Boredom OR amusement: the first and probably only thread

The Rules:

This is a quiz thread.  But it's not a normal quiz thread.  Each question has two possible answers and it is up to you to decide which you agree with.  If you want to be interesting, explain your choice.  If you want to be boring ... well you could just say one or the other, but it'd be even more boring to not answer at all.

I will not respond to your answers unless I find them interesting and I'm in the mood to do so.  Because otherwise it would be boring for me.  And that is anathema to this thread.

Spam is tasty and we want MOAR.  Go ahead and respond to other people's answers if you want.  You can even claim my authority as threadrunner but you'll have to make your own anti-boredom thread.  Our slogan would be "The Battle Against Boredom" but Baingil stole that phrase from me so now I've got nothing.

1. Peanut butter OR jelly?
2. Nav OR Narv?

Our slogan would be "The Battle Against Boredom" but Baingil stole that phrase from me so now I've got nothing.  Mwahahaha! Big smile  Finders, keepers.

1. Peanut butter OR jelly?  Peanut butter.  I don't have anything against jelly, but I like nuts.  Maybe because I am one?  LOL
2. Nav OR Narv?  Narv.  I don't know any Navs.  I don't know any Narvs, either, but I've read some posts by one, and about some of his pranks... gives me ideas...
3. Imladris OR Rivendell?  Rivendell.  "Imladris" may be Elvish, but "Rivendell" actually puts a picture in my head... plus, I read "The Hobbit" first.
4. Lore OR role-play?  Role-play.  I tried Lore, completely embarrassed myself a few times, and decided to leave it to the experts.
5. Cowboys OR Redskins?  Are you talking about the football teams?  I don't know anything about football.  The historical cowboys vs. Indians (or Native Americans, which is more semantically correct)?  The Indians.  I like to defend the underdog.  Plus, they were the rightful landowners. 
6. Avatar: The Last Airbender OR James Cameron's Avatar?  I haven't watched either, so I wouldn't know.
7. Frodo OR Sam?  Do I have to choose?  *sigh*  All right - I choose Sam.  Anyone loyal and brave enough to fight giant spiders and walk into towers full of orcs for their friend has my vote.
8. Legolas OR Gimli?  Legolas. Big smile  Elves rule.
9. Lord of the Rings OR Harry Potter?  Lord of the Rings, definitely.  Why should I take anything less than the best?
10. Puns OR sarcasm?  It depends on the person and the situation.  I usually use sarcasm, but I like puns whenever I can get good ones.
11. Summer OR winter?  Winter.  Summer = bugs, heat, sunburn, and lawn-mowing.
12. Roller coasters OR merry-go-rounds?  Merry-go-rounds.  I don't like feeling like I'm falling.  Roller coasters do that to me, though I don't find them as scary as I used to.
13. Airplane OR aeroplane?  "Aeroplane" sounds cooler, but for everyday use, I'd go with "airplane".  Or just "plane".  Fewer syllables.
14. Jazz OR rock?  Neither.  I like classical or CCM.
15. Newspapers OR television?  Neither.  I don't like news... but if I have to choose one or the other, I'd go with television.
16. Football OR soccer?  Sports.  Ugh.  If I can't play (and I happen to be awful at both), it's no fun to watch.  I'd choose soccer over football, though.
17. Lightsabers OR blasters?  Lightsabers are more closely related to swords, and therefore cooler.
18. Hobbits OR halflings?  It depends on the tone.  In poetry, I might talk about "halflings".  In everyday life, I would use the word, "hobbits".
19. Merriam-Webster's OR the Oxford English Dictionary?  Which one is free?  I'll take that one.
20. Halfir OR halfir?  I hear he prefers to be called halfir.  I like to call people by the names they prefer to be called.

