just how weird are you?

[mshcherbatskaya]

I'll add my little weird trait before I go to sleep... I have progressively been developing Argophobia.... For those unleet googlers... It's the fear to go outside.
It can really put a damper on things like work. For example I have to deal with thirty clients a day as a computer technician... so yeh... EPIC FUN!

Agoraphobia and other anxiety jimjams suck. I dealt with them for about a decade and just now think I may have found the key to getting myself out of it. There are lots of different approaches that can help a lot. If you are interested, I can suggest a few.

I tend to go into a fit of rage whenever I fuck something up really bad. (ie, doing something stupid while driving, getting a shitty mark on a test). This results in me screaming profanities, punching/kicking walls, and/or repeatedly slapping myself in the forehead progressively harder. I generally don't do this in public though.

I just can't live without rageahol.

Also, I enjoy scoohl :[

 

[Logie--bear]

Bi-Polar, Real time visions of people around me dying but it's usually me. I manage to hate everything possible and I have a permanent psoriasis on my ankle.

I don't feel pain like normal people do, for example (I know I've posted this before but I will repeat it for this topic) when I joined the army I broke my leg in basic and didn't realize it until I finally got tired of looking at my swollen leg, and went to have it go looked at, low and behold I broke both my tibia and fibia. I have no pressure points, normally you have them on various parts of your body but all I get out of them is a dull sensation telling me that there is something important there that shouldn't be poked at in that manner, still doesn't hurt though. My nasal cavity doesn't go any higher than my eyebrows, which sucks because if I get a head cold of any significance there is nothing soft to cushion my brain, which leave me unconcious for about 2 days until I can manage to find a way to get medicine (at least that's how it worked last time). I'm incredibly flexible, back when I used to stretch (also in the army) I could wrap my foot around (from the back) and place it on my chest, I stopped stretching so I could not do it anymore, because well I only did that to creep out the other people there.

Vertiligo all over my body. And i also get light headed for no reason sometimes. Sometimes lasts around a few minutes to a month at its longest which sucks massivly cause i have to exclude myself out of all of my friends activitys. Something about the night time sets it off. The best therapy for it was sport in the blistering hot sun

 

[face_down]

Ummm well I was born 4 months premature and I'm still alive with no physical or mental handicaps but maybe that's just luck...

I do have this one thing though, the doctors don't know what it is, It's like I'm quite sensitive to loud noises and this could be the trigger though it has happened on other occasions anyway so I like get a buzzing/ringing in my ear then the whole left side of my body gets this weird tingling sensation and then everything becomes muffled, I can hear other people fine but it's as if their not speaking, and I've been told my voice becomes much quieter. So yeah I get that and have done for about 5 years.

 

[poleboy]

I tend towards ritualistic behavior. I do the same things in the same way every day. I'm not sure why.
I have a weird thumb that can bend the wrong way.
I'm also a bit of a recluse but hey, you guys are freaks compared to me

OP: Have you considered making a career out of it?

 

[crabman]

If I get too dehydrated I completely lose my sight. I mean I cannot see a damn thing, it just sort of dissolves away until I'm blind. Believe me, it's not a good thing to happen in the middle of a mosh pit. Usually sitting down sorts it all out until I can get to some water. Didn't really fancy sitting down in the middle of a mosh pit though, I pretty much fought my way to where I thought the back was...

I also once had a sinus infection that somehow turned my snot bright orange. Boy was that weird. Also pretty disgusting...

I also have pretty dodgy circulation in my hands and knees, though not as many people notice the knees, covered up by jeans as they are. My hands will regularly go purple even when I don't feel cold. Sometimes they go grey, and sometimes they go both grey and purple, with small random spots of bright orange.
Might be something to do with the fact that I'm 6'5", and weigh 9 stone. People often hate me for that fact


Edit:
Remembered more!
10 weeks premature, sadly not so wow inducing as face_down, but still pretty early.

