Things we didn't know about you

[CaptainInsano]

This is to post things about yourself that not even your friends may not know about you! Everyone at CA can get know each other's quirks.

Here's me...

- have a black belt in Karate

- can play the alto saxophone

- have a benign (harmless) tumor above my right eye-brow

- very shy in real life

- have a degree in History

- afraid of Jelly Fish

- met Bill Clinton.

[corky13]

1)Im still single girls ;> ....
2)I like Metal..the louder the better ! NO ITS NOT ORGANISATED NOISE DISTURBANCE !
3)Im somewhat shy in RL to...(thats why #1)

[ZapRadon]

Heh..how many of us are artists because we're too shy to talk to people?

[John]

I'm not too shy to talk to people. I just don't like people disturbing me when i want to draw. Or drink. Also, i can't divert my attention from the awesome things i do or say, so very often i just can't concentrate on others because i'm occupied with myself. Or the hot music blasting from my headphones.

Corky, you like Dillinger Fucking Escape Plan? They're as loud as it gets for me. After that it's the chaos that's Mr. Bungle.

[cotron]

i lived in southern italy when i was a kid

and i'm not terribly shy in real life - used to be, but learned to get over it by waiting tables and forcing myself to meet people.

i snuck out of my house regularly around 13-14 years old and would take the subway into dc to see bands play... but thats more of a secret that my parents didn't know :P

[Midnight]

I practice Yang-style Taiji Quan.

[Profil]

erhum.
I live in sweden, but my "blood" are from poland, germany, italy, denmark, france etc. Not swedish, that´s why I am so hot.
I don´t know if I´m shy or not, that´s up to others

[endregan]

I only post on the forums naked.

[rick_hershey]

hmmm. things no one really knows about me?

I have 15 little plastic ninjas sitting on my computer.

Parmiyaki chicken wings are my favorite food.

I was published as a writer before I was published as an artist

I can't write

In 5th grade I started an art studio with all the best artists in the school, we got busted after a month. When called to the office I presented a list of all my records which showed clients and profits (around 75.00 first month) . . .the principal took all our art till the end of the year, but what made her really mad was that I had a personal assistant and she didn't.
I havn't told anyone that in about 10yrs.

goddamnit and i here i was thinking i was unique. pfeh.

[John]

I have 15 little plastic ninjas sitting on my computer.

For the love of god, PICTORZ! I need to see that, where did you get them? I got that thing for ninjas, i'm a total ninja fanboy.
Funny thing is, my bestest friend is really into pirates. Funniest thing is, we're both not 14 anymore, but, like, ten years older.
God damnit now i gots ink all over my t-shirt. The excitement!

:pirate: :ninja++:

[Carnifex]

i'm rather shy in real life (when not drunk)
i don't get turned on simply by nudity

[NoSeRider]

I come off as shy, but I think I evaluate people before I freely express myself.
I'm just trying to figure out how approachable a person is first.

People with strong personalities always seem volatile to me.

Approachable means to me tolerant and not quick to react emotionaly.

[jetpack42]

i can ride a unicycle.

[rick_hershey]

Here's what the ninjas look like, I get mine from a toy machine outside a grocery store. I also posted a site that will tell you more about the little ninja warriors.
http://www.tinyninjatheater.com/

sorry, for the interuption- back to posting about yourselves :teeth:

[Chяis]

I'm a twin though non-identical and usually questioned on "are you guys really twins?"

I'm generally the shy nice guy, though that seems to be a very common thing around here. :x

I'm :canadian:.

I actually ordered a tablet this week!

[HugeHarHar]

I'm quite out going.

I have a scanner(my sketch book support group would like to know this).

I'm musically retarded.

Single.

Ninja fan, death to pirates.

[0kelvin]

When I was younger I used to do photomanipulations. Really bad, cheesy photomanipulations that I hope no longer exist. It helped me learn to use Photoshop really well, but I'll forever have that shame. Oh well, at least I never made fake celebrity nudes.

I spent four of my teenage years (off and on) making an RPG Maker game called Baldy's Big Day. I was quite proud of it at the time, but I have no idea what I'd think if I played it today.

My hobbies include digging up embarassing things from my childhood and making fun of them.

Oh yeah, I'm another shy guy.



0kelvin

[acuna_read]

Those things will remain secret, hence the term "secret".

And im not shy unlike you bunch of nancy boys. Im just socially retarded! :dead:

[Hamsta]

I'm not shy... I'm socialphobic, potential mates and "higher ranking people" scare me the most, as well as large gatherings of people... I always think these people judge me. I also hate answering the phone, eating in public, and a pleathora of other things.

I eat my own cum, started out when I needed a way to get rid of the stuff, now it's a habit. I will not eat your cum.

What's worse, this or the pantie thing?

[Chingwa]

I wear glasses

[thirdeye]

I eat my own cum, started out when I needed a way to get rid of the stuff, now it's a habit. I will not eat your cum.

Looks like someone will get new custom title :P :devil:



Mine are not so original:

I'm shy and distrustful which makes people perceive me as an antisocial egoistic moron :/

I play drums. Played since I was about 17 - thought my little 12 year old brother some basics. He now - after 6 years - plays twice faster and better than me and has a band playing math-chaos-core kinda thing.

Unlike most eastern europeans - I hate vodka - I'm a beer person.

I lived and worked in NY for 3 months - loved it and been trying to come back ever since :)

[Jessica Hook]

In high school, me and my friends were all on the school judo team. In our first year there was a sponsored "judo camp," in which the team camped in cabins for the weekend playing all those "trust" games, you know where someone falls backward off a plank and the team has to catch them, yadda yadda. After that one weekend my friends and I had the brilliant idea to save all the waiver forms our parents had to sign, blank them out, and re-use them again & again, telling our parents we had a judo camp every quarter. Obviously a lie, so that we could disappear for the weekend without suspicion, and binge drink our eyes out, camping in cheap ass tents on the beach. Good times, good times.

Looking back, in high school I had built up such an incredible tolerance to alcohol, which sadly, has dissipated into next to nothing. sigh :^^;: I need to get out more.

edit- oh yeah, and uh, don't ever put a box of sleeping pills into the orange juice your friends are mixing with vodka :$ :$ not cool >:{

[arghmisfit]

i snuck out of my house regularly around 13-14 years old and would take the subway into dc to see bands play... but thats more of a secret that my parents didn't know :P

nice one! what were some of the bands? :D

[lolliscops]

i am single.

i am happier being single(so far)

i can set my car keys down and not find them two minutes later.

i am also a little shy.. but crazy too. i get it from my dad..

i am the middle child of three girls. i have three step-brothers. i am the living example of the brady bunch.

:^^: :^^: :^^:

[AnarchyAo2]

I'm a twin (not identical, its called feternal, spelling?). I'm also very shy around new people, but if you get to know me and I become comfortable around ya, I'm very goofy. Also, I argue with people as much as I do on the internet. I always stick to my thoughts and morales.

[EccoXile]

I'm an identical twin

I used to own a pink ninja such as rick has, but he is now lost. Seeing that picture made me cry.

I never know what to say around people I don't like or don't know, but am otherwise very social.

I looove gardening :bashful:

[Mavrick71]

I am the opposite of like all stereotypes(e.g. I'm a smart jock, I'm from West Virginia, but I'm not a hillbilly, and uhh i can't think of anymore).
I'm 14, and i'm 6' 0", 175 lbs and I can bench press 185 lbs. :muscle:
Jimi Hendrix is my idol.
I have no idea wtf stfu means :stfu:
I secretly want to be a pirate. :pirate: :skull: :vodkamachine:

[Prehistoric]

maverick - stfu means "shut the fuck up". now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

and for those of you who picked up on the reference in the first sentence, the thing you don't know about me is that i wish i still had all my G.I. Joes from childhood.

[mintyfreshdoom]

I have some fierce social anxiety disorder, but I'm not shy. I used to be shy, but it was very boring, so I gave it up. Unfortunately I have found out that now that I can talk to people, I really deeply dislike most people and don't actually want to talk to them after all. Go figure.

I want to be a pirate too.

