I would also like to note that I don't think its a secret that you drive around with the bass bumpin. I can picture you casually looking around making sure there are no gangsters nearby before you flip the switch.

There was a simliar meme going around flickr, it was 16 things and you had to post a self-portrait. All of the posts that I read on there had much more in-depth information. It could be the shorter survey, the trust of the artistic community or the fact of the much smaller audience. The difference was huge for such a similar exercise. (yes I have a flickr, and I posted 16 things there. It's visible to my flickr friends only. If you were my friend on flickr you could see it. I would not post the same info in Facebook.)

Interesting how it is not only ubiquitous on FB, but is now making the leap over to quite a few blogs. Your #9 is definitely one I should have included. I finally got sucked into this today as well.
