Pentax Optio E60 10MP Digital Camera

Who Needs Conversation When You’ve Got Memes?

Well, everybody else is doing it so I guess it’s my turn. I never know what to say in these things!

1. I’ve never flushed a toilet. I just don’t believe in it.

2. It’s nice having a 10.1 megapixel CCD, but sometimes it’s hard to find clothes that fit right.

3. My first concert was Dokken, Warrant, and Slaughter, July 23, 1989.

4. My first “boyfriend” was the guy who tunes Dokken’s guitars, July 23, 1989.

5. My favorite Holy Roman Emperor is Rudolf II.

6. After years of feeling inadequate, I’ve finally come to terms with my 3X optical zoom.

7. I truly believe that everyone was put here for a reason and that everyone has a purpose in life that they were made to accomplish and a role that only they can fill, except me.

8. I’m allergic to peanuts, especially the ones with salmonella.

9. In grade school, everybody called me “Lardcheeks”.

10. In juvenile detention, everybody called me “that fat girl who stabbed all those people.”

11. The three books that changed my life were Tuesdays with Morrie, The Secret, and American Psycho.

12. If I could be any animal, it would either be a dolphin, because they’re so graceful and beautiful and intelligent, or a horned toad, so I could shoot blood out of my eyes.

13. My features I like best are my eyebrows, my knees, and my 2.4” LCD screen.

14. I can’t stand broccoli or cauliflower, yet I love broccoflower. Go figure!

15. When I was 13, I promised myself that before I die, I’d go swimming in Antarctica, breakdance on the top of Mount Everest, and tell Cory Haim how I really feel about him.

16. I have a third nipple, but not on my body.

17. My biggest mistake was moving to Venice, Italy when I was 22. The place was flooded the entire time!

18. I am absolutely addicted to Chubby Hubby, Diet Black Cherry Shasta, and AA batteries.

19. I never miss an episode of Toddlers and Tiaras.

20. One lesson I’ve learned in life is, if TV’s Alan Thicke and his wife invite you back to your hotel room, it’s not to play Pictionary. (I really didn’t need to see him in that thong!!)

21. I wish I could find a guy who didn’t just want me for my Digital Panorama mode. There’s more to life than automatically stitching together a series of photos into a 180-degree image, guys!!

22. When my parents named me Pentax, they thought they’d call me “Penny”. They wound up mostly calling me “Idiot”.

23. I don’t think I could ever be a parent because of my lack of patience, selflessness, and genitals.

24. I consider myself a digital camera, but I’m one-eighth Daguerrotype on my mom’s side.

25. If I could travel through time to any period in history, I’d go back to the Golden Age: when Firefly was on.
