Five Things You Now Know About Me

I realised that I hadn't yet made good on my promise to provide the answers to my (disastrously unsuccessful) "The Friday Five Things You May or May Not Know About Me" post.

Mark gets drinks of his choice the next time we're out in the pub for being the only one to make even the slightest attempt at getting into the spirit of the thing, and for making me laugh.

For those of you missed the quizlet, the questions were:

1. I have 6 piercings. Where are they? A point for each correct answer.
2. I've started and stopped blogging several times in several locations. How many blog urls have I had? Bonus points if you can name more than 3 of them.
3. How many different hair colours have I had in the last 18 months? Bonus points for being able to name more than 3.
4. I am the world's worst (most pathetic) rebel. Why is this?
5. I have several little "foibles". What are these? One point for each correct one.

Read on for the answers...


1. I have two piercings in my left ear (one in the lobe and one in the ear rim) and one in my right ear lobe. My tongue is pierced, as are both of my nipples. My adventures with body modification didn't stop there, however - I also have a tattoo.

2. I've had 8 urls across 4 domains. 4 on pixeldiva.co.uk, 2 on annelizabeth.co.uk, 1 on annelizabeth.net and this current one.

3. 12. Brown, black with red streaks, brown, burgundy red, ginger with blonde roots, RED, black, black with red roots, ginger with red roots, ginger with blonde roots, brownish red, burgundy.

4. I tried to get wasted on my birthday and spectacularly failed, so I went out the next night and got very very drunk instead, and wound up spending the next three hours barfing my guts up on the pavement outside the pub. Rebellious indeed, or would have been, had I not been so mortified that I used the pints of water I was being brought to keep my hydrated to attempt to clean up the mess.

5. So much ammunition on this site and not one of you took the chance to shoot me with it. So I'm only going to give you one, and a silly one at that - I find it practically impossible to eat cream biscuits properly - I have to take one side off, then scrape off the cream with my teeth, then eat the other side. The same principle applies to Bounty bars, Twixes and Double Decker bars.

So now you know.

Damn I thought I was at least a little close with the piercings. Mark may have made you laugh but I think I can recall you calling me a nightmare with my comments. hee hee

Posted by: S | Dec 9, 2003 1:37:58 PM

So I was pretty close to getting them all right, if it hadn't been for the biscuits (you weirdo).

Posted by: Mark | Dec 9, 2003 2:29:18 PM

how the hell do you gnaw the chocolate off a twix bar?

Posted by: unmute | Dec 9, 2003 2:42:16 PM

Probably sucks it to death.....

Posted by: S | Dec 9, 2003 2:47:02 PM

and what about jaffa cakes? do you suck the juicy bits out?

Posted by: Dragon | Dec 9, 2003 5:59:20 PM

(hmmm - should have read that before posting! It sounds *so* wrong!)

Posted by: Dragon | Dec 9, 2003 6:00:24 PM

Mark: takes one to know one...

S: stop giving away my trade secrets!

Dragon: Yes (...but it feels *so* right ;))

Sorry I thought they were my trade secrets ;o)

Posted by: S | Dec 10, 2003 12:04:23 PM

... death, S?

Crikey.

Posted by: Mark | Dec 10, 2003 2:34:28 PM

Speaking of Bounty bars, I think you still owe me 21p : )

Love the back tat you are thinking of.

Posted by: J | Dec 11, 2003 8:08:55 AM

Death, why on earth would you say that :o( but maybe you are right with the crikey ;o)

Posted by: S | Dec 11, 2003 9:41:39 AM

I was querying your earlier solution to gnawing chocolate from a Twix ... to 'death', S.

Double 'crikey' and a 'lawks'.

Posted by: Mark | Dec 11, 2003 10:47:30 AM

You are eating them the right way; it's the weirdos who take actual bites of the things who are wrong. I eat Snickers (do you have Snickers over there? I don't recall seeing them last time we visited, but I think I was drunk that week) the way you nibble Twix. The chocolate is thicker, but then you have to lick off the nougat and nibble away the peanuts, and end up with caramel coated mouth and hands and it looks like so much nasty nasty porn.

Posted by: Jessica | Dec 11, 2003 3:45:12 PM

Snickers = Marathon. Or it used to. I think they call them Snickers in the UK now too.

Idea to disgust your friends:

Take a Mars Bar (Milky Way in the US), and microwave it until it's a sludgy mess.
As it cools, shape mess into turd facsimile.
Refrigerate.
Eat chocoturd messily, with look of delight on your face.

The Tatt looks great. Now how about those nipple pictures ;-)

Posted by: Adrian Sevitz | Dec 12, 2003 4:44:53 AM

Adrian - I'm afraid that with your current security clearance I can neither confirm nor deny the existance of any such pictures. ;)

Posted by: pix | Dec 12, 2003 10:50:29 AM

Which in itself is a confirmation ....

Posted by: Adrian Sevitz | Dec 12, 2003 2:53:02 PM

You might think that. I couldn't possibly comment.

Posted by: pix | Dec 12, 2003 2:56:08 PM

Denial in light of an obvious confirmation is confirmation unto itself.

Anyway who hasn't got picture of their bits distributed around the net these days...

Posted by: Adrian Sevitz | Dec 13, 2003 4:12:55 PM

Even if they did exist, and I'm neither confirming or denying that they do, you still don't have the security clearance ;)

Posted by: pix | Dec 13, 2003 11:21:07 PM

Security clearances can be bought. Or at least taken off a dead body.

And if they didn't exist it would been denied. Falure to confirm is not denial.
