Meme time!
Monday, October 1st, 2007 11:50 am1. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
2. Tag seven people to do the same.
3. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag whoever wants to do it.
1. I don't like red M&M's. This is purely psychological on my part because all M&M's taste the same. Doesn't matter though. I will eat the red M&M's last in the hopes that my chocolate craving will be satisfied before I'm down to only red M&M's. As a side note, I think the blue M&M's look like smurf turds and that creeps me out. Granted they replaced the light brown M&M's, which looked like hamster turds. It says something about me that I prefer to eat something that resembles hamster turds as opposed to smurf turds, though I'm not sure what.
2. I uncovered a dark family secret once by doing High School science assignment. (I've talked about this before on my LJ, which is why I won't go into great length here. If I get enough inquiries, I can go into it again or find the original post).
3. When I was five, I read a dictionary. Seriously.
4. When I was young, I always hated the "choose your own adventure" books because you couldn't read them straight through. I was stubborn and tried, but it didn't work. I never liked the fact that I might possibly be missing part of the plot. I would always try to see how the various choices ended. Once I'd found the "right" choice, I would flip through trying to see if I missed any of the endings. I was particularly peeved when I'd make a "logical" choice and wind up dead in some inane way. I still dislike those types of books.
5. I cross both of my pinkies and both of my toes when I really get into a book. It's comfortable for me. It has the added bonus of driving my mom crazy.
6. I am too liberal to be considered a Republican and too conservative to be considered a Democrat. Disorganization ticks me off (there got the Libertarian party) and incompetence pisses me off even more (good-bye most other Independent parties). This is one of the many reasons I don't discuss politics.
7. About four years ago, I interviewed (twice) and was offered a position at an on-line adult entertainment company. I turned down the job because they weren't paying enough. The best part of the process was signing a waiver acknowledging that I might see "material of a sexual nature" while at their offices and that I wasn't going to sue them for it. I was very disappointed that I didn't ever see anything that merited this waiver.
Tag. You're it.

Date: 10/1/07 10:28 pm (UTC)I am intrigued by #2.
Heh. My friend Miko swears that the blue ones taste different, and gross. I eat my m&m's by color... first I separate them by color. Then eat all the extra so there is the same amount of each color in my palm. Then I eat them one at a time, keeping the colors even as I go, until they are all gone. Then I get another handful. Assuming, if I'm sharing the bad, that there are any left by then.^^

Date: 10/2/07 01:14 am (UTC)Also, I want to say that I liked the Choose Your Own Adventure books when I was younger, except that I distinctly remember now being disappointed when I got a Hardy Boy's book that was one of those. I spent hours trying to map out all the different plotlines - I'm still not sure how the hell that one was supposed to end.