1. Peanut butter OR jelly?  Peanut butter, of course.  I can't imagine that a grilled jelly sandwich would be very good.  Plus there's chocolate peanut butter.  Jelly is, I'm afraid, the ugly sorority girl that all the other ones tell their guy friends is cute, but none of them agree.
2. Nav OR Narv?  This depends upon the situation.  In most things that I associate with, Nav, hands down.  In matters of humor, I have to concede to Narv.
3. Imladris OR Rivendell?  Imladris.  I have a thing for the more elegant names, that's why I say "palantiri" and "silmarilli" instead of palantirs and silmarils (the former not being used by Tolkien to my knowledge, the latter indeed being used by Tolkien, though he also used "silmarilli")
4. Lore OR role-play?  Lore, most obviously.  Everything started with lore.
5. Cowboys OR Redskins?  Red wings.  Football is crude and unsophisticated.
6. Avatar: The Last Airbender OR James Cameron's Avatar?  Impossible to tell, as I've no experience with the Last Airbender.  However, on the basis that I have seen James Cameron's Avatar, and quite enjoyed it, I have no qualms saying it's better than something I've never seen.
7. Frodo OR Sam?  Merry.  Frodo becomes a bit spineless towards the end, and Sam ... well, always seemed a bit spineless towards the beginning, overly servile for my tastes.
8. Legolas OR Gimli? Excuse me?  You're making me choose between a narcissist and an ankle-biter?  
9. Lord of the Rings OR Harry Potter?  Never read HP.  Been told I'd like it, but haven't gotten around to it.  Though, for various reasons and things I've heard, I'm left with a negative impression and thus would put LotR above HP.
10. Puns OR sarcasm?  Depends on the situation, I enjoy bad nerdy puns, although a good application of sarcasm is great too.  Online, I suppose I'd opt for puns, since sarcasm is too easily misinterpreted.
11. Summer OR winter?  Summer.  Winter just turns everyone around me into crappy drivers.
12. Roller coasters OR merry-go-rounds?  Neither.  Roller coasters have historically not been my thing, and merry-go-rounds are, quite frankly, boring.
13. Airplane OR aeroplane?  Airplane.  Like the movie.
14. Jazz OR rock?  Rock.  Jazz has it's place, but several variants of the Rock family of music are what I like.
15. Newspapers OR television?  Uh ... I use each for two rather distinct purposes.  TV is for entertainment, newspaper is for, well, news ... 
16. Football OR soccer?  See above - not a fan of football.  Soccer, however, is quite fun to play.
17. Lightsabers OR blasters?  Lightsabers - again with the elegance factor, just can't beat it.
18. Hobbits OR halflings?  Hoppits, of course.  Though of these two, Halflings.  See again my explanation about Imladris/Rivendell.
19. Merriam-Webster's OR the Oxford English Dictionary?  I have no preference.  Though out of fear of smiting by halfir I should probably say "OED".
20. Halfir OR halfir?  halfir.  Capitalizing his name would be on a similar level as claiming the sky to be green, or that Suzy would be permitted into G.R.O.S.S.

1. Peanut butter OR jelly? Well, peanut butter has some nutritional value to it, and it's really yummy, but jam is just so good on a bagel with cream cheese...wait, no. You said jelly. Then definitely peanut butter.
2. Nav OR Narv? Nav is slightly easier to type quickly, so Nav.
3. Imladris OR Rivendell? Imladris - during my youngest days, I saw someone say they were an "Immy girl" and that's just more appealing to me than "Rivvy girl."
4. Lore OR role-play? Role-play - I tried the lore thing, but found myself way over my head.
5. Cowboys OR Redskins? Flip a coin, get Cowboys, we're good. Footy (Australian rules football) is the only sport I can stand to watch.
6. Avatar: The Last Airbender OR James Cameron's Avatar? James Cameron's Avatar - the whole "alien princess fakes a war so as to kill off her fiance so she can marry the alien faker" plot was way more oringinal than I'd anticipated.
7. Frodo OR Sam? Frodo - I like jewelry.
8. Legolas OR Gimli? Legolas - I've never liked facial hair.
9. Lord of the Rings OR Harry Potter? Weeeeell...Harry Potter, but only the Maurader's Era bits. Most of HP is about equal to LotR.
10. Puns OR sarcasm? [sarcasm>Puns.[/sarcasm>
11. Summer OR winter? Summer - I like to see the sun, and during Alaskan winters, I don't. Ever.
12. Roller coasters OR merry-go-rounds? Roller coasters. I have a bad habit of falling off merry-go-rounds.
13. Airplane OR aeroplane? Airplane, unless you're talking about the Relient K song Jefferson Aeroplane.
14. Jazz OR rock? But...but I don't really like either! Rock, I guess...
15. Newspapers OR television? Television moves. It makes me fell happy. Newspapers give me a headache.
16. Football OR soccer? Football, but only if it's Aussie rules.
17. Lightsabers OR blasters? Shiny sticks ftw.
18. Hobbits OR halflings? Halflings gives me a bigger superiority complex. ^.^
19. Merriam-Webster's OR the Oxford English Dictionary? Which one's bigger so I can chuck it at someone?
20. Halfir OR halfir? halfir, silly!

