As you can probably guess from the subject line up, I received the following via e-mail. It’s somewhat meme-ish, so I thought I’d post it up here, just in case my three loyal readers are feeling voyeuristic and want to know all about me. Plus, it has the added benefit of allowing me to throw up a quick, low-effort entry for y’all:
INSTRUCTIONS: Place an X by all the things you’ve done, or remove the x from the ones you have not, and send it to all of your friends (including me). [Ed. note: Obviously, those instructions are geared around e-mail, but I suppose by posting it here, I am essentially “sending it to all of my friends.]
In your entire life, have you ever:
(X) Smoked a cigarette
(X) Drank so much you threw up
( ) Crashed a friend’s car
