Ahh, lunchtime. The time to relax by doing pointless things until its time to do real work again. Y’know, I’m convinced that memes get generated at some constant rate; thus, they backed up during GLJO’05 (Great LJ Outage ’05), and so we’re all getting caught up. So, for our second lunchtime meme, we have a bowl of alphabet soup, prepared by tuluum<\/a> and patgund<\/a>, modified for guys based on suggestions from ckgriffin<\/a>:<\/p>\n


\nA – Accent: None that I know off, perhaps “Los Angeles”, if there is one.
\nBF<\/sub> – Bra size: N\/A. What would be a good “B” question for guys answering this?<\/strike>
\nBM<\/sub> – Boxers or Briefs: Boxers.
\nC – Chore you hate: Putting the sorted and folded laundry away.

\nN2<\/sub> – Number of apples you’ve eaten: too many to count.
\nO – Overnight hospital stays: None that I remember.