3. Imladris OR Rivendell? Rivendell, it sounds prettier.
4. Lore OR role-play? Role-Play, hands down. 
5. Cowboys OR Redskins? I only realized what you asked here by reading the previous answers, us silly Europeans don`t know anything about football, so I can`t answer this. 
6. Avatar: The Last Airbender OR James Cameron's Avatar? Avatar: The Last Airbender, the TV series! It`s one of the best series around and I`m VERY much looking forward to the next season. When it comes to movies I`m going to have to go with James Cameron`s Avatar though, making a movie out of a brilliant cartoon never works out (anyone remember the Dragonbal Z movie? *shudders*).
7. Frodo OR Sam? Sam, Frodo annoys me a lot in the movies with his whining. 
8. Legolas OR Gimli? Legolas, he`s hot *grins*.
9. Lord of the Rings OR Harry Potter? Bit inappropriate to give this answer on a LoTR forum, but Harry Potter.

1. Peanut butter OR jelly? Peanut butter.. with a side of chocolate for good measure.
2. Nav OR Narv? I can’t say that either inspires me much
3. Imladris OR Rivendell? Imladris, just because I like the way it sounds
4. Lore OR role-play? Of the two I guess I would say role-play.
5. Cowboys OR Redskins? Ick… Dallas Stars! Hockey is the only sport worth watching. Even if I deemed football to be a sport I could not support my home town team because I think their owner is evil.
6. Avatar: The Last Airbender OR James Cameron's Avatar? Well I’ve only seen James Cameron's Avatar, it was interesting for a one time watch, but I didn’t like the overuse of bad language.
7. Frodo OR Sam? Sam! The perfect male… honest, loyal, trustworthy and he carries his own cooking equipment!
8. Legolas OR Gimli? Legolas…duh.

10. Puns OR sarcasm? Sarcasm, comes more naturally to me.
11. Summer OR winter? Summer. I hate having cold feet.
12. Roller coasters OR merry-go-rounds? I liked roller coasters when I was younger more, but I could not ride one now with my back problem.

14. Jazz OR rock? Blah, neither. Though if I’m put in a really melodramatic mood I will get out my one Metallica cd and listen to the ‘unforgiven 2’ a few times. (left over from my teenage years)
15. Newspapers OR television? Television. The only thing worth looking at in a newspaper is hockey news.
16. Football OR soccer? Blah to both.
17. Lightsabers OR blasters? Lightsabers of course, blasters are so uncivilized

1. Peanut butter OR jelly? Peanut butter.
2. Nav OR Narv? Nav. 'Cause he's awesome.
3. Imladris OR Rivendell? Imladris. It sounds cooler and more sophisticated.
4. Lore OR role-play? Lore.
5. Cowboys OR Redskins? Neither. Don't really care.
6. Avatar: The Last Airbender OR James Cameron's Avatar? Airbender. Never having seen Airbender, I know that Avatar sucked major along with like all other Cameron films, including Titanic, and I honestly don't know if too many movies can be worse than Avatar.
7. Frodo OR Sam? Sam.
8. Legolas OR Gimli? Gimli
9. Lord of the Rings OR Harry Potter? LotR. Having read both.
10. Puns OR sarcasm? Definitely sarcasm.
11. Summer OR winter? Winter. You can always keep adding clothes to keep warm, but there comes a point when you can't take anymore off to keep cool. And that is a fact of life.
12. Roller coasters OR merry-go-rounds? Neither
13. Airplane OR aeroplane? Being from the West side of the pond, Airplane. Additionally, since those who are credited with the first Airplane are indeed American, Airplane is my answer 'cause that's what the Wright Bros.
14. Jazz OR rock? Rock.
15. Newspapers OR television? I wish I felt more compelled to read the newspaper.
16. Football OR soccer? Football. 'Cause it's actually played with the feet. By this I mean that soccer should be called football, and American football needs to get a new name.
17. Lightsabers OR blasters? Lightsabers, duh. Is there a question about this?
18. Hobbits OR halflings? Hobbits
19. Merriam-Webster's OR the Oxford English Dictionary? Webster. He created the first dictionary of the modern age and standardized the English language.
20. Halfir OR halfir? halfir. No explanation needed.

Absolutely dumb and pointless and uninteresting and non-educational and uninspiring film about I don't even know what. Bleh. It's like the film version of Old Man and the Sea. Completely over-rated and good for only one thing: to use as combustible material to keep people warm.

Ah. A reference to hands-down the best comic strip ever.
