I'm allergic to Christmas Trees. Seriously
Hey penguin I read your bio and I just want to say: please don't kill yourself. I don't know what your going through, but I love you and care about you!
Load More Replies...That is... actually very common! Must be kinda hard for Christmas though
I was sick, had ear infections every Christmas season when I was a kid. I was like 4 when my mother finally realised it was the live Christmas trees that were making me sick. I'm allergic to everything that grows in nature, when it it cut and dying. Some chemical it puts off, apparently. Always fun in a car with the windows down when someone's cut their grass or cut down trees or burning leaves....
My daughter is, too, to fake ones. The one we have gives her hives when she touches it.
My dad is. It was years before we knew. My grandad was a Dr and figured it out one Christmas as Dad slowly got stuffed up as the tree was always behind his recliner. Years!!! Lol Oh. And shellfish. Papaw figured that out, too. Lmao My dad has a master's degree in education. Geez.
I am the first girl born into my father's family in over 200 years! We've checked our handwritten genealogy and our DNA. The last girl born into dad's side of the family was born in 1802!
Wow! And I thought it was a lot that I was the first girl on my dad's side in 5 generations
I have gotten my nose run over by a tricycle, and nothing else. Just my nose. I was four and very stupid. Still don't know how it happened.
I'm now 63F and a portly grandma looking lady. But in my 20's I did drag racing. Legal, official, at a track, drag racing. 1/4 mile. 1970 Mustang Mach 1, 351C, 4bbl, 4 spd top loader, and 4/11 gearing in the back. Whoo doggie what fun it was to stage at the Christmas tree.
YOUR HAD A MUSTANG MACH 1??? THAT'S THE COOLEST CAR! If i ever have enough money, it is my dream car to buy! Either a vintage one, or a new one lol
Wow!!!!! How fun. I dated a guy in hs who raced. It was such fun. He and his dad still build cars.
It was yellow with the black Mach 1 striping. Rear louvers, front and rear spoilers, 1 inch anti-sway bar, 5 spoke wheels, BF Goodrich Radial TA's 50 series. Wanted the shaker set up but oh well. At that time you could still buy NOS from the Ford dealership near me. Sold it back in the late 80's to buy my first house as a solo female. Now my dream is a 1966 GT350 convertible with Pony interior. Sigh. North of 250K

Torque-y little sucker isn't it? Much better than the 351W
Load More Replies...In high school, I broke the record for the highest score the school has seen on state testing, and it was a good school education-wise. However, I have ADHD and fail to turn in my homework, so I was a B student in general classes. My test scores tended to carry me.
I am really good at taking tests really quickly but missing vital info,
I got shipwrecked once. 14 foot tinny split off the very very remote north coast of Australia. Sat on the beach hoping not to see any crocs until a plane spotted us the next day. Then the police & rangers couldn’t get to us, had to clear an overgrown road in to a beach down the coast then brave very large swell to get to our beach. Apparently there was an estuary in the next bay where the policeman had once put his entire boot in one toe of a croc’s footprint in the mud.
I was at the helm of this ship docking when we lost engine power 2eb33w2nd2...60_495.jpg
ended up in the side of a 60 foot sail boat, didn't end well for the sail boat, it didn't sink and everyone were OK but it had a massive crack, not sure if it ever sailed again.
i can’t stand it when people talk to me when there’s some sort of music playing, because i can hear the minute pitch differences and it causes dissonance between the voice and the music. it makes it very hard to watch tv, and this is also one of the reasons that i don’t like a lot of modern music because when the singer raps or speaks with their backing track, there’s microtone differences between what i’m hearing and it feels grating 😬
I was in a hospital waiting room for a neurological test for muscle response.... there were two televisions playing some HGTV show on opposite ends of the room.... and the sound had, between the two, A QUARTER SECOND DELAY and it was driving me absolutely nuts and poking my anxiety and some lovely rage for accompaniment..... so I told THREE DIFFERENT PEOPLE, including my neurologist: For God's sake, and the comfort of any neurosensitive folks, *Turn One OFF* and precisely ZERO people gave a fùck, including the neurologist who noticed that I was stressed out and agitated and after hearing my explanation, looked at me like I have three heads...... soooo much WTF
I have tried to listen to today's music and I find that a lot of times the music is louder than the singer. If that isn't bad enough, the singers sounds like they're singing through a bag of mush. I will stick with good country music. Singers can be understood and the music doesn't drown their voices.
