Here's my question..How many times did you cheat and put down a song other than what was on the diplay?

–noun
a cultural item that is transmitted by repetition in a manner analogous to the biological transmission of genes.

And I totally trust you did not cheat, because a lot of mine were eerily apropos, too.

Justin, this was fun and a little scary (see #21).
#14 almost made me cry when thinking of it in this context
#15 is hilarious, I don't think you could find a more inappropriate wedding song
Also, I'm pretty sure #12 would make me a "woman of the evening"

Shelly, your songs were great. But you had to cheat on #24, right? After the Six Feet Under series finale, that song generally gets me.

I swear #24 was no cheat, some of mine came out too good, a little weird.
