Friday's Quizzlet: Meming Out Justice.

Kids, you've heard me talk about memes a time or two. Friday's Quizzlet is a meme I get from an external source and I use it as a catalyst for material on dreary Friday mornings. I grow tired of it from time to time, and would also like to foster a little reader participation this week - so I'm going with more of a bullet-point quiz that I hope you'll enjoy and take for a spin yourself. I stole it from The Duck, and God only knows where she dug it up.

What is your name?: They call me Pye.
What is your astrological sign?: Sagittarius
What time did you get up this morning?: 9:00 am.
Favorite toothpaste: Some sort of Crest. I'm in and out of CVS in a flash.
Oprah or Dr. Phil?: Heterosexual.
What was your prom theme?: I have no idea. But based on all recollection, probably something from Ritual de lo Habitual.
3 Favorite Movies to Watch Hungover: Whatever's playing on TV in the Emergency Room at MGH.
Wax, pluck or shave: I pluck my eyebrows in the middle a wee bit and do a little 'dirty lawn' maintenance.
If free plastic surgery existed, what would you consider?: Contrary to what you read on here sometimes - I'm quite fond of myself. Nothing.
How do you take your coffee?: Cream and sugar if I'm out, black at home.
Favorite song in 6th Grade?: Pale Shelter by Tears for Fears.
Name Three Guilty Pleasures: The only question I've had trouble answering. I feel guilty enough about beer sometimes for all 3 spots. Sorry, Walla.
Who would you cast as you in the film adaptation of your life?: Vaughn, Fraser or Livingston - in that order.
If you could choose it, your last meal would consist of: Greek food, but I'd have no idea it was my last. As long as I stay out of the drug trade, I won't.
Age you lost your virginity: TMI. Far too young.
Is there any accessory you wear every day?: My Bruins charity bracelet.
Favorite Vacation Ever: South Africa for scenery, Australia for fun.
Current Celebrity Crush: Rachel Weisz.
Favorite Book as a Child: John Christopher's Tripod series. Now that I'm older and I know better, I liked it more when it was called War of the Worlds.
Where Were You on Your 21st Birthday?: The Brass Taps in Guelph. I'd been of age for 2 years. Big whoop. Here's an actual photo from that night.
Side, stomach or back?: All three, repeatedly, incessantly, please crush up some Ambien so I can snort it immediately.
Your Most Overused Phrase or Word: 'Comprehensively.' At work. At home, it's 'Nate, lower your voice, it's only basketball'.

Nice Meme, Dave. Actually, I made up the questions...And by the way, knowing how obsessed I am with all things food/cooking, why didn't you tell me you've got a friend who's a chef. Although, Rachel Ray is the most annoying girl ever. Giada is so much cuter.
