The information is already here

[redbird]

It seems like half the people on my friends list are asking people to "tell me something about yourself."

I don't feel like typing "I don't like peanut butter" fifty times, or coming up with fifty random facts, ideally things you won't all know already. I've made 1409 LJ entries; that ought to be enough to give people some information about me.

I'd really intended that for people I *didn't* know--though looking at it, I see I didn't word it as carefully as I could.

I don't like peanut butter either, but we have a squeeze-tube of it in the house now as a treat for the dog.

I hear you. I think I am about out of new trivia.

*snerk* Very good point, dittoed over here. I talk about myself too much already; if try to come up with something nobody knows about me, I usually have to sit there vacantly for five-ten minutes before saying something utterly lame, like, I dunno, "I once accidentally grabbed a nettle going creek-climbing one time."

I'm glad you did type at least once that you don't like peanut butter. I feel like less of a freak.

Unrelated to peanut butter, but a fact about me that redbird didn't know is that I find your userpic really disturbing.

Goody gumdrops!

Hey, that makes three of us!

But anyway. I participated in the meme because I thought the avalanche of answers would be amusing, and it was. But, like anything else, there's no *obligation* to it.

Aside from the peanut butter thing, this comment speaks for me as well.

I feel pretty much the same way about that request.

I don't like peanut butter either. But I'm very fond of peanuts.

I am permitted to consume neither, alas.
