Flex your fiction muscles
"If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, (even if we don't speak often) please post a comment with a COMPLETELY MADE UP AND FICTIONAL memory of you and me. It can be anything you want - good or bad - BUT IT HAS TO BE FAKE.
When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people DON'T ACTUALLY remember about you."
Okay, for examples, here's my story to crazy_z:
"Do you remember that time that you and I got that mission to save the government? Something about a confidence vote. It started with those creepy emails we were both getting, and I was totally confused about what was going on, but then we were kidnapped and it was explained to us... Remember that? It was like, "Save your government! One of you, please, make a cheese sandwich! Please! Do it for your country!" and we were both like "Sure, okay" and he was like "it strictly has to be done by November 15" and we were like "yeah yeah okay fine got it" and then we were whisked away back to our respective homes? Oh yeah and he warned us about run-on sentences? And asking too many questions? And then I was like "pfft, cheese sandwich" and I guess you were like "pfft, cheese sandwich" too because the goverment lost the vote of non-confidence a couple days ago.
Now I'm hungry for a cheese sandwich."
