I've been looking at some examples of personal statements and they're either cheesy, boring or both. I mean, do potential supervisors really care about childhood memories?

I wrote mine about how if they don't accept me I will likely spiral down the dark road of waging and will likely mug them in the street. Kind of threatening, but I think it gets the message across well. Basically let me into grad school, or else I'm fucked and might go lone wolf.

In my personal statement for professor positions, I just doxed the people in the department I applied to. I wrote, verbatim,
>I believe I would be a good fit for your department. In fact, I've already taken the Liberty of figuring out where professor X lives [address]. I do look forward to working together with you all. :)
