just how weird are you?

[AnGeL.SLayer]

I once knew a guy who was termed a vampire as well. He was a odd odd guy. It was cool that he was a vampire in a sense but I think he never came to terms with it. Which made it hard to be around him. He was a sweet heart but he hated it yet loved it at the same time. He just wasn't a strong person when it came to just being your self.


On topic, I'm a 6'3" female. Which was always weird for everyone else around me. I've been dubbed an amazon since I was in elementary school. I've always towered above all the other kids. It pisses me off that everyone feels the need to remind me that I'm tall. I know I'm tall, you need to come to terms with it. I usually tend to say things I shouldn't..I'm a very blunt and honest person. Even if it means hurting someones feelings. That's all thats really weird about me I guess...Oh I tend to sleep a lot too, an average sleep is somewhere between 15-20 hours...My iron is actually above normal at like 13-14 (normal is around 11) I love to sleep above all else. I just enjoy dreaming I suppose. I also have an unhealthy obsession with stuffed animals. lol I shall never give them up. hehe

Angel, I feel your pain. 6'6 and growing like a weed (I may have outgrown 3 pairs of pants this month.) Add to that a town where the average seems to be 5 flat, and you have the skyscrapers of me and my dad.

My sleep cycle is approximately 26 hours long; I don't go to bed or get up at a remotely consistent time. I also seem to be nocturnal even if you account for the length difference. For reasons unknown but probably related, I also nearly always get tired again about three hours (although it can sometimes fall anywhere from two to five) after waking up.

Dude, you may have an extreme case of sleep apnea. I have a mild case and it messes me up. Basically what happens is you stop breathing while you sleep and wake yourself up. This causes you to never really hit your REM cycle, thus never really being in a state of rest. I have a mask (which I don't wear but I should) when I go to bed and a machine that pushes air into my lungs. It's not painful but you may want to check it out.

I suppose anything's possible, but it's more that I stay awake for longer than normal, not that I spend more time asleep, so I don't think that's it. (Incidentally, I can and frequently do stay up for anywhere from 18 to 36 hours on a whim, so I think it's more that I don't get tired -- or at least react to being tired -- like most people do.)

1 guy in my school, has at least 5 inches on me.

 

[Melaisis]

I'm a devote Dualist.

No. I mean like the faith; not like fencing or Yu-Gi-Oh, heh.

I'm 6'3, and one guy in my college is 6'5. That's about as tall as we get around here, kekeke.

 

[Gigantor]

Never one to pass an opportunity to point out the startlingly obvious: this is one hella tall forum. Being a mere 6'1 midget I feel embarrassed for myself and my fellow oompah-loompahs.

I do feel normal after reading this thread, though. I love milk and potatoes (together, on occasions), and put gravy away as fast as you can mix the stuff. I'm growing a bit tired of academia and would like to reach the point where people will pay me English money to write about games. Sorry, this is just becoming one of those 'aspirations' posts.

Hmm.

I'm also remarkably flexible, and have an addictive personality. Once I start collecting something, I don't stop 'til I've run out of money. I absolutely love biscuits, but I think they are bad for my skin.

EDIT: I also own sixteen pairs of shoes, my favourite being a pair of bright, shiny gold Converses studded with Diamantes. Lurid, gaudy and downright beautiful.

That is all.

 

[Logan Westbrook]

Honestly? I'm fairly normal for a geek.

I'm completely tee-total, does that count?

 

[AnGeL.SLayer]

My friends step-father is 6'10"...he's the only guy that's ever really made me feel short...

I love biscuits too! they make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside...lol

[mshcherbatskaya]

I'm 5'5" and weigh about 100lbs. I've only recently realized that I'm really freakin' hyper, and the reason it took me so long to figure it out is that, in comparison to the other women in my family, I'm a sloth.

I'm androgynous enough that I have been called "fag!" more than once.

With multicolor candy such as M&Ms, I eat them in color order. And I prefer to eat with my fingers whenever possible. There's more, but it goes too far into the realm of TMI, even for me, which is saying something.

Sounds weird to me, but I need a quadruple gin and tonic just to stop the shakes every morning. Which makes me a biased judge.

Caramel chocolate digestives are worth their weight in gold.

I'm very much the same, except I'm much taller and about twice your weight. A dangerous combination.

I've always been considered weird by my peers. I have almost no motivation, yet I'm fairly intelligent. I've been into science, gaming, and reading at the same time my peers starting hunting, learned to ride four-wheelers, and started making friends. While I do have friends, I've never been part of an actual social clich. I've always been wandering between groups, making friends with some members and enemies of others. I probably have OCD. I have to constantly re-check things to make sure I didn't miss anything or to make sure everythings in it's place. I can watch many different types of sexual acts (to a certain level of kinkiness) and not be freaked out, things that normally freak my friends out. teacher. I have never had a serious relationship with a girl.

seriously that is just me more or less, and i have that wierd indent in my chest that easykill mentioned,

 

[The Potato Lord]

I don't have anything really wierd about me physically other than my eyes which occaisionally after an extended period of foucuing on a rapidly moving screen(FPSes mostly)
will cause my vision to vibrate to the left and right extremely so that I can barely tell what I'm looking at for about half a second. I absolutely hate counting because I always assume I miscounted and recount to confirm my origional count.I'm absolute crap at small talk and tend to stare at the last thing I looked at when I start thinking for a long time, which gets some awkward stares from people. I also Eavesdrop unintentiionally if I'm sitting around in a room bored.

