One of the biggest annoyances of getting involved in a popular social networking site like Facebook is the increased exposure to all of the latest internet memes such as the now-infamous "25 Things About Me" posts. Rather than taking part in this narcissistic new trend, I'm taking a cue from Claire Suddath at Time Magazine and instead compiling my list of "25 Things I Didn't Need to Know About You."
- Liza loves competition cooking shows.
- Beth includes "candlelight" in her Match.com list of turn-offs.
- Julenna hates tomatoes but LOVES ketchup, salsa, spaghetti sauce, etc.
- David enjoys wearing suits and tuxedos.
- Tim L once came close to murdering his brother over a box of Pop-Tarts.
- Ben thinks C.S. Lewis is overrated.
- Jen P owns all 10 seasons of Friends on DVD and enjoys watching them over and over.
- Courtney has never broken a bone, but has sprained her vagina.
- Tim W was in some church musicals during his high school years, and apologizes to anyone who had to sit through those.
- Rachel loves dancing to the electric slide at weddings.
- Bryan, Clinton, and Tim W love their wives.
- Renee and her family quote lines from their home videos like they are actual movies.
- Kelly didn't shave for two years and it really freaked people out.
- Michelle owns a gavel.
- Clinton loves going to the movies by himself.
- Megan was a classical oboist for 9 years.
- Bryan cranks up old Ratt, Motley Crue and Dokken albums when he's alone in the office.
- Jen K hates the words "slacks" and "trousers."
- Both Kelly and Rachel have an unnatural addiction to peanut butter.
- Chandra freaks out monthly that she might be pregnant, then is sad when she finds out she isn't.
- Jenna failed her first driving test before she even started the car.
- Liz really likes court shows.
- Eleanor hates crowds, and especially drunken crowds.
- Jessica has been arrested twelve times.
