Ok, I’m not afraid of a little egotism… plus, I have to post in a thread that includes the words “bomb diggety”

I have great legs and beautiful eyes.
I volunteer every week.

I’m generally strong enough for anything I need to do (or, for that matter, anything other people need me to do).
I have an incredibly sexy chest (stems from No. 1).
I’m pretty much perfect height, and I don’t gain weight easily so I guess I’m a pretty good weight.

Unlucky 13 . . . I forgot what I was going to write. That makes me predictable, which is a Good Thing.
The Bad Thing is now I can’t think of any more. But really, 13 good things about me is a pretty good number (except for the obvious reason why it’s NOT)
Upon previewing:
“I make the best puns ever. (No, they’re good! I swear!)”

I’m an excellent listener.
People dear to my heart have told me I’ve large amounts of wisdom.
When I smile at someone, it’s a genuine smile–I refuse to when I don’t mean it.

When I lie, I try to do so with humorous quotes. (see Douglas Adams as Zaphod Beeblebrox above.)

Those are all that come to mind right now.
I have the most amazing brown eyes in the country.
I have decent style.
Even if you hate my style, I’m so comfortable with myself that I don’t give a damn what you think so, no, I’m not going to buy the latest fashion just to make you happy. When you buy my clothes, you can decide what I wear.
I have a nice car.
I can be really seductive when I want to be.
I have lots of friends. But they’re all guys because I have the amazing power of driving off women. (Because they’re all jealous of how incredibly fucking sexy I am. ([sub][sup]Okay, that’s probably not true, but I like to think it is.[/sub][/sup]))
I can smile and be friendly even when I’m having a really shitty day.
If I hate you, you know I hate you. I won’t drag your name through the mud just because you pissed me off. I won’t spread rumors to make any mutual friends we might have hate you or like you less than they like me. I’ll just hate you and leave it at that.
I’m cute.
I may not be able to stick both my legs behind my head, but I can fuck you until you cry like a little girl and beg me to stop.