And the artificial/enhanced bass.... people say that its soothing, but for me it incites me to FÙCK SOMETHING UP
Load More Replies...Omg this is me too. I have very good hearing when it comes to music from years of singing.
Speaking as a person who surrounds himself with music to relax, this is very sad to hear.
It's super hard for me to tune out other people's conversations, especially at places like a restaurant. I don't WANT to listen, but I can't help it. Certain people's voices, or the cadence at which they speak really irks me and makes it hard to concentrate. On the flip side, there are certain sounds in music that I love, like the vibration of a cello, or the synthesizer in funk music.
Maybe not as uncommon as I once thought. I (53/F) am asexual. I don't feel sexual attraction to others, I dislike sex and always have, and I don't have any desire to, "self-service."
Hey! You are completely valid and if anybody tells you you aren't just f**k them!! Love u, fellow LGBTQIA+ person
yoooo me too! I'm sex repulsed on top of that, so people always go "oh you should watch G̶a̶m̶e̶ o̶f̶ T̶h̶r̶o̶n̶e̶s̶ this show!" and i have to say "Too sexual/too much nudity, i couldnt handle it"
I have no clue why someone downvoted you! It is perfectly reasonable to be repulsed by sex
Load More Replies...Same! About 1% of the world is Asexual, which is 80 million people, for comparison, the popluation of Ireland it only about 0.06% of the world population
There are plenty of folks who would welcome a relationship without those particular demands (saying this for the benefit of those who are disbelieving). As long as you are upfront about it with potential partners…unfortunately some haven’t been, so it seems like they all of a sudden lose interest when the reality is there never was any.
Not always. It can create unpleasant experience occasionally.. people judging the living f**k out of u and asking u what the point of u living is mixed with if ur not aromantic and if ur sex repulsed it's difficult to get a partner who's ok with that as 2 examples
Load More Replies...I can eat a lemon without making a face This feels tame in comparison but felt like sharing ^^
So, for all of my lemon eaters, I now have a question Which is better: Eating the actual lemon or lemon flavored candies?
Lemon flavor candies because my mom doesn’t tell me how much they ruin my teeth
Load More Replies...I love to eat an entire half lemon and everyone around me just stares at me like I'm crazy
Just so you know you should try not to eat lemons excessively cuz it can melt a hole in ur stomach :)
Oh- we actually didn't know that! Thanks for telling us (not like we do lol(
Load More Replies...I can write and draw with my toes
post a drawing/line of text you wrote with them, i want to see!
I can’t rn I’m at school but I def will later!
Load More Replies...I have been in every form of media except radio, including posing for 2 paintings, being sketched by Joe Rohdes (a top disney Imagineer), a sculpture, a figurine, being in the New York Times, several books for various reasons, a top scientific journal, a presidential archive, and more. And that is just a small part of how strange my life is.
If you can find it, the History Channel's "Battlefield Detectives" series on the Battle of Monmouth, I portray Private Joseph Plum Martin. https://www.amazon.com/History-Battlefield-Detectives-Revolution/dp/B002PMVPOG
I've portrayed him in other productions as well. At 8:47, that's me. Many years ago, granted, but still me. https://youtu.be/TnYTUwhs-v4 The scene at 9:40 I had to reshoot over a dozen times because the darn musket would Not go off.
Load More Replies...Believe it or not, I'm the family dissapointment, the underachiever. Strange things and adventures just run in the family. Like the year we had a congressman (Rush Holt) call us on Thanksgiving. He wanted to know if we wanted to go metal detecting.
Load More Replies...I love when people have interesting lives like this...like dude who ARE you? (meant in the best way possible)
I mean, I could tell you my name, but it wouldn't really mean anything. I'm not a celebrity. I'm mildly recognizable at some anime conventions, and my last name is well known in historical circles. But otherwise, I'm just someone who leads an odd life. Like the fact that I'm a Kentucky Colonel. (I'm not from Kentucky.)
