Coffee, Lunch or Dinner?

[Replies: 14]
So you find yourself free for lunch, dinner or just coffee today. What character from The Wire would you invite out for a bite or coffee and what would you ask them?

For coffee, I'd pick Omar. We'd get high in the early morning from coffee and talk about the smart moves to make in the game and I'd try to convince him to get out of the game for good.

Lunch, Kima. I think she's sexyand I would enjoy flirting with her and I would also enjoy the challenge of trying to bed down a lesbian.

Dinner, Nerese Campbell and I do mean I'd have her for dinner. ;). I'd know a money hungry power hungry back stabbing woman like that would never pass up a free meal and a bottle of expensive wine. Later she could show me some of that passive aggression she harbors as payment for the dinner, I'd even throw in a fifty dollar bill.

Coffee..what it would be Omar with Honey Nut Cheerios n errthang but if he was on the job then it would be Randy, Dukie, Mike, and Bubs...that conversation would be intense...and I would have to make that turkey bacon special for the occasion

Lunch It would be Lester, Sydnor, Bunny, Carver, McNulty and some others..for that Cheesteak special Dammit for a job well done

Dinner who else..Stringa, Avon, Chris, Slim...I would cook steak and they momma's biscuits..with crab cakes on the side..Dayum I would sleep great that night..

Coffee - Marlo - I know he wouldn't say much that's why I picked to have coffee with him and not lunch. Marlo, how does a young person like yourself make it to the top of the game?
Lunch - Bubbles - What's your advice for these young kids on the streets? By the way - lunch is on me Bubbs!
Dinner - Officer McNulty - I don't have a question - I just want to make him my dessert! He can search me all he wants. Oh, and bring the handcuffs! lol

coffee ....I would like to talk to VINSON....to find out more about him....and his past.

Lunch ...I would like to talk to KENARD...i may need one of those hannibal lector mask..nonetheless KENARD

DINNER....MARLO...just because. he probably won't say much but who cares.

I chose those three because they represent the different phases of a sociopath

Ima have too take your format Mkalvinandhobbe..

For Coffee, I'd invite Stringer Bell to starbucks and ask him did he really think he was gonna live after all his sneakyness,and also give him props on tryin a different approach with the co-op "no violence,just makin money".

For Lunch,I'd take Avon to wherever as long as he could answer these three qusetions for me.
1.How hard was it for you to give up your childhood friend to keep your respect in a city where you don't run nothin?
2.Were you thinking about D'Angelo when you made your final choice?
3.What are you gonna do when you get out?

And for Dinner,I'd take Omar. I'd ask him where the hell was he livin at for those years when he was on "the hunt"?, what happened to Donte'? why didnt you wait until your leg was a liitle better to finish "the hunt"? and what happened to you in your life to make you want to rob drug dealers for a living?

Anyway there's alot of people on The Wire i would like to talk too,but those are the main one's who I'd start with first.
Well those are just my thoughts, Peace.

For Coffee, I'd visit with Bunk and let him know that in MY Season 6 he is the new Homicide Sergeant since poor Jay died of a heart attack since all he did was stuff his face. I would also tell him to quit drinking like McNulty. Bunk is the man!! Good Police

For Lunch, I'd hang out with Stringer Bell... I would ask him why he let all those thieving polititians and construction people bleed him dry and make him loose focus of his real enemy- Avon. I hated when String got lit up but he took it like a soldier. I would tell him that he was missed after his untimely death, what a great character he was.

For Dinner, it would be Omar and I talking over a nice steak dinner... Why the hell did you let your guard down? How could a munchkin take out one of the greatest "villians" on television? If you would have noticed Kenard walking toward you with his gun out, would you have taken out a child or excepted your fate that day? I would let him know that his character was one of the best ever and thank him for his work. Finally I would ask him how it felt to play a Police Officer in "We Own The Night"?

A saaalute' to three of the best characters ever in television- Cheers!!

My lunch with Stringer and/or Avon would be too X-Rated to mention here so i won't do it. hahahaha - just know that it wouldn't be able to air on HBO :) - But uh... just a lunch date to talk, I'd probably want to talk to Chris and maybe even Mike, to see what's going on in their heads, Chris is so interesting to me, i just want to know what all he has been through you know... and Mike I would probably want to know what's going on with him, and try to mentor him or at least point him in a positive direction, (Hate to see a good mind go to waste)....

Ms. Donnelly would be a fun lunch partner, and she probably has some good war stories from the middle school. Not a popular pick, but the old gal can no doubt carry on a conversation.

Bodie- I kno you is Bmore but damn why you aint listen to Poot? you gotta listen sometime.

Omar- If you knew you would get got by a youngin cause you was emotional would you have had more control over your emotions?

Snoop - Would you have had more respect for Mike now? would you think more then to do what you're told?

Chris- If Kenard aint get Omar do you think you would have got Omar before he got you?

Avon- would you have tried harder to stay out the stereets when you got out the first time if you knew what you kno now?

Stringer- Think you can have everything your way after your experience? or would you be more felxible and realize there more then just your way?

Bubs- Would do it all again or do it different?

Mcnulty- What kinda green you smoke? I want some...

Daniels- Being a lawyer make you happier?

Cheese- You really think they cared what you had to say?

Slim Charles- What Business you got planned now?

Namond- Why it take you so long to realize you soft?

Randy- Miss your homies?

Dukie - Why? why follows your family's bad tradition?

Mike- I kno why but Still why Leave Bug and Dukie? Why not just get away?

Prop Joe- I know Cheese fam butWhy aint you listen to your head instead of your Heart?
