Post a weird fact about yourself...... It can be anything. I'm still trying to figure out one about me but I will sooner or later..........;)

My personal record for bathing whilst wearing my socks is 7m 31s. It was set in 1990.

AE.

I am actually made of butter, not flesh and bones like the rest of you.

.. eww. BAF is fattening...

Anywho, I once broke my clavicle while playing (American) football, and scored two touchdowns afterwards.

I once set myself on fire with gasoline and no safety measures.

I practice Danzón.

And I am worth 2K monies.

Other weird (and real) facts about me are that I have ankyloglossia (a too short lingual frenulum), meaning I can't poke my tongue out normally. Also, the normal angle of my feet in a relaxed position is angled about 30 degrees outward.

My feet are angled slightly inward. Doctor once told me it's called "Pigeon Feet". I don't really have any problems caused by it though.

EDIT: Changed "Chicken Feet" to "Pigeon Feet"

I haven't measured any angles, but my feet point outwards too.
I also have a syndrome! \o/

I once shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.

I can't aim a pistol with my glasses on (can't focus on the front sight). I've never finished writing a game, and I've been programming for years... though that probably wouldn't be considered uncommon around here .

I play the guitar in a heavy metal band.

I once had this disease:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alopecia
It went away however after I stopped stressing out.

I hate feet... Most people have ugly feet (men in particular).
I also never use public bathrooms, but I don't think that's too weird. I just can't deal with all the smells and the dirt.

I can destroy planets with just one finger and I train my self like a mad man.

My feet point outward as well. It's easy to tell my footprints apart from others because of it.

Anyway, my right index finger is slightly shorter than my left index finger because I nearly cut off the tip of it when I was a kid. And I have this weird dent on the back of my head I assume is not even normal.

I have what I consider to be an "obsessive-compulsion". It is not medically confirmed, however.

For example, my family used to have a woodstove with an automatic damper. To 'rev' it, or get it burning well, we would open the ashpan door to allow more air to be pulled in. Whenever I was the last one awake I would check it for the night, go up to bed, lay there for 5 minutes and wonder if I closed the door or that the woodstove was generally safe for the night... And for the sake of not waking up in a fiery blaze, I would go check it again, only to confirm my competence in checking it the first time.

This same "compulsion" as I think of it has led me to reformat an operating system installation days after the original install because a single application failed to install and I'm not sure if ALL of the changes made during the installation were backed out... The system feels unpure to me and it drives me to start from scratch...

I could give a million examples...

EDIT

I can second the public washroom thing. There are rules to be followed in the mens' room, such as "splash-zones" and planned retreat paths (you know, in case a 400 lb ex-con comes in after you straight from a prison release), and many public washrooms just assume guys are comfortable sharing the experiences in them by making urinals 1/2" apart or putting urinals directly beside stalls/sinks... I also do not like washrooms that are not sound proof... When you can hear women in the next room that is a very discomforting thing when you're doing your "business"...

I would appreciate public washrooms designed so that each stall/urinal was contained in a lockable, sound-proof enclosure...

In any case, I generally only use public washrooms when I have to - and usually only when they are otherwise empty.

I'm at GDC.

I can move my eyes independently. (can't go outside of parallel like a lizard, though)

Uh... I don't like pizza...

The end?

Never attended a public or private school. Unfortuantely, that's about as weird as I get

I see dead people.

That's the weirdest thing ever!, thread over.

Now you are just making things up.

I just recently hadn't bathed in a month.

I can't think of anything unusual about me. I'm perfectly normal. What I don't understand though, is why everyone else is so weird. I mean I don't know one single normal person in the whole world. Everyone is just so... I don't know... weird.

We are all special, and you aren't.

I can watch The Bold and the Beautiful five minutes without puking.

I have spent over $3,500 on my airsoft gear. It may not be weird but sure is depressing.

I did notice something strange when I logged in to A.cc today.

My feet also point inwards. My Dad calls it Pigeon Foot.

bamccaig, that sounds more like worrying than Obsessive Compulsive

I'm often surfing on the internet at 300km/h. Oh yeah and I'm paid for that.

You need help. All of you.

Especially you, though it might be hard to find volunteers to help you out.

The drills at quite a number of militaries place the feet at 45 degree angle and afterwards that kind of sticks, but you're a natural talent!

Edit: I hate March. I really do. March is the time when bad shit goes down.

