From answers.com:
A unit of cultural information, such as a cultural practice or idea, that is transmitted verbally or by repeated action from one mind to another.
Online it's just all those things (surveys etc) that are spread from blog to blog.
Dunno how long it took me, not that long - 30mins maybe? But then I had to format it a little cuz my smiley codes messed it up lol.
Posted by: Clarissa on Tue July 11, 2006 at 17:48Pretty cool.
Tobias is right - you're not that weird. There were people that already told me I wasn't weird, and I felt a little disappointed then. 
But I am not normal. 
Being normal is boring. 
Yeah, I guess that's kinda what I thought when I was told I was pretty much normal. But being normal feels more peaceful, so it's not the worst.
