TPBM
My niece Reina gets a kick out of driving me crazy, so yes, I qualify.TPBM thinks Otherwise is a silly name for a hard rock band.
And for the record, eyebrow shaving is just plain weird. It was weird when the main character did it in the movie Pink Floyd the Wall and it's weird when anyone else does it.
Otherwise sounds alright. I've heard weirder names for bands.TPBM is an expert at biting off more than they can chew.
I used to, it's a lesson learned.
TPBM likes to exchange roles with David Beckham (or Jennifer Lawrence) for a day.

It'd be nice to have his athleticism. That way, I could eat whatever I wanted and still be in shape. TPBM is old enough to remember playing The Oregon Trail on their computer with a B-drive floppy disk.
I don't know have any idea what half of that stuff means.TPBM is the person other people go to with their problems.
Yes. It's always been that way since I was quite young. The thing that makes me laugh is that even some of the people I don't particularly like, and I know don't like me, still come to me for help with their problems. Weird.TPBM has had a very pleasant surprise of some kind this week.
Yes, pleasant and wonderful :)

I dressed up like Luigi (Super Mario Brothers) in 2013, so yes, I do. Tons of fun!TPBM thinks hyperbole is an art form.
I am probably much more dramatic than I should be. My stories become more exaggerated every moment that I'm telling them.TPBM can fall asleep standing.
YesTPBM LIKES KING OF THE NERDS!!!!! AND IS WATCHING IT!!! AND WANTS ZACH TO LOSE THE NERD OFF.
Heard of it, but I've never watched it.TPBM is a reality TV junkie.
The only reality TV show I like is Cheaters. It probably doesn't make me a junkie.TPBM gets dizzy after eating a giant candy bar. Not just king size, but a giant candy bar.

TPBM is immortal!

Absolutely! It's so secret that even I don't know what it is yet.TPBM has a favorite way of procrastinating.
While I've participated in numerous ways of procrastinating, I have not determined a favorite, yet. TPBM will fix the Sochi Olympics...
Only if I can gamble on the winners of each competition. Then again, it's not much of a gamble if you know who's going to win. Hehe!TPBM likes the taste of Vicks cough syrup.

Yes. The Polar Blast is a bastard. TPBM always has a pen in their pocket...

It's not my favorite name that starts with M, but I like it.TPBM likes the sound of their own voice.
My voice is very gravelly and unfeminine, so no.TPBM had a strange childhood obsession they'd like to share about.
I was obsessed with the SNES videogame Chrono Trigger for the longest time when I was a kid. That, and the Dick Tracy cartoons from the 60's. Sometimes these obsessions of mine would intermingle. TPBM worries about sounding creepy when flirting with people.
Oh gosh. Absolutely. I'm an incredibly awkward person and I always worry about creeping out my crush.TPBM tends to like people who are polar opposites from them.
My best friend is pretty much the complete opposite of me so I think so, yeah.TPBM thinks shows on non-cable networks are more enthralling than HBO, Showtime, or just any of their cable channels.
I have Wave Broadband, so I wouldn't know the difference between a cable and non-cable channel.TPBM dislikes the flavor of alcoholic beverages.
I don't like to drink period. Correct.TPBM does not get and read a book solely because of the book's cover.
I like to do research on a novel before I pick it up and read it. Although I have to admit, the cover on the book I'm reading now, "The Sisters Brothers" by Patrick deWitt, is pretty damn cool with its double meaning. TPBM needs to get out of the house every once and a while.
Well, I can sometimes spend more than twelve hours t school, so just staying home is a relief most times. TPBM dresses in a way that annoys their parents.
I do, especially if my shirt has food stains on it and we're going out in public. I also annoy my sister-in-law Susan whenever I dress all in one color. TPBM sees the resemblence between Lady Gaga and Maria Brink.
Yes, now that you mention it.TPBM watched the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics.