Beware the ides of March!

A roughly horizontal dent on the back at the base of the skull just before it meets the spine? If so then I have that too, though at least my last two girlfriends (i.e. since I noticed it) have thought it was odd. So maybe it's uncommon but within recognised bounds?

When I was 11, I almost died sucked by the filtration of my uncle swimming pool.
I always have the scars :-O

Is it just me or is Gull's Frenglish really getting worse every day?

Everything in my life is opposite the way it should be, so I'm always keeping the opposite thing in mind when stuff happens so I can take advantage of the situation.

Oh, and I can hear electricity... which sucks... IT'S FREAKING EVERYWHERE! explodes

That is not a weird fact about you. I am going to tell you what is the weird fact about you: you are sour without knowing why

I am an alien from Alpha Centauri looking forward to taking over your puny world.

No, wait - actually my face is gray because I don't sleep too well . But I'm still getting ready to take over the world.

The damn Alpha Centaurians will have to take it from us Martians first. We've spent nearly a century making these humans believe we don't exist, all the while feeding them technologies that release more and more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and thus the fools are making their own atmosphere hospitable to us! Ah ha ha ha ha!

By the way, does anyone know what word we should use for terraforming when we're making it more like glorious Mars? We cannot waste our time with the weakling humans' languages to bother finding out.

Whenever I enter a (new) building (i.e., one that I've never been in), I instinctly make a map in my mind with security camera coverage, where and how many guards are standing, plus the 5 best ways to leave in case of emergency.

And before you ask, I started this before I watched "Bourne's identity".

I want to get into airsoft. I'm not sure if it's considered 'legal' in Canada though. I've heard it is a border-line topic.

Sometimes it would fit to also call it paranoia, I guess. I call it a compulsion because it's not always something I'm 'afraid' of. For example, reformatting the operating system isn't because I'm afraid something is going to fail, etc., etc. The thought of having possibly orphaned data in my system really does just feel 'unpure'. The only reason I'm compelled to reformat is because it is no longer in my mind 'flawless'. Emphasis on "in my mind" because the average person would consider something to be fine and I would still be unsatisfied with it.

I will try to think of more fitting examples and reply back later...

More weirdness: when I was young and everything was quiet I swear I could hear whispers...

Another weird thing about me is that I like both Eminem and Shania Twain music... I have 5 and 4 cds, respectively, of each.

The dent is here:
{"name":"591455","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/b\/8\/b834ac31fe9ce97478f123e2d06da67b.gif","w":400,"h":334,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/b\/8\/b834ac31fe9ce97478f123e2d06da67b"}

Best picture I could find going through only 9 pages of a Google image search. And I suck at drawing arrows it seems.

MiquelFire: My cranium is flat at almost that exact spot!

Everybody's is. Even that 3D image.

Kris, can you really hear electricity? That must be cool. Although, it would probably suck after a while. How do you hear it? Can you hear electromagnetic waves?

If you can find an indent in that spot that you can rest the tip of your finger in, and when pressing down, moving it in any direction you find an 'uphill battle' for movement from that spot, then I guess this dent I feel is normal.

Not electricity, electronics.

You can hear a slight humming noise, very high-pitch, coming from electronics. I can hear some of it, like when someone turns on a TV without playing anything.

I have five birds as pets, and a theory about time-space travel.

I've got a crease on the top of my head that is about 3mm deep.
I got it when I was running down the stairs and wanted to jump the last half of it. Too bad ceiling was lower than I thought.

My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents.

Hmmm.. Let's see!

For a man, I have beautiful feet.

I can do a form of finger clicking at very fast speeds.

When I was younger I used to keep getting and giving electric shocks all the time. I once put a static charge into a floppy disk drive when I went to eject a disk and the light lit up and the drive whirred for a few seconds.

I have tight hamstrings, but I am pretty flexible in spinal twists, bends and using my hip flexors.

I can look in different directions with each eye at will.

I have a strange soft piece above my left eye, where there should be hard skull bone. Like cartilage.

Ah Ha! I finally thought of something. I can here frequencies that other people can't (like some of you people). Some frequencies that I here can be 10 times louder than a normal person would here them (figured all this out because I got my hearing tested). Like car brakes. When I here a squeaky car brake, it feels like somebody is stabbing my ears with a needle. Or electronics.

