A Quiz

Sometimes you just don't want to write...it takes too much effort to come up with topics or issues that don't surround your immediate world. So instead, why not take a pre-fabricated quiz that lists all your likes and dislikes in a compact format? It's like the drive-thru of conversationalism. "I'll have two favorite tv shows and a 'have you ever...' to go please. Oh - and an extra packet of positive exaggeration."
So here is the Wal-Mart Supercenter of Questionnaires...
