and like 50 people are going to see it. stuff about me:

24, life consists of working (engineering), exercise (powerlifting but im not going to be a jackass and make it how much i bench), and wasting time on the internet. no friends or gf.

i play basketball and paintball once in a while...but people know that.
havent done anything like a fun vacation since i was a kid.


that's about it
 
I too hate these questions, so I always make something up.

Last time, I said that in the late 80s, I was a stand-in drummer for Whitesnake on a european tour, when their drummer was injured.

That was 5 years ago, and despite never again saying it, there are still people here who believe it.

But, but, but... I DID play the tuba in elementary/high school. And I use that as my secret fact in these type of work things.

I'm a girl, so maybe that makes it more interesting??

played cello, but i'm trying to seem like less of a dork

thanks for the advice everyone...i might just go with "there is nothing remotely interesting about me"
 
just think of something from childhood that was a "big deal" or something.

if they asked me that question, i'd tell them how on my 4th birthday i was hit by a car and dragged 100ft under the car by my head, broke my femur, and met nancy reagan when i was in the hospital.

funny thing about the nancy reagan story is that all the kids went to a room where she was and she went around talking to everyone, but i didn't want to go to the room so i didn't, and she knew there was 1 kid who wouldn't go, so she personally came to my room.

my mom showed me the newspaper article about this that she has in my baby book a few months ago heh.
 
You once sacrificed a live chicken in a voodoo ritual to summon the demon lord, Nas'monoth, to this plane of existence.

"I play the cello" >>>>>>>>>>>>>> "I'm too overwhelmingly boring and uncreative to answer this question"
 
lol @ yoyo ownage!

Tell them you squat often and not just to the toilet.

I remember we had to do this when I started at my last company. A bunch of graduates. I said something about my weightlifting, another dude said he spins on his head often (bboy), just say whatever.

They said interesting, which ruins it. I usually write something like "I'm thirsty right now" which usually gets good responses.
