101 Facts About Me

There was a #100factsaboutme TT (or Trending Topic) on Twitter and I thought, most people online really aren't interesting enough for me to read even ONE fact about them, let alone 100. Truth be told, I'm not even that interesting, but there's something about being able to produce some facts about yourself, interesting or not, that kinda makes you feel good. If you look back over your life, you can actually discover that you're perhaps more interesting, and have more in common with a lot of people than you thought. And since trying to post all of this on Twitter would actually be annoying, I decided to do it here. So, in the words of the illustrious lyricist Mystikal: HERE I GO!
