[QUOTE=WhatHappenedNext?] Very true! TND has one preferred coffee cup at home, and uses it exclusively. [/QUOTE] False; I don’t even drink coffee at home. ☹ TND has at least one currently active magazine subscription. ---

True: _Newsweek, Naval History, White House History_, and _Scouting_. The next Doper has visited the White House, and stole nothing. ---

[QUOTE=Elendil’s Heir] The next Doper has visited the White House, and stole nothing. [/QUOTE] True. I grew up in the D.C. 'burbs - been there at least three times. The next Doper has over $100 cash (or its equivalent in local currency) on his or her person. ---

Seeing as I am sitting at the computer in a pair of boxers, that would be False. TND has a holiday tradition, not passed down from family, that they have followed for over 20 years. ---

False. Every Christmas tradition we have either was passed down from my wife’s or my family, or else has been observed for less than 20 years. The next Doper has never dressed up as Santa Claus. ---

[QUOTE=Shagnasty] TND has found themselves feeling guilty about racist thoughts that were condemned in others. [/QUOTE] True. Hell, true here on the SDMB on a pretty much monthly basis. TND claims some significant amount of Native American ancestry. ---

[QUOTE=OneCentStamp] TND claims some significant amount of Native American ancestry. [/QUOTE] False. None that I know of, and I’d be surprised if there were any, as none of my ancestors came to the USA before about 1850 or so. TND regularly watches _The Daily Show_ and/or _The Colbert Report_. ---

False. =Shudder= The next Doper believes that “The Star-Spangled Banner” shouldn’t be the U.S. national anthem, as it’s too hard to sing. ---

[QUOTE=Elendil’s Heir] False. =Shudder= The next Doper believes that “The Star-Spangled Banner” shouldn’t be the U.S. national anthem, as it’s too hard to sing. [/QUOTE] That’s absolutely correct. It should be “We Will Rock You.” The next poster has grown completely bored with _Lost_. ---

[QUOTE=Diogenes the Cynic] The next poster has grown completely bored with _Lost_. [/QUOTE] This poster has actually never watched it, but he even gets bored by the _commercials_ for _Lost_, so you can imagine. 😃 The next Doper has had an appendectomy. ---
