strange facts about ourselves

Affects your urine though.

[Julian]

mmm, asparagus.

[foosnark]

I have a spear.  It'd be pretty unhealthy if it was eaten or entered someone's ear.  I'm not obessed with it though.

[ativan]

slow cooked over a lite flame in butter and onion. Lite cheese sauce or even crumbled. Asparagus Mmm...
I like to go out and look for the purple shoots coming up under the leaves out in the woods in spring. While checking the private Morell's stash places.
There are a type of psilocybn mushroom if you know what your looking for. They also go great with asparagus.

I like dinosaurs.

You probably don't want to know this, but a sufficient intake of asparagus leads to green and pungent semen. Do not ask me how I know.

[ativan]

I like dinosaurs.

Have you ever had one as a pet, like when you were a kid?

[ZaidaZadkiel]

Have you ever had one as a pet, like when you were a kid?

no, when I was kid i was into computers and didn't care about dinosaurs or pets, really.
Couldn't even stand a tamagotchi.

Last year I had a bunch of dinosaur toys thanks to some emo friend who sort of left them at my house at the time.
I made clothes for them, they were naked :s
And we went to the beach and had beer.

Since then, I find dinosaurs to be pretty cool guys.

[ativan]

Yeah,...they are fun when they've been drinking

I can curl my tongue.

Oddly enough, I can curl your tongue too.

[Jaimey]

Oddly enough, I can curl your tongue too.

Was that you?  I knew I wasn't doing it.

[RebeccaFog]

I am the fairy tongue curler. I come into your home at night and do my thing. Nobody leaves me coins.

[Julian]

I can't think of any more strange facts about myself. maybe I'm just ordinary.

no matter how out-of-shape I am, though, I can always bend from the waist and put my palms flat on the floor. maybe what's weird about this fact is the proportion of my friends who either can't or can barely touch their toes.

[Jaimey]

I am the fairy tongue curler. I come into your home at night and do my thing. Nobody leaves me coins.

Bwahahahaha!  It's good to see you, Rebs. 

...I can touch the floor too, palms down!  I'm probably too proud of that.

[RebeccaFog]

I can touch the floor with my palms and I'm not in great shape. We should all get together and walk down a street that way.

Thanks, Jaimey.

Once I was lying on the floor doing Pilates with my music teacher, and I kicked my friend in the shoulder. My leg (plus hip area, I guess) was as long as her whole body. Admittedly, I'm a full foot taller than her.

[ativan]

I wonder who first started using foot as a height indicator rather than a distance. Would they make people lie on the ground and line up feet to measure? Or do you think somebody decided a standard foot was a piece of wood as long as his own and declared that from that day forth or until the wood broke, that they could now measure in any direction they could think up. I wonder how long and funny the celebration was? Maybe they all made foot wood and went around comparing their foot sticks?

When i go anywhere,and have to wait for service,I go round and "Square" things up. At the chiropractors I place the magazines in the left corner of the table,ill level the pictures on the wall.(lucky i haven't crossed any flying ducks yet  )If I'm at the petrol station and i use my cc ill straighten the "pad" on the service desk.

I'm in the building trade and find myself looking at the mortar joints in brickwork...do they line up? would the doorbell be square on the wall? Is the light on the front porch centred?Is everything Balanced,and symmetrical?

Drives my partner insane sometimes cos I pick them all to her,and as we're renovating...as I'm halfway through doing something I come up with another idea to make things work better or more functional.I dont think I could make off the plan.alterations,alterations!

[ativan]

It's dificult to ditinguish the strangeness from normal. Most people seem very strange themselves to me.

[foosnark]

Kristyn, my house would either keep you busy or drive you mad.   I swear there isn't a level floor or a good 90 degree angle anywhere in the place.  Some of our bookshelves are a little scary -- flush against the wall at the floor, 3 inches gap at the top, with a rug jammed under the front to stop it from tipping forward...