I'm slightly red colorblind in my left eye. Its not usually noticeable throughout the day since I guess the right eye makes up for it but right when I wake up if I close one eye and then change to the other it is very noticeable. Its sort of fun to see things in two different ways.

I'm a cheerleader AND I can self-regenerate...

I try to use correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling in my posts. Quite a few people do this, but there are so many who don't!

My psychiatrist has convinced me I am NOT one of the invading Martians. Excuse me, I have to go write a letter to Bush to warn him of the invading Martians.

Richard Phipps: THAT is why we don't talk about you.

I remembered something else; I can hear when a television is on nearby, regardless of whether the sound itself is muted. It's a sort of high-pithced "buzz", though it's not really sound. I'm not sure if this is actually unusual or not, though?

Can't everybody?

I can. Some people can't. It's just a high-pitched sound that TVs make. Not including LCD monitors though...

I can't hear it. Of course after multiple ear infections and two reconstructive ear surgeries, I'm just glad I can hear anything.

I can hear when a TV is on. It's really annoying! Just one of the reasons I don't watch TV (on a TV) anymore.

Oh, and one time I was walking around inside The Sharper Image (a store). They had a rat repellent of some sorts that generated a high pitched noise. I was able to hear the noise and it drove me insane. Does that make me a rat?

I am like this also. In fact I am the only person I know that uses correct spelling and grammar in instant messangers like MSN as well.

It's not. It just means you haven't lost the higher frequencies of your hearing yet.

It's driven me nuts a couple of times these last couple of weeks (sitting in electronics labs full of old CRTs = pain)...

I can spell homophones correctly.

I suppose I should make a quick list of things I can hear on a regular basis:

Street Lights, Incandescent Lights (barely), Fluorescent Lights, CRT Monitors (VERY well), LCD Monitors (barely), dimmer switches (the closer to off, the louder they are), Neon Lights (VERY well), Toasters, Power/Telephone Lines, Power Transformers (VERY well).

Also, if I turn my back to a CRT monitor, I can tell what colours are being displayed by the tone I hear. If the tone sounds flat, the colours are mostly uniform. If the tone is distorted, there's a lot of colour differences. (Like white text on a black screen.) Blue guns sound the highest pitched to me, followed by red, then green. I hear a white screen the best and a black screen the worst.

I think it's not the electricity I hear, but rather electrical resistance. The more fluctuations in power a device has, or the more power is being resisted, the easier it is for me to hear it.

And I almost forgot. I have pointed ears. (Not Vulcan ears, but rather, there are specks of extra cartilage protruding horizontally from each of my ears, thus making the edges look a little rugged.)

--- Kris Asick (Gemini)

All of these contain intrinsically noisy (and yes, I'm talking about acoustic, not electrical, noise) transformers or ballasts.

And these (transformers in particular) have a tendency to give off the regular old 50 (or 60, depending on where you live) Hz hum due to magnetostriction.

This is an artefact of the dimmers' switching.

Also a switching noise issue, but at a much higher frequency (my CRT sometimes goes into noise mode and does that as well - Wikipedia and Slashdot have distinctive noises ).

... I'm sorry, but that's just nonsense.

I can spell Kryszoff Klutzeck's name right. Um... no, I can't.

In my best times, I could finish the SNES version of Street Fighter II in little over 11 minutes, without being hit.

I have my period.

MY BRAIN! IT BURNS! IT BURNSSSS! gurgle

...

Menstruating is not weird. It's perfectly natural!

ooohhh! I would love to play against you. Who is your character?

I was often Ken, but during College, I found out I could beat my roommate best with Chun-Li or Guile.

I can hear all the ones you marked as "hear well" as well as most of the ones you can hear regularly. I can hear different pitches from CRTs based off the colors on the screen but I never figured out the pattern to it, good to know! (well ok only kind of good to know)

... Hence why we think women are weird.

I know, I just don't want to hear about it, particularly form manjula.

I've become nicer to internets.

I feel your pain, sistah.

Umm, weird(ish) fact: I started to grow breasts when I was young. It lasted a few months, and can occur in young males.

Why not?

I would never date a man who didn't accept and embrace the period.

Embrace? Yeauch. That conjures up some pretty gross images. Accept it, yes, but I don't particularly want to touch it.

By embracing it, I meant that if anything, a man should help a woman feel good about her period. That can be done emotionally or physically (yes - there are men who would have sex with a menstruating woman gasp).
Some men are disgusted by the period, and frankly I find that disgusting.

