</div>

False. While I do love Statler & Waldorf, I’m a fan of Kermit the Frog ever since I was a tadpole watching him on the Today Show.  
The Next Poster has never experienced the heartbreak of psoriasis.

</div>

Fortunately true. Dry skin now and then, the occasional rash, but no psoriasis.

TNP has spoken to a famous actor.

</div>

False. I yelled at Danny Devito once in Vegas but alas, he didn’t hear me ☹ (or more likely, pretended to ignore me. Asshole). He is even shorter and rounder in real life than in the movies tho. At least he was 13 years ago when I saw him.

TNP has no idea who Danny Devito is.

</div>

Possibly true. I saw Ed Asner in the restroom of the Cleveland Play House when he was appearing in a production of _Born Yesterday_. As I recall, we nodded to each other, but no words were exchanged.

I have spoken to Jay Leno during/after a couple of his performances, but although he has acting credits, he’s certainly known primarily as a comic and talk show host.

The next poster has been to at least one of the Smithsonian museums.

Whoops, forgot to hit preview. To answer **Ambivalid** , false – I watched _Taxi_ regularly.

Same Smithsonian guess as before.

</div>

False. I have considered baking one from scratch on several occasions but in the end have always resorted to the Duncan Hines option.

TNP has never passed their hand slowly over a candle flame to show what a badass they are.
