Woo hoo! I'm the most interesting! And...uh...I'm normal? Okie dokie :)

Yeah, i saw that normal percentage and laughed. I'm curious how they're defining normal: percentage sharing that set of interests, or what.

And why are some interests italicized, and some not?

[fixx.livejournal.com]

When I look at it all the italicized ones are also emboldened and I am assuming those that actually cross over between dcseain's interes and the common interests of his friends, or it could be a yet smaller crossover, such as those which are common between his interests and mine. I'm not at all sure.

The italicized ones show up in my list of interests, as well as others'. The non-italicized ones show up in others of my friends' interests, but not my own.
