This is a queued entry and does not reflect my current status. A new post will appear each day this month, but to preserve novelty, the categories that I used won’t be listed publicly beforehand. If you’d like to use my template, let me know and I’ll privately send you the complete list of categories so that you can rearrange and swap them out to suit yourself.
If you don’t want to bother with the entire meme but still want to play, it is highly encouraged to list some of your own favorites for today’s category in the comments.
Bonus Day: Songs
Well, the month ends and so does the meme. It wasn't all I had hoped, but I still had fun talking about my favorites, and especially reading your comments.
Welcome to the bonus round: 31 of my favorite songs, and I found you a video for each one, containing my favorite version.
