Welcome to the 2020 edition of ASK MrScorpio

For the first time in many long years I’m bringing back one of my signature games.

Ask MrScorpio is not a trivia game, it’s more like an advice column. So please, no guessing games, because this isn’t a challenge to my knowledge about anything.

If you decide to go the quiz show route, I guarantee that you’ll be disappointed. I’m not a walking encyclopedia.

Just ask me a question and I’ll do my best to answer it. If you have a problem, I’ll do my best to help out.

I’ve been out all day and I’m about to hit the sack. So please post your questions and I will get to each and every one of them once I wake up and sign back on.

Just to let you know, garbage in, garbage out. My responses will be tailored to your individual questions, all in the spirt of fun. Since this is all in good fun, that’s just the spirit I’m trying to relay.

So, hit me up with whatever you got and I’ll get back to you on the other side.

Let’s have some fun. See you later.

I will find out in week or so but I’m personally tired of him dead /then undead all the time especially the last season

Oh wait I see it was suppose to be an advice column . Sorry
OK asking
What advice do you have to break my addiction to this soap opera?
I have never watched one before and now as stupid as it is, I can’t quit it and want to know what’s next and no one except my teen even knows I’m watching something like that and it appears it may never end
I started watching before covid so I can’t blame it on that....
Signed ,
Embarrassed yet delighted to be sucked in for some reason fan

There were five other ones.

Joe will make six.

14. Well, I have certain rules for them:

1. I never make the first move. If they approach me, so be it. It is what it is.

2. Ignore and block.

3. If when I'm sometimes feeling particularly naughty, I make their lives a living hell and make them regret ever bothering me. (I have a certain technique for this. If you want to know what that is, hit me up.)

I have no pressing questions at present, but I'm sure I could come up with a few later.

I've read many of your posts, and you strike me as a man of considerable experience and wisdom.

I'll look forward to checking in with you down the road.