I get far too much enjoyment out of q-tipping my ears. Like, far, far too much. :^^;:

[Presence]

Hahaah Mav, I know the feeling except it only gets worse, 25, 6'4.5 and 209...not sure what my bench is right now though.

I have not spoken to my father in 10 years, I am writing the screenplay to my grad film as a type this, I have always wanted a golden retriever, I am sick of bartending, I have a fetish for blue eyed blonde south african girls...which is why I married one lol, I am lactose intolerant but can not stay away from chocolate milkshakes, I am allergic to liquor, I just had my drivers license suspended for the 3rd time, I am currently working 72 hours a week.

[cotron]

nice one! what were some of the bands? :D

lots and lots of bands, i was at a show almost every week or so
i saw the dc bands a lot- the suspects, the goons, the spitfires, lickity split, frodus

i went to a mix of punk, ska, and hardcore shows, I never really discriminated between the three... some of the better bands I saw were hepcat, the slackers, battery, h2o, bane, the unseen, the casualties, hatebreed, kid dynamite(!!!), us bombs, darkest hour, AFI before they were big.... more than I can remember....guhhh. like I said, a lot of bands. my hearing is gonna suck when i get old. it was a very fun time in my life though, wouldn't trade it for anything.

[ApolloNuevo]

w/ in 24 hours i hate almost anything i draw or paint. hate to the point people used to have to stop me from destroying art. better at it now...i just store everything as soon as possible so i never have to look at it again.

-dan

[NoUseFrAName]

[M.C.Barrett]

I have a unibrow, its unified browly powers kept in check only by constant attention to keeping them separated, securing the safety of the mortal public one day at a time.
I adopted a dog, since it's impossible for me to have one of my own (being human and male and everything).
I challenge any Scion-driving poseur to drive a REAL minivan like I do. Any takers? I thought not.
I cannot sleep in a car or plane.
I once slept in my car overnight in a K-mart parking lot.
I have an uncanny ability to completely platonize all encounters with females which could conceivably result in intimate relationships.
I am almost constantly formulating anagrams of words I read, speak, or hear, in my head.
I love ferocious lightning storms waking me up at 3 AM.
I hate clear, boring, blue skies.
I'm shy, but friendly and open.
I think... I think I love you.

[stoph]

In 5th grade I started an art studio with all the best artists in the school, we got busted after a month.

I havn't told anyone that in about 10yrs.

i had a similar op going with myself and 2 other buddies in about grade 4. we used to lease out our talent to those who were lacking for a substantial fee. hehe :P the teachers didnt send us to the office but they strongly discouraged our business.

oh and something else? hmm.. i had a severe eating disorder from around 8-9 years old and have always been a little underweight as a result. i also suffered from a mild form of depression, most probably resultant of the eating disorder.

for 2 years i did modern dance and theatre, performing on many occassions. last major theatrical performance i wore a prosthetic beard and moustache - a real Gandalf experience.

my last name is green.

[John]

I want those ninjas. :(

They're so easy to dispose of, you won't even realize you just killed a kitten!

http://img69.exs.cx/img69/7995/god-kills-kitten2.jpg

[bizarre]

i've seen several members of conceptart naked.

for the last year, i've only exercised by moonlight- weighted jogging at 3am, fifty laps in the pool before dawn breaks, that sort of thing.

i found true love in Conceptart.org (in a few different ways. I'm talking to you, Slash!!!! ... just... kidding... right.)

I grew up in South Korea. I don't speak more than 3 words of korean. I have never had a soju experience.

[SJ Bennighof]

I am vastly interested in the Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, and Chinese languages, but I only speak English and a little Spanish.
I am terrified of ovens. I can't put Bagel Bites in the oven.
I'm a conservative. (bet no one knew that, right? :confident )
I have a slight neurosis about deep water. If I can't touch bottom, I tend to convince myself that there's a shark or a giant squid or some shit in there.
I have an eye condition that makes me very, very sensitive to sunlight. I can barely see in the daytime outside without some sunglesses.
I have a tendency both to acknowledge the fundamental failings of the establishment and to not concern myself with them.
I eat sunflower seeds whole, shell and all.
I hold the firm conviction that Green Tea (particularly Long Jing) > American Tea.

[waronmars]

my alternate identities are: god, spider-man and jenna jameson

[OLSEN]

I applied to a military academy when I was 20, but I decided to play dungeons and dragons with my friends instead of getting the required drivers license.

I used to be a goth. I had black hair and mascara.

Btw, there will be a test on all this next workshop, so you better remember all this stuff. :perv:

[NoSeRider]

Per mintyfreshdoom from New York
I have some fierce social anxiety disorder, but I'm not shy. I used to be shy, but it was very boring, so I gave it up. Unfortunately I have found out that now that I can talk to people, I really deeply dislike most people and don't actually want to talk to them after all. Go figure.

I've met some people from New York.....I understand how this can happen, my relatives come from New York, so I have first hand experiences. People from New York probably don't understand what I'm saying, unless you go to California. There's a total adjustment in personalities.

President Bush said, "Be careful what kind of people you associate with, because some of their behavior can rub off on you."

Despite where that message came from, I find that quote is true. I find my behavior usually reflects the people I'm around. If they're belligerent, I'm belligerent. If they're happy, I'm happy.....I'm like a frik'n monkey see monkey do kind of a guy.

This is my quote, in order to understand where I'm coming from:

I come off as shy, but I think I evaluate people before I freely express myself.
I'm just trying to figure out how approachable a person is first.

People with strong personalities always seem volatile to me.

[corky13]

Corky, you like Dillinger Fucking Escape Plan? They're as loud as it gets for me. After that it's the chaos that's Mr. Bungle.

Never heard of them so i did a little bit of research...Sounds nice. Jazz meets Industrial , metal ... this surely is a unique combination :) Thank you ;)

But i mostly listen to things like Children of Bodom , Arch Enemy , Bleeding Through , Blind Guardian etc...Death- , Vikingmetal


@Topic
Instead of coffee i make 50 push ups in the morning <_< ... my Brother calls me crazy but i believe in it...after all im not so sportive during the rest of the day...i work out just 1 day in in my average week....:(

I like to habve a glass of cold Milk to a hot chili :)

[Hamsta]

hmm... In that case, kittens are creamy but mostly bland... once it was bitter, but it's usually just bland.

Thank god I'm secular *goes off to kill more kittens*

[look]

I tend to analyze things and try to figure out the pattern or a "rule' behind everything. It gets very annoy over time, and I couldn't help it.
I hate watermelon. >:|
Too much milk (like more than 1/2 a cup) make my stomach sick, soy milk is worse.
I'm outgoing, but people make me nervous.
I go to clubs for the loud music huge crowd and dim lights, it eases my nerves and take away pressure. :P
A friend and I found porn magazine when we were 8 or 9, we couldn't understand it, but we did end up making naked paper dolls base on the magazine pictures, and make paper clothes to play dress up paper doll.

[rick_hershey]

I thought of some more things nobody knows about me:

Co-founder of the Church of the Endless Void, the first church of art. . .and no, I will not explain (but we did have over 200 members worldwide, a couple more years and my army would be large enough. . .never mind)

As a young adult an ex-girlfriend convinced me to stay at a mental health clinic, been diagnosed with 4-5 different mental disorders (but I don't trust doctors, they were just out to kill me and steal my lucky charms)

I have a doctorate, and not one of those online class things- a real one.

Use to do mascot work, dress up in costumes and go to parties, I've been barney more then once.

I have big ideas that I never persue because most of them are crazy or the funds are to great, a couple:
1-flavored tater tots, like chips, but tatertots (ranch, barbe-Q, nachos, etc.)
2- neopets like site, but with fantasy heroes.
3- personalized porn, you pick the girl/guy and they do one of those virtual scenes the way you want and uses your name and everything

there's more. . .but who cares, i'm sure it's all from not sleeping.

p.s.- if you want a ninja pm me and maybe i'll mail you one :wink:

[Bloodstone]

I cannot sleep in a car or plane.
I once slept in my car overnight in a K-mart parking lot.

LIES!

I've moved 8 times in the past 15 years.
The only states I haven't visited are Maine and Alaska.
I flip out when I get my hands dirty.

