5 Facts About Me

It's quite funny that in the last few months I have been treated like ChatGPT more than once. Some people use ChatGPT, some people apparently are ChatGPT. So I thought I would do a list of five things about myself as a person to let you all know that I am in fact, a human being. If my Cloud Atlas entry for the 'I Wrote This' challenge didn't do it for you, I like to think that this will give you more context.

1. My favourite item is my Kindle

Obviously, I'm always bragging about Kindle deals and things I have found on Kindle for free or less money than usual. My favourite item ever is probably my Kindle because it saves me having to lug around actual books. The lugging avoidance is quite important and fact #2 should show you why.

2. I'm short and I don't like it

Scraping in at about 5ft 2 (but according to some doctors I am 5ft 1 - I'm not sure whether I should be measured with an iPhone though - how accurate is it really?), I am vertically challenged. I tend to wear boots with small platforms to get up to about 5ft 4 or 5ft 5, I'm really not sure how big the platforms on your usual Timberlands are, but those are the shoes I wear to make myself taller.

3. I love podcasts

I am probably nearly always listening to a podcast if I'm by myself. From horror stories on NoSleep, to my favourite LiteratureAndHistory.com, BBC Radio 4's In Our Time and even the Conspiracy Theories podcast. I love listening to stories and analysis as much as I love reading it. Why? Well, it can be quite immersive and whilst writing, I can't really think of a better thing to listen to.

4. My favourite food is sushi (controversial)

I have recently come across threads of 'overrated food' and many of the answers say sushi. I am sorry but that is wrong. I will not be accepting that when ramen is literally right there. I have no idea why I added this one in, I think I'm kind of just begging to be thought of as an actual person at this point. But honestly, if you have never had nice sushi, you are missing out.

5. Croissants gross me out

I don't know why but the whole deal tastes like you're eating someone who has physically blown up your food through a straw. It's pretty much me with any flaky pastry. It disgusts me and it's kind of sad. For those of you from England like myself, you will notice that this flaky pastry disgust also includes the sausage roll. I like sausages, but not the flaky pastry. I'm sorry but I don't think anyone could pay me enough money to eat a croissant. Flaky pastry might be gross to me, but a croissant being shaped like a snail and having that thin multi-layered texture makes me feels like I'm eating lots of crepe paper.

Conclusion

This was just meant to be a bit of fun. I hope you have realised that I am not, in fact, a robot - if that wasn't clear already.