Load More Replies...Not in the least, quite the opposite. But I do have 'stage presence'. I stand out in a crowd, especially in any sort of costume. I've won a few costume contests, not because my costume was the best, because of sheer force of personality carrying the crowd.
Load More Replies...I've lead a very odd life. Like I learned about my secret ingredient in my recipes, a spice from Australia, while I was in Geneva Switzerland at an exclusive party for executives of a multi billion dollar international company.
Load More Replies...i have two fifty degree curves in my spine

Load More Replies...ow. I have a mild C shape in the lumbar area (congenital). It's not noticeable but in elementary school kids called me Frog Legs because of the way I walked, swinging my legs. I worked on walking to look "normal". I never could do anything well requiring balance.
sometimes i'll just randomly start to fall lol
Load More Replies...yeah lol but when i do my physical therapy exercises routinely it doesn't hurt as much
Load More Replies...I, in fact, have more than 0 friends 🤯
Keep going im so proud of u <3 🥹/j
Load More Replies...I am under 20, and have so far in my life had more than 12 sets of x-rays (I can't remember the exact number). However the only time that I have actually broken a bone, I didn't get it x-rayed or go to a doctor and it ended up healing wrong. Oh well.
I was hospitalized three times in one year for similar reasons each time. I was 6.
i don't know how many i have had but i know it is a lot. i have had extensive orthodontic treatment and 2 surguries for a lip tie. it has required to get full head scans (and a lot of them too because i had two rows of teeth and couldn't take the x-rays properly)
One time me (at the time f22) and my sister(20) were waiting on the bus. I used to smoke so she stood like 2 meters away because she didn't like the smell. Then this guy came up to us (he was 17-18yo) and kinda quietly demanded cig and money. I was confused and asked him to repeat it. He did, louder, a little more angry/threatening and I scoffed and told him to leave. My sister didn't really hear the conversation so she was kinda confused. And that's how I sent a wanna be robber walking with his tail between his legs and no one ever believes me when I tell them.
i laugh like a typical kids show villan
Fellow snorting grandma here. But only if it's really, really funny.
Load More Replies...I laugh really hard and really easily, but then I suck the air back inside my lungs when I don’t have any left, and even to me it sounds weird. Can’t ever stop myself from laughing tho, I’m just that type of laughable/happy/joyful person.
There is a small stream named after my family in Missouri. The reason it is named after us is because most of my family lived and owned that land.
My mom and dad had green eyes. I have brown eyes, and there was a 1% chance I would get brown eyes.
The father of both my children is the right handed child of 2 left handed people. I'm left handed. My children are not. I feel robbed.
I have now had a concussion on my birthday 6 consecutive years in a row.
Sounds like you need to stay home in bed, surrounded by pillows, for the next one
I can't swallow pills with water, it just doesn't work, I have to swallow them dry.
This is literally the only thing on this submission that has me confused. None of any of those were unbelievable.
Can I ask what you are confused about?
Load More Replies...When I was little I was able I was able to do huge pills with no water, but not anymore.
My son has to basically stick them down his throat and then drink water. I can take a handful of vitamins at once without issue so he didn't get it from me. Lol
I can’t do it with water, but I can with food. CERTAINLY not dry though!
Then you may probably have to make a quick decision, eventually...
Load More Replies...My eyebrows grow constantly like my hair and need regular trimming
the worst is shaving on the ears. I always end up nicking them
Load More Replies...I get a rogue eyebrow hair sometimes. It will grow several inches over night.
I have double jointed toes, and I can crack them like they're my knuckles
that's cool, but also eueueeuugh .. do they hurt if you crack them too hard?
My friend has a double jointed thumb and can pop it out of his socket whenever he wants (his thumb was dislocated by a van door when he was young o-o)
I've played fetch with cyotes
Every year we get a litter of coyote pups on the campus of the community college across the street. Large campus, lots of wild areas, including places no human, not mentally impaired, would ever try to bushwhack through. There's always one youngster who stays behind when the pups split up. Whenever anyone walks their dog over there, that one adolescent coyote will appear out of the blackberry and poison oak thickets and toss a stick around by itself. He/she really wants to play but I don't want my dogs to catch anything so I keep them away (I have big dogs). But we have been followed home a couple of times and the coyote will sniff noses through the fence with my boys.
