Daleks, Hookers and Bubble Gum: 5 Random Facts About Yours Truly

What do Daleks, hookers and bubble gum have in common?  Me, that’s what.  Today I shall reveal 5 completely random facts about myself.  Please try to contain your excitement and hold all applause and/or questions until the end.  *wink*

Ready?  Set?  Reveal!

1. My name is Alli, but you can call me nemesis…at least if you ask one girl.  I was hanging out with some old friends one night and, upon returning from getting a beer, was informed that one of the females who had been seated at our table (don’t ask me her name because I honestly don’t recall) announced to the group that I was “her nemesis.”  It was amusing then and I still find it amusing now.  Why am I her nemesis?   I don’t have a clue.  That is known only to her…but I must say it makes me feel kinda special.  Look at the people who have arch-enemies:  Doctor Who has the Daleks, Sherlock Holmes has Moriarty, Batman has The Joker…you see where I’m going with this?
2. I do NOT like giant squid.  Seriously.  They give me the heebeegeebees & I suspect they may, in fact, be evil…very evil.  They get in fights with sperm whales.  Sperm whales are not small.  Anything that is large enough to beat up a sperm whale, has a beak, 8 arms, 2 tentacles and is that smart I simply cannot trust.  Plain and simple.
3. A very out-of-place-at-a-punk-show heavily accented Italian gentleman in a linen suit and gold chains once tried to solicit me for prostitution.  I still find this very confusing.  I’m not sure what led him to think I was a hooker.  I had dreadlocks, was wearing a wife beater, a beat up pair of cut off army pants, striped socks and combat boots and was busy rocking out.  *shrug*  I still don’t get it…he was dragged out of the show and arrested.  I doubt going to jail was on his list of things to do while on vacation.
4. I collect Adam Ant memorabilia.  Compared to others in the ant community, my collection is paltry…it’s as weak as a sailor with scurvy…but what I do have I love.  (And yes, this photo is part of my collection. <3)
5. The sound of someone smacking gum makes me so ill I almost fly into a homicidal rage when I hear it.  And for all the people that think it’s hilarious to loudly smack their gum after they find out how ill it makes me:  you are so not  funny.  It’s been done by others before you and your name shall join theirs on my “Must Seek Revenge List.”   You have been warned.   *insert evil but playful grin here*