[IceMoon]

-when I'm alone or bored or something I tend to make up neurotic stupid games like; Don't touch this or that or else youre not gonna succeed or Hit this with that rock or you'll die - it's not as bad as it sounds though.
- I almost never take showers, I take a bath every day :)
- This is currently under my ctrl-V: "kmtweb.hku.nl"
- Right now I am listening to "Radioactivity" by Kraftwerk
- I should be doing homework now
- I kick your ass in Tekken


Well that's about it I guess :bashful:

[SJ Bennighof]

Oh yeah, I play a mean-ass Samus in SSBM. Wavedash, L-Canceling, mah bread and mah buttah.

[Ssenkrah Semaj]

-My favorite candy is frozen cadbury bunny eggs.

-I have never met another person with my last name-Harkness even my own family members (dead).

-I am repulsed by people who wash their hands with just water after doing anything in the bathroom, as if water alone is an effective cleaning agent.

[dogfood]

I moved 10 times in 12 years, drove from San Diego to Washinton D.C. in 50 hours, grew an inch taller between 24 and 31 years of age, love Esquivel's music (along with classical and all the other hard and soft alternative), have a single hair on the last knuckle of my left pinky, and am totally freaked out by Hamsta, right now (and probably for a very long time).

One of my favorite lines when I was younger was a derivation of "Ninjas? Yeah, I fucked 'em." Substitute "ninjas" for whatever someone thinks is tough or cool. It opens up worlds of trouble in the wrong circles.

[flatliner]

he he, this is such a great thread, I feel like I know you guys o so much better now.

-Im another identical twin

-Im going to see Nine Inch Nails on june 12 - it will be my first ever gig :$

-I hate sea-weed. Its not a fear as such, it just freaks me out swimming in the sea if im near sea weed.

-There was something else I meant to put here expet I forgot what it was...

[fukifino]

I have a reputation for being intimidating, aloof, unfriendly and scary amongst people that don't know me. I'm honestly not sure why...but in fact I'm just shy and tend not to open my mouth in the company of strangers unless I'm sure I'm not going to make an ass of myself. Plus I never want to come off as being pushy and obnoxious so I tend to drift off from groups when I don't feel comfortable which makes people think I'm ignoring them. I'm 100% different around people I know well though.

Aaaanyways...

-I've had long hair for .. er .. 12 years? It was once below my waist.
-I grew up in Hawaii on the island of Kauai (moved when I was about 7?)
-I used to speak fluent island pidgin (my parents hated it, plus, in retrospect, it was sad coming from a white boy)
-Not counting the 2 times I moved before I was 7, I've moved a total of 20 times (just completed #20 last month). I hate moving.
-I have an extra or pronounced bone in both of my feet that interrupts the tendon/ligament that holds up my arches, giving me flat feet.
-I'll be 31 in a couple weeks...not that much of a secret but most people don't believe I'm that old. (I thank my dads genetics)

OK, those are all mundane...how bout:
-I had a mullett at one point when I was a kid
-I also had one of those (wtf retarded) stupid "tails"..you know, short hair with like one bit of long hair in the back..my god, wtf were my parents thinking letting me outside like that?
-A couple of local kids used to beat me up when I went to school on Kauai
-I was in a Dungeons and Dragons club in high school.
-I've been hit by at least 3 moving cars while on a bike, and I hit one parked one once.

Random other shite:
-I scuba dive (not as often as I'd like..hate California water)
-I owned a car before I had a drivers license (or a permit)
-I like to go to raves
-I can't remember the last time I didn't own a cat.

Probably way more than anyone wants to know about me, but I'm in one of those moods, heh.

[Summer Pudding]

My favourite meal is gammon egg and chips
I've never visited Trondhiem

no Fugazi?

fugazi played free shows every once in a while at fort reno park in dc, I saw them a couple times...but that was when i was a little older, so i didnt think it'd count.. :P they're great because their shows are hardly ever more than 5 bucks.

hrmmm interesting topic

things not many people know.. all i can think of are medical things right now..

1: I had a bad habit of breaking my arm when I was little, not like a hariline fracture, I mean, like, in two pieces break. I never cried or shouted or went into shock, I just remember being very annoyed and having to ask my mom to drive me to the hospital.

2: I have a scar on my iris from when I got a piece of metal stuck in it.

3: I am deathly afraid of mangled bones... i think this stems from NOT being affected by number 1 so long ago.

[plsangel]

i can ride a unicycle.

jetpack - sweet! me too. I rode it to school in the 5th and 6th grades for shits and giggles.

ok, so a couple other things you may not know....

1. I'm not a twin
2. I owned a red tail boa constrictor for years. His name was Baby and I loved him...but unfortunately he died in a random accident.
3. I am going to be in Athleta's fall catalogue (my debut appearance) www.athleta.com (http://www.athleta.com)
3. my birthday is THIS THURSDAY! :bounce: My birthday is my favorite holiday hands down. Coming from a family of 4 it's nice to have a day just for me.
4. I sincerely enjoy decorating my "cube" here at work. Most of my favorite things are from Sideshow Collectables...(balrog statue, twisted rabbits, 12 inch figures etc) but I also have artwork from friends etc...my cube was mentioned by a local reporter when he wrote his article about the company I work for. It was only a few lines but it was nice to be noticed.
5. I'm not shy but I really don't like being the center of attention. I am very friendly but it sometimes get's mistaken for being flirtatious....GAH...I can never seem to get the formula right for "you seem like a cool person, wanna be my friend?". Oh well.
6. I stay up way too late watching complete seasons of TV shows on DVD...yeah I know, that's time I SHOULD be drawing...or doing 1000 other things.

Ok, So enough about me...

"Damnit! Mom, I shattered my spine again!" *Mutter and grumble* "Why the hell..."
That's damn funny blank!


HAha... actually kline, the second time i broke my arm that's EXACTLY how it happened.
scene - right outside the front door to my house -

me: trip-fall-breakarm-Standup and hold arm up, supporting it at the break with my good arm. (it's obviously broken, looks like a lightning bolt)

Nieghbor - "Joe! You ok?!?"

Me - "Yeah..... >sigh< I think so..." Walk inside my house, "Moooomm, I broke my arm again."

Mom (from the kitchen) - "Don't even joke about that!"

Me (sitting down right next to my brother in the den, who stands up shocked) "I'm not kidding, I broke my arm! I need to go to the emergency room. Man, THERE GOES MY SUMMER VACATION!"

All I could think about was that I wouldn't be able to go swimming with a cast on again :)

[cotron]

oh yeah, i forgot to mention i have had about 70 hours of so of tattoo work done... and one time blankslatejoe's mom served me a grilled cheese sammich at 1 in the morning.

that's one of the small things that make Fugazi cool as hell. . . . .

and of course it counts!

another couple of things about me: i've seen Pearl Jam in concert 5 times, and on two seperate birthdays.

i have blue eyes, though no one else in my family in the last 100 years has.

i'm at work right now and kind of hating my job at the moment.

[blankslatejoe]

oh yeah, i forgot to mention i have had about 70 hours of so of tattoo work done... and one time blankslatejoe's mom served me a grilled cheese sammich at 1 in the morning.



both true!

What can be said.... was it really 1 am?

Cotron's mom ..uhm.. offered me leftover chinese food i think..? I can't clearly remember. But I DO distinctly remember that your little brother is crazy.
:)

[mintyfreshdoom]

Per mintyfreshdoom from New York:
"I have some fierce social anxiety disorder, but I'm not shy. I used to be shy, but it was very boring, so I gave it up. Unfortunately I have found out that now that I can talk to people, I really deeply dislike most people and don't actually want to talk to them after all. Go figure."


I've met some people from New York.....I understand how this can happen, my relatives come from New York, so I have first hand experiences. People from New York probably don't understand what I'm saying, unless you go to California. There's a total adjustment in personalities.

President Bush said, "Be careful what kind of people you associate with, because some of their behavior can rub off on you."

Despite where that message came from, I find that quote is true. I find my behavior usually reflects the people I'm around. If they're belligerent, I'm belligerent. If they're happy, I'm happy.....I'm like a frik'n monkey see monkey do kind of a guy.

