Let's see...

My ribcage is convex rather than flat or concave

I invariably play a female character in a game if I have a choice

I feel secure enough in my sexuality to state whether I think a man looks good or not without worrying about whether that makes me gay

For some reason, cold gives me an erection, while warmth ends it

was perusing through a post saying that we need more vitamin D, where someone mentioned that we need sunlight to synthesize it. I mentioned that I'm allergic to sunlight. I was just wodering how many other oddities are out there?

I'll start off. I'm a genetic vampire. I was born with an allergy to sunlight, low hemoglobin, photosensitivity, a very high resistance to cold, and a very low resistance to heat. my body temperature is a cool and controlled 95.1* (normal is 98.6*) and I have a internal clock reversal. Basically, bright light makes me tired, darkness wakes me up. trust me, my hydro bill sucks.

go ahead with the vampire jokes, I've heard 'em all. you can't offend. and before you all ask, no I'm not allergic to garlic or holy water
You have just made the coolest job on earth possible.

Well, I'm not too weird (does having an incredibly odd personality count?), but when my hands get cold, I lose a lot of motion in them for a few days. Which, as you can imagine, isn't too great when you're a cricket player in England.

Just thought of some extras. Sometimes I get slight muscle spasms under my skin - I mean, tiny non-visible twitches on my cheek or leg. Places that you can't move normally. I also am able to move my kneecaps up and down an inch or two, and I bruise and get cut abnormally easily.

Oh, and the whole vampire thing is quite possibly the most awesome thing I have ever heard.

Uhh well I know that this isn't as odd as some here but, people aren't supposed to be able to see in color in the dark(the less light avalable the less color signals available. But I've found I can, far longer than my friends.

my canines are all triangular shaped, I get physically ill if I'm out in the sun for more than two hours, I burn easily nothing like the OP, I'm pale except when I get my self sick from the sun, my bio clock is off I have no sence of time although I prefer being up at night.

and there is a myriad of other mental deficencies I have, but we'll leave them out.

I can also recite word-for-word and action/action the entire Star Wars saga. (Specials and cartoons exempt)
That's my method of prolonging sex. When I get to the thermal exhaust port stuff tends to get a bit messy. I also play imaginary game of css on dust_2, another great tip for you lads. My weirdness knows no bounds!

I'm a terrible insomniac and mainly sleep under my bed on a roll mat. When visiting restaurants I tend to steal spoons, I have several child hood lunch boxes in which I keep them, I choose to eat in places not on their food but the quality of their spoons. I have extreme cases of ocd, which also rubs off in my gaming, I have a fear of breaking wind in the bath and I'm addicted to Irn-Bru which hardly any where sells, when I go abroad I mail a care package of the stuff to the hotel, they find it a trite bit weird and I have introduced many foreigners to the orange nectar. I could keep on going but I fear I'm starting to scare you.

when I get incredibly bored I think up of ideas for games-when I find an idea I like I will build on it (story, gameplay, characters, enemies). Also when I get incredibly bored in a public place I will randomly quote Ace Ventura...loudly...oh and Shatners Bossom, I have that shirt (your avatar)

I am over 90% German, and have a permanent tan. 23 years old, don't brush my teeth half as often as I should, even on good weeks, and have never had a cavity in my life. My only fear is needles, even though once they stick me, it isn't usually so bad... The only thing keeping my Sociopathic tendencies in check is my fear of anal rape and prison... And I like Cars more than women, but if you had been betrayed as badly and as many times as I had by women, you wouldn't trust them either...
Funny. I'm over 60% German. Ghostly pale, 21 years of age. Walked away from three major car accidents, and was healthy enough to leave the hospital 8 days after entering from one that killed both the driver and my best friend in the front passenger seat. And I have this awful habit of never forgetting anything.

I too am a sociopath without regret or fear though, as I can hold myself against people far larger than me. I'm actually very text book in the sociopath department, being a womaniser and a user of people and a manipulative sort of bastard with a need to be in control. Also a bit of a sadist (though I tend to think that this is just my hatred for all things human). Perfect example was pushing a guy down three flights of stairs. Sorry, he tripped. Twice. Whilst unconscious from hitting the wall.

I don't know that I was born this way, but my mother tells me I was like this since at least Age 2 (which is about the time my biological father killed my mothers unborn child and left). Incidentally it's not just randomly hurting people, they have to deserve it.

So now I can't watch that Dexter show, because it's too damned close to my pattern of thinking. Good show though.