Would you enjoy the site of a penis if you knew it bled red tissue once a month?

When I first read that, I took it that you mean any man finding the physical result of a period disgusting.

But I now think you mean men who find the notion of a period disgusting, as though it should not be that way.

This hails the origins of the drink "a Bloody Mary"

Menstuation is a fact of life for most women. Men should accept that. Period. (Oh, what a delightfully bad pun )

I am not asking men to enjoy something unnatural. But more to the point, I am not saying that men should even enjoy the period, they should just embrace it. How? Well the answer is in my previous post. You guys know what you're in for from the get go... Why reject something that is essential to womanhood?
You are asking me if I would enjoy something unnatural. To answer your question, I wouldn't enjoy it because I'd be extremely worried.

Volcanoes, tornadoes, hurricanes and floods are are natural, should we enjoy those as well?

Accept it, of course, it would be quite foolish to try to deny the unavoidable truth, but why would you want someone to embrace and enjoy the fact that you, as it was so eloquently put, "bled red tissue once a month"? It is basically equivalent to asking someone to embrace and enjoy feces because it is natural. Yes, it is a natural and unavoidable process, but it is one of those processes which just about everyone would be happier if life could go on without it in some magical way.

I've had insomnia for about 10 years. Is that weird? But then, insomnia seems to be common among McCallums.

Some of the best exams I've ever written were done on three hours' sleep. I may not have been able to read the questions, but by God! did I ever know the answers.;D

bamccaig: Yes, that's compulsive behaviour. From the wikipedia:

Hehehe, that's completely off topic. I am specifically talking about womanhood and women's sexuality.

AGAIN, I was talking about womanhood and women's sexuality. I didn't say that you should enjoy everything that is natural, from pimples to feces. I was saying that you should embrace the period (in other words, make the woman feel good about her period) because it is a painful yet meaningful thing we have to experience on a monthly basis.

It seems that you are under the impression that I think that men should enjoy the period. I will have to repeat myself yet again:

Guys... Read my posts properly. I feel like I'm at work right now, with all the repeating I have to do. I work with kindergarteners by the way.

That comes as no surprise given the level of immaturity some geeks can display...:-X. I have a project manager like that - repeat, repeat, repeat, and STILL it doesn't sink in with him.

You're using embrace in a figurative way, whereas others here have taken it in a literal and physical sense.

[edit]
Where's Phippsy asking for photos?
[/edit]

Or they are just guys too geeky and wrapped up in themselves to ever get a girlfriend.

One of the earlier conversations I had with my wife back when we we're "just dating," was her drawing a table of times I should be extra careful what I say around her to times where I should be as close as possible if I wanted to enjoy the finer points of "dating". Since then, I have embraced the period.

since we're on the topic of sex and things that people should not be disgusted about: I am uncircumcised.

I am covered in moss because I haven't been under the sunlight since 1998. Little red mushrooms with white dots have grown on the moss, and the mushrooms have worms and cockroaches all over them. Whenever I feel hungry, I eat either a mushroom, a cockroach or a worm. I never eat the moss because it would be disgusting.

Sounds like the inside of my refrigerator.

I don't embrace the period. Oh and you'd probably date me. Looks like your logic has failed

My sense of smell is very strong, and I can feel various smells others can't. Though sometimes nifty, most of the time, this is an annoyance, as some of the stuff people use to smell "nice", being designed for the noses of the majority, emitts stenches that they don't feel, but I do. Some deodorant, for example, smells about as nice as a nasty fart. (and not all too differently, no less) Not only that, but walk into a room where it has been sprayed or someone with it "well-applied" is or has recently been, and it won't be long before a bit of the stench sticks to your clothes, following you for some time.

Masses of people are often absolutely bloody disgusting. After some time, the stench gets stuck in your throat and you can "taste" it until you eat or drink something.

edit2:

But it is a reason for celebration. It means you mastered another level without knocking her up. When she hits menopause wihout ever having had children, you will be remembered forever in the hall of fame of the Ovulation Dodging game.

'uncircumcised' , even if I understand the term, does not seem to be a valid word. Do you mean that you are not circumcised ? As it is natural for all human to be as you I do not see the problem.

I am circumcised, and I think it is better. Less sensitive, more hygienic. Some will try to tell that it is looking better/worse than the natural penis. I do not care.

