I give to you the shuffle meme (via Paula):

(There’s a real “off by one” thing going on here. Some of these would have been better answers to previous or next questions, like the “motto” question should’ve had the “Something’s Gotta Give” answer. And wouldn’t “Ring Song” go better with the “person you love” question? But oh well, the chips fall where they may. Why are my family and friends confused about my gender? I like the matchup on the wedding/present question/answer. And the “life story”. Of course, I do want to be one of the Challengers of the Unknown if I ever grow up. I do like my women falling from the sky. Oh yeah, and I’m definitely Alphaville. I’ve even seen the movie.)
(FYI, In case you don’t know, the title of this post is a nod to the Smith’s song “Stop Me If You Think That You’ve Heard This One Before”. There’s a cover of it that I heard twice in two days: Once in the season premiere of Nip/Tuck the other night, and the other time over the loudspeaker at the gym I work out in, the next night. I didn’t recognize the artist and had to look it up. Turns out it’s Mark Ronson, whom I’ve never heard of.)
Pet Peeve of the Day: Playing music over the loudspeaker at the gym. Seems odd, especially since 80% of the people are wearing headphones/earbuds and listening to MP3 players.
Poignant Search Term Of The Day That Led To This Blog: “i lost my prius smart key”.
Videogame(s) Played Since Last Blog Update: None!
