What’s in your DNA? #3
by Dr. Hsien-Hsien Lei
Posted May 20, 2007 in In Your DNA
This weekend, the hatred of vacuuming and laundry has been activated in my DNA. What are you up to?
From Breath Space:
…somewhere in my DNA must be a cardboard gene. Can one have PTSD from the sounds of packing tape and moving too much?
From Bizzyville:
In fact, I come directly from a line of three generations of Kennedy-philes which includes my mother and my Grandmother. Between the three of us, we pretty much know everything there is to know about the Kennedys. Knowledge about the Kennedys is actually encoded in my DNA.
From Weekends Off:
Grandpa was a prankster and I spent a great deal of time with him and so the love of a good prank is in my DNA.

Haha, funny you should post this. Just yesterday, I was talking about how I’d been having this strong desire to move to Arizona. Since I was born, raised, and still live in West Virginia, it’s difficult for me to imagine living anywhere (especially so far away from “home”!) where the mountains are considered a way to increase property value as marketing it was “real estate with a view,” rather than just part of everyday scenery.
Anyway, I found out that several family members on my father’s side live in Arizona, and that his own father spent time out there for the health of his lungs.
I said, “OH, OK! So maybe that’s why it’s been in my mind so much lately!”
Alicia, It’s either your DNA or your supernatural psychic connection. WooOOooo.
Oh, hatred - nay, loathing - of washing my car is firmly embedded in my DNA. It confirms my suspicion that I am actually adopted, because my parents do not suffer from this car washing affliction.
LOL, Sara. If that’s the case, perhaps I’m adopted as well because I have a mutated cooking gene.