You know , the most important thing is not the size of the wand, but the magic it can produce ;-p

Now to the period part:

Women always complain about the fact they are having there period, but the day they do not have it anymore they already continue complaining ;-p

I can figure out the guitar chords to a song I've never heard, just by looking at the melody notes, not playing or humming the melody.

lolololol @ self-centred creatures

Girl makes post about being a girl on a programming website.

Girl gets responses from lonely programmer males.

All the lonely internet programmers males bite the attention wanting female posts.

Really ladies, what did you expect.

Menstruating isn't weird, but most of the people on this forum communicating with a female human is.

Perhaps they were thinking there is comprehensive, sensible and intelligent people in a.cc forums.

Yeah, weird

Do not worry ladies ! The world is not full of a.cc members ! ( sometimes I doubt ;-p )

... yet.

Considering the average a.cc user breeding rate I doubt it would ever happen

I have a son, who is a member of a.cc.

Gagrl ! The invasion has already start ;-p

- I can spit like a snake - directly from my salivary glands, about a meter and a half.

I've stopped doing this in the neck on the person in front of me on the bus, now, but sometimes I feel the need to start fulfilling my destiny again..

- I can ride a one-wheeled bike

- I will be killed by an old woman with a shawl, riding a bike with a wicker basket

- While not understanding women, I insist on treating them as equals, which sometimes has placed me in severe risk of bodily harm

I eat loads of food and don't gain weight. I have a lot of dreams about buying a hole pile of stuff from my bakery where I grow up but I never get to eat any of it before the dream ends. I have that dream a lot. Finishing stf2 in 11 min (with out getting hit) now that got to be on easy mode.

I also had a dream long ago that i killed a skinny girl. i woke up as soon as i saw the blood on me. then i realize it was just her period i was dreaming about. i still have a phobia dealing with girls under 135lb.

edit: also when i was younger i had another dream that use to scare the crap out of me it was about the holes that form in a pancake you your cooking it.

I can about 15 cookies, 20 reeses miniatures, 5 blueberry muffins and drink 6 sodas and 5 grape juices every day and not gain weight, although if I do that too much I'll die skinny at 27, so I try to eat a little less than that.

Once I ate thirty tacos in two hours. It was during an eating competition, and I lost to a girl!

Another somewhat weird fact about me is that I can tolerate cold quite well. I changed to longer biking pants only after it started snowing and temperature fell below 0C

Same here. I eat way more than most people, have relatively little physical exercise but still have no fat. My body fat percentage was around 9% last time it was measured, normal should be 12-19%, only athletes have so little fat as I do

My regular diet:
1) chocolate bar in the morning before going to work (~100-150g)
2) big pizza or steak for lunch.
3) big hot meal for dinner

I buy my lunch from shop so I know exactly how much it weighs. Usually the total weight of the stuff is in range of 400-700g, excluding sweets and juice.

During the day I usually drink about 2-3L of juice with very high amount of sugar in it and eat a few chocolate bars and other sweets.

My entire exercise consists of riding to work and back with my bike, 5+5km five times a week. During the last three years my weight have staid constant at 65kg (184cm height). One year I had no physical exersice what so ever and same diet but still my weight didn't change.

i can do better then that not the fake taco bell ones though I eat the real tacos that you get from the Mexican taco van that drive to every neighborhood and makes fresh tacos and gives you a bag of peppers on the side

piccolo: I live in Mexico. When I say "tacos" I mean real Mexican tacos, not fast food.

dam it now your making me hungry.

Can you prove that the Mexican tacos are real? What if Mexico is just a figment of my imagination? Wait... what if I'm just a figment of Mexico's imagination?!?!?!?! How do I know I exist? I feel like my whole life is a dream! Whose dream? Is it a good one? Well, I'm in it, so probably not... well, at least the invading Matians are only a dream too. Excuse me, I have to go eat some tapioca pudding and bouce off the wonderful rubber walls these nice strangers provided me with.

I am too! Sadly, I won't have lunch for two more hours.

If I eat 1lb I gain 2.

You all suck.

You have the secret to stop hunger in Africa!

Nobody's doin' any tests on me, 'cus I'm The Blob!

I've never hit a woman or swore at one. Is that weird?

Just gonna let millions starve then, huh? I'm so disgusted, I'm leaving for 30mins. Okay, I actually have to go to lunch.