This is my quote, in order to understand where I'm coming from:
"I come off as shy, but I think I evaluate people before I freely express myself.
I'm just trying to figure out how approachable a person is first.

People with strong personalities always seem volatile to me."

New York is a pretty intense place, and you need to either be very strong or very oblivious to live here successfully because you're basically living right on top of each other like rats in boxes. That does breed some, er, many, many complete and total pricks, more or less out of necessity. I love this place, but it doesn't suit me. I lived in Portland for a year and half and loved it, I found I rather thrived in an environment where people thanked their bus drivers earnestly and held doors for one another. But even at that, polite, well meaning people make the world more pleasant, but in depth conversations with the great majority are equally as useless. I think that may have had something to do with your post, but it's nearly 4 am, I'm no longer quite sure of anything.

And generally on topic: I not only have a third nipple, my genes have gone so far as to provide me with a fourth. I could conceivably whelp and feed a small litter. Am I a throwback, or the next leap in human evolution? /m\

[Carnifex]

lol joe that sounds horrible.:)

other things:
i've been playing the piano for over 13 years now (not constantly of course).
i never broke any bone.
i appeared drunk to work yesterday (friends had passed final exams and were giving away free drinks) and told everyone i was overtired.
i have never kissed a girl.
i'm still single-have ever been.
i can straighten my arm so much it bends into the other direction(also to be found in the "are you freaky" thread).
i never know how to approach new people.(what to say)
i have an easier time talking with someone in english.(meaning i often easier find the right words)
when bored at work i go masturbating instead of drawing. (d'oh!)
i write all of this at work where i'm supposed to mown the lawn.

[CaptainInsano]

Carnifex

Just impress the chicks with your elbow bending thing!

[Carnifex]

haha that rather makes them go "ugh" and turn away.

[corky13]

Hey Carnifex we should found a "Anonymous Virgins" Group
...or drink ourselves under the table and join the AA`s instead *lmao*

I have about 50 birthmarks on my body..mostly at my arms and back but funnily almost nothing at my legs :D altough these fellows are mostly very small , some are rather big and they look kinda nasty ^^)

At my sportive times i warm up for sparring by punching and kicking against walls.

I love to play hakisack (sp ?) altough Im not very good at it.

I love to go to the movies :)

I tend to sing to almost every Metal Song..even if i don`t know the exact text...(e.g. In Flames , Blind Guardian etc. ... )

[Carnifex]

i think atm i'm more down for the "av" than the "aa"...been drinking quite heavy those last weekends already...

[glikster]

I've broken two bones.... neither of them mine.
One classmate's elbow (in two places) in high school. And one opponent's leg during a basketball game.

I'm shy, but have to talk to people I don't know at work. I also generally despise most people I don't know. :shrug:

[darth massacre]

ME? I don't have anything interesting to tell.


- I like sprite.

[Carnifex]

i have very few (true) friends and a hard time making new ones that really accept me as i am.

[Steph Laberis]

Yeah Forest, that's why I thought you hated me when I first met ya... ^_^

Ok, for me:

-I ate dog biscuits on a daily basis when I was 3. Later on in life, that fact came back to haunt me in the form of a barking Spiderman.

-I've got a tattoo on my ankle. It's s'posed to be the kanji script for "ambition" but it looks more like a ship's anchor. Damn.

-Some of you know already I'm not shy. What you don't know is that I have a really hard time trusting anyone beyond the realm of "casual friend".

-I have scholiosis. Amazingly, people say I have really good posture, but it makes my right shoulder drop, my right hip unnaturally wide (angle-wise) and my butt stick out.

-I have screwed up ankles and short tendons, so I walk toe-to-heel rather than heel-to-toe, which accounts for the scholiosis. I also run on the ball of my foot... which really slows me down.

-I was on the MTV Beach House back in 1996 and talked to Geraldo Rivera there... I was such a prude that I was too afraid to wear a bathing suit, so I wore shorts and a vest. Go me.

-I used to have long hair past my arse, but I cut all off it because I was mad at my Mom. Thank god I ended up liking it.

-First kiss was on a train leaving Boston, right after an Aerosmith concert on New Year's. My ex was shocked I didn't smack him across the face...

-I lived in a haunted house for 6 years. Nothing like icy, invisible fingers on your face as a child!

Other than that, I'm your standard product of a divorced white middle-class family with a love for chocolate and trees.

[Ssenkrah Semaj]

-I ate dog biscuits on a daily basis when I was 3. Later on in life, that fact came back to haunt me in the form of a barking Spiderman.


Cool I still do. I've eaten all types of dogfood treats, canned, biscuits......biscuits are my fav still eat em to trip friends out.

-I love pizza crust and the ends of shrimp which no one seems to eat even though they are completely eddible???

-I also eat chicken bones especially those from buffalo wings. Nothing like hanging out with friends ordering some buffalo wings then seeing their faces when I start cracking chicken bones inside my mouth :teeth:

-I had what I believed were two underdevloped nipples until I cut them off with a toe nail clipper, which hurt like a MF.

-I have never broken or sprained a bone in my entire life, from which the knowledge of my friends nicknamed me wolverine (unbreakable bones and all).

-The first movie that drew me to tears was Mission with Robert Deniro I was 9.

-Whenever I see a woman with facial hair I immediately shave off any that I have.

[Red_Rook]

umm

i have stitch scars on my lip from where i smashed my face on a flower pot when i was 3, broken flower pot from one side, teeth from the other cut clean through my lip. I had to be restrained to have it sewn, but apparently as soon as they were done i jumped up and like went off to play.

i uhh i tend to drum my feet when im bored, but never when im nervous or excited.

i sleep with the window open for aslong as possible, like it has to be snowing outside before i close it.


im boring, as you have just determined from the above post \o/

i thrive in incredibly hot humid weather, while i watch everyone else collapse \o/

oh and fox i havent had a bath in about a year and a half :D

[Carnifex]

i almost constantly drum some rhythm on the desk or whatever surface i can smack-drives my sisters nuts at times.
i've never been in a fight.
i've never been slapped by a girl either.
i have beaten up friends of mine already and once threw a tabletennis racket after one of them with full force but luckily didn't hit him. the racket broke though.
i didn't drink anything seriously before being mid 17.
i've tried smoking once but found it to be extremely disgusting and stopped after the first nip.
i always remember everything i did during heavy drinking-never have forgotten anything.
i've never felt sick "the morning after"-only once i had a slightly void feeling in my stomach.
i'm currently drinking too much on weekends. (no sickness though)

hahaha, how cute. I just hope you don't wake up one morning and find yourself missing an arm or leg. :P

[glikster]

Well if it's weird injuries we're talking about...

I fell directly onto a bonfire, rolled out and got up on my own, and was then offered watermelon by a friend of mine. On the cab ride to the clinic (this was in Israel) my mother called, and I told her that I was accompanying someone who fell into a fire and burned himself. It was only after I saw the doctor and was told it was a second degree burn that I called her back and told her.

[light]

-The first time I tried smoking was when I was 9 (didnt try anymore)
-We used to own a grape field so I have drank a crapload of wine
-I have had 5 concussions (sp?) First one was in grade one, when I slipped and hit my head on the corner of a stair, then in second grade... I dont remember lol, then in 3rd grade I hit my head on a radioator, 4th grade, I beleive I just fell, not sure, and again in grade 8 when I fainted and hit my head on cement. Luckily that was the only time I was bleeding. Im extremely lucky because all of those were on the back of my head and I havent had any serious injuries.
-Ive moved about 5 times.
-Ive driven with a car from ontario canada to arizona once both ways, and once we stayed in arizona :(.

Anyway, it would have worked fine if it weren't for those stupid rocks some moron surrounded the fire with. :bashful:

[Marko Djurdjevic]

What is true, what is a lie? :confident

[blankslatejoe]

Due to an obscure british law, I was born on british soil and not in an american military base, and thus can claim british citizenship if I want..

I also don't have a birth certificate..

[Uziel]

I don't like wasps either but i don't scream like a girl
I've got stung by a wasp in the back of my neck. Made me choke, doctor gave me 3 shots in the neck. So thats 4 "needles" in my neck in 1 hour.