Used to suffer from what I believe was Labyrinthitis, happened 3 or 4 times a year for about 11 years, started when I was 5. Thankfully havn't had it for a few years now, but it really was horrible when I did get it.
It would last 1 or 2 weeks at a time, I would get vertigo, I would be very unsteady on my feet, and whenever I tried to walk around, I threw up. Absolutely horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

There's probably more, but I can't really be bothered to think right now.


Thought about it a bit more:
My absolute weirdest thing is that I am right now spending my time writing about my weird things on an internet forum*. Just seems kinda weird to me.

*Sorry if that joke's already been made, I'm tired and don't really want to read through the whole thread.

I do that too, it's not somthing I'm proud of, but I think (like the proverb) eyes are windows to the soul, and I don't like looking into them as I'm worried what I might find.

It also sucks with chicks, how much eye contact does it take to become "that weirdo who is staring at me" but he gets noticed more than "the guy who won't even look at me"

Just earlier today i was talking to some chick and she was like "Why dont you lok at me
and all i thought was
"F***k

 

[Anarchemitis]

I wish I could stand on the ceiling for no reason at all, other than odd-take vlogging on YouTube.

 

[the monopoly guy]

I want a house that is entirely upside, so you live in the ceiling and everything is on the floor which is actually the ceiling...I don't know how you'd cook though

I do have serious trouble making eye contact.

 

[Omnidum]

Also, I have the horrible ability to conjure up a dozen of bad jokes to anything I hear.

 

[BustaNinja]

Im a super pervert. Does that count?

Actually Im relatively normal.

well, other then my attitude and demeanor, but those are my own doing.

 

[mattgr2006]

my greatest dream is to see a 2 foot tall guy in a full plate mail outfit go around with a huge double bladed battle axe and hack at peoples shins.
also i make really bad jokes out of nowhere. i.e What do you call a gay alien?
An Extraterestical

 

[Mephilese]

The only thing I can think of is that I'm allergic to pastels and most paints..
And that I'm a vegetarian and don't like most vegetables ><

 

[MRMIdAS2k]

The only thing I can think of is that I'm allergic to pastels and most paints..

Don't drink paint then!

But seriously, is it like "I can't touch wet paint" or "I can't touch dry paint" or "I can't breathe in paint fumes"?

And what is your reaction to them?

I was born bright blue. It faded away but for about 15 minutes at the begining of my life I was a deep azure blue. Mix that with a love for the planet Neptune I've always had for no reason and ... honestly I'm not sure what that makes.

I hate, like loath, to use people's names. I've had friends who, after months of communicating and going to parties and stuff, have had to ask if I knew their name. Something about using a person's name just bothers me. Its ... formal but that's not really it. I'm not sure honestly.

I'm built like a line-backer but I haven't been in a fight since I was 6 (I'm 17 now) and I'm a pacifist. I am also very resistant to pain. I've had people hit me with bats and it doesn't really hurt. Even if I'm kicked in the balls, it's unpleasent but it's not like "collapsing on the ground crying" pain which seems like the norm.

Oh and my head can grow any and all types of hair. It tends to even out as brownish and wavy but the strands themselves can be any color (black, brown, red, blonde, gray, ect.) and any style (straight, wavy, curly, frizzy, ect.) and can even change mid-strand (from black, wiry and wavy to blonde, thin and straight mid-hair).

There's more but I don't feel like thinking of them at the moment.

There are mountain people in Tennessee known as "blue Morgans", one particular extended family who are almost all blue at birth, some of whom remain bluish to a few deep indigo blues their whole lives. They've been studied (I read about it in a magazine, never knew any personally) and it comes from a double-recessive gene in that family, something to do with the red blood cells. Since their communities were so insular and isolated, they almost always married someone at least fourth cousin kin or closer, so the double recessive got quite common. Now with more contact and more mobility almost none of them marry kin so the blue Morgans are becoming extinct, just a few of the older ones left.

My beard grew in different colors, from brown like my hair through a couple shades of red. I liked it, but the red turned to gray fastest.
