Wots a meme when its at home?

In the comments section on a previous post Aoife Indie Hour 'meme'd me. Now I'm torn between looking like an egotistical bebo kid or a curmudgeonly online grinch. I'll go with bebo kid.

According to Sinead Gleeson who tagged Aoife here’s how it works:

Link to the person that tagged you.
Post the rules on your blog.
Write six random things about you in a blog post.
Tag six people in your post.
Let each person know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
Let the taggee know your entry is up.

Six random things about me. None are made up.

1: I find tea (the drink) very aversive. In fact I don't even know what it tastes like. Its milky, creepy, reminds me of toothless old people and teabags stain things.

2: I am related to shamed British TV comedian Michael Barrymore.

3: At the age of 3 my twin brother and I sat on eggs from the fridge in an attempt to hatch them and cried when they broke all over our dungarees.

4: The first time I kissed a girl at a junior disco I had to run and puke from a combination of anxiety and the fact that her breath smelled really bad.

5: As a child, I once climbed a tree with Podge from Ham Sandwich. He was at the top and I was following from behind when he decided to have a pee from his perch.

6: The song at the end of bear in the big blue house when he sings to the moon makes me feel profoundly melancholy

Great meme.

You got teabagged as a child by Michael Barrymore dressed as a clown, remember? Thats why you hate teabags, and he also urinated on you and gave you your first kiss, while getting you to try and hatch his 'eggs' with your mouth, the bear in the big blue house reminds you of this for some reason, his plaintive song signifies your innocence lost at the hands of barrymore the clown....

nothing like a bit of honesty

I'm thinking about it, but I don't know enough non-tagged bloggers to pass the infection on. We'll see.

Im actually DYING laughing at what Ciaran said, that is hillarious!!!! Now thats truth!!

Also i will never forgive you for listing Ian ahead of me. I am heartbroken that you thought of him before YOUR FUCKING GIRLFRIEND!!!!!!!!

No Mario Galaxy for you.

Also this "MEME" thing is shite, but all fair in tagging, teabagging and tip the can.

What's Bebo?

My Left Ventricle said...

no. Im not doing this. Im being bold.
I don't want to tell people who read my blog about my random life facts in fear of being taunted for my secret love of Phil Collins!! Screw you!!!!

adam said...

Right. Done. Now to sit back and watch the cash come rolling in...no wait..I've wildly misjudged this meme thing..

Sinéad said...

God, I certainly didn't start it, the person who tagged me, who tagged them etc etc, did.
There used to be a lot of them around a couple of years back, but they died off. I blame whoever resurrected them. Bah.

Gardenhead said...

Hahaha sorry Sinead. I'll clarify that
