Post 3 random facts about yourself
 
Thought this would be a fun little thread to swap info and in some cases, get to know one another better! So the deal is, you post 3 random facts about yourself that people on the board might not know about you (at least, of course, until you've posted it... then people will know it about you!) - they can be as funny or as serious, as trivial or personal as you want.

I'll kick off with:

1. Reading Jackie Collins novels is my guilty pleasure (I know, so trashy!), and I'm not even sorry. :P
2. My thumbs are double-jointed; I can actually bend them both backwards a full 90 degrees.
3. I used to pose as a model for art classes.

Your turn! :D

1) I have three tattoos, only one of which was intentional. The other two are from the times I inadvertently stabbed myself with the sharp end of a pencil.

2) I'm trained to handle alligators.

3) My favorite book is "Good Omens," by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman.

You're trained to handle alligators? That's awesome! How did you learn that particular skill?

Lethal Lullaby 07-15-2014 12:23 AM

Ooh this looks interesting
  1. I tend to make cat noises a lot. :lol: I'm not sure why I do though.
  2. Dark humor is my guilty pleasure.
  3. I love pretty much any red candy.

  1. My fingers and thumb are hypermobile. For some reason people think it's gross? Always seemed normal to me, but it's a thing.
  2. I was born with acute light sensitivity in my eyes, but I don't experience the "red glare" or headaches associated with photophobia [the medical condition]. So that's a thing too.
  3. I've never broken a bone or had stitches or sprained/dislocated/anything okay I don't get hurt I am invincible also I never go outside

pennydreadful 07-15-2014 03:57 AM

Heh, Lethal - I do the same thing, sort of. Every time I walk into the same room as my partner, we start doing the "Meow MEOW!" from the Detective Mittens videos.

Net, my headcanon now is that you're a vampire. Light sensitivity, staying in your fortress, invulnerable to human injuries... it all makes sense! :P

Powder 07-15-2014 04:46 AM

1. I've done songs with many notable rappers & producers, such as Young Buck of G-unit fame, Canibus, Wu-tang Clan affiliates, & more.

2. Sometimes I think I'm invincible. I've had more near death experiences than I can count on 2 hands.

3. I can compose symphonic arrangements but I can't read sheet music nor play any of the instruments.

Don't forget my hatred of garlic and the fact that I have no reflection.

Fun little thread:

1. I have never gotten seriously injured or broken anything intentionally. (I did have two broken bones in my feet, but that was because of bunion surgery and the doctor had to do it.)

2. I'm blind in one eye. Many of you know this already, but it's still something that many wouldn't know about unless they asked me straight up or I told them.

3. I'm not a very social person and enjoy being by myself.

Volunteered at a zoo for three years. Along with gators, I also got the chance to 'pill' a bobcat. A whole lot of fun, I miss it.

1. I'm not allowed in my local Dairy Queen.

3. I have a lot of native american blood in me, but can't get a check :D

You can't just say that without a story!! Why aren't you allowed?

Lou 500 07-15-2014 02:43 PM

1. I have a birthmark on the inside of my eye
2. I have a tattoo on my right shoulderblade
3. I'm a hayfever sufferer.

Candy Kappa 07-15-2014 03:01 PM

My Scottish ancestor had a part in the Gunpowder Plot in 1605.

I'm a happy owner of two Red-Eared Slider girls, a Yellow-bellied Slider boy and a girl.

I did a short running web comic based off me and my roomies that I lived with called Geek Floor.

Icebot 07-15-2014 04:20 PM

I've worked every consecutive Tuesday for 6 years in a row once.

I'm sensitive to loud noise and big crowds.

I'm afraid to drive.

MsMarvelDuckie 07-15-2014 06:24 PM

Ooh, fun thread! Here are mine:

1. I've never had a hangover. Ever. Which is odd, considering that I have been so drunk on several different occasions that I could barely stand, let alone walk! (And I'm no light-weight, either.)

2. My Bacon Number is 3. Yes, I have a (Kevin) Bacon Number. Thank you Mr. Duckie!! (His is 2!!)

3. My daughter is named for a Celtic goddess, but most people who hear her name think she is named for a Fleetwood Mac song. Can you guess which one?

Haha. Well a few years ago I went through the drive through and a kid(probably 18 or 19, I was 20) in there smarted off to me. Well, I got out of the car, went inside and shoved him into the cake cooler. Broke the glass. I was related to an employee at the time, so luckily all I got was a permant ban from being inside.

Same here! Some of the sh*t I've survived would have killed a regular person (few examples - shot, stabbed, run over by a bus, several ODs, almost drowned, 2 heart attacks & once fell off the top of an 8-storey building and walked away with just a broken nose), plus I've broken dozens of bones over the years...:lol:

What's with all of the members being impossible to kill/difficult to injure here? Do we have a secret contingent of posters who were part of the Weapon X project?! :P

Plus your distaste for organized religion... obviously so you can avoid crucifixes, holy water and hallowed ground. I'm onto you, Net! :lol:

That sounds AWESOME! Though I hope that bobcat was a lot easier to pill than my housecats... I've even got one of those pill-popper thingies and I still end up picking soggy pill remnants out of my eye afterwards. :lol:

Also Discogod, I've gotta know how you came to be bitten by otters twice...

MrPliggins 07-16-2014 12:39 AM

1. I've moved 13 times in my life, so far.

Kanon 07-16-2014 12:49 AM
