From DaveS comes this meme. Sorry for using the word “meme”. But it’s a good meme, I think.
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc.).
2. Put it on shuffle.
3. Press play.
4. For every question, type the song that’s playing.
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button.
6. Don’t lie and try to pretend you’re cool.

For the record, I skipped ahead once. Once, instead of a song, I got a podcast, so I didn’t allow that to count.
Otherwise, a pretty cool soundtrack, if you ask me. All over the place. I am particularly happy with the Opening and Closing Credits choices. Also happy to have Black Flag playing for my death scene. Wonder where that’ll be, and what the circumstances will be?

A Day in the Life” for operning credits. That’s perfect. So I take it your first girlfriend wasn’t named Annabelle. I’ll have to give this a go later.
