16 things: So, I got tagged to do this “16 things” thing or something. The general gist being to list things about yourself, oh yeah, and they’re supposed to be INTERESTING things. Well, at least I’ll try to make sure there’s 16 of them. 1. I love making lists of things. I thought this was normal behaviour until a friend pointed it out to me. You can bet his name went on a list. :-) 2. I don’t read newspapers, or news Websites. Or watch the news on TV. Ignorance is bliss I say. 3. I hated so-called Physical Education at school and pretended to forget my kit so I didn’t have to do it. One day I got bored of lying to the teachers about forgetting my kit and just told them I didn’t want to do it any more. From then on I was allowed to go to the library instead. This probably explains why I’m a lazy computer geek. 4. I am the youngest of 3 brothers and no sisters. 5. I think sarcasm is the highest form of wit. 6. I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die - no, that’s not right - I did go to Las Vegas though (twice). 7. I enjoy wearing hats - but find it hard to overcome my fear of hat hair. 8. I don’t do the Facebook - it’s shit. 9. Much to the amusement of my friends I used to buy music based only on the album cover design - I’ve yet to have success with this technique. 10. I’m a bit of a grammar pedant but also a rubbish typist and I sometimes randomly substitute words in sentences - luckily the Internet has an edit button. 11. I have a scar on my left hand in the shape of an exaggerated ‘Z’ - à la Zorro. Zorro didn’t make the scar. 12. I hate milk but tolerate small amounts on my cereal. The sight of milk on someone’s upper lip makes me want to projectile vomit. 13. If I could have one super power it would be the ability to see other people’s farts. I’m not sure how many lives I could save with such a power. 14. I’d rather go grey than bald, which is just as well… 15. The glass is half-full. 16. I have a tendency to build complex systems to do simple tasks so I can have them just so. This explains why I built my own music player and develop my own film etc. In theory I am supposed to tag 16 other people but I really can’t be bothered so if you feel like having a go yourself, feel free - if not, don’t. Simple as that.
