Bonus item #0: I believe that rules are often to be taken with a grain of salt.
- Paris Hilton cut me off in line for the portapotties once, with Lindsay Lohan in tow. They were both very giggly.
- I once made a milkshake for Neil Young.
- I can't stand bananas, but I love fried unripe plantains.
- My right wrist joint is extremely loose. It can totally creep people out when properly demonstrated.
- I have a "dead pixel" in one eye, though most of the time I don't notice it. (It tends to show up on bright sunny days.) I've had it since at least high school.
- I sometimes invent recipes. (My latest work-in-progress is sesame soft pretzels.)
- A family friend used to call me the "Five Thousand Year Old Man" — after the similarly-named Mel Brooks character — when I was little (like when I was 5 or so) because I always seemed so serious.
- The "brain in a vat" thought experiment has stayed with me ever since I first heard about it. It is more-or-less the basis for my personal philosophy.
- I have an overdeveloped sense of empathy. (I feel your pain.)
- [REDACTED]
