I’m a living, breathing, warm-blooded (there are people who disagree on this point), thinking person. Nevertheless, Miss Attitude called me an “it” and tagged me, so I have to do the Five Things post. I’m not that interesting and I lead a quite boring life, not to mention that I’m trying not to include the ones I did on plurk some time ago. So I had to think long and hard just to come up with the five. But here they are.
Step #1 – Link to the person who tagged you. See above.
Step #2 – Write Five Fun/Interesting Facts about yourself. This gives fellow bloggers (and your readership) a chance to actually get to know you better.
- I’m a misanthrope. I generally do not like people and I do not like partying. I’d rather be left alone. It doesn’t mean I hate everybody. I keep a small number of intimate friends to whom I’m fiercely loyal. But as it is, I have also been disappointed by a few former friends who took my friendship for granted who have been cut off from my life.
- I had LASIK surgery done 7 years ago. Before the surgery, both my eyes were -4.5 or something ridiculous like that. I had worn glasses since I was 8 (give or take a year) and wore contacts for years which made my eyes dry beyond measure – the surgeon did a test, and my tear ducts were not producing any moisture for the duration of the test.
- I have misshapen ears. They do not look like ears of most people and therefore, I cannot find any bluetooth devices or earphones that fit my ears. Everything I’ve tried just fall off or wiggle their way out of my ear in a few seconds and I’ve tried many.
- I once fainted and fell onto the Long Island Railroad track in 1988 (or 1989). Not only my body managed not to touch the third rail, but also the express train that was supposed to zip past the station was delayed as well, and I was helped back to the platform by strangers. On account of me, the express train stopped at the station to the delight of all who were waiting for the train.
- I don’t know how to make an omelette. I’ve tried many times, but the eggs always end up getting scrambled.
Step #3 – Tag 6 other bloggers to do the same.
I hope you guys haven’t done this yet.

[...] As a misanthrope, I despise a number of people. But I do have my reasons for every single one of them. I know some people were wondering about the coworkers I despise. This is why I despise one of them, the storage guy, i.e., the guy I despise who in turn despises me. [...]
