False, I like turkey.
TNP usually cooks a tasty dish from scratch at least one or more times per week.

TNP usually cooks a tasty dish from scratch at least one or more times per week.
Makes, yes. Cooks, no. My skills in the kitchen are pretty much limited to sandwiches, crackers, cereal and the like.
TNP has a garage which needs to be cleaned out for the winter.
False - I haven't even got a shed to put my bike in.
TNP has a place for everything and everything in its place.
To sleep, perchance to experience amygdalocortical activation and prefrontal deactivation.
True, I am the queen of labeled drawers. This does not keep me from making a mess, though.
TNP has set foot in at least 3 countries.
False. I've stepped foot in two; USA and Canada.
The next person to post has attended at least 5 distinct theater shows.
Yes: The Mikado, Inherit the Wind, Pride and Prejudice, Fiddler on the Roof and 1776 in recent memory.
TNP can recite at least one poem from memory.
Yes - High Flight, by John Gillespie McGee, Jr.
TNP has not looked at the snackpit in at least a month.
No, I was actually just looking at it. They really amuse themselves, don't they.
TNP speaks more than two languages.
False - unless gobbledegook is classed as a language. ( Even then I'd fail, as you want 3 minimum.)
TNP is thinking about coffee at this moment.

True but boringly so ... just marijuana and hashish back in the 1970s.
TNP has gorged on a salty food to the point where their lips and/or mouth's mucous membranes felt weird.
True. I love BBQ and sour-cream-and-onion potato chips, and have snacked to excess a time or two.
TNP is reluctant to take most medicine.
True. I haven't been to a doctor, aside from dentists and eye doctors, in at least five years, and I rarely if ever take OTC medications.
TNP fancies him- or herself a pretty good singer.

False - I couldn't hold a note in a shopping basket.
TNP has appeared in a school play.
To sleep, perchance to experience amygdalocortical activation and prefrontal deactivation.
True, I remember playing the middle-aged housekeeper in a play during high school. Beats me what the name or plot were, thought.
TNP is considering changing their avatar.
Well, I don't have one and have considered adding one, so I'll say yes.
TNP is already annoyed by Christmas music on the radio.
Yes, well, not so much the radio as the piped-in muzak in all the stores. It's always the wimpiest versions - why of why does a song like "White Christmas" need to be further watered down by doing an all-strings version?! I feel as though I've been doing shots of Karo syrup.
TNP is already, by his or her own estimation, more than half done with holiday shopping.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

Yes, I actually am just about done, which is quite unusual for me. I'm feeling pretty good about it all.
TNP is going to be traveling someplace fun for the holidays.

True...well, fun for me, anyway; we're going to Utah next weekend to go see my kiddos.
TNP has more than two brands of hot sauce in the house right now.

True...we have maybe 7-8, I'm guessing.
TNP has a Beanie Baby on their desk.
False. The closest I have to anything like that is a ceramic business card holder shaped to look like a couple of turtles.
At some point in their life, TNP has considered becoming a vegetarian.
Never! In the famous last words of David Carradine, you'll get my meat when you pry it from my cold dead fingers.
TNP has been in a car accident that consisted of more than just a fender bender.
True - once as a passenger and once while driving myself.
TNP will get up and dance in public stone cold sober. (There has to be music playing, otherwise you are just classed as a bit crazy!)
To sleep, perchance to experience amygdalocortical activation and prefrontal deactivation.
I'm not sure. If I'm in public with music playing, I'm not sober.
TNP lives with one or more cats.
True - and a very bossy flatmate she is too*!
TNP can play a musical instrument.
* Obligatory cat pic.

True, I play bari sax and tuba.
Next poster is a fan of barbecue.
True. I shouldn't be and it isn't something I ever ate as a kid, but I've grown quite fond of it.
TNP has never been married.
Hallelujah, it's true!
TNP puts up a tree for Christmas.
Yes, on behalf of my husband and son.
The next poster has never had a wart.
False - I have one on my left forefinger, which I keep to remind me that I'll never be perfect.
TNP will slip on ice some time during the winter, based on previous experience.
To sleep, perchance to experience amygdalocortical activation and prefrontal deactivation.
Very likely, although I've never been seriously hurt yet. :: crosses fingers ::
Nice one about David Carradine, beebs.
TNP drinks lots of ice water with meals.
True. I am a water addict, in fact.
TNP has never dumped anyone.
False. Most of the time I tried to be decent about it, but I was the dumper at least as often as I was the dumpee back in my dating days.
TNP is allergic to at least one thing.
Correct - dander, pollen and dust, in particular.
TNP sends out Christmas cards.
Incorrect, but due to geography and budget I may be doing it this year instead of giving people gifts.
TNP turns into a rockstar in the car when a good song comes on the radio.
Give me whiskey when I'm thirsty,Give me a cold beer when I'm dry, Give me root beer when I'm sickly, Give me a headstone when I die.
True. But I tone it down at stoplights so I don't look like a freak.
TNP is currently drinking a carbonated beverage.
False. I drank some Pepsi last night, but I'm all out now. Also, Pepsi sucks.
TNP has a piercing somewhere other than the ears.
Nope. I'm too old - were I to get a body piercing, it would look like a pathetic attempt to recapture my lost youth.
TNP has been on a blind date that did not go well.
Several, actually. I'm not saying I'm the world's greatest catch or hottest guy, or anything like that, but I have been on several blind dates where I could tell I was a favor to the girl, not the other way around. Where it wasn't "Hey, I bet these two friends of mine would hit it off," but more a case of "Hey, OneCentStamp is pretty good-looking, and unfailingly polite; I bet he would give _______'s self esteem a nice boost." Awkward.
TNP is wearing more than two layers of fabric somewhere on their body (pockets don't count).
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

True. I have on a sweatshirt and a regular shirt and an undershirt and I'm about to get a damn blanket because I'm cold.
TNP has chewing gum within arm's reach (pockets totally count).
False. I'm too dumb to chew gum - if I start, I masticate like a lobotomized cow until I eventually bite the inside of my mouth. So it's best just not to go there.
TNP takes off their shoes to walk around inside their own house.

True. I cannot stand shoes and then there's the mud and slush factor up here. They're removed as soon as I get into the entryway. If it's cold, I'll wear slippers. No shoes!
TNP hates cold weather.
So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.
Really cold weather, true, since I live in a kinda drafty house. But I can always put on another sweater, and will take cold anytime over hot, humid summer stickiness.
TNP believed in Santa for an unusually long time as a child.
False. I think I was six-ish?
TNP has more than one pet at home (kids don't count)

Sorta true, if you count my parents' place as home. (Two cats.)
TNP doesn't have cable.
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. When all you have is a bowel disruptor, everything's a poop joke.

TNP is headed out of town for the holidays. (Let's say within the next month.)

Probably true, we hope to spend a few days in Bali after school lets out.
TNP has had a double post recently and doesn't know why.
False. I've had no problems with double posts.
TNP likes 1940s big band music.
