I don't really like spiders too much, and it's OK if they habor the same dislike as I tend to kill them when I find them. I hope they are not plotting the same.... Shocked

I like big butts and I cannot lie.

I am twice as nearsighted in one eye as in the other.

I can eat truly tremendous amounts of sushi, as long as there is no wasabe on it.

Several years ago I had some fluid removed from my foot (due to bursitis). Since I didn't have any ice at home, I used a package of frozen corn to numb the pain instead.

A couple of years ago I managed to get bad sunburn on my upper back and shoulders while on holiday in Cornwall. The doctor I saw (3 days later when I couldn't stand the pain anymore) said it was equivalent to 2nd degree burns he'd seen on housefire victims. Shocked

Not sure about that, 3 weeks later it had completely healed BUT lesson learnt - never again. Now I always wear factor 50 if there's a risk of hot sunshine, and at least factor 30 the rest of the time.

On the plus side, I got a shitload of painkillers. 2 co-codamol and I'm floating on the ceiling...

@ Jeanette - that would be Hungarian, yes?
@ Caligula - dare we ask where this 3rd nipple was located? Could give rise to some interesting opportunites. Laughing

@ Badgey-wadgey - I also REALLY don't like spiders, although I try not to kill anything if I don't have to. Karma. Wink

I even feel bad if I accidentally tread on a snail. Crying or Very sad

^^^ I learned that lesson when I was 16. If your skin has already come off, don't play football half naked. Very Happy

I'm afraid of dogs. Kinda a lot. Especially without either muzzle or leash.

I don't drink water.

And not because of what W.C Fields famously said about it.

I just don't.

I don't post random facts about myself

I sometimes bend* the truth a teeny tiny wee bit

@ Cougar I got sunburnt in Cornwall last year, it was overcast.
I think they have secret ( but leaky)lasers in Tintagel

@ Phil I think the fish aren't the only ones, going by my experience

@ ezio frozen peas work just as well ( knee op )

@ pastor, which type?

* think mobius strip

So all it takes to get Cougar's attention is mentioning my nipples, huh? Laughing

I don't know why you want to know, but it was about 6 cm under my right nipple. It was there in the previous dreams as well.

I attract weird accidents. I once was able to cut myself on a gun. Nearly sliced the top of my left thumb.

I hate clowns. I'm not afraid of them, they just make me irrationally angry.

@ Caligula
SEE guns are dangerous

I may have another nipple but dont know how to measure the distance
Is it nipple to nipple as the crow flies or distance nipple to nipple covering topography?

@ Gimli
I tends to think most politicians are clowns
They have the same effect on me

I sometimes develop an allergy to the sun, they're completely baffled, especially since it comes and goes somewhat randomly.

I'm allergic to sulphur, it makes me hallucinate, I once had to take a job within very close proximity to a plant that produced sulphur-dioxide, it was an interesting contract to say the least.

I'm a terrible insomniac, my personal record is 5 days without sleep, I'm sure if I didn't eventually pass out I would have died or gone crazy.

I am enjoying a strong cocktail right now....... Cool

@ Nanny Ogg

You're right, I dropped the slide on a pistol before I put it away, after checking it was all properly empty and clean, and pinched the skin of my thumb between the slide and the barrel. Didn't half sting. Be careful out there!

related: I can fire a .44 magnum revolver accurately without blinking, although I haven't for a while.

I have just found another record on which a (then) famous Memphis harp player accompanying another singer appears which was not added to/mentioned it/hinted at in his "official" complete recorded output. Maybe because the only other record from that very session with the same singer was issued under a pseudonym. Pretty exciting. For me this was obvious after 3 seconds.

@Nailgunner-first time I fired my CZ52 I was holding it with my left hand way to high.Slide came back,sliced my hand open next to my thumb,and the spur of the hammer hit my thumb.Won't make that mistake twice.At least I didn't drop it Laughing

I love Jesus, but I drink a little bit.

I am fond of peanut butter and jalapeno sandwiches.

I was twenty years old before I saw the ocean.

is wondering what happened to the old PLT.... Confused

@ Cougie...karma, they have it. There's more of them then us two-leggers on the whole planet!!!

I taught myself fairly good German in my early twenties but have forgotten all of it.

Posted: Sun Jun 05, 2011 7:22 am

I can speak Chinese(a little).

Unfortunately, your German is not forgotten, just stowed in a broom closet of your brain, ready to spring into action when called for.

Solution: Overwrite it with Bavarian.

Ow, ow ow. No, that's a fast way to learn, if not the prettiest. It was half the reason I preferred revolvers.

I used to sell rocks. Other kids had lemonade stands, I had a rock stand. I was convinced that people would stop and flock to my rocks. After sitting out in the broiling heat all day, looking across the street at the girls who were selling lemonade, it occurred to me that my idea wasn't a good one. My mother bought me out for $.75 usd and I decided to run away instead.

I made it about a block away before I turned around. I'd seen these old movies where hobos put all of their belongings in a handkerchief and hung it on the end of a stick. I was toting all of my unsold rocks on the end of a stick, and it still amazes me that my mother didn't laugh outloud when I returned. Embarassed

I was 5 at the time. All she said was, "good, you're in time for lunch."

PS: I still have the rocks. Wink
