, I get asked a lot, you know?
