1. When I was a kid all my dolls were named Lucy. I have no idea why. To the best of my knowledge, I'd never met a Lucy or seen "I Love Lucy." This made things very confusing when communicating with my parents. Was I talking about Lucy the bear, Lucy the koala bear, Lucy the stuffed rabbit (who was clothed in a very masculine suit by the way), or Lucy the giant stuffed doll.
2. I love hummus when I eat it off of a dippable edible object. However, licking it off a spoon is repulsive. I also feel that way about peanut butter and frosting. Except in the case of frosting, licking it off a finger is acceptable.
3. I can identify mayonnaise in a compound sauce or dip by smell. My accuracy is something like 95%.
4. According to my students, I have multiple tattoos and piercings all over my body, I've been a play tester for the their favorite first person shooters, and I'm wanted by the CIA as a notorious hacker. None of these things are true. In most cases, I have no idea how these rumors start. I've even tried to set them straight from time to time, generally it just makes it worse.
5. I love coffee and can drink gallons of the stuff before the caffeine makes me feel even a minor buzz. However, a single cup of black tea has enough caffeine in it to make my hands tremble.