[Matt Smith]

I have a twin brother, which some of you know.

My hair is the biggest its ever been.

I try to exercise and eat well. (damn chocolate and cookies)

I meditate and do yoga.

I have never destroyed my art work before I dont think, but I always think my work is never good enough.

I wish I had a job instead of being in school a second time. Therefore, since i want to leave I must work my ass off.

Unfortunately I am addicted to videogames as well, more the online ones than anything else. Maybe I should delete guild wars for alittle bit...

I wish I was more outgoing.

[Matt Smith]

One more thing, when I was younger, I used to be able to control my dreams for the most part, what ever I wanted to dream about I could, if i wanted godzilla in my dream, he was there, if it was super mario, he was there. Unfortunately now its harder for me to do that because I think about real life way too much and I think my lack of creativity the last who knows how many years is due to that.

[vigostar]

ummm,
- Im half Puerto Rican (dad) and half Ecuadorian (mom)
- I went to college for one semester and failed three out of the four classes because I never handed in one assignment and the only reason the one teacher passed me (communications class) was because I knew all the answers about movies
- I dont have any pets. Had a cat when I was young but, had to give it away because they found out I was allergic
- I had a technology class when I was in junior high and me and my team mate were the only team in the class to successfully complete all the assignments and the first to complete the final assignment (create a working robot from legos) in the last 12 years of him teaching.
- I love to play pool.
- Used to be a pretty good handball player (and I have the tropheys to prove it).
- I work for a very prestigious law firm as a receptionist/ confrence center coordinator.
- I love cars.. Especially imports!

Thanks for reminding me.

I left home, well, was booted out at 16.

When I got my first appartment, I didn't know the first thing about economising. I spent most of my paycheque on paint and brushes, and had to make a tasty soup out of onion peelings, salt and pepper.

When I started seeing angels at the end of my bed, I phoned my sister for help

My soup wasn't fit to piss in

Her food was delicious

ROFL :teeth:

lol! The inaugural support group meeting must be handled veeeeery delicately to avoid any hint of confusion

EDIT: I should point out that the lionlove picture isn't my own work. I found it on Google. YES, I was looking for pictures of the noble beasts doing what god intended.

[M.C.Barrett]

I don't go anywhere without something to draw on.
The first recognizable image I ever drew was a tiger.
I have been a hard science fiction elitist since I was 11.
I do not drink alcoholic beverages- the alcohol fumes repel me at very low concentrations.
I will live to see the 22nd century.
I am approximately 70% as hairy as Robin Williams.
I take my coffee black, brewed with ground cinnamon and cloves, only in the evening- never in the morning.
I do not own or play console or PC games.
It is my goal, before the year is out, to completely design a cinematic production of Frank Herbert's Dune.
I am an automotive industry/design/marketing fan, in the same way many people are ssports fans.
On an unconscious level, I like the smell of skunks.

[Groove Zombie]

Hmmm...

-I am, like many here, kinda shy. Not horribly so, however, as I can get along just find with small groups of people (and the opposite sex, thankfully :teeth: ).

-I am allergic to NOTHING. I am invincible!

-I have cut open my chin in the same place on the same 20 foot-tall spiral slide back in elementary school. First time I needed 18 stitches, second time I needed 8. The second time happened almost exactly one year after the first.

-This one's for you, Exo. I hate, hate, HATE mothes. It's not really a phobia, I just actively hunt them down and slaughter them. They're just so disgusting and dirty... yech! My weapons of choice are an Airsoft gun and a Louisville Slugger.

-I am developing a bunion (sp?) on my left big toe. The joint is all out of whack and bent at a crazy angle.

-I am an aspiring ninja. The crazy modern not-so-realistic kind with the long flowing red scarf and all. Death to Pirates! :ninja:

-I used to have a couple of those rubber ninjas, but then I lost them and can't find another candy machine that sells them. There's a web site out there somewhere that has a ton of them and sells them at retail price. I'll dig up the link if I can find it, but I also believe that there was a link on Ninja Burger's site at one time or another, probably still there somewhere.

-I'm 18 years old and have never smoked, tried any kind of drug, drank, or anything of that sort. Not really all that special, I know plenty of people who are 'straight-edge' as they say, but I'm still in the minority I think. I may be missing out on something fun or whatever, but I don't care :teeth:

-I like knives, knives of all kinds. They're just neat.

-I collect Aces, mostly the spades, and Jokers from card decks. The collection is small now, but anytime I see an interesting one, I keep it.

-I hate talking on the phone, and constantly avoid calling people if I can do so.

-I am a leg man. Breasts and asses are nice and all but really nothing is better than long, beautiful legs.

-While I have decent luck with women, I do tend to go into that no-man's land of 'just a friend' often. I am also currently VERY available, ladies :wink:... roit... anyway.

-This one is VERY obvious if you know me in real life, but along with my dad and grandfather, I am a very argumentative person. When all three of us get together... it's not a pretty sight. Even in arguments that have only two sides to them, one of us WILL find another side to it, just so they don't have to argee with one of the other two.

-I want a pet chamelion, who I will name Comrade Bruslav. He will be red in colour, and will wear a fuzzy fur hat with a large red star on the front. He will be my best friend.

-I love cheese, but it makes me sick if I eat too much at one time. It's not a lactose thing, as I drink milk by the gallons, it's just an odd little thing.

-I can't stand my coffee any way but black.

That's it I think... most of it is rather mundane stuff, but might be kinda interesting to some. Cheers.

[cotron]

-I have drank a crapload of wine
-I have had 5 concussions

- Although i often score with the Ladies, i'm still a virgin that is waiting for the one (Yes, i'm a guy, NO i''m not gay)

- I'm a guy and straight, but I don't like cars and driving them. Cars are only interesting if they can transform into robots

- I really, really like beer

- I'm really competitive. My brother has the same problem. Playing fighting games against often results in playing for hours and hours because neither of us wants to quit except if he won the last match.

well, that was about it,

Robert

- I've read all the Harry Potter books. I secretly have a crush on Hermoine Granger.

- The first character I ever played as in Street Fighter II was Zangief, because he was big & buff.

- When I was 2 years old, my baby sitter sat me up on the kitchen stove (she thought it was off). It was actually on, and left a permanent burn on my butt. The stove had a spiral shaped electric burner (like the masquito repellent), so to this day, my ass has a giant spiral on it.

- If I could witness any moment in history, it would be the assassination of Juilus Caesar.

- I've only had one girlfriend my whole life so far.

- Once when I was a kid, I drank a capful of clorox bleach. When it touched my touch, I immediately vommited it out. To this day, my tounge is slightly bleached.

[blankslatejoe]

one last medical one for me, I forgot about earlier,

-I have/had a hyperactive immune system. YES this means I was all wolveriney, or I used to be before it became a problem.. doctors put me on immunodepressants for years to literally SHUT OFF my immune system after that...it sucked, it would take weeks to heal from a simple papercut and I always had a cold.

-I have four little sisters, and an older brother.

[Jessica Hook]

-there is inbreeding on both sides of my family
-I have 1 brother, and 5 step-brothers (no sisters :( )
-When I was younger, I was prone to head injuries & emegency room visits. The doctors thought my parents were abusing me.
-When I was young, my brother accidently knocked my front teeth out with a metal baseball bat. They were baby teeth, so I had a gap in my smile until my permanent teeth grew in, years & years later.
-I have a scar under my eyebrow from where my brother hit me with the horn of his Protoceratops transformer, lacerating my eye as well.
-When I was 14yrs old I fell & hit my head so hard I got a concussion with temporary amnesia & short term memory loss. For example, I couldn't remember where people keep their clothes (like in a dresser or in the closet), when I finally found them, I couldn't remember how to put them on.

I am a mirror identical twin and my other half already posted that.

I have never smoked but every single member of my family uses tobacco.

I was raised Catholic but haven't been to church in ten years.

I have attended two different colleges and accumulated 25k debt, just to play college baseball, blowing off academic studies left and right.
I gave up on a life long dream of becoming a baseball player last year.
I can throw a baseball about 87 mph and I'm only 5'8".
I played on a National Champion club baseball team.

