1. Juice (how much I love it, how it can change your life, what kind I bought today, do you want some?)

2. My gray hairs (how many there are, how horrifying they appear to me, how I can no longer date 22 year-olds as a result)

3. Windows XP (how much I loathe it, how often it crashes)

4. Blogging (how funny my commenters are, what I’m going to write about next, who I wish I could write like…)

5. Insomnia (how fun sleep would be if I only knew how, what I got done instead of sleeping)

6. My total physical disrepair (how it appears my ear is falling off, what is that rash on my leg, is one eye larger than the other?)

7. Things I should be saving for (everything I don’t have, what do you mean, stop buying coffee?)

8. The weather (why is it raining? why is it only sunny on weekdays? what is it like in san diego right now?)

What do you talk about so often that you drive everyone nuts?

“choose ye” continues to rock the globe.

From Chris, who already totally made me smile with this:

“My daughter Mandy (who you might remember did a Meg Fowler CHOOSE bulletin board at Radford University) has now turned it into an ice breaker game!

During rush week for her co-ed honors fraternity Phi Sigma Pi they needed some gamesto get the pledges to mingle with the “brothers” and interact. She stood at the front of the room and said things like “Mustards to the left and Ketchups to the right”. Then the groups talked about why they’d made the choice they did (only 4 mustards to 56 ketchups by the way!!). Of course each grouping was different so they got to meet and talk with lots of different people.

It ended up being hilarious. The Dave Chappelle or Will Farrell choose almost caused a riot – because no one could make the choice. Mandy insisted they pick one (to which they replied “we hate you, Mandy”). She didn’t care, of course, because she was on a complete power trip!

And when she said “Rolling Stones or Beatles” there was a group of 3 girls who stayed in the middle because “we don’t know who either one is…” One of the fraternity brothers got in the startled girls’ faces and screamed “THEN YOU DON’T KNOW MUSIC!”

I fear those poor girls will not be voted into PSP this time around.

They asked Mandy “what do you call this game?” and she said “Meg’s Choose Game”. And thus you continue to be immortalized!”

HOW FREAKIN’ COOL IS THAT!

Just click “either or” on my categories over there to see more Choose Ye fun.
