Is This Introductory First Post Really Necessary?

Does anybody ever actually read it? Probably not. But some genius somewhere decided it was in the best interest of the whole damn world - or at least the miniscule minority who actually read this bullshit - to put down this law somewhere in the big book of blog that the first post must be introductory in nature.

So in the spirit of redundancy and nonsensical gibberish, I present… me. In a series of short unrelated questions randomly selected from memes everywhere. You should be proud.

  1. Four jobs I would stink at
    - Four Things Meme -

    • Air traffic controller
    • Nuclear physicist
    • Plumber
    • Santa Claus

    All for very obvious reasons.

  2. One song……. which reminds you of one of your holidays.
    - The Music Meme -
    It is nearing Christmas. The song on my playlist at the moment is Rudolph. So there ya go.
  3. Find the nearest book. Turn to page 123. Go to the fifth sentence on the page. Copy out the next three sentences and post to your blog. Name the book and the author, and tag three more folks.
    - The Book Meme -
    “Do you want me to kick you?” said Ford.
    “Would it give you a lot of pleasure?” said Zaphod, blearily.
    “No.”

    - The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy (The Ultimate Hitchhiker’s Guide Omnibus) by Douglas Adams -

    I shall refrain from tagging anyone because this is really all about ME.

  4. Now that you’ve slept with two different people in a row, you seem to be having an excellent day because you just came across a hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk. Holy shit, a hundred bucks! How are you gonna spend it?
    - The 27 Questions Meme -
    Erm… Hmm… Didn’t exactly sleep with anyone. All I did was read some disjointed conversation between Zaphod and Ford. Can’t exactly say that’s having sex with two people in a row. Besides, I don’t swing that way.

    Anyway, if I did find a hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk, I’m probably going to hire an assassin to kill the bugger who keeps thinking up these silly questions.

  5. Five things people don’t know about me
    - Five Things Meme -

    • I’m a trained lab-monkey paid in bananas
    • I cook
    • I hate ginger and other things pungent
    • I love rainy days, most of the time
    • I have a huge… ah… nevermind
  6. Do you bake Christmas cookies?
    - Christmas Meme -
    No. I don’t bake. Although I do wish that someone would bake me a large (HUGE) christmas cookie to munch on.

  7. Do you feel embarrassed to let your friends know about your blog or you just consider it as a private thing?
    - Truthful Meme -
    Considering that the reason for the blog’s existence is for family and friends to keep up with my busy life and that I’m a narcissist at heart, I’m really not shy about them reading it.
  8. When was the last time you had a banana?
    - The 10 Questions Meme -
    I’m a trained lab-monkey paid in bananas. What do you think? Look, since nothing I’m saying is actually registering in anyone’s mind, I’ll just stop this…

My, look at the time…
