- I have no reflection in mirrors, nor do I show up in photographs.
- I am the best-selling author of several books in the "Dummies" series, most notably "Ventroliquism for Dummies".
- I also wrote last year's top non-fiction book, "The Idiot's Guide to Managing Risk With Collateralized Mortgage Obligations". Sorry about that.
- Before they turn out the lights, monsters check under the bed for me.
- My hobby is annoying mathematicians. I like to divide by zero, factor prime numbers, and resolve the Axiom of Choice, just for the looks on their faces.
- I understand the difference between parody and satire, and furthermore I can explain it in eight words.
- I am the least musically talented person you have ever met. The last time I took part in a jam session, they took the tambourine away from me for playing it out of key.
- I know that Jesus loves me, but I just like him as a friend. So it's awkward.
- My Indian name is "Picked Last For Sports".
- I am illegal in thirteen states, including all the ones that begin with A.
- I'm not really as short as I look, I'm just moving really fast relative to you. (If you understand this, I silently applaud you.)
- When I was a child, I was the next door kid's imaginary friend.
- In the sitcom of life, I am your wacky neighbor.
