Mostly written earlier, before the delete/relete thing:
Right, memes. The internet ones. Most people think these are rubbish, I like them. I like answering quizzes (today I am apparently sexy instead of glamorous or gorgeous which makes me want to snarl a bit, I am also Tom Sawyer which is ok). I also like getting a snapshot of inside people's heads, I don't know most people whose blogs I read very well, so it's nice to know obscure stuff. Simple conversation doesn't usually involve banal facts, and I like banal facts.
I did one last week, 20 questions, which took me quite a lot of searching to find one that wasn't completely and utterly inane, "who would you most like to sit next to in maths?" and "who do you want to say something to" not being my kind of thing. I deleted it though, because I felt all silly and remembered all the scathing comments of old. And that's what I do, I regret what I say so often, it's cathartic to have a delete function.
Anyways. I'm copying this one from someone clever so it's ok.

good work on the list making. concise and certain. excellent bullet point flowers also.
and the brown background? are we happy with that now? or can we expect pink tomorrow? the brown is mature and sophisticated in an understated way. but maybe it needs to change daily. i'd like to see a disco theme.
how do you do that?
I'm scared of you now.