-Early on in school, I would occasionally write about graphic violence for the sake of being awkward when I didn't like the teacher. I distinctly remember writing a few sentences about being dismembered by aliens and buried in various places around my county as a form of protest.

-By age 10, I'd read Oscar Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray" and some other classic Victorian novels.

-I recently discovered that I've always lived about one town away from the mental hospital where they keep the Yorkshire Ripper. No wonder I always hear them testing the WWII air-raid-siren-esque alarm every Monday...

-As a kid, I wrote a number of bizarre stories about 1970s disco zombies led by an undead Elvis impersonator and a demonic cyborg thing called Gilbert. They ended up developing something of a cult following for some utterly inexplicable reason.

-I have a talent for voice-acting, to the point where I can do a stereotypical demon voice (think half the bosses in Devil May Cry, or maybe Dr Claw from the Inspector Gadget cartoon) without sound editing software, and yet also seem to be able to do a pretty good Salad Fingers impression. A lot of people say I sound like Saruman from Lord of the Rings half the time.

-My earliest memory is of watching my dad play Doom. It's probably why I became a gamer in the first place- I witnessed the demise of a Cacodemon (either that or the pinky demon) and thought to myself "I want to do that too."

-I'd rather go to see a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta than attend the annual rock festival everyone else I know seems to obsess over like it's the Second Coming. Classic satirical musicals are underrated and brilliant, I don't care what anyone says.

 

[mattgr2006]

I'm not as weird as some of you, but i'll see what i can come up with.

I cannot stand seeing bad spelling or pronounciation 'cept if i don't know how to spell it, I have a weird twitch in my left eye. I love the cold and can't stand the heat. I can't think in my head, have to say everything out loud. Hate drawing pictures, yet when i do, they are often good. A 500 page book is light reading for me, 700 is my norm. i have the thinnest arms you will ever see on a 5'11 15 year old. I love math and all logic problems. I have an obsession with symmetry and rythym. I hate to fight, yet always think about killing pretty much anyone i talk with. I am amazed by the simplist things. I love to ponder meaningless questions, especially paradoxuri (yes, that is the correct plural). That's about all I'm willing to divulge for now. Oh, and i can turn my left thumb upside-down.

I do that too. I also have to line things up, like straightening up a chair in our office manager's office so that it's centered under a picture. (She has the same affliction; everyone else moves the chair closer to her desk and angles it, annoying the hell out of both of us.) And if there are two light poles (or trees, etc.) that are nearly lined up, I actually move (or move my head if I'm driving) to make them line up. But my wife does that too, so I've stopped thinking of it as weird.

At one point our whole electrical engineering department was between 5'-5" and 5'-7" (I'm 5'-6".) One of our salesmen at the time was a lady about 6'-4" or 6'-6" in low heels, and after her presentation we're all standing in this small room looking up at her and I got the giggles to the point that everyone was looking at me. We looked like Snow White and the Five Dwarves! Now though we have a guy that's over 6'-7" - I refer to him as our complaint department.

With multicolor candy such as M&Ms, I eat them in color order. And I prefer to eat with my fingers whenever possible.

I do almost the same thing; I'll usually try to keep the colors as even as possible, I.E. if I have 3 red M&Ms, 4 blue and 3 green, I'll eat a blue one first.

Anyone wearing any kind of perfume or cologne makes me gag, yet the smell of dog crap doesn't bother me at all.

I'm one of those people that doesn't like different foods to touch if they're on the same plate. I've been known to use two small plates over one big plate to prevent the foods from touching. I have no idea why. 0_o'

I have an extremely low cold tolerance. I almost always have a hoodie on or a blanket wrapped around me if I'm at home.
On a similar note, I've been seen wearing a hoodie in early summer/late spring. In Alabama. I won't take it off unless it's really hot out.

I hate using the telephone. I'll order my pizza online, thanks.

I hate being in crowds where I don't know anyone. I'll find one person I know and follow them to the ends of the earth if I'm in an unfamiliar situation. This has given me the title of "clingy" more than once. -_-

I sleep a LOT. Assuming I don't have to wake up for anything, I'll go to bed at around eleven and wake up at 9:30. For those of you too lazy to do the math, that's ten-and-a-half hours of sleep. If I go to bed earlier, I'll still wake up around nine if no one wakes me up. I've slept for thirteen hours before for no particular reason.
