• I've wanted glasses all my life, and for a long time I was the only one in my family without eye problems.

• At least one musical group I enjoy is guaranteed to piss you off enormously

• I can bend my fingers back incredibly far

• I can fart in my eye socket

• I can fold my hands up into the shape of a dog in less than a second, whilst most everyone I know requires at least 5-10 seconds

• I spend an average of 7-8 hours a day online on weekdays, and 12-14 on weekends

• I used to get the most painful migraine headaches imaginable daily for a period of 6 months. I took medicine for it, but the pills made me gain 30 pounds in 3 months

• The first music video I'd ever seen was Cake - The Distance

• I don't know the words to most of my favorite songs, usually, I know the emotion.

• I absolutely love Pop Up Video, this is how I discovered Weezer.

• I can tolerate any music but Jewel.

• Of all the people I seem to know, I only have 16 people on my buddy list.

• If you tell me to download a song, I will download it, play it but ignore it. If I express straightforwardly a desire to dig your kind of music and you give me a suggestion, I will check it out. This has held true since I was 7.

• I have a lucky headband which won 9 of 10 basketball games in eighth grade, so much that Luke, who was taller than me, more athletic than me and was on a better basketball team than me, borrowed it on a day I wasn't playing.

• I could live off Corned Beef Hash and Colby-Jack cheese

• I think that Living Mannequins are so very cool.

• I have a shirt from every concert I've been to (except for when I saw Weird Al in 1997).

• You will find very few similarities between 97-98 me and 98-99 me, from musical tastes to hair color to interests.

• Wickey once brought down a wall in my deck.

• I love chicago from all its angles, whether looking straight up while getting off the subway or flying into it after a weeklong trip from hell at 9 at night when the whole thing is lit up and you realize that it looks just like the flight simulators make it out to be.

• I have something to hate about every vacation I've been on, except for any vacation to St. Louis.

• I am the successor to the biggest St. Louis Cardinals fan in Chicago.
