    @EvanK84 !! You're back!! Where have you been?! Again, love your party planning skills & how you turned my idea into something so beautiful "everyone is special. Let's discover it"
    Do you do something like this for a career?
    Cuz in addition to helping each other reach our health goals, I'd love it if people found their true calling from chatting in our corner :)

    I love to quote Dumb & Dumber

    I love to play trivia (as in give me a couple of lyrics or a quote with the proper inflection & I'll play that guessing game ALLLL day long)

    I love my "You're killing me Smalls" tshirt

    I get goosebumps when there is a good dance scene in a movie

    I am an expert on breastfeeding and boobs. There should be a place for me in the zombie apocalypse bunker.

    “Hey smalls! You want a s’more?”
    “ Some more of what?”
    “ oh no, do you want a S’MORE?”
    “ How can I have some more of something if I haven’t had anything yet?”
    “ You’re killing me smalls!”

    “I’m baking like a toasted cheeser! It’s so hot here!” Ever summer I quote Ham lmao

    Hahaha!!!!!! @cwells16!

    Umm so the Craft-kinda related. My Dads house is rumored to be haunted. I lived w him & my step mom for a little bit. They are so awesome. Let me help you picture this---imagine George Costanza's parents-totally my dad & step mom-looks, mannerisms). So...the 3 of us are watching A Haunting on tv & I suggest we try light as a feather, stiff as a board...with secret hopes it would have the outcome of floating Rachel....... it didn't work.
    But I did see a ghost within the time I lived there :wink:

    *small voice* Several times :wink: honestly what preteen/teen girl during the 90’s didn’t try and call on Menon at least once after that movie came out? lmao Is it weird that Nancy’s crazy a** was my favorite character? I don’t think she was a bad person. She just seemed unhappy with her life and got carried away with her newfound powers.

    Hahaha!!!!!! @cwells16!

    Where should I let my nerdom begin? !

    Movie quotes, I can't even name all the movie quotes my friends and I go through, but some of the movies include Anything Minty Python, The Goonies, Spaceballs, Harry Potter...so many more.

    I LOVE BOOKS! And have a rather small collection going (relative to the number of books in the world) but definitely have all the Harry Potters, Lord of the Rings, The Dark Tower series, classics galore.

    I love brains (they're fascinating) and have a coaster set on my desk at work of brain slices. It's not creepy...

    Some of my favorite things come from Thinkgeek.com

    I have more, but my 1pm appointment just showed up. Catch everyone later.

    I am a huge Terry Pratchett fan. I don't have all his books - I am missing a few from my collection

    J.R.R Tolkien also has a special place on my bookshelf. In fact, he has a whole shelf dedicated to his books, the movies and LOTR collectors edition movie stuff!

    I have tried to watch Lord of the Rings several times, and always fell asleep early on. Guess it's not my thing.

    I had a crush on Mick Dundee.

    I loved Crocodile Dundee I & II! I still say "wakey, wakey" in his accent when someone is waking up from a nap, but no one knows what's it's from hahaha

    I'm watching Ellen on Laff network. They have AMERICAN GLADIATORS Ice & Nitro on!! I'm gonna say it...I would watch this over American Ninja Warrior on Sat mornings any day. It seemed more entertaining, the contestants seemed more relatable to the average Joe...the games were fun-the thing that shot balls at the contestants?? (Which reminds me of another great show-most extreme elimination challenge -"I love pie!")

    Without googling, what's another gladiator name? I'm pretty confident Diamond is one.

    Turbo! Tower! Nice!!! You all are awesome!

    So what' would your American Gladiator name?

    Mine would be ...hmmm...what would sound good coiming out of an announcer's mouth....
    I'm gonna ponder this one when I can't sleep.....I was thinking about something like Sweetie but then I think Sammie from Jersey Shore had a similar nickname. N now I'm mad at myself for knowing that/referencing that shore.....and DVRing it back in the day....
