    Default Post an interesting fact about yourself! 1 in 5!

    So with the influx of all the Kotaku newbies, I thought it'd be great to have a game so their more than just faces. So I made a one in ten game thread!

    THE RULES:
    • Post only once every five posts (DUH)
    • Write a fact about yourself based on the theme posted by the last member!
    • Write a theme for the next member to write a fact about.


    I'll start so everyone can see how the game is played. An interesting fact about me is that based on one time when I was sloppy drunk, some of my friends started calling me ke$ha.

    Next poster's theme is physical ability facts! Go go go!

    I couldn't snap until I was 17! When I finally got it down I was snapping all the time. In fact it was at a Hastings when I first got it down. I just kept walking around snapping! Got a few weird looks.

    Silly thing you believed as a child, GO!

    EDIT: I'm dumb

    I believed Dracula was from Pennsylvania <.<

    What did you want to be when you grew up?

    A lot of things. Marine biologist, then a lawyer, writer, journalist, musician. The latter is the only one I haven't grown out of though.

    Family related fact!

    You're a twin? There's two of you?!

    I so love mermaids but unicorns are it for me.

    I remember one time I was sleeping at my Nan & Grandad's and got woken up during the middle of the night as I felt my head getting warmer. It was actually their cat that had curled up above my head and was purring away loudly.

    I also used to run my feet back and forth under the quilt cover and he'd run along the top of it trying to catch my toes xD

    What's one thing you really like about yourself?

    I had an overweight turtle named Tanksy.

    While I was at school my Grandma would feed her 3-4 times a day (not including what I fed her), after about 5 months she was so fat that she couldn't retract into her own shell; and had actual turtle cankles...

    EDIT: Oh bummer! Ok ummm - I LOVE my sexy a** bod. Duh.


    The most embarassing thing that happened to you as a child. GO!

    Changed the rules to 1 in 5 posts because 1 in 10 was a bit too much . I had an uncle who would make fun of me for bringing my gameboy with me places when I was 5. I don't remember why I found it so traumatizing but I hated it!

    Next topic: Pet Peeves!

    It sends me into a blind rage when people don't use their turn signals. Or when people put pots and pans in the dishwasher.

    For me is the opening scene of FFVIII because I was young and it completely mesmerized me and got me hooked.

    Embarrassing story/event fact