I was thinking the "vampiric" posts were kinda over the top numbers wise, then realised that you're more likely to be a gamer (and thus posting here) than if you weren't that way and could go play football or whatever sport appeals to those people who go outside.

Oh yes and I'm an insomniac. It is not unusual to go 7 or 8 days without sleep before my body simply passes out from sheer exhaustion.

It is simply the best shirt in existence, a visual metaphor for forever being young yet social constraints sometimes mean that you just gotta grow up.

oh yes, I have a habit of pointing out the bad things, always seeing the bad things. its a hobby. I love to criticizing things. but then again in america its just to damn easy...so I guess its not all that weird im just given to much to go on.
i get ranomd little twiches under my skin, can move my knee cap around too, and when I move me leg slowly my knee cearks. I can suck my gut in past the point of (starving) Ethiopian.
I love to just randomly run, and climb things...
this thread makes me feel not so weird anymore

oh yes, I am over half Irish, alot german, and some native america...so I am set form birt to be an alchaholic based on those things; but I hate any alchaholic drink, just don't like 'em

*edit* and another thing, for a creative writing paper once I wrote about how gazebos are ruthless predators and eat the cast of "The View", little dogs, and people...I was just joking but my teacher still said I was warped-in a good way (is that possible?)

I have a few that come to mind.

I can accurately predict how good or bad a game will be by playing less then an hour of it and I mean any game. Thus far over the years I have misjudged many five games out of hundreds one of those included FFVII, which I thought average with a terrible story (the entire midgar part is TERRIBLE) yet otherwise, if I have played the game I will know if it will be worth my time. A very handy little trait as I can avoid the worthless shit tossed out.

Other then that I am entirely apathetic to relationships, sex or anything involved in the concept. Not to confuse with disliking or not wanting as neither would be correct. Instead I could not give a damn and I sometimes view them as an obstacle in my future plans. Being that I have no failure to impress the opposite sex - just a strong desire not to bother nor care - may be cited as strange. Ironically in total contrast I can be compassionate to friends, although only when necessary. (IE: If you cry for something stupid, I am mocking you)

Perhaps I may soften over time; when I bother to get a GF, however I highly doubt my argument of Money > Love/relationships will ever change.

Ok. Sorry, I was just joking, hope I didn't offend you or anything.

I make lists and roughed-out plans for anything and everything compulsively. Usually about three a day, if my brain is in zombie mode, and the rates increase from there.

I grew up in a barn- we lived in the loft above our goat herd.

I was an adamant nudist until I started going to school (in 5th grade).

I play video games (like Bioshock and RPGs, not like Sims and Nintendogs) and am studying them in school, code websites, study biology and etymology in my free time, etc. etc. and am generally a total geek/nerd, while managing to look like a normal girl.

I use really outdated words (like hooch, persnickety and curmudgeon) in everyday conversation. Also words like whereas and hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia.

I have had dreams in the graphics or art style of every video game and anime I have ever seen or played. Side-scrolling Super Mario Bros.? You got it. .hack//Sign? Done. Late PS2 3D third-person complete with enemy HP bars and names and collecting keys to work my way up to the peak of a temple? Can't count the times. It's a wonderful thing, really.

Large pixels turn me on.

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 and an anxiety disorder, the latter of which has been proven to run in my family. I have to constantly re-check things to make sure I didn't miss anything or to make sure everythings in it's place.
up to here, I am very similar to you.

also, I'm not sure if this is wierd, buy my PC is loaded with games (LOADED, well maybe not THAT loaded) but for hours on end I sit there in front of my PC, completely bored out of my mind.

I'll add my little weird trait before I go to sleep... I have progressively been developing Argophobia.... For those unleet googlers... It's the fear to go outside.
It can really put a damper on things like work. For example I have to deal with thirty clients a day as a computer technician... so yeh... EPIC FUN!

huh, someone else that uses the word "yeh"
i am mildy OCD-ish as well, if im writing something and a letter doesnt look right, i will cross it out and rewrite it, I don't mean really ,messed up, I mean just a little messed up i mean just a little odd...also apperently theres a syndrome called "tip of the tongue syndrome" its basicaly what the name implies and I am positive I have it
I can cross just one of my eyes, so my left eye is looking at my nose (or to me left) while my right eye continues on like nothing is happeneing

I do that too, it's not somthing I'm proud of, but I think (like the proverb) eyes are windows to the soul, and I don't like looking into them as I'm worried what I might find.

It also sucks with chicks, how much eye contact does it take to become "that weirdo who is staring at me" but he gets noticed more than "the guy who won't even look at me"
