I had Fruity Pebbles for breakfast this morning. I’m 27.
I know every word to every Schoolhouse Rock song. I’m 27.
I think SpongeBob is more relevant to real life issues than cough The Bible.
And, the name of the guy who does Squidward’s voice is Roger Bumpass.
It has to be a stage name. Has to be. It’s just.too.funny!
I can be an unreasonably picky eater.
I seperate my food on the plate if I can.
I pick out olives or onions or celery if the pieces offend me.
I like white bread and ketchup on my sandwiches.
I buy Cap’n Crunch Pnut butter cereal, Frosted Flakes, Lucky Charms and Froot Loops for myself. Sometimes I put the cereal in ziplock baggies to eat dry.
I love crayons and coloring books.
I like animation.
I’m secretly quite egocentric. I appear a grown-up, caring woman, but the world actually revolves around me. I’m the center of the universe!
31 year-old male.
I like computer/video games, cartoons, Transformers toys, ridiculously aggressive music, and dancing around like a fool to the aforementioned music.
I like Hello Kitty.
I feel so ashamed.
Nuh-uh.** I** am.
I love children’s books. All, any, but especially Harry Potter, fantasy, E. Nesbit, you name it. I bought every Lemony Snicket for myself and recently instructed my 9-year-old that she could not lend one out to a friend “because they’re MINE.”
I still adore sugary cereals. Cap’n Crunch is a favorite.
My afternoon snack, whenever I can get one, is cookies & milk. Since I am the household cookie-buyer/maker, I get this quite often.
I own seven dollhouses, and when no one’s looking, I like to play with them. Ostensibly they’re for my two daughters, but the nicest one is in my bedroom and they can only touch it if they ask first. (It’s the big Playmobil Victorian, and it’s cool!)
I asked for the Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts castle for Christmas. For me. I am not sure if I will allow anyone else to help me put it together (probably, but it’ll be tough )
I am frequently tempted to buy stuffed animals, and can seldom pass one without patting its head and telling it very quietly, “It’s okay. Someone will buy you soon.”
It’s up for debate whether the kids get to see whatever the latest Harry Potter movie is (the 5-year-old, no way), but you can bet I’ll be there opening day, without any kids if necessary.
I like candy, and I eat it almost every day.
I like to go to the zoo, whether or not any kids are with me. I want to go just for MYSELF.
I am every bit as messy as my kids but try to hide it.
Okay, I think I’m done.
Mrs. Furthur
– Oh, and I still make myself chocolate milk to drink with the cookies. And if there’s only four or less cookies left in the package, I will take them all and eat them in the bathroom so I don’t have to share.
Some of these don’t apply. The average videogame player is supposedly around 29. I am one of them, at 34.
::dance of joy::
::bursts into uncontrollable tears::
I love Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Chitty Chitty Bang-Bang and all the Rankin-Bass Christmas specials.
Snoopy always makes me laugh (out loud) when I read Peanuts
I hate wearing shoes and socks, and I always have to be reminded to take a coat with me when it is cold outside.
Cream of Wheat with milk, sugar and butter along with some warm toast always makes me feel like I’m 4 years old again
I like to swing on the swingset to see if I can get high enough to go all the way over the top (one kid in my class did it once…really!!! ha)
And, ahem, Hello Kitty is a large influence in my life!! I sleep with my Hello Kitty pillow every night and right now I have my very own mini Christmas tree covered in all things Hello Kitty. And that, folks is just the tip of the Hello Kitty iceberg.
I am 39
I watch Megas XLR religiously. I’m also a big fan of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and The Powerpuff Girls.
I like to play “did too/did not” with my friends. My sister and I frequently annoy our friends with “MmmoooooOOOOmm, she’s TOUCHING me!!!”.
I’m 45
I have a Dr. Seuss tattoo (Cat in the Hat). And a Mad Hatter tattoo.
I love many Disney movies and love the parks.
I read plenty of children’s lit.
I watch Dexter’s Lab & the Powerpuff Girls.
The Nintendo franchise games (Mario, Zelda etc.) are some of my favorites.
Yes. His voyage will be continuing shortly, now that I have enough money to pay for postage.
It’s kind of exciting to know that **matt_mcl ** and I have touched the same monkey.
Now that I think of it, we should have had everyone take a picture of them spanking the monkey.
I play with trains, R/C cars and PS2.
I like Jimmy Nuetron (Nick) and Arthur (PBS).
Charlie Brown Chritmas rules.
Fruity or Cocoa Pebbles…CapNCrunch…
I collect Barbies. No, not the fancy ones that are actual collector’s items, but Barbie’s younger siblings (and Ken’s brother Tommy) and the dolls in the Happy Family line. I don’t play with them, but I do like to dress them.
I’m very sad that my dollhouse, which I’ve had since I made it in 8th grade, was lost in a recent basement flood. I want to get a new one, but at the moment content myself with a virtual doll house - The Sims 2.
On Friday I ordered a holiday movie from Amazon - The Veggietales: The Toy Who Saved Christmas. I don’t have kids, so this movie is for me. I liked it when it was on PAX a few years ago, and I’ve really wanted to see it again.
Speaking of Christmas, late on Christmas eve my brother and I like to go out into the driveway after our parents are sleeping and beat on each other with the empty tubes wrapping paper came on. Ice adds to the challenge of seeing who loses when their tube unravels first.
like Elenia28 I sleep with a stuffed animal. (but mine’s a lion)
I own a lot of children’s books. Not just YA ones like Harry Potter or The Giver, but picture books too. Most of the Harold and The Purple Crayon and Toot and Puddle books, for example.
Pushing 40 (and pushing hard)…
I devour Pixie Sticks, especially the 3-footers.
“Cookie” is a magic word.
I get cranky if I’m tired or hungry.
I watch cartoons, and plenty of 'em.
A very cool teddy bear presides over my living room. After a particularly rough day, he comes down off the speaker for squeezes while I watch TV.
I too, get overly excited when I find something cool and new. Sometimes I even clap my hands.
I often canter around the room, sometimes making horse-hoof noises with my hands (Monty Python style).
I lie down on the floor at work when it all gets too much for me.
I own a Mr Potato Head (bought in the last few years) and I love love love the smell of playdoh.
When driving around the countryside during spring, I madly point out the window and squeal “lambs” when we pass some by.
I have recently reread old favourites like The Talking Parcel and The Little White Horse.
Hmmmm…I’m turning 30 next year…I’m sure I can give it all up by then.