Awwww, I want to do that! That sounds like fun when they aren't trying to kill you!
It was a nature center they were born in captivity
Load More Replies...They got bored on their cage so we'd wrestle or play fetch
Load More Replies...This is not me, but my brother can turn his foot all the way around.
In my case, I can make them point about 300 degrees away from each other.
Load More Replies...I can draw inanimate objects pretty well but with anything moving, living, or that will not stay still, I suck (leaves and plants do not count)
I can’t draw anything except for fictional characters I create as I draw. No one notices if I make a mistake cuz they don’t know what a Robohafzoleempin is 😉
I’ve been super close to dying 4 times
if it did I’d be at 6 near deaths, but I have to say covid was one of the most mild sickness i’ve ever had. Didn’t bother me at all
Load More Replies...That i am adopted, i look like my sister who adopted me.
No, sadly our mother died and she was of age so she adopted me!
Load More Replies...I have a 3rd testicle. I wasn’t born with it. It grew within the last 15 years. It’s not regular sized, but it’s still slowly growing. And yes, it is definitely a testicle.
Officially, these three balls must have been shakened three times by three different urologist's hands with gentle dexterity...
Load More Replies...you should donate it to tre cool (the drummer from green day) he lost one in a unicycling accident
I have four nipples.
I was born that way. Two rows, about four inches apart.
Load More Replies...I am 13, Five feet and two inches, not even ninety pounds and I’m still the strongest in my class.
hey i saw the bottom of your bio and i just want to let you know i'm here for you and you can talk to me at any time.
well idk I can’t really do anything about it. For some reason by best and only friend hasn’t texted me for a week, and I have texted him. My parents are emotionally abusive. That’s why ig

I have one streak of naturally lighter hair at the front that gets very light (sometimes close to blonde, and I have dark brown hair) in the sun. The rest of my hair is not affected by sunlight.
Me too! Only mine is red while the rest of my hair is black so it's not easily visible.
My son, nephew and youngest niece all have blonde temples. Oldest niece is blonde. Will's is the most prominent and get almost white in the summer. His hair is dark brown and SUPER thick and shaggy so these long blonde pieces show out. He used to have a lighter ring around his head but it's not as prominent anymore.
When I was little I apparently slept with my eyes open. I guess I still do, but now I only sleep with my eyes half open and only on occasion. (My sister who I used to share a room with told me this and my parents confirmed it.)
do you blink when you're sleeping or will dust cover your eyes and your eyes be very very dry
Apparently I didn't blink. Just slept with my eyes wide open. And I have no idea how my eyes didn't dry out.
Load More Replies...My friend did this I was at her house for a sleepover and thought she was awake so started talking to her but she was actually asleep.
I also used to sleep with my eyes open, apparently it really freaked out my older siblings.
My niece used to. Still does sometimes. Super creepy. She's 22. One of our cats does, too.
the good ole tale of how i have a sideways tooth in my jaw its fun and i tend to forget its there only problem is it could get dangerous
Along these lines... my son had "shark teeth." Apparently it's not that rare. The incoming adult tooth instead of coming straight down, comes in at an angle, allowing both teeth to persist on the jaw at the same time for a little while....
My baby teeth were VERY stubborn. I had to have one of them pulled - by a dentist.
I have 4 teeth (my canines) that are outside the normal dental arch. They overlap in front of my normal teeth and make it look like I have retracted vampire fangs
dang weird thing is mine is just a normal tooth except bigger horizontel and in the front of my lower jaw
Load More Replies...Oh. This is me too. I actually got an infection from the tooth pushing against the inside of my mouth and didn’t even know I had one. I wasn’t in pain or anything. Still am not, but we’re trying to get it fixed.
thats like mine except mine is in the front of my lower jaw
Load More Replies...I have complete aphantasia, yet Language Arts is my best class
It's not being able to visualize images in your head:)
Load More Replies...Me too. No inner dialogue or pictures. Completely blank mind. But I'm really artistic. :)
I am the opposite. I picture and lay out everything in my head. It's like my own VR network. I do, however, completely believe that some folks have absolutely none of this, because I have been very closely walked through the experiences of some kind friends and my partner. I find it fascinating and to me it seems like living without a body part :-)
Load More Replies...Same!! And I have a degree in literature, a master's degree in education and have taught literature for over a decade!!