I still dream about baseball several times a week and it sucks.

I learned that about concept artists after visiting the job section of Acclaim's website about 10 years ago and decided that's what I wanted to do if I did not become a baseball star.

[thirdeye]

- I get easily addicted to strategy games, such as Sims, SimCity, Civilization or Age of Empires.


Not sure if this one is true but same goes for me - especially for the old time turn-based strategies like X-com series, Civilization, I'm also a mad fan of Jagged Alliance series. Playing Civ3:Conquests (while waiting for Civ4) is the main reason for not drawing or learning for my exams too much lately.

When I was a kid (about 7) I was bitten by a dog who also bit my younger brother twice (and by bitting I don't mean one short catch on the ankle but massive bitting with muscles toring, lots of blood, screaming and crying etc.) the same dog also spilled boilng water on me when I was little (bout 4-5). I have huge scars from both.

I've never broken any bone.

About 10 months ago I had to pack in 5 minutes and move out. Find a job etc. I'm now happier than I ever was.

I can bend my left hand thumb the way that makes everone go : YUCK!!!

I'm a definte ass and feet man :perv:

one more thing noone knows about me, is that iam addicted to Döner!! Döner is a türkish fast food deilcacy, which is very well known in Germany. I dont know if you guys know it over there in the States.

[glikster]

Um.... I used to walk around town with a sword cane.
Long before that I used to walk around town with a Ka-Bar.
Now I only walk around town with a Spyderco Civilian.



But I'm friendly and harmless! :overhere:

[Steph Laberis]

Hah, these are gettin' good!

A couple more blurbs:

-When I was 14 I placed 4th in Massachusetts for Nintendo Powerfest '93... the other finalists, who were all men, were all older teens and guys in their 20s... EXCEPT for the 9 year old girl that beat us all.

-I've been bitten by a dog once, it was my own dog, and she got me right in my left cheek (on my face! I don't have a cool spiral scar on my butt to show)

-as a child, I was TERRIFIED OF THESE GUYS:
http://flyingclam.com/photos/martians.jpg

...to the point where I was convinced they lived under my bed, in my closet, came through my walls at night and spied on me at night for their hideous martian research.

-In a related blurb, I also slept with a night light until I was 13.

[Gnosis]

What is true, what is a lie? :confident


- I had a heart seizure due to alcohol abuse at the age of 24. My heart had to be revived with electro shocks, as it was stuck in the rhythm of a 75-year old. The doctors forbid me to ever drink alcohol again. I did not stop yet.



Hehe, I hope this isn't true. I would think at least 2/3 of the other statements are true though.

[glikster]

-as a child, I was TERRIFIED OF THESE GUYS:

I LOVE those guys!! Can you remind me what they say? Is it "yip"?
The Muppet Show rocks!!

[hariz_otaku87]

Hmm, I never turn off the lights when sleeping till I were 13(same as willow-whisp)

Im a quick temper kind of person at home and never relaxed. The weird thing is, when Im out or with my friends, I seem to relax and the most patient guy.

Im shy in real-life. Though not surprising.

Todays my birthday. Now give me Intuos 2 or whatever its called!!

and many more...

[blankslatejoe]

happy birthday!

http://flyingclam.com/photos/martians.jpg


Hahaha, one of my best friends is exactly the same way! He says he was always afraid they were going to open up their huge gobs and swallow him! I don't remember ever being afraid of them though.

And glikster...I think it was "yob" or "yop". It was an "awww" sound, whatever it was.

[MoP]

I have a large blue quill pen.

I still think the first Mechwarrior game (for DOS) was the best of the series.

My family had a PC before we ever had a TV ... got our first TV set in 2000, if I remember rightly. :perv:

I've never owned a games console or handheld of any sort.

I play guitar and drums ... my guitar collection currently totals 4 1/2 (one's halfway built).

I live in the UK but work for an American company, and my girlfriend is in Canada.

I'd really like to drive a Jaguar XJS, but it'll never happen.

I can write mirrored text with my left hand (I'm right-handed).

My first (proper) kiss was with a member of these forums! :dur:

At Heathrow Airport before flying to San Francisco for the workshop in January, I was sitting within 2 metres of 2 other CA members (Calle and RES), and it took us all about 5-10 minutes to realise this.

I don't draw anywhere near as much as I should, mainly because I'm posting useless info in threads like these!

Back to work!

[Steph Laberis]

And glikster...I think it was "yob" or "yop". It was an "awww" sound, whatever it was.

No no guys, it was in fact "yip". We called 'em yip-yips and if any of my guy friends make yip-yip noises, my skin crawls and I seriously get anxious.

Keep in mind, Skeksis, Schnookums (the big brown hairy monster from the Muppet Show) and other Henson delights never phased me as a kid (not even Bowie in Labrynth!). Just the yip yips and that weird orange on Sesame Street that sang "Carmen" with a rubber band for a mouth.

[GhostofMacbeth]

My friend went as one of those sesame street things for Halloween a few years ago ... Many women found him extremely cute and wanted hugs. He couldn't see a thing. This led to an incident with him talking to this girl dressed (if you could say it) as a dominatrix with the tinyiest leather bikini that I have ever seen (leather or otherwise) ... He couldn't see what she was wearing and he leaned forward until he was inches away from her privates. I think I could see his blush through the costume as he stammered and backed a hasty retreat into a lamp post. It was quite amusing. :}

I loved those guys.

I used to have the Muppet Show Theme Song as my ringer.

[Sorknes]

- I am a girl, which seems to be something easily not noticed.

- I got my first tablet yesterday, an Intous 3, and the only thing that comes out even remotely decent is the B&W stuff since I've always been a pencil .

- I just can't draw with mechanical pencils. I need wooden.

- After I did my "nosejob" two weeks ago (medical stuff, not plastic fantastic stuff), I've produced more bodily fluids in that part of me than I ever thought was possible. Snot mixed with blood and puss is not fun, especially when you're not allowed to blow your nose at all.

- After I had my first sneeze after the operation, I decided never to bang my nose in the wall ever.

- I had geese as pets when a kid.

- I went into the army just because I was fleeing from university. Still have some nice exam papers though.

- I barely used skirts before the army, after the army I use it whenever I can.

- I am too short to EVER have sexy legs. They look like timber.

- I did ballroom dance on a sport level, with prizes and all.

- At the same time I did ballroom dance, I did soccer and handball. No wonder my muscles are built weird.

- I'm easily addicted to everything that's not drugs or alcohol. Give me a game, a book or a brain puzzle, and I WILL NOT LET IT GO!

- I don't do online games. Never. I know if I start, I won't be able to pull myself out again. Only gaming online is set up games that has an ending between friends.

- I don't do drugs. I'm born this way. Or they didn't catch me when I was born, so I hit the floor. Or something.

- I drink alcohol, smoke, swear, and all the other things that girls aren't supposed to do, and my granddad loves me to death for it.

- When teenager I got easily agitated over the smallest things, and wouldn't let it go if it tried to march away. Now I just tip over a couple of times a year, but it's still not a pretty sight.

- I have the amazing super power of being a person that's able to scare the shit out of my bosses when things get tough at work. Thankfully I'm mostly all pleasant and smiles. Mostly.

[Groove Zombie]

You know Willow, same thing happened to me when I was something like 9 or 10 years old. My old dog bit me right on the left cheek, and when I smile you can see a small scar from the puncture wound.

[Daunting]

- I have one Rooster and one just died a little while ago. Their names were Dinner and Brunch. Dinner kept eating all of Brunch's food so he died a few weeks ago. And I'm highly considering spray painting him black and writing massive black on his side. He's a big cock.

- I quit art for about 4 years because of a terrible 6th grade art teacher that made me loath my art. She was so bad, i would be a prodigy by now lol.

- I found out about CA less than a week after the Austin workshop. And Austin is less than a 3 mile drive. Can sometimes get there in 2. So pissed...

- And here's the most interesting of all, I don't have many interesting things about me. Lol I R WinnAR.

