Awhile ago on facebook(ok, so it was a few years ago) there were these questions going around in notes. Before facebook they were passed around in e-mail (Remember: fill this out, send it to 10 people and the person who sent it to you, if you don't you will die and untimely death...). And before e-mail the questions came to you written down on paper, folded up nicely from your best friend. (Yes, people actually wrote things on paper!)
So I got this one from a friend on facebook that I hadn't talked to since probably 1993, and this is how I responded to him:
Honestly I hate these things. But because this is the first time I have heard from you in a long time, why not. Maybe you'll talk to me now when I post on your wall.
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?
No, but my dad was the one who named me.
2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?
This morning at a story on the Today show. I am pregnant, give me a break.
3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?
It's ok. Who cares about that anyway?
4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT?
roast beef if I have to actually eat lunch meat.
5. DO YOU HAVE KIDS?
Two boys, Krischan 6, and Jakob 14 months, and a little girl on the way.
6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON, WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?
I thought opposites attract. So if you met someone exactly like you, wouldn't that be annoying? There wouldn't be any good conversation because you would always agree with each other. Never do anything new because you would be the same. Also, think about all the things you hate about yourself... Need I say more?
7. DO YOU USE SARCASM?
hmmmm.....

yes... and your point?

Pink is just a lighter shade of red. Duh. If you pick one, you pick the other.
16. WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF?
I wish I was more outgoing so I could meet more people. I wish I was just a bit smarter. I wish I wasn't wasting my time filling this out.