I was kind blown when I learned of this. I had no idea it existed. My mind never shuts off. I'll be happy to share some of my visual imagery with someone.
It's interesting that you put it that way, because my mind never shuts off either and I have a Fantasia. I have a non-stop running dialogue in my head. My closest comparison to imagery I think would be that I have ideas and concepts of things, but I have absolutely no visual image. For example take an apple. I can describe what an apple looks like I can describe turning it around from every angle I can describe what the bite would look like but I can't see it.

I’m related to Jesse James.
Jesse Woodson James (September 5, 1847 – April 3, 1882) was an American outlaw, bank and train robber, guerrilla and leader of the James–Younger Gang.
Load More Replies...So I’m a really happy and smiley person, but I love reading Horror and Stephen King and I’m currently writing my own books (yes, I said books, plural — I’m sure it’ll take years for me to finish them). So basically, the fact is I like Horror and total strangers who only know my personality would never have suspected it.
I know someone who's basically the definition of a cinnamon roll, except the love horror and wants to work in forensic sciences when they're older
I once had a conversation about American Idol with a convicted Watergate felon.
when I was a kid, my big toe got accidentally cut off... and I re-grew the whole toe, nail too
wait you need to find a bunch of scientists so they can compare your dna to a lizard... so we can get that sequence in our dna. that is SUPER useful.
Something similar happened to a friend of my parents, he cut off the tips of 4 of his fingers with some tool in a freak accident but they grew back, nails and all. My parents confirmed, and were indeed shocked to see that they really grew back
I can wiggle my nose, like Samantha on Bewitched. As far as I know, I'm the only one who can.
i can wiggle my ears independently, but not my nose... nose and lips move together, haha
I can say the alphabet backwards faster than you can say it forwards.
My autistic son can do this… he did it by assigning numbers to the letters then counting backwards… how his mind works boggles me…
Heh, I've been able to say the alphabet backwards since before I went to school. Apparently I shocked my parents' friend who asked me to say it forwards, then joked about saying it backwards. Basically, it's just a sequence. Easy to learn. :)
I used to practice that in case I was pulled over for DUI. Never had to use it though.
I have no bottom twelve year molars. I have top ones, and all of my other teeth are normal, but for some reason I don't have any bottom twelve year molars.
If by "twelve year molars," you mean "wisdom teeth," it's not that rare.
I also don't have wisdom teeth, and they are different things.
Load More Replies...6 year molars are your first permanent molars you get around age 6 , 12 year molars are the second molars you get around age 12 and your wisdom are your third molars Some people genetically miss permanent teeth and if their children get the gene, it isn't always the same teeth that are missing.
Interesting! One of my molars never had a tooth underneath it, so it's still technically a baby tooth
I can do gorlin’s sign (touching tongue to tip of nose)
In my 40’s and have never been put under anesthetic or epidural or been cut open for any type of surgery… including - I gave birth naturally to my twins even though they were sure they’d have to do a c-section due to one twin sitting sideways…
I have been bitten by a lion, a monkey and a hedgehog. ( not all at the same time ! )
I got the X-ray saying my wisdom teeth were coming in the same day I lost my last baby tooth. I was 13. I’m getting them out in the next couple of weeks. Unrelated, but I can flare my nostrils, move my eyebrows, and cry on command
Yes they do. It’s just not as common.
Load More Replies...Can some people not flare their nostrils? Weird. I can move one eyebrow, but not the other. All 5 of my siblings can also move just one eyebrow (4 of us can move the right one, 2 the left).
I'm 52 and, only one wisdom tooth came through that I had to have pulled. It was giving me a sore throat on that side of my neck every now and then.
i was adopted. by my birthmom's uncle. my cousin was also adopted four years before me and my biological sister was adopted when she was born eight years before. (my cousin/brother is oldest, my sister, then me) i also almost drowned when i was four. ;3
okay acutually idk why i needed to explain this but my brother is 21, my sister 16 and I'm 15. if idk when i was mentioning the years if it was confusing
I have a particular trait of synesthesia. Seeing a specific shade of light blue causes a weird taste experience. It tastes like rusty nails and wallpaint. Also, I'm 35 and still have one baby toth. The permanent toth is just sitting dormant in my jaw. And once I got bitten by a ladybug.
there is a particular species of ladybug that is prone to biting people (orange ones with no spots).
