Of all the neat things I have enjoyed so far in the 25 thing thing (yes, I meant to write thing thing), I must say I am the MOST excited by Bud’s participation. He’s not a wordy guy, so I did not actually expect him to participate. But, participate he did. The overachiever wrote 28 things!! I am pretty thrilled he did. Like the DustMeister, I’ve written a few comments in-line in Bud’s favorite color GREEN. Here you go Bud:
I guess I should join in the fun
- 1. I never thought Magoo would admit to missing me. (Me either, that was pretty awesome!)
2. I have seen nearly every episode of over 25 different animes.
3. I probably know more about Heroes than everyone else who reads this blog put together.
4. When I’m quiet, I usually just can’t think of anything worth saying. (Explain this further please)
5. I can dislocate 14 different joints.
6. I have 3 posters and a bunch of pictures in my apartment hiding in a corner that I never got around to putting up. (You could do it now you know)
7. I once made a homemade pizza from scratch. It took me 5 and a half hours and tasted horrible. I added a tablespoon of salt when I should have added a teaspoon. (He is right, it was horrible. I wanted to like it but I could not)
8. I would love to have a super power. I’d take any one. I just want one.
9. I wish I could draw.
10. I have a lot of obsessions (aka Heroes, animes, super powers, etc), but I don’t talk about them because I assume that whoever I’m talking to doesn’t want to talk about them.
11. If you ever tell me that you share in one of my obsessions, we will talk about that a lot. You have been warned
12. I could live off mac and cheese and pizza. (and you have!)
13. The reason I’m usually late is because I don’t like arriving early. So I try to arrive at exactly on time. It just usually doesn’t work out. (I did not know this!)
14. I’m easily entertained and easily bored. You wouldn’t think those 2 would go together but they somehow do.
15. It get annoyed by computer screens in movies but the majority of the time, what you see on a computer in a movie would never appear on an actual computer screen. (The true mark of a geek)
16. I’m also annoyed when people say in movies, commercials, tv shows, etc that no one would actually say in real life.
17. I don’t like talking about myself
18. I have taken 4 years of Spanish and I still can’t speak the language (mucho grande!!!!)
19. It’s comforting for me to have a knife in my hands. (I know it’s creepy, but it’s true)
20. I could never live in a city. Too many people, too much noise.
21. I have never broken a bone. Although I did break 17 tendons in my ankle once, but no bones. (17 tendons… I think you pulled that out of thin air. Do people even have 17 tendons in their feet? You did do a number on your foot, but 17 tendons? really?)
22. I have a lot of patience with people, but not a lot with machines.
23. I’m very easily distracted…o hey, I’m late for Imago Dei. I need to go. (Nice transition)Comment by Bud — February 10, 2009 @ 9:02 pm - Here’s the rest. No more interruptions, I promise.24. I get nervous going through those scanner things at the entrance of stores that make sure you aren’t stealing anything. I’m always worried that they’ll go off. I think it’s because I carried a “set those scanner things off” circuit in my wallet for a while, not knowing what it did. I just thought it looked cool. Except it kept making those scanner things go off when I walked into stores.
25. I like not wearing a shirt. I find that it’s very comfortable. I don’t just do it to freak Magoo out (that’s an added bonus) (it is, isn’t it?)
26. (bonus) I always have 5-6 writing utensils on my pockets. I’ll say they’re for school, except I only use 1 or 2 of them (the rest are either broken, out of lead, or pens (pens suck but I always have at least one on me)). I’ll also say that they’re for cleaning out my fingernails. But mostly I have them with me because I have busy hands and they always need to be playing with something. So I put them in my pocket and they play with my pencils.
27. (another bonus (because of the interruption)) I don’t use shaving cream when I shave

- Last one, I swear28. When I’m doing something I enjoy, I want to be very through about it. I like to watch every episode of a tv show in order. With video games, I want to follow every path and explore every annoyingly minute detail. And so on.
I love you Bud!!
Would you shut already – you say you don’t talk a lot and then I read 26, 27, thought I was done and THEN 28!!!!!! Stop it!!!
PS- Nice Job Zack!
That’s the meanest thing you ever said to me.
I’m going to go off in a corner and cry now.
Man Bud, you are putting some pressure on me to get my list in.. This whole time I was counting on you to stay with the “I don’t know what to write so I’ll just read everyone else’s brilliant comments” group.
[...] Bud’s 25 things. [...]
I know this is really late, but I loved reading this! It’s so great to be able to learn more things about you, Bud!
PS. I also love animes and superpowers…. But you probably already knew that.
