Fun stuff, guys.

Annie: You don’t comment too much; they’re always enjoyable! I think I remember #11 happening now.

Chessloser: Yep, you aren’t the only one.

Kevin: I’m glad to hear someone else was scared of Mr. Glitch, ’cause that was pretty embarrassing.

1. Yes, and I lost count when it got somewhere over a hundred. I never bit lollypops, so I couldn’t ‘cheat’ like that cheezy owl did…
2. Not ‘kick me’, but I remember distinctly getting some other kind of sign taped on me. Don’t remember what it said, although it was so obvious I took it off quickly.
3. I thought ‘Grimace’ was a name for the longest. When I found out it was a scowl I wasn’t really surprised…the purple guy always seemed sorta sad to me.
4. Yep, after I made a few bricks I got bored and tried to dig out a fort. It would always cave in.
5. Hardly ever – my parents would try to make me eat with ‘One more bite for ‘. It usually worked, strangely.
6. Very much so…I had nightmares about that guy.
7. No, and I probably wouldn’t have believed it. Read too many books.
8. Oh yes. I always wanted Gizmoduck to blow more stuff up though…
9. Sadly, yes. I used to like Full House too. Don’t ask me why, because I don’t know.
10. Well, then, I probably didn’t. I was mostly a goody-two-shoes.
11. Nope, but I ripped my face up real good sliding off a skateboard from my stomach, and broke my wrist twice – once jumping/sliding off a wet power transformer, once failing to balance on a soccer ball. I had a knack for getting injured in embarrasing fashion.
12. No, I’m sure I knew some aspiring drug pushers but they all hid it pretty well.
13. Yep, but I couldn’t have pictured it. Are we ‘old’ yet? That definition keeps changing as I age.

I know I comment too much. But lists are too hard to resist.
1) I could never get how many licks. I cut my tongue on Lick #53 and bit the rest off.
2) Yes. My cousin Allen. He also made rubber band guns using a clothespin as the trigger. I’m still afraid of balloons and rubber bands to this day.
3) YES! I never got it. HE WAS SMILING ALL THE TIME!
4) I’m from Texas. What’s an igloo?
5) ALL THE TIME. I still didn’t eat. Now I eat too much.
6) I had an overall irrational fear of math.
7) Huh? I probably would have believed it.
“Life is like a hurricane here in Duckburg…” I loved that show. But Punky Brewster was the best.
9) I got tired of watching people get hit in the groin. Plus Bob Saget’s “animal” voice is really grating.
10) Ok. What? WHAT?
11) No but I did have part of my knee ripped off while going for a layup in Joe Huang’s driveway after colliding with you
12) No. haha. No. That’s funny and kind of scary.
13) Yeah but I thought I would look lots different. I’m pretty much living my life the way I thought I would though.