The Asian lady beetle 🤏got em dropped in Ohio to eat aphid on crops
Load More Replies...Aside from my family, there are no other people in the world with our last name.
I was adopted by my father's parents. Therefore my father is legally my brother and my mother is my sister-in-law. My father's sister is also my sibling and my cousins are also my nieces and nephews. Somehow or other, pretty sure I'm my own great-grandpa 😲 I once walked into a bar entrance and an adult lioness grabbed my foot and scooped it into her mouth. I had to stand motionless until her owner/trainer persuaded her to let go. I didn't have a scratch on me. One day I was returning to my car, parked by a meter downtown, to find an officer writing me a parking ticket. I offered him some acorns I had put in my pocket and had rubbed them shiny. He accepted the acorns and tore up the ticket.
I was probably the only one to get suspended from BCA, an after school program I’m not in anymore. Because of a move, not cause I hated it. It wasn’t bad actually.
I was held by an actress as a child.
She's a known actress in the South Indian film industry.
Load More Replies...Parent or guardian met an actress (maybe be coincidence on the street or something like that) and the actress held their baby for a moment ( maybe for a photo)
Load More Replies...I’m allergic to raw strawberries, kiwi and eggs. Not even kidding.
I'm allergic to kiwi. It used to be one of my favorite foods when i was little, then I didn't eat it for a year or two and then when i tried it again it made my mouth tingle and hurt a lot and my tongue swelled up.
My brother is allergic to strawberries and kiwi. When he was about 19, I was visiting him when he was in college. He said "These always make my mouth itchy." Like "duh. That means you're allergic."
Also, if I ever eat a raw egg, I will throw it upas an allergic reaction.
I own more than 200 pairs of shoes!
That I have anxiety and depression. I'm quiet, but kind and never let anyone around me see that I'm about to fall apart. Everyone else around me gets scared or sad and I have to be the glue that holds them together. I can't afford to have a breakdown. Even when everything hurts.
Things will better. i know it might not seem like it now, but things will improve.
Thank you for saying so. But with the past two weeks I've had I'm really starting to doubt it.
Load More Replies...I have no inner dialogue. No pictures either. It's completely quiet inside my head unless I make a conscious effort. And even then it is really difficult to think with an inner voice.
I can't imagine this, I'm the exact opposite! I'm always, ALWAYS thinking, I've never liked the meditation things that are like "clear your mind of all thoughts" because not once have I been able to do that. There are quite a few things I'd give to be able to completely silence my mind every now and then.
My brother is over twice my age. Most people don't even know I have a brother. We have the same biological parents, and he's technically old enough to be my father.
My age apparently. Everyone thinks I'm in my early 20s... I'm 41
I always say "As long as people think I'm younger than I am, I'm fine with my actual age." I'm 54 and ppl think I'm 42ish. Works for me!!
I can flare my nose on command and turn my leg its double jointed kind of so i can turn it till my heal is father then my hip and i have eyes that change color depending on how dilated they are, also I can read a 1000+ page series in a day and have amazing abilities with animals(i once got a neighbors dog to trust me and other people she was and still is very skittish ) oh and I'm twelve
I have all of these except for the reading one, it’s really cool! :)
yas -wait you're also twelve??
Load More Replies...My eyes change colour depending on my mood. To be fair, they are hazel, so containing several colours at the outset likely helps.
I can do all except the eyes and animals. mot animals are scared of me lol. oh and i'm not twelve
I am also a really fast reader. I once calculated with a friend that I could read Harry Potter number five in a little over three hours, an that's over 800 pages!
Not to brag, but I could probably do the same, anyone else?
Load More Replies...actually only around 30% of people can on command

Load More Replies...I learned to speak English by listening to Glee since I was 7. I've never taken an English class, but I consider myself at least kinda fluid.
