My guitar instructor once compared me to Jimi Hendrix. He said, "Compared to Jimi Hendrix, you're crap at playing guitar".

my HS band director once called me khrushjeff because I was "always rushin'." He was also known to hit drummers on the head with a clock because we "had no time."

I was briefly a music major in college; my trumpet instructor said that my playing was like someone banging a stick on the wall.

I'm not sure what that means, but it made me cry.

I was born in my amniotic sac. My mother's water didn't break. It's quite rare and considered good luck against drowning in certain Asian cultures.

I can twist my arm around more than 360 degrees. I tell girls to punch my elbow, and it looks like they broke it so I scream out in pain and they freak out... and then they ask if all their friends can see it, so I freak them out too. Sadly, all my game revolves around this.

I have a color-coded, alphabetized Microsoft spreadsheet of every book I've ever read, by author's last name.

Not very many people know and the ones that do gave me funny looks when I first tell them.

Oh, and I almost entirely lucid dream. Took lots of practice but I do it almost every night.

[–]nuskool[S] 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I like the spreadsheet thing. I keep books I have read just so I know what I have read!

Interested to know more about the dreaming thing...

[–]Wordslinger1919 8 points9 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think I've answered some of the lucid dreaming questions in this thread so I'll try not to repeat myself but here's a short guide on how to induce lucid dreaming.

  • Keep a dream log every morning, whether in written form or using a recorder.
  • Nightly affirmations that you will have vivid, lucid dreams and that you will remember them in the morning.
  • Don't go to bed drunk or high. It won't work.
  • Take a nap somewhere other than your bed and with some light. I've had some of the wildest, most vivid dreams while napping on the couch in my basement during the afternoon while the windows are open, allowing more light into the room. For some reason, a somewhat lit room helps me induce lucid dreams much more easily. I don't know why this is.
  • Eat a massive meal right before bed. Like, right before you go to sleep. I heard this once and decided to try it out not too long ago. I pounded two cheeseburgers and promptly assed out and holy shit. My dreams that night were wild. I've tried it a few times since with mixed results.

Don't go to bed drunk or high. It won't work.

well my top shelf starts with vonnegut from the left and runs into the silmarillion and the hobbit. these are all normal sized books. then there's my big block that holds my 2nd edition LOTR trilogy, followed by the Ultimate Hitchiker's guide, and a big tom wolfe collection. the left side then has the bob dylan scrap book blocking the vonnegut up to the trilogy, which creates a lovely hiding place. whadep, nerrrds!

I knew someone that probably drank more than anyone you know. He was a brute of a man. Really big and strong, worked with his hands. He ran a drilling business. From the time he was around 20 until he was around 45, he drank 60 ounces of vodka every day. His son remembers using a backhoe to did huge holes on their property to bury the empty 60's (no recycling or bottle return at that time). After drinking vodka for 25 years he switched to beer because it was 'lighter'. He'd drink about 30 beers, every day. All the while being coherant, working on the drilling machines, driving around, talking to customers, and making loads of money. No joke. He passed away about 8 years ago at the age of 70, and no one could believe he actually made it to that age.

I can fix anything. Macgyver style, oftentimes. My grandfather was a self employed machinist. My father is also a talented 'fixer-of-all-things'. When I visit friends and relatives I look for broken things around their houses and fix them. Cheap, plastic things from China are the bane of my existence. Meh. Our society has become less inclined to fix something, more inclined to throw away a broken one and buy a new one at Walmart.

[–]Slapguts 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Bicycle crash at 11, head hit a curb on the way down. Shattered a quarter size chunk of my skull near my left temple. Still have a pretty good lump. Complete amnesia, all I could remember was 842-3358, which luckily enough was my Mom's work phone number.

Bicycle crash at a skatepark, tried to get on the deck of a 12 foot ¼ pipe, shorts got caught on the seat, and I fell straight backwards. Landed on the concrete, woke up a few minutes later surrounded by kids wondering if I was dead or not.

Had a job at a car wash, and was vacuuming out the back of a Ford Explorer. We were really busy, and my manager yelled "Close enough," and slammed the rear gate. My head was in the way, and I dropped to the ground. Sat down for about 15 minutes, got yelled at for slacking, started throwing up, so I went home. Finally got a ride to the emergency room a couple hours later. Quit the job.

T-boned a Ford F-350 truck while riding my motorcycle. I was doing 55mph, and he pulled out in front of me, towing a trailer full of lawnmowers. I swerved around his trailer, and he pulled a U-turn, blocking the entire road. I slammed into the driver's side door, and totaled the truck. Next memory I have is being loaded into the ambulance. When I got to the hospital, a bunch of my friends showed up, so I asked them how they knew I was there. I guess I had been awake and made a bunch of phone calls. Had someone come get my destroyed bike, a ride home from the hospital, and even called in to work. Don't remember any of it.

There are two more I can't remember right now to save my life. My brain is a little swiss cheesed, I guess. I'll come back and edit when I remember them.

I was given an electromyogram once. The machine picked up some religious radio show. The test results indicated I was physically incapable of walking. It's been a few years (~30) and I still hate push mowing the lawn. Doctors, meh.

I regularly appeared on my friend's humor website. I got fan letters for it and occasionally people on the street would recognize me. I think it means my 15 minutes are up, but it was really fun. Doing pranks and projects with my friends was awesome, and I'm glad there's an online record of all those great times.

I have a huge extended family for someone my age, 24. My mother had 12 brothers and sisters. I'm extremely close with all my aunts and uncles and see them frequently. It's awesome.

I've said this one several times here, but I'm a freelance book publicist who mostly works with science fiction, fantasy and horror authors. I've gotten to work with people that I idolized as a kid.

I like to pose as an unattractive/overweight female on the internet.

I'm actually very pretty, have many friends, friends with all my exes because I'm not insane, and in med school.

I guess I just wonder what its like. When I have the money I'm going to buy a custom fat suit.

Are you suggesting that unattractive/overweight females have no friends, are crazy and not in med school?

In my experience its you pretty ones that are batshit insane. No offense.

I enjoy bending paperclips into stick figures despite the inevitable nicks and scratches that result from the attempt. Not that I actively seek out paperclips for this purpose, but it's what I do with the strays I find lying about.

I am an artist that does a lot of furry-themed work. The gallery I linked to is only a tiny percentage of what I do overall. Probably like 10%. I don't bother to upload the rest because it's usually too big for my scanner.

I was born with a condition known as hemifacial microsomia, which manifests differently for each person. My case is minor, but I have deformed right auricle and no inner ear. In elementary school, kids used to call me a mutant, which is how I came to love the X-Men.

I escaped a war zone with my mother, aunt, and sister at the age of 3. Although I'd never bring up that example in one of those forced introduction activities that come up at meetings and such.

1) I used to make bag "lunches" for homeless people and then walk around and find them, talk to them, and leave a lunch. I did this with other people, and we always went out with a partner.

2) For a couple of months, we offered our floor (we had a tiny apartment) to a guy who had just gotten out of prison and needed a place to stay. He was a friend of a friend, and was pretty cool, but unfortunately he couldn't beat his drug problem :(

I am from Nepal. Now you might say, hang on a second. Whats so interesting about being from Nepal? I'll tell you whats interesting. Being from Nepal gives you the James bond skills. For instance, if I don't shave for a day, I suddenly become somebody from one of those countries US is afraid of and I get pulled aside for additional screening at the airport just because I don't like shaving in the weekends. And if I grow my mustache for a week, I am from Mexico. If only I knew Spanish, I would have helped a lot of people in the 7 train to queens. I consider it a missed opportunity.
