Also, Cindy, he's the face on the LJ userpic Betsy HP uses almost all the time. Not that I can remember her mentioning the name, but at least the face has been floating around for ages; maybe you just osmosed it from there somehow.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Dude, I just finished doing E's and my taxes (online, woot) and we're actually getting money BACK this year! For the first time since college! (Only about $30 once taxcut.com's fees are added in, but still. Excitement!)

KITT is for sale: [link]
Unfortunately "it cannot achieve the 300 mph speeds that KITT reached, soar 50 feet in the air or throw smoke bombs, [but] key features of the star car are intact. Perhaps most important, the red scanner light on the nose glows and makes a humming noise."
I loved KITT.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In the unfamiliar face test:
Overall, you got 58% correct
The average person with normal face recognition scores about 85% on this test. If you scored less than 75% on this test, this may indicate face recognition difficulties.
I seem to be near borderline again....

What is even happening?
Four Weddings and a Funeral?I saw it, but I don't remember him in it. I just went to his imdb page. I remember a lot of Mr. Bean ads, and they puzzled me at the time, because they seemed to present Mr. Bean as a character I should already know.
JZ, yeah, I just plucked the name out of the atmosphere. I looked, said, "Oh, it's that guy, Mr. Bean. Rowan Atkinson! No. Wait. Rowan Martin. No, that's Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In. Is it Rowan Atkinson? Oh what the hell."
Oh my, we have to do our taxes. I don't know why we wait so long every year. We're likely getting a refund. Sometimes, I hate us.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I got 89% on the familiar faces test. I'm scared to take the other one. I missed Condoleeeezzzzza Rice. I think it was because my brain froze in horror at the hideousness of the photo.

Did anyone take the car test?
Overall, you got 96% correct
The average person with normal object recognition scores about 85% on this test. Men and women score similarly on this test. If you scored less than 70% on this test, this may indicate difficulties with visual memory or object recognition.
I got two wrong. I'm somewhat annoyed I didn't get them all right.
Some of the cars were very easy. Some cars might be tricky for some, for example, the Lincoln Ton Car is very similar in profile to the Mercury Grand Marquis, as they share the same chassis .

I can only identify foreign cars, specifically expensive European cars (BMWs, Volvs, etc.). mr. flea mocks me regularly for this, and blames a snooty New England upbringing. But really, most cars look alike. To me.
