The Infamous Bucket List.
Just in case you all hadn't seen these come up in your FaceBook recently, here's another form of a Me Me that has surfaced. I normally don't have the want and or time to participate in this frivolity no matter how much fun they can be.
I just thought I'd pass along this new wacky form so someone doesn't Me Me {Me} in the future. Not a big fan of them sorry to say. Some of these questions/statements are truly bizarre. Who wrote these anyways?
Everything you wanted to know about me and maybe some more you don't want to know about is in here.
It doesn't include anything too recent though.
Below are the rules and if you are on Facebook it will probably show up eventually on your wall too.
Place an X by all the things you've done and remove the X from the ones you have not, then send it to your friends (including me).
For FaceBook (To do this, go to "notes" under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, do the list and tag 25 people or so or people in general (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.)
