25 things about me, Facebook style

Issue date: 2/13/09 Section: Opinion
18. I bought a carbon monoxide detector for my apartment, and I made sure that I got one with a 100 percent money back guarantee because I wanted to make sure that if I died, they would refund my $12.
19. I can absorb 2,000 times my weight in water.
20. I'm made in Germany.
21. Beware of imitators.
22. I think there's something to be said about the Internet and cell phones destroying the discreteness of the college experience. Our generation is in greater touch with our parents and siblings than any previous generation, and our ability to get in touch with anyone at any time has made "hangouts" obsolete, which is A-OK by me if Mr. Burger was the place we were gonna chill. At the same time, though, I get Facebook-invited to parties I never even would have heard of in 1988. It's an interesting topic for discussion.
23. Another supposedly classic Fayetteville restaurant that doesn't live up to its reputation is A.Q. Chicken, which they should more accurately call O.K. Chicken - which reminds me, have you guys and gals seen that Chinese buffet called O.K. China Buffet? How awesome a name is that? In response, I'm going to open a buffet called Greg's Mediocre Bistro.
24. Wow, 25 really is a lot.
25. I was born in 1987.

Awesome follow up article to the previous canned one. Padding your list before you reach 10, on a list that people do a more interesting and better job than you on their break time, nice. (Continued…)

Absolutely horrible, on every level. Who allowed this to be put in the paper?
