Post a Fun Fact About Yourself

[spielberg11]

* Since I'm red-haired and my parents are brunette, technically I'm a mutant, according to my year 8 science teacher.
* I have an English accent despite having been born and living in Australia for nearly seventeen years (even my English parents and younger sisters have Aussie accents now).
* Often fear, despite my near-perfect scores in History, English and Science at school, that I'm dumb, a notion reinforced when I realise how smart other Escapists are.

How do you cure hiccups? It is vital that I obtain this information.

Take a glass, fill it with water, and take five gulps without breathing in between. Always works. In a pinch, saliva or any other liquid works good too.

I can make my shoulderblades stick out, a couple years back I could even clench a soda-can between them.

I don't think this is a fun fact, but I have recently graduated with a BSc (hons) degree in Biochemistry and Biological chemistry, one of only 15 people who graduated in that subject, when I started the course there was about 40 people on the course. It's not a fun fact, but something I am very proud of.

- About two/three years ago I completely gave up on a fictional sci-fi universe I had created. I had spend upwards of 8 years on it by then. Most of the work was creating fictional languages and fleshing out cultures, esoteric political systems, stellar cartography and other things that were mostly not directly related to any storyline.

I had started three massive book projects for the universe. I only consider the last one to be a fairly well-composed story (unfortunately I never finished it, so it is a bit of a mess). Its scale was not much more than the interactions between the three main characters (meaning no grand intergalactic wars or anything like that). The book mainly focused on the behavior of their very broken minds, cultural relativism, and discrimination.

- I have severe issues initiating contact. So severe that if my friends didn't contact me, they'd just disappear completely from my life, even if I really liked them. I've never met anyone who is as terrible as me at this. I don't really know why I am like this, for I'm not really anxious to initiate contact. I think it might be because I don't want to bother people or waste their time, and that I'm completely unable to make anyone happy/feel better/etc. (or really give anyone anything at all). It doesn't really help that it makes me feel completely inferior to everyone else.

In essence my own twisted mind says that to be nice to other people, I should not bother them and rather stay away.

I lost my two front teeth playing British Bulldog, in my 20s.

 

[Floggo]

I'm part Scottish, that's all the fun you'll get out of me. Other than that I'm an Alcoholic, only at parties.

 

[Triangulon]

I am fully trained in handling all species of British reptile, amphibian, bat and the hazel dormouse.

 

[The Heavy Metal Nerd]

I'm Alligator Toed, (At least I think that's what it's called) meaning my feet naturally point outwards at a 45 degree angle. I've got a sneaking suspicion that's what makes me such a fast sprinter...somehow.

 

[Dime797]

I have an x shaped scar across most of my tongue from biting it in half when i was 2.
I also have a duel citizenship and I write my own music

 

[Dma]

I have diplopia so I see two of everything without contact lenses. Its actually more amusing then annoying.

I was born on Christmas day. And to this day hold the record for the amount of Jesus jokes aimed at me.

The lines (that fold up when you close your hand) on my palm is different to my other palm.
On my right palm the two lines on the right side are close but there is a clear gap, while on left palm on the left side are jined to a point. I guess that mean I ain't symetrical.

 

[Trippy Turtle]

IQ of 156 and still managed to where odd shoes to school today. Apparently I have no common sense, fashion sense or much other sense.

 

[Richardplex]

At one point or another, I have had a box placed on my head.

 

[Leemaster777]

When I was only a few months old, I was almost killed by a SWAT team. To be fair, the situation DID involve a presidential assassination plot.

(not joking)

 

[Hafnium]

My right ear is slightly higher than my left (at least the base is), you'd never notice but glasses sit crooked on the ears and it annoys me! Nature also cursed me with poor eyesight, but I win by using contacts.

 

[Cybele]

I got a buzz cut a few days ago. Oh and I'm a girl.

Wait, hold up.
