Ok, so I did this mumm called Fun Facts. It was so well received that I did it TWICE! Well the only problem with mumms is that they go away so quickly you know? So King Nothing decided to start a blog version of this!
*It's really simple, you write down facts about yourself, from the mundane, to the funny, to the weird, etc, etc, and post it as a blog. I do NOT want comments on this blog ok? The ONLY comments I would like to see here are links to the blogs where you do this at! That way if one of my friends would like to be a friend of yours, they can learn a lil something about you. And this will be a fun way to learn more about your friends!*
Thanks, King. So here goes...
-I drive a minivan and I don't care who knows it. It gets really great gas mileage and I can fit 8 people in it, so that's enough for me.
-When I was a child, my dad drank alot and fought with my mom while I hid in my room with the TV on full blast so I couldn't hear the yelling.