[Mike Frank]

I keep having these dreams where I stumble across conceptart.org people having a get together. In one I was on vacation somewhere, I come strolling through the hotel lobby and I see all these people just sitting around on the steps sketching. I asked somebody if they were from conceptart and found out that there was some big workshop that I had somehow missed out on and tomorrow was going to be the last day of the WS. So I ran up to my room to grab my sketchbook and was contemplating ditching my family and spending a few hundred dollars just so I could get in on the last day..

[glikster]

- I found out about CA less than a week after the Austin workshop. And Austin is less than a 3 mile drive. Can sometimes get there in 2. So pissed...
Dude.... how can it sometimes be a 2 mile drive if it's almost 3 miles? That would be very cool if you could do that! :wink:

He's obviously got a Flux Capacitor on his car.

[0kelvin]

I loved those Sesame Street guys! I always used to go around going "yip-yip-yip-yip-yip-yip, B-RIIIING! B-RIIIING!" Now the guys from Labyrinth that took their limbs off, those guys were scary puppets.

I still have dreams were it's the first day of high school and I don't know where any of my classes are.

Last night I had a dream that my boss was the leader of a cult. And he was going to take us all into this basement room with a creepy old dentist's chair and break every bone in our body to steal the marrow or something. Then I woke up and said, "Well, that's what I think about him." And then today I got a phone call that my boss has the money he owes me and wants me to come back to work...

[Carnifex]

i love songs with a energetic beat or a energetic bassline.
i once dreamt someone dropped acid on my face and made me fall into a swimming pool full of it.
i was an outsider the first two or three years of highschool.
i can't get drunk if there aren't any people around i know. if i know nobody,it's no fun to get drunk. as i have a hard time approaching people that makes me pretty dependant.
though i'm blond i don't get sunburnt that easy. i only had one bad sunburn so far in my life.
i can't stop posting on this thread.

[IceMoon]

When Vanilla Ice pops up in my playlist, I often playback the whole song, like right now :rolleyes:

[Carnifex]

i sometimes like "girly" music,like spice girls,destiny's child,sugababes or all saints. but only seldom.
i currently can't stop re-listening to beastie boys' "ch-check it out".
i never manage to go to bed before midnight these days because of threads like these.
i still can't stop posting in this thread.

[acuna_read]

I am normally an extremely quiet law abiding person who wouldnt hurt a fly. However when im ridng my motorbike I have no concern for my personal safety or taffic laws and regualrly "dice" with traffic. It's good fun at high(ish) speeds. I also have no problems with damaging or removing part's of people's cars that I feel have in some way offended me.

I should really save the wing mirrors!

P.S. DO NOT cut me up :confident

Edit: Im also in going to make and fit a flip-up numberplate to my bike so I can not be caught by speed cameras!

Ok, make that "I don't do illegal drugs." According to laws of Norway, at least. Which is something girls are supposed to do, I'd guess, eating speed taking off weight.

Oh, and another thing you didn't know about me is that I've had a hellish day, which I can see is just seeping all the way through my post, I'm usually much more pink and fluffy and smiling, but in that post I was basically.... dry. And still am, it seems.

*goes eat chocky to get happy happy hormones*

[Zord]

I don't want to say too much about myself but...
this is for Cotron and Prehistoric, and anyone else that listens to indie rock [new/old]-

I've got a radio show that i've been doing for about 2 years, and all of you CA'ers can listen tonight [well, it's Wednesday right now], at 9-12 PM (eastern time zone). Fugazi always makes a regular appearance, as does Primal Scream, Sonic Youth, and the Stooges so you get the feeling of what the show is. Website's at www.wriu.org, and there's a link to listen. [shameless self promoting off]

-Ownzord

[glikster]

All I listen to during the day is Tool and The Who.
This has just as much to do with how much I like their music as it does with the fact that I was too lazy to transfer the rest of my music collection to my work computer.

[BRAT_777]

I was expelled from Amador High School for fighting, and I ended up in juvenile hall in San Leandro for 2 weeks. I Eventually ended up at a continuation high school, which I really loved.

I sing pretty good, when I am in the shower.

I talk to my cat, and myself alot.

Pigs in people clothing scare the shit out of me. I was terrified of animal farm when I was a kid.

-When I was young, my brother accidently knocked my front teeth out with a metal baseball bat. They were baby teeth, so I had a gap in my smile until my permanent teeth grew in, years & years later.


lol, that happened to three of my brothers as well! :D (not by baseballbat.. but they did fuck up their baby teeth..) i guess having 7 brothers in one family gets a little out of control at times. :wink:

Some stuff about me.

-I'm not German, I'm a Bulgarian born US citizen from San Francisco studying medicine in Germany. And I want to go back to San Francisco... (well, ok, Marin County, but close enough)

-I love being alone. It is very relaxing to have nobody around, and just be able to do what you want without having to take others into account.

-I'm shy, and don't open up until I get to know someone well. This has left me without any real friends for the last 2 years, not helped by the fact that I can't speak German well enough for a decent social conversation, and I can't stand looking like an idiot, so I keep my mouth shut.

-When I was a little kid I would freak out over bugs. There was an incident when I was 4 where I went into hysterics at the sight of a rolly-polly that had somehow gotten into the living room. It went away though, except that I still don't like spiders. But then again, most people don't.

-I am an AWP .

-I have an inch long scar on my right thumb that has been there since I was maybe 2 or 3. I have no idea how it got there, though I have my suspicions.

-I am a total nightowl. I feel much more... right... staying up until 4:00 am, than I do waking up early. I hate waking up early, and it thrown off my whole day.

Some few things that no one knows, cuz no one knows me here....

- I have a vary accurate sense of telling if people are trustworthy, liers, or what type of person they are after the first converstation I have with someone. It has to be face to face, not internet IMs, or over the phone. I cant really explain it, do you guys even follow me?

- Ive never had a bloody nose in my life

- Ive never broke a bone in my body

- I hate using the phone

- I dont like cake products (i.e. Cake, muffins, cup cakes, hoe hoes, twinkeys, zebra cakes) except cookies, but I think thats a class all in its self.

- I come off as a shy person, but I actually just like listening to people talk, except over the phone, and I hate radio talk.

- I enjoy watching children, and I mean in a non stalker way

- I used to sneak out at night just to go walking around town by my self. I would sometimes go to a local coffee shop that would be open 24/7 if I had the money (You had to buy something, couldnt just sit around). They would sometimes play live music.

- Ive never had a crush on a girl, never had a kiss, or slept with anyone. But how I love looking at them! :teeth:

- Ive never done any drugs in my life,

- Rarly do I get upset, or sad. Im just way to laxed.

- Im filipino, mexican, and a large mixture of white...

- After I got out of middle school (8th grade) I went and took my GED. My spelling and grammer prove it. :D

- I sleep on the floor

- I need a back rub bad ... Anyone willing?

[Steph Laberis]

...wow. With all of you guys seeing eachother naked, it appears I've been missing out on something big at the CA workshops...

...I've seen the boxer shorts of 3 CA members. Not half as cool I guess... or as creepy.

I'll toss in a couple more tidbits:

-Speaking of naked, I did see a naked celebrity once (and it wasn't a photomanip!). Pity it was Shari Lewis... my retinas still ache from time to time.

-I've had crushes on cartoon characters before, and I still get 'em every now and then. The weirdest ones include Norman from Mighty Max , Hardtop from C.O.P.S. , Raphael from TMNT , Sizzle from Stunt Dawgs and even Princess Sally from Sonic the Hedgehog . We won't speak of the Batman obsession.

-When I was in middle school, I wanted noting more than to be a super hero. And have a robot dog like Rush from Mega Man.

-Knock on wood, 9 years of having my driver's license and never had a single accident. Tickets, on the other hand...

[stoph]

I get easily addicted to strategy games, such as Sims, SimCity, Civilization or Age of Empires.


the Sims. yes, i can see how that can compare to the strategy of AOE :S hehe :P

[stoph]

ive read every calvin and hobbes cell known to man. well, that was up until about 5 years ago. when i was 6 years old i made every one of his inventions (the transmogrifier being my personal fave), with all the correct equipment and everything to spec. it didnt work but anyone will tell you i spent hours just using my imagination. oh, and when my mum did the washing i would get a pair of my dads jeans and manage to fit my whole self inside them. my head would be the only thing poking out. oh joy.

