25 and me: A Facebook Meme

The rules are as follows: once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with at least twenty-five random things, facts, or habits about you. Goals can count, too. At the end, choose twenty-five people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you.

To do this, go to “notes” under tabs on your profile page and paste these instructions in the body of the note. Type your twenty-five random things, tag twenty-five people (in the right hand corner of the application, and then click “post.”

Now, it’s time to get started…

1. I am not superstitious in anyway. The only reason I’m responding to this chain letter style note is because I like learning things about my friends. For good measure, I’m breaking the chain by ignoring the 25 taggie rule and tagging 13 friends. That’s right, 13. Three of whom I don’t even like.
2. I have a deep seeded hatred of lamas. Not a big fan of alpacas either. Camels? Take ‘em of leave ‘em.
3. My favorite author is Orson Scott Card.
4. I started reading comics when Superman “died” and still pick up an issue from time to time. I consider comics and graphic novels the most creative media on the market.
5. I identify myself as a skeptic, and I encourage you to doubt that.
6. Other than Lamas, I’m a big animal lover. I’ve always wanted to go on a safari…or own a cougar.
7. I have three blogs and six e-mail addresses, and if I haven’t already responded to your inquiry, I’m not going to.
8. On that note, I almost never check my voice mail. If you call me, I’ll call you back upon noticing your missed call. Recordings go straight to the Phantom Zone.
9. I often only care to see a movie once, but a good score I can listen to over and over. Reliving the movie in my mind is all I need. I am a connoisseur of fine soundtracks.
10. I see no value in Reality TV unless it is a game show.
11. I am the least competitive person I know. I really don’t care about beating you, and only about beating myself in very specific skills.
12. I have yet to meet a poker player I feel is as good or better than myself. However, I haven’t been looking as hard as I should.
13. Air hockey is my Achilles Heel. I would lose two out of three games to pretty much anyone…including myself.
14. I have stopped listening to radio on account that it sucks in Atlanta. Audiobooks and podcasts all the way.
15. For the first time, I didn’t want a white guy in office. (I wanted Richardson.)
16. I’m a summer.
18. I’ve all but quit video games and television. Just don’t find the time anymore. LOST is about the only show worth scheduling in. Honestly, I don’t like it. I gotta make more time for wasting.
19. I wrote three 100 page books as a child…for fun. In the past couple months I have reread some of my early work. Man, it sucks.
20. Seriously though, I hate lamas. If they all went extinct tomorrow, I would probably be sorry…only because I didn’t cause it.
21. I want to be a magician when I grow up.
22. Stereotypes don’t both me. They are in place because they are usually true, and anything usually true should be considered.
23. I use Google every day.
24. I have never taken any drugs (excluding alcohol) harder than NyQuil. This is due in part to a general adversity to pharmaceuticals, my distaste for smoke inhalation, and my inability to swallow pills. Gag reflex.
25. I can stop hiccuping and start crying on command.
