Ladies and gentlemen of the Escapist, we are all interesting people. Got it? Good.

Tell us something you find interesting about yourself. It can be your taste in music, the way you fold your clothing, any strange quirks you exhibit (for instance, I have OCD), or how in love with your cats you are.

I have the astonishing ability to bull shit anything. Yesterday I shat out an in depth paper on a poem about Hansel and Gretel. Took me 20 minutes total.

Your turn...

Oh and no saying "But I'm not interesting"...if you really believe that, not only are you wrong, but you also shouldn't even post.

I have a USCF rating of 1454. That is vaguely interesting if you know what USCF stands for.

I have the ability to count things without thinking about it.
If I walk from one end of the street to another I can tell you how many lampposts I've walked passed, same story for lightbulps,trees and ceiling tiles.

I pace around it circles thinking when I'm bored. It confuses, annoys and even makes people dizzy.

I love cats but will never get another one after my last cat.... I miss you little Eggy. She didn't die just had to leave her when I moved, also I didn't name her my brother did.

Uh, I have a couple weird fetishes and disturbingly low self esteem. Also there's a scar on my eye, which is kinda cool.

Well, let's see.

-I'm a red-head with both central and complete heterochromia. Or, as a friend says it, I am pretty much a walking genetic mutation.
-No one ever believes it when they see me, but I love metal music. Mostly symphonic metal.
-I hate cooking...
-...But I absolutely love to bake. If I was actually motivated to learn about it, I would want to be a pastry chef.
-I write. A lot. My nowhere-near-finished fantasy trilogy is over 250 pages in Microsoft Word (single spaced).
-I constantly talk with my hands. If my hands aren't free... I talk with my feet.
-Having been in marching band for four years, I will walk in time to any music that I hear.

...Mm, that'll do for now, I think.

Let me just set the mood.

I'm 6 foot 2 inch tall. Quite well built. Shaved head, tattoo's, ex Army and more scars than I can shake a stick at.

Now, people ask me if I have any pets and yes we do have pets (and no not my kids .... although I do wish I could put them in a cage when they get incredibly noisy).

They seem to think I have a big bastard of a dog..... they couldn't be more wrong.

Out of all the pets in our house mine is a small white/black and brown rabbit called Odin. I love that rabbit. I've had him for 4 years and know that when he passes away i'm going to blub like a baby.

Other pets we have are 4 Hamsters, a Snake, a Ferret, 2 Guinea Pigs and 2 Rats. Most of them are my wifes, she loves animals.

Also, my wife is 5 foot tall. She's a tiny thing next to me.....

She is the boss of this house. When she's angry and starts shouting the kids AND me shit ourselves.

Besides having to walk to school, my exercise routine is entirely made up of air guitarring to Metallica and Sabaton and the like.

Well I'm not an interesting person, OK.

I can write utter bullshit also, a talent I used to be crap at (hence getting Cs in my English Literature AS-Level), but now am good at, using it to scrape through parts of my old uni coursework (for Maths no less) after honing that skill on the forums of this very website. Yes, The Escapist enables me to write bullcrap...

Also, I have a talent for writing fiction, mainly dialogue. Which is useful as it's allowing me to pursue an interest in film-making (alongside editing and directing) and allowing me the chance to be co-writer on a videogame.

Finally, I have a weird tendency to, when bored, imagine the tactical situations that could be played out militaristically in any place I happen to be. I can identify entry points, choke points, vantage points for snipers, key tactical locations to hold and mount an ambush or to hold a defensive line - and this is in modern and ancient military situations. I basically have a rather tactical mind, sadly never put to any use save when paintballing (something I found not too long ago I'm surprisingly good at) since I opted not to join the military when the RAF said they wanted me straight from school instead of going to university first (which my heart was set on).

I am a student of Forensic science about the study Envioremental Forensics and Anthropology and people keep telling me thats interesting (Though it always will seem less interesting when you do it yourself.)

More interesting on a physical level, when I was a child I was walking and tripped and bite my tongue and it bled out quite heavily before healing into a scab, this has since healed completely and taken the form of a lump of dead skin, although I can surgically have this removed it is of no irritation or issue though I do believe because of it I can't taste certain things as well and it appears as if a second tongue is slowly growing out of my first tongue, it makes me feel unique at least.

I guess in terms of interesting....I have a music library that just reached a hundred songs yesterday, all songs coming from a show, anime, movie or video game.

I have the strangest social gravity. People either absolutely love me, or can't stand me at all. There's no middle ground.
Also me and a friend wrote a Fallout text adventure in Turing one time. It took about 3 weeks to make and about 4 hours to play if you know what you're doing. Who else codes in mofuckin' Turing?!

I can space out easily and it can take a good while to unspace me.
I have a wild imagnation that tends to out of control of the most part.
Lastest, I can remember the weird and rather useless stuff, but forgot the important parts.

Well... I'm magic!

Okay, uh... Patrick Stewart is a family friend, I'm descended from Scottish lords, and I lost my virginity quite young and in a field. I'm preparing to raise wolf cubs at some point in my life. I'm going to join the Royal Marines after university. I have the weird ability to do almost anything if I'm interested, and people doubt my ability to do it. Sort of like a "challenge accepted" reaction that fixes me firmly on the task ahead.

O.O

And here I thought I was the only one who did that when bored! I've held off imaginary Zombies in my University, decided where trenches would be best placed to defend my Uncle's farm and how to defend my housing block from Nazis.

Cool! XD
