I'm great with Excel. Also, not a terribly interesting person.
But this thread reminds me of something that happened back in college, and so recounting this incident shall be a fact about my past:
I was once in a cultural anthropology class, and on the very first day the professor had every student say one thing about themselves - however, he told us that what we say can either be the truth or it can be a lie, and it's up to us to decide for ourselves.
Now, this concept filled me with a great deal of social anxiety. "What do I say? There's nothing interesting about me... oh wow, that guys speaks Japanese.... do I just make up a funny lie? I think that's my best bet...." I was sitting in the back quarter of the room, so I had plenty of time to agonize about this as my turn slowly came towards me like the pendulum in that Edgar Allen Poe story.
I had made my mind up. I would just say a funny absurd lie, just a joke, and get the moment over with. When it was my turn to speak, I said "Hi, my name is (my real name here) and I sell celebrity underwear on the Internet."
Two heartbeats go by, dead silence. One young woman somewhere in the class lets out a loud nasal laugh. And pretty much not else. Then, mercifully, the moment passes and it's on to the next student.
Bless that one young woman with the snortle laugh, whoever and wherever you are.
God, I hate these icebreakers.
The underwear I purchased from your website don't fit me!
So @Rumbleforge buddy... you going tailoring?
You'll find me in Ashes, hawking my wares from the caboose of a caravan!
Step right up, ladies and gents! You sir, how would you like to slip into these officially licensed Krojak boxers?
Or you there fine lady, you won't believe the good night's sleep when you're sleeping in Diura panties between the sheets!
Today only, half off Nagash briefs! Decorated with real corpse bone and teeth!
Sorry pal, no refunds!
PS: I don't know how to give you points. Maybe we need a "sending good thoughts" button.

So many to choose from. I used to be painfully shy; still can be, sometimes. I count. Everything. Always. @Possum thinks I'm odd for it, but it's really one of the smaller components of my CDO (OCD, alphabetical). And cooking? Yeah, love to cook, and I'm currently bouncing between teaching myself Japanese and Moroccan. But I'm really leaning toward Vietnamese. Yum!
But I love to overshare...
Um, I live with three dogs and an ex-international rugby player.
Oooooh, you gave me the start of a good idea. I like that. Now to get my brain to figure out what it is thinking. Mmmmm burn.
I'm also broke lmao