When I was young, my parents would always go across the border and buy their gas in Washington (it was far, far cheaper back then). My parents would always say that we were going to the States for gas, so for years I thought the US was a gas station. I had no idea there was a whole country down there!

I can make bird noises and throw my voice. I do it in class all the time. It's awesome.

I'm not shy as I was in a band for a long time, but I do hate crowds and loud things unless I'm at a show. I was in a band and have a Marshall Stack. Me = dumb??

I'm dependant on Chinese food. Really.

If anyone listens to NOFX, I hit Fat Mike in the face with a poncho... earlier that day I did the same to a security guard with my fist... reflexes are weird.

I was almost arrested for having milk in a brown paper bag at 2 in the morning.

I hate all vegetables that resemble tress: broccolli, asparagus, colliflower... I don't even know how to spell them.

In 3rd grade I was stabbed 5 times with an ice pick.

I have a cat named Gibson. He's a doctor.

List goes on an on... we should have a coolest injuries thread or something...

lots and lots of bands, i was at a show almost every week or so
i saw the dc bands a lot- the suspects, the goons, the spitfires, lickity split, frodus

i went to a mix of punk, ska, and hardcore shows, I never really discriminated between the three... some of the better bands I saw were hepcat, the slackers, battery, h2o, bane, the unseen, the casualties, hatebreed, kid dynamite(!!!), us bombs, darkest hour, AFI before they were big.... more than I can remember....guhhh. like I said, a lot of bands. my hearing is gonna suck when i get old. it was a very fun time in my life though, wouldn't trade it for anything.

Kid Dynamite is amazing! None More Black (Jason's new band) is pretty damn boss. I like all of those bands, my hearing already sucks. Right ear = shot from practice. God Bless Jim Marshall.

Oi.

Holy shit!!! That's fecking awesome!!!!!!
I'm killing myself not to laugh out loud at work. And it's early here, so it's veeeerrrry quiet...

Oh yeah...er...<quickly thinks of on-topic comment>...I used to be very irritable in the morning...to the point that when my roommate (who was a morning person) bugged me one morning, I took my crowbar (everyone should have a crowbar) and SLAMMED it against the frame of the bunkbed, like an inch from his skull.
He didn't talk to me for close to a week... ah... bliss.... :rendered:

1. I've moved 35 times in my 25 years

5. I am a home repair addict

[0kelvin]

25 1/4 inches!

If you've ever felt the need to measure your head, that's probably a good indicator you have a huge head.

Was it May 16th 2002 in Molde or something? It must have been either that or May 1st?

Good guesses, but no, it was in school. Atleast i think it was. It must have been.

Anyways.. you dont have our school photo do you? We could photoshop away all the others and post it in the "what does everyone look like" thread, to show people how handsome we were back then!

[0kelvin]

I haven't found a cap that fits me very well. When I wear a hat I usually wear a toque (or whatever you call it in the US). I need to find a good summer hat, though.

I've had breakfast with George H.W. Bush. I had Honey Bunches of Oats; he had toast and a grapefruit. On another occasion, I flew him to his airport. I have nothing to do with politics (other than having strong, ill-found opinions based on my emotional state).

I never learned to drive because of my bad temper. When I was a teenager, someone laughed at my attempts to learn and I lost it and chased him with the car...right up a flight of steps, across a porch and through his front door...and wall...

I did political cartoons during the 60-70s underground era.

I have been shot, stabbed, and beaten multiple times, was in at least 15 street fights when I was a kid, survived an explosive accident of my own doing, survived four massive car wrecks, fallen off a five story building, been hit by a police car head-on and thrown forty feet, jumped off a 40-foot cliff into a metal scrap yard, jumped from a bridge onto a moving train...

and never suffered a single broken bone until last year when I tripped over one of the cats and smashed my toes into a table.

I know how to make a classic zip gun...and have, more than once.

I collect stamps, and I'm one of only seven people in the United States who can identify a particular set of counterfeits of Hungarian Stamps on sight, without reference. (I'm writing a book on them right now.)

I'm a mod/admin for a dirty comics site. :)

I love brussels sprouts, cabbage, turnips, rutabagas and brocolli...

I've been sewing (hand and machine) and doing classic embroidery since I was a seven years old.

I've had one book published...for stamp collectors who use a computer.

I'm the only living witness to two mob bombings (saw the 'splosions, not the do-ers...), one of which leveled a seven-story commercial building.

Sat and listened to the rain bounce off the window glass with composer John Cage once for about an hour. He spent the time explaining how music exists everywhere to me. It was one of the greatest, most memorable times of my life. He died less than a year later.

I get a really nasty ingrown toe nail every couple years...

- i eat as much as 4 normal people would per meal... i'm 1'80m and 80 kg...

- i used to set traps in my neighbourhood....

- once me and a friend stole a trailer and drove around with it...one stearing and one handling acceleration and brake... we were young.

- i see "ghosts" occationally

- i have a IQ of ~125

- i hate seeing myself on photos...

[Advocate of Fate]

this is like a really sick, twisted dating service.

that being said:
-I'm 16, but my ID says I'm 19, and never act either age.
-I'm straight, but I'm really really fruity (no, im not a metro or a transvesdite, im just crazy).
-I'm socially retarded. I grew up not having many friends and being the last one picked, so now I'm subconciously trying to make up for it by acting like a complete ass. My childhood has left scars, so most people think I'm a couple crayons short of a box
-Despite all that, Im real shy, but loud.
-I'm a musician, genetically. I can harmonize and play by ear, almost to the exact note. Im a self taught guitarist of 5 years and counting, and I also played the drums for 3 years, but didn't like it.
-I can also sing/grunt, along the lines of what ShatteredHalo349 can do, but more defined and audible.
-Going with the past two, I cant read a single note of music.
-I have trouble making relationships (yeah ladies, the man's single. And sexy)
-I hate my art.
-I suffer from severe amotivation[sp] syndrome
-I have an addictive personality.
-I get myself into patterns and trends, where I do something once and cant stop doing it for months on end. Right now, I can't stop listening to Between the Buried and Me. There's no changing it, no way around it.
-I'm deathly afraid of the Hospital, and doctors in general.
-I've never broken a bone, short of stress fractures and busted knuckles (I snowboard and used to skate)
-I'm also afraid of deep, open waters, or not being able to see the bottom.
-I have some completely irrational fears too. I panic whenever I see a bee. I dont trust large, unsupported structures (walkways with bridges, roller coasters, etc.)
-I suffer from clinically diagnosed vertigo...and I'm a part time roofer.
-I had a misdiagnosed allergy to glutose as a young child, which meant I couldnt eat wheat. I pretty much starved myself until I got a renalysis at the age of 11. turns out I was never allergic. Now I am, and probably always will be a skinny SOB.
-I wear girls clothing on occasion. Guys clothes are way too tight.
-I overanalyze every situation, which leads to me missing out on pretty much every once-in-a-lifetime event.
-I despise where I live, I want to live in Europe (my heart is in Greece). Im far too socially dependant to make the move though, my life is here.
-I abhor sports of all kinds, short of independant activities ( like snowboarding and bowling)
-I have a horrible relationship with my dad, for no reason at all.
-I, like ShatteredHalo349 (damn we're alike) , have Hitchhiker's thumb. I broke my left thumb on top of that, so I can bend it to roughly 105 degrees, I've measured it.
-I recently got sunburn so bad my skin was falling off in chunks. It was diagnosed as severe second degree burns. Damn my pasty skin!
-When prompted on remembering something, I have an impossible time trying to remember it. However, prior to the question, or much after it, I'll have no problem recalling said event or information, which is why all the above is probably disjointed. I'll probably think of more stuff later.

Hmmm...ok..

- My big toes point upwards like an elf.

- I crashed my motorcycle after only riding for two weeks, which was subsequently two weeks before my wedding.

- I went to an East LA Cinco de Mayo street festival, accidently, and was mistaken for a Mexican.

- Since 9/11, I have not flown anywhere without getting pulled out of line to be checked by security???
