I tend to keep the boxes of the products I buy.

  I have kept a few boxes for storage purposes; the rest I recycle!  :angel:

I have gotten  pancakes and a glass of milk when going out for breakfast at the dinner every time we have gone since before my daughter was born

  The last time I remember really craving plain milk was in January 1991, the day of my first and last hangover.  :tard:

I used to play Music for the High School Radio... yet the only place we broadcasted was the cafeteria.

Most of the time when I brush my teeth I get hungry soon afterwards.  And when I eat something sweet I eat a bite of protein to take the sweet taste out of my mouth.

  My high school didn't have a radio station.  Also, our football team sucked.  (emo)

  I was about 9 when I figured out that   :santa:   is not real.  I felt very grown-up.

I am addicted to this a little: woordentest.
For those of you capable of a little bit of Dutch, it may be fun.
(That will be Lutra only I guess, unless Lit returns)

Have done the test before (two months ago, I think). My score then was 87%. Did it again p/m 10 minutes ago and..

'Je hebt 93% van de woorden juist herkend.
Je hebt 11% van de niet-bestaande woorden verkeerd herkend.
Dit geeft je een gecorrigeerde score van 93% - 11% = 82%.'

Um, which I consider quite a low score.

Conclusion: in both test I tend to think a couple of words are correct but they really aren't, thus. Well, frikkin' snifftoed fartsythia..

I get about the same scores as you do. Some words are clearly made up. And, they do miss existing words. I've reported a few back, with a link to the description going with it.