I can lick the tip of my nose... my son inherited it :-D
Im missing a muscle in my back and have a doctors note that says that i do not know how to breathe. They recon it has something to do with the communication between my brain and my lungs but when i exercise instead of breathing faster i breathe slower for some reason. I have also had my leg operated on without any anesthesia or numbing agent
So, I have no clue how but my dad broke his finger before I was broken (honestly all of his fingers were broken but thats not the point) and I don’t know if something happened to me when I was born or if my dad somehow gave me a messed up pinky, because it has a bent on the side, and I can also bend my pinky finger to touch the back of my hand
Lots of stuff happens in the womb and during birth. It sounds like your pinky is double jointed. It can be inherited but is related to collagen. It's more common in girls
Yeah, my sister's pinkies are both crooked, so when she puts them next to each other they bend away from the other.

I remember when I was born
Well I remember being pulled out by the doctor(my mum had a c section)and then I cried because it was really warm and comfortable inside the womb and the hospital room was cold and unfamiliar. I remember being weighed and I remember hating the feel of blood on my skin and being relieved when they cleaned me.
Load More Replies...I lived at 21 addresses in 25 years. (college dorms and summer internship apartments included)
When I was nine years old, I made my stage debut in the school play. I played alongside Kenneth Branagh!
If I focus a little bit, I can crack some of my bones without moving them around (knuckles, wrists, shoulders, knees, toes, ankles, and neck)
I had to get the same wisdom tooth removed twice, 13 years apart.
I can sing the entirety of One Week by Barenaked Ladies.
I only see out of one eye at a time, but each eye has 20/20 vison. When I was a kid, one eye turned in toward my nose, so my brain "corrected" my vision by making my eyes see independently. Although the turned eye eventually straightened itself out to look forward, my brain kept my eyes seeing independently. I can switch back and forth between the two. I don't play sports.
I once lived two blocks from Mr. Rogers (in Pittsburgh, while in college.) I would see him occasionally on his evening stroll. (He is taller and more athletic-looking than you image him.)
I can snap with my right hand and do the Vulcan sign (🖖🏻) with my left hand, but not the other way around.
However I am working on doing it the other way around!
My Bio Dad owned a real Delorean in the 1980s - I rode in it. No one at school believed me because Back To The Future had come out two years prior.
Don't know why people wouldn't believe you someone had to have bought them. There wasn't only one made for the film!
It was jr high school and I live in southern oklahoma - mightve been believable if i lived on the coastlines
That I've ridden over 100,000 miles on a bike and own over 30 motorcycles. I'm an overweight middle-aged woman who looks like someone's boring grandma.
Most hand sanitizers give me hives, contact dermatitis and dry my hands so bad they crack, and burn my skin quickly. "It'S jUsT aLcOhOl". There are different types of alcohols and other ingredients in hand sanitizers that are irritants. "fragrances, benzyl alcohol, stearyl or isostearyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, myristyl alcohol, propylene glycol, parabens, or benzalkonium chloride." The scent of hand sanitizers, the potent smelly ones, cause my airways to tighten and lungs irritation. It doesn't have to be on me. Just someone walking by that just used some. The pandemic was Hell for me.
I had arthritis im my temporomandibular joint ("jaw joint") with cartilage damage and all of the good stuff when I was 18... Which then spontaneously repaired itself. My doctor was in awe and I really happy that I didn't habe to undergo surgery. Anything that's left from it is a crunching sound whenever I open my mouth widely
I had severe migraines throughout my childhood, triggered by strobing light (fluorescent lights, old-school monitors, etc.). They became way less intense after puberty thankfully. I hated public school on a whole other level than most kids back then.
I have dyed my hair over 30 times! Currently have a black fading into green tips. Also, I’m allergic to almost everything except common stuff, example: Corn, pain killers, too much cold, too much heat, scratching my skin, getting hit, my own sweat at times, certain hair dyes, chemicals such as chlorine, and so much more. It’s getting better, but a year ago I got full body hives and swelling every day.
I've climbed a few roller coasters. They make you do it during ride operator training in case you ever have to do an evacuation. The actual climbing isn't too bad -- you're basically just walking up stairs and are belted to a safety rail. The scary part is that while the ride you're on is shut down, others in the vicinity may not be, so the entire structure shakes slightly every time the next ride over runs.
