More of the same.
When you're following an angel, does it mean you have to throw your body off a building?
I was recalling meme (-inspired) things I have been exposed to in the blogosphere. There was one about reaching for the closest book to hand, turning to a page and writing a sentence from it. The rules haven't stuck in my memory so I guess it was a less successful meme. Also, it seems rather pointless; it might randomly inspire somebody else but if there is nothing in it for me why would I perpetuate it.
A more successful meme (based on my "I can recall it" test, at least) is where you list ten things you have done which you don't think anybody who reads your blog has done. This has an aspect of feedback to it when readers comment about the items which you were mistaken about or otherwise provoked a response.
I could only think of one thing before I had to go back to work:
1. Kicked chips of rock off Stonehenge.

I couldn't think of anything I have done that nobody else (who reads or may read my blog) has done too - either with me or before or after me.
Possibly not everyone has backpacked around China on their own; but I'm fairly sure that if you've been to the Great Wall at BaDaLing, you've carved your name into it like I have.
My life experiences are fairly standard, I think!

It's not a test. List "possibly not everyone" things and find out who actually has done them when they respond. You may find you have something in common with somebody you never suspected.
How about "flew the Jolly Roger above my house" or "sold a painting"?

Flew the jolly roger, granted.
I know lots of people (including Gavin, Jen) who have sold artwork. I will try it and see!
