TNP has been meaning to go to the doctor/dentist for that thing that's been bugging them.

Indeed I have. Damn slow about it.
TNP eats a lot of restaurant meals.
"I won't kill for money, and I won't marry for it. Other than that, I'm open to just about anything."

False. I hardly do it at all these days, as there aren't any good or interesting options around here. I do tend to eat out a lot when I'm on vacation or visiting someone in a more restaurant friendly area.
TNP is lactose intolerant.
So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.
False! I can also vouch for Zuul's answer above. We didn't exactly eat mac&cheese when she was down here.
TNP has drank a trenta sized drink from Starbuck's.
So, I'll whisper in the dark, hoping you'll hear me.
False; I haven't had any drink from Starbucks in a while. I don't hate Starbucks or have anything against them on principle - it's just that their foothold in Utah is weak due to the anti-coffee Mormon culture and the local dominance of Beans n' Brews. I would have to pass three or four locally owned coffee shops before I reached the nearest *$.
TNP likes runny, stinky cheese.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
No. Not so much. Do like really, really aged cheddar.
TNP enjoys classic sitcoms.
"I won't kill for money, and I won't marry for it. Other than that, I'm open to just about anything."
-Jim Rockford
False. I think sitcoms, in general, age more quickly and more poorly than any other form of entertainment. I tried to watch some Seinfeld the other day and was shocked that I had ever thought it was hilarious, and that's only 10-15 year old TV. Once you get back into Silver Spoons or Three's Company territory, I'm pinching my nose.
TNP has eaten something under the 3-second rule in the past week.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
False. I don't use the rule, although I explained it to a Korean, who thought it was hilarious.
TNP likes avocado (alligator pears).
Oh hell yes I do. Mmmmmmm. Guacamole, avocado on sandwiches, or even an avocado smoothie.
TNP has stolen something with a value > $20 USD.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
False. Well, other than control of the Mellophant server on occasion, bwahahahahahaha.
TNP has eaten Haggis before.
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
False, but I'm dying to try. Just not quite dying enough to risk buying a whole one for myself.
TNP is an evening shower-taker.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
D'you know the smell of hot dog food? That's what haggis tastes like. YMMV.
True. Otherwise I would have to wash my bed and everything attached to it every day.
TNP wishes on falling stars.
No, I usually only wish on birthday candles.
TNP will be watching the State of the Union Address tonight.
False. For obvious reasons.
TNP has eaten roast pumpkin.

True! I hadn't realized it was still rattling around in my head until I just tried to remember, but it's there.
TNP has thrown a boomerang.
So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.
True, but it was one of those cheesy three-pointed Nerf things, not a fair dinkum 'roo killer or anything.
TNP has watched an episode of American Idol this season.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."
find me at Goodreads
True. Dangerous pastime it is, too!
ETA: OCS beat me by a nanosecond.
False. I learnt my lesson with Idol.
TNP watches Letterman.

Nah, I like it fine -- around Christmas -- would never think of drinking it outside of December.
TNP ate at a restaurant yesterday.
True! I went out for Chinese.
TNP is not having coffee today.
So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.
I had my one cup. Needed it too, I did not get 6 hours sleep last night.
TNP is using Windows 7

TNP loves cilantro.
"I won't kill for money, and I won't marry for it. Other than that, I'm open to just about anything."

True, and I will haunt my next of kin if they deny those wishes.
TNP could still happily play with blocks.
So, I'll whisper in the dark, hoping you'll hear me.
True. I love building stuff and designing fantasy homes.

So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.

TNP could change the oil in their own car right now without instruction.

TNP uses some sort of Bluetooth phone connectivity.
"I won't kill for money, and I won't marry for it. Other than that, I'm open to just about anything."
-Jim Rockford
False. In all honesty, I always have to stop and remember which is Bluetooth, and which is Bluray.
TNP carries a cigarette lighter.
False; I don't smoke, and I'm pretty minimalist about what I carry in my pockets anyway.
TNP has been at >10,000 feet above sea level.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

False. Denver, Colo. is, I think, the highest place I've ever been, and it's only just over half that high.
Despite the airline security hassles, TNP loves to fly.
False. Not a fan at all. I like getting where I'm going faster, but not anything else.
TNP has an umbrella in any other color but black
False...ish. Most of my umbrellas are "black and" in some form or fashion.
TNP prefers scripted drama to "reality" drama.
So, I'll whisper in the dark, hoping you'll hear me.
True. I've never been able to get into reality TV. When we were kids and my cousins were obsessed with the Real World, I'd just sit there in pained agony as they watched and rambled on about how much they wanted to grow up and be on that show.
TNP has a favorite dog breed.
So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.
Hmm, not really. I like border collies, but I don't feel real strongly about it.
TNP has a best friend they don't see nearly enough of.
False. I see my best friend all the time.

TNP owns a functioning non-digital camera.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

TNP uses a laptop as their primary computer.
"You laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at you because I'm on nitrous."

No. Desk top, and now iPhone.

God, yes. I hate rats so much.
