You know how vampires are obsessive-compulsive? Like when Mulder throws sunflower seeds at the kid from The Sandlot and the kid has to stop and pick them up? I think I'm that way about memes. When they show up on my flist, I can't not do them. So if I'm self-absorbed, it's all because of you guys, right? Right.
Without further ado, the Twenty Facts meme, stolen most recently from
carrielh.
