I am a snowflake!

I have gone meme crazy! Ahem. But I like this one:

Uniqueness

Name a CD you own that no-one else on your flist does:

I literally own about 20 physical CDs. That's it. The vast majority of my music exists in purely digital form. BUT, the CD I own that I could quite easily guarantee no one else has is Steamy Monday, by the Impromptones. I used to be hardcore into improv, thanks to an early obsession with Whose Line Is It Anyway? Yeah, the American version sucked; I watched it anyway.

Name a book you own that no-one else on your friends list does:

Not In Front of the Servants: A True Portrait of English Upstairs/Downstairs Life, by Frank Dawes. Thanks to movies like Gosford Park and books like Alias Grace, I have a bit of an obsession with the topic. This book is excellent, and one of these days I will make use of the knowledge by writing a story set in Edwardian/Victorian England.

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/etc that no-one else on your friends list does:

I own a VHS copy of a porno called Shoot to Thrill. (WARNING: There is an advertisement at the top of this page that is NSFW. Naked boobies!!!) It has Ron Jeremy in it, who is just as gross as you'd imagine. Why I own it is a long story, which I don't have time to tell now since I'm about to be running late for work if I don't go get ready. BUT, when I moved out of my apartment, I packed this movie in a box with my other DVDs. (I own even fewer DVDs than I do CDs.) A box which my PARENTS unpacked. Did they freak out, get embarrassed, or confront me about it? Nope. They simply placed it on the shelf next to all my other movies.

Name a place that you have visited that no-one else on your friends list has:

The General George S. Patton Museum in Fort Knox Kentucky. Who wouldn't want to spend an hour or two viewing the discarded clothing and personal memorabilia of a dead war General?

ME! Fuck, it was boring. Anyway, the site says it's shut now for a COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION! I can only hope this transformation will include adding a fully-stocked bar and/or amusement park rides.