The Blob does not care about your disgust! Gimme your luuuuuunch!

me nether. thats the way i was raised but know a days they want to be treated as equals so you cant say I'm not going to hit you because your female. that sexes. you have to say im not going to hit you because your weaker then me.

Wouldn't that be discriminating?

I've hit a girl once, she was my sister and she earned it. I was around five and she was twice my age and teased me quite a bit

I've hit a girl, but she was my sparring partner atm in Tae Kwon Do.

Hm, I can't think of any weird facts about me but that is not supposed to mean that I think there are none.

Ok, simply trying to clarify my previous statements, most of manjula's posts are inexplicably accompanied by disturbing mental images. Maybe because of her avatar.

I would not have the guts to do it. i would surely be holding back i even hold back on some guys. i only feel good fighting some one bigger then myself. i hope the girl you was spare with wore a chest guard. imagen punching a breast so hard that the sides riped and the tissue leaked out. or so hard that the breast tissue got move to th under arm and back area.

Don't worry, she kicked my arse.

piccolo, you present some distubingly disturbed images. And I thought I was crazy. Well, the man in the white lab coat says I have "Uncontrollable rage coupled with paranoid fantasies and delusions of grandeur" but don't worry about him, I know he's just out to get me because I'm the only one who nows how to stop the Martians that are invading through our dreams.

They are not very durable. It just like getting hit in your chest if you don't tense for impact. I think its even worst be even if we don't tense our tissue is so tightly packed that alone can defend against blows. But breast have so much play in them.

You seem to have made a study of breasts. I tried that once, but the judge said scientific inquiry could not excuse my actions.

Don't you mean you have to play so much with breasts...

I CAN'T HELP IT!

Nah, I'd never date you. You come off as young and immature. Really, you do.

Some stuff about me:
- I've got eye surgery on my left eye.
- I've jumped out of a perfectly working airplane while in the air twice.
- I ordered a correspondence course in Esperanto but haven't had enough time yet to dig into it.
- I prefer silence over performance when it comes to computers as I seldom play games.
- I couldn't care less about fashion or buying the "right" brands when it comes to clothing.
- I practiced Bujinkan (a martial art) for a couple of years. But not any more and I miss it a bit.
- I eat fast food far too often.
- I live here (click on "Satellitbild" for a photograph).
- I'm allergic to furry animals.

I grew piccolo in a petri dish.

That would explain a lot.

Yes. Yes it would.

I have voluntary bipolar nazagma (not sure of the spelling), the ability to shake one's eyes rapidly.

Nystagmus?

I never thought that was unusual, I can do it too (voluntarily).

I think I can do what you are saying voluntarily. My eye twitches really fast, along with my eyelid, when I move the muscles a certain way.

Interesting fact about me: I don't find the period weird. It's basically the female wet dream! In a bloodier way ...

I like the taste of blood. Whenever I get a cut I lick it.
However, it has to be my blood (50/50 alcohol and blood).

Notice my use of the word "think"... that's just a guess, specifically because of the way dimmer switches sound to me when I change their setting.

One other weird fact about me: I can pick out any framerate from 0 to 100 on a monitor refreshing fast enough to handle that. (100 and 120 look the same to me, but 90 and 100 don't, so I figure 100's my limit. 120 is my monitor's limit.)

I train sprinting 6 times a week, is it weird?

Something a bit more particular is that i'm able to perceive if there are objects around my head (let's say in a 0.5m radius) with my eyes closed.
I think it's a mix of audio and heat distortion... and i'm pretty sure it has something to do with the fact that when i was little i run and smashed my face onto a column i didn't see (it was too dark)

I can always tell if someone is uncomfortable at a party.

I do that a lot. Involuntarily when I yawn, it just comes flying out...

That's a handy excuse. Do uou use it often for various reasons?

Well i have a terrible vision in the dark, i see everything much darker than it is, i usually just see everything black at night.
So yes, i use it to avoid hitting walls

You should visit an optician if you haven't already. Bad night vision is one of the first signs that you need glasses.

Another two, I see. I eat plenty with little dietary regards and eat/drink a lot of sugary stuff, spending much, much time in front of my computer, and am slightly underweight. (by my own estimate; nothing beyond that to go by) Seems nerds are often either very skinny or very fat. I'm young, though, so maybe my seemingly very high metabolism will slow down in a couple of years. Though I hope not.

