Give us a fun fact about yourself

Back to General Discussion

Uh, I'll go first. I can't say which stage of my life it was, but for about two years I believed I had an extra surname (side note: in my country it's normal to have more than one surname), so on my school documents I used to write: Nathaniel blah blah blah blah, Olixás De Oliveira. I felt desolate when I found out it was something I'd made up myself or had simply got confused about.

I've been with my partner since middle school and that feels like a fairy tale 

Between the two of us, my wife and I have met Donald Trump (when he was still a Democrat), anchorman Peter Jennings (RIP), reporters Tony Guida and Art MacFarland, entertainment reporter Gene Shalit (RIP), actor Nick Nolte, NYC Mayor David Dinkins (RIP), wrestler Ric Flair, musician Najee, singers Freddie Jackson, Gladys Knight, and Michael Bivens, and comics artist/writer George Perez (RIP).

Breakdown:

  • Trump: wife
  • Jennings: me
  • Guida: me
  • MacFarland: wife
  • Shalit: me
  • Nolte: me, wife
  • Dinkins: me
  • Flair: me, wife
  • Najee: me, wife
  • Jackson: me, wife
  • Knight: wife
  • Bivens: wife
  • Perez: me

My mom watched police TV shows (Like CSI miami or The Law and Order) when she was pregnant with me, and now those kinds of shows are my favorites!
