Thread: tell me a few odd things about yourself.

I still have spelling mistakes ( in both my native language, and English ). just never got the hang of spelling ( thank god for the Firefox spell checker... )

do you take every problem one at a time, and are only comfortable moving on once you've completely analyzed every aspect? or something like that?

just a thought I had...

That's an interesting thought. Most of the time, if I try to look at the whole picture, I can't make one bit of progress when a problem comes my way, even something as simple as cleaning my room. I have to go through and specifically do things by sections. It's a technique my mother had to use on me growing up, dividing jobs into sections. I couldn't wouldn't do it otherwise.

I scratch my ballz when they itch.

ah, see, I knew that had to be true, at least in some cases.

That's what I was going for.

Just remembered this:

I speak in a somewhat Southern Accent, but I'm from Wisconsin and have been all my life. How does that work?

I usually take about 10 minutes to eat a single almond. I have to peel the skin off with my teeth, and then I just nibble on it with my front teeth until it's gone. I have no idea how this habit started.... I guess I just don't like the feeling of the almonds when they get stuck in my teeth.

god if I did that I'd give up after eating the first one...WELL, that sure was a tasty almond, mmm mm...fuck it

This kinda reminds of how I eat smarties. I roll the edge around on my teeth until the shell cracks along the rim and then try to eat the shell without touching the chocolaty centre. After that I let the chocolate melt in my mouth. Makes the box last most of the way through movies.

I crave chicken kung pao in the way most people crave chocolate. I procrastinate a lot even though I'm a super worrier and a perfectionist. I speak in a foreign accent though I'm from San Bernardino. Here's a good one, I'm afraid of bees.

I have a VERY strong canadian accent. I was told by a brit. I do use eh alot, its so damn convient. its kind of like saying "what?" or "Dont you think?" For example

Pretty cold today, eh? and when you cant hear someone you just say "ehh???"

it provokes conversation!

Hah, it's no different then when people say, "Huh?" or "Hey?" at the end of a sentence. Still, it's funny when people use it in every sentence.

I find incest an attractive liftestyle choice.

...only joking.

My odd thing is that I have white hair down the back of my head, for no apparent reason, and that I had a twin what died at birth (some say there was a mortal struggle in the womb, and that a strangled him with his umbilical cord...that's a lie) AND that I'm a Gemini. Gemini, twins! Coincidence?

I am too

I can wiggle my eyes extremely fast...something I saw a friend of mine do on a bus...thought it seemed easy enough...tried it myself and succeeded on the first time. I thought it was something that was easy to do...apparently not because I haven't come across anyone else that can do it. Anyone who tries fails miserably.

I can do that as well; not as well as some, but still. It's kind of funny to see people cross their eyes and say, "Am I doing it?" Um, sorry, no.

I can also cross one eye at a time, switching between the two. It's actually not that hard. Someday, though, I think it'd be interesting to see if I could actually diverge (is that the right word?) my eyes. That'd be an... interesting talent to have.