1. I can spell basically any word, even if I haven't heard it before 2. I can write and draw with my eyes closed 3. I have straight hair even though both my parents have curly hair 4. I'm allergic to oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruit
I'm 'the entertainer' in almost every situation I find myself in. Work, social life, family life. Always making people laugh and enjoy themselves. I am always quick with (respectful) compliments, jokes, praise and support for the people I know and even ones I don't. I have severe depression and no one would ever guess.
This is very true. I am also English. Double whammy!
Load More Replies...I have associative synesthesia. It's essentially a brain condition in which my senses overlap so I can "hear" colours and sounds. I can also hear a distinctive ringing noise from anti-theft alarms that no one else can hear.
I am mushroom intolerant
I had a title and gave it up 7 years ago..
I am not Mexican, literally 80-90% of the time when i ask people when I'm from they say Mexican, I don't look brown, (I am in fact very European looking, pale, green eyes, light brown hair, I even have freckles) but in the DNA test we did in school says a bunch of my genetics are from the Mediterranean, so maybe that's why, idk? (sorry for my bad english)
I can mimic people exactly, personality, handwriting, EVERYTHING!
In sixth grade the school principal drove me home because I was sick. I’ll never forget that. ❤️
In all my 37 years, I've yet to meet another person who's caught one of the diseases you can die from on the old Oregon Trail game. It was Scarlet Fever.
I can spell “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” w/o having to look it up.
Ignore my last one, I have a MUCH more interesting one. I'm related to Americas first serial killer, AKA The Kentucky Cannibal. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boone_Helm). Good ol' Uncle Boone.
I once got an extension on a paper because I've gotten myself locked out of my dad's apartment where my school books were, and he wouldn't be home for a week because he was at a monastery. My teacher said it must be true because it was to out there to make up on your own.
I'm a 59 year-old guy and I have never shaved my upper lip.
I think Gravy Train doggo food is a tasty, crunchy snack.
And a tasty beverage at the end when prepared according to the package directions
My senior year my friends and I kidnapped a teacher (of course we didn't hurt him, it was a joke).
I am a direct descendent of Adam and Eve.
a relative of mine ran the funeral home that took care of Elvis Presley's last will and funeral
I got an extra vertebrae with goofy little deformed ribs attached to it and the extra accessory navicular bones in my feet. Oh and AB- blood type, also a red head *giorgio tsoukalos "aliens" gif*
I cannot do anything for more than 5 mins without getting bored, youtube, minecraft, anything. i need 2 forms of technology at all times otherwise i get bored out of my mind.
I can only talk to some people, otherwise they dont understand a word i am saying. Generally only those older than me.
Im older than I am. Everyone thinks I am like three years older than my age
I’m sorry correction: I am younger than I look
I wouldn’t claim that I am psychic but I am highly intuitive and do have some clairvoyance, I always know when a woman is pregnant, sometimes before they are completely sure, I know the gender and am usually within 5 days knowing the date of birth. I knew for my sons the moment they were conceived, which freaked me out, I have freaked sooo many people out, or I tend to know the answer to questions that I wouldn’t have ever known, like my ex came home with a guy he worked with, I met him then and we were just talking about movies and he said”do you know what my favourite movie is?” And for some odd reason I blurted out Crybaby, it was so random! When I randomly start talking about celebrities in no context they are usually are dead within 24 hours, my mother calls me a witch, and I absolutely hate it!! I don’t like knowing things!! I wanna be oblivious and not intuitive!! And no I can’t talk to spirits!
There is no such thing as double jointed, you have hyper-mobility. I was going to comment on the individual submissions until I realised how many people stated it incorrectly. Plus after more than one or two comments I would come across as a bigger a*****e than this singular one makes me!
Ok so the list’s closed but I wanted to add that I punched a kidnapper in the face in NYC when I was nine!
The physical funky things I can do, because other people said theirs: waggle my ears, spread my toes, twitch my nose, put my leg behind my head, fit my fist in my mouth, spread my middle and ring finger apart to about 80°, dislocate my jaw slightly at will, and peel a banana with my feet
What do you mean by spread your toes? Can some people not do that? Or can you spread them farther than usual?
Load More Replies...hmm. Let me see. I came up with wheeler's universe theory (age 12) and string theory (age 19) before I knew about them. They seemed obvious to me. I think that's the most fake-sounding thing I can come up with. I must try find the drawings I did as a kid.