And that comment about pizza made me hungry. Luckily, I'll have some this evening.

Then read Ranto before you do.

With all the bleeding I've had in my mouth, I've found that a small amount of blood tastes somewhat sweet but a lot of it gets to be disgusting. Though IMHO AFAICS YMMV, OTOH TLDR PM ML.

I've reached a point in my life where most of the time I'm more comfortable inside my own head than anywhere else. And people look at me funny. But then you'd expect this to be par for the course on a programming forum, so not weird... Well, somewhere inside me there's a little rapist I'm protecting by not turning him in. Guess that's kind of strange.

I have one friend offline.

Other than that, I'm having a difficult time thinking of anything strange about myself.

I have and use 1.2 TB of chess endgame database. I also share it all online on p2p.

I had 6 automatic chess engine-engine tournaments running 24/7 for the most of the last year. Reduced to just 3 now.

I hate vegetables (so I have to eat vitamins).

I've climbed to the top of mt. Fuji 7 times.

I once met new year in mountains in a tent with -30 C outside.

I watched Carpenter's "The Thing" about 15 times and still want to watch it again.

I have had three different jobs in the last year, and I'm going for the fourth in two weeks.

Oh rly?
I'm heavily myope, i lack something like 8 degrees per eye.

Then you shouldn't lead me on by bookmarking all my threads.

Oh well, at least manjula still likes me.

Because you're the one making them feel uncomfortable?

Yes! Actually it's a quote from something. But you need to be a big fan of that something to get it. I was thinking that someone would guess it.

...

I hate Chinchillas, Everybody thinks they are so cute and soft and fuzzy. They are soulless creatures of the night, who enjoy causing as much noise as they can at random hours of the night. They delight in denying me a full night sleep and are turning my girlfriend against me.

I second this notion. My fathers girlfriends daughter had a Chinchilla once, it perished in an unfortunate accident involving snow and tossing objects out the window.

I am fairly good at guessing who is going to go to Ikea and who's not (the bus I take to work and back is one of the few that goes right past it). Factors that help in guessing:

• If they look like students, there's a good chance that they're going to Ikea to buy some cheap B-grade furniture.

  
  

• If they are dressed up with "style", there's a good chance that they're going to Ikea to buy some "stylish" furniture (which is, in fact, cheap B-grade furniture).

  
  

• If they're female, there's a good chance that they're going to Ikea.

  
  

• If they keep looking left and right, there's a good chance that they're going to Ikea without realizing it's in another city + a 30 minute ride.

  
  

• If they're dressed up like they're going to meet the president, there's a good chance that they're swedes going to Ikea.

Cheap is true. But there are some quality stuff there as well.

You are probably right, Gnolam. Another fact about me, I can turn my left foot around so it points in the opposite direction. I showed it to a friend at work who then asked me if I could fit inside a small box. I am not sure, but since we were at a UPS distribution hub, I did not want to try.

Don't misquote me boy. I said more frontal nudity, not . Those are reserved for Indeterminatus.

You! You will feel the pain of a thousand ninja-chinchillas stabbing you in your sleep. Feel the pain... >_>

I agree, Indeterminatus is a cute one.

Pfft what does Indeterminatus have over me?

A bigger one perhaps ?

Indy's a pretty boy. All you have is your eyes.

I am always right.

I still think I'm sexier

Yeah Steve Terry is pretty cute too.

I am an Atheist but my next project might be a Bible game.

I am an A.cc member but my next project might get finished.

Someone sig that !

I was born in Rhodesia!

I haven't slept more than 5 hours since Friday.

That makes you older than me...

Yes well you just remember to respect your elders sonny

Oh and I lived in Kuwait for a while as a kid as well!

Obviously not all that weird, but I was always able to tell if the TV was on from OUTSIDE from both my parents house's, doors closed, TV muted or not.

High frequency sounds tend to cause some nice headaches for me And people wonder what the heck I'm talking about

I'm a profoundly lazy individual. I have my life organized so I experience very little stress: I live with in walking distance to work so I don't have to deal with traffic, I go to the grocery store only on sunday mornings because no one else is there, I have a job that requires 10% of my ability (actually this is stressful), I don't date because relationships/women stress me out, I don't drink or smoke and I don't hang out with people that do. Very relaxing. I think I'd make a good monk.

I live in a hotel:
