Much like Po, one of my biggest weaknesses is a lot of stairs.

I don't like revealing my major weaknesses, for fear that they may be used against me! Though I can be easily bribed with most chocolate/candy these days.

Also heavy lifting. I don't really have much upper body strength, so I'm useless at carrying stuff unless I can use a backpack.

Actually come to think of it, I have a ton of weaknesses. So I'm gonna stop the list here before people start plotting to kill me. =P
Odd, I thought your weaknesses would include rolled up newspapers and the sides of bathtubs!

OT: Ummm... I have no weakness? I get really angry and go beserk in fights, self preservation is worth the pain.

I dislike people touching my hat. It is the source of my power.

I'm very sensitive, in every possible way, so anything painful gets to me quite fast (both physically and emotionally). I also have no tolerance for heat whatsoever (hell, I burn myself when I pick up newly made toasts!).
You should try working around a grill for a few years. First day working at McDonald's, I was fucking terrified of the grill, spraying boiling grease all over the place. It was like a horror movie death waiting to happen. Then one day, 2 years later, I was training a new employee and threw a patty on the grill and we both got splashed with a little grease. I noticed he jumped and I didn't. I had finally become immune to fire and heat (which is helpful, cause I'm a chemist now)
Funny you should mention that, I tried to (not McDonald's, but a fast food place anyway). Got splashed with boiling curry sauce 3 times the first day. Doesn't help that I'm a vegetarian, so I ended up not eating anything all day. Needless to say, I didn't last more than a day.
Lol. To be fair, I would have pussied out after my first day if my mom didn't force me to stay. And I hate McDonald's food so I actually lost weight my first few months working there because I would only eat a single plain hamburger for an 8 hour shift

Moms can be unfair, too. Do you regret having spent that long in such a place? Or did it (somehow) teach you some useful things?

+10 resistance to fire will come in handy when the world ends and becomes like a fallout game. And now I know that no matter what job I get, it probably won't be worse than working in a sweaty restaurant. Also, I learned from a Spaniard that tomatoes are the cure for nasty burns. I guess I did learn things

You want me to divulge my weakness so that you can use it against me? Never! If I do, you'll stop my plans for world domination.

Physically, my weakness would be my vision and my glasses. If I take them off, I would not be able to see the incoming fist until it is mere millimetres from my face (I suffer myopia or shortsightedness) and if I keep them on, I would be sporting a weak spot of Mario boss proportions.

Mentally, I lack confidence. Like, a lot. Also, I have zero tolerance for the heat (Thank God Australia is in winter right now!)

My conscience: I absolutely cannot be a dick to someone if they are nice to me, no matter what they've done.

Obviously it's good for most aspects of life, but when I have to make genuine complaints to companies because they've stolen money off of me or given me a shitty service, I get on the phone or go into the store ready to give them both barrels but if the staff are nice to me my bottle goes and I can't do it.

I guess it's not the worst weakness to have.

Alcohol, battling the addiction without going AA and never drinking again is not easy. Its too much a part of my family and social life for me to stop completely so I am building up dishiprin and only being a light to moderate drinker.
I have this problem too, I'm on my third week of sobriety and I gotta say... It's much harder than I thought it would be.
The withdrawal symptoms are nightmarish at best sometime. I still can't believe I didn't touch any alcohol in three weeks now.
I'm trying to do it solo, I went to the equivalent of the AA near me and it's good for some people, but it wasn't for me.
I say good luck to you my friend, I know what it is to go through sobriety. (Or whatever you're trying to accomplish) :)

OT:
Physically my right knee is pretty weak, I broke it three times already. Otherwise I'm in pretty good shape, I try to never neglect my exercise routine.

Mentally I'm okay. I'm super positive and I love life as it is. Otherwise I am a schizophrenic alcoholic which can't be good. But heh, it could be worse :)
oh, yeah, i am addicted.
this is actually a weakness-without my meds i´d fuck up. (but i´d survive it, just need a week on my own. its not very nice but not really dangerous-because i am in therapy. ) so not really a weakness-(diabetes woudl be a weakness too, then.)
but i never really feel like its a weakness-thing, *hmn*

I'm Bipolar (legitimately diagnosed) and have a violent mindset.
I do not trust easily and am quite paranoid.
I am made very physically uncomfortable when there are people behind me or to my sides. I can feel some kind of pressure on my back or arms when people are behind me or to my sides and it makes me anxious, irritated and generally uncomfortable. If I have to go somewhere enclosed and I can;t be in the very back of everyone then I can;t focus and I can only think about running away or starting a fight.

in a fight I have extremely sensitive balls and will lay down and cry at so much as a love tap.

Those be my major ones.

At which point he would offer his paw to shake and his tail would be wagging like hes trying to take off lol. Seriousky that thing will fall off one day. Hes been well trained too :)
Huskies are beautiful dogs, I can understand why you'd have that reaction.

I'm too pedantic.

I have horrible, miserable, epically bad timing in regards to asking girls out.

I'm seemingly unable to be romantically interested in any woman who I'm not already good friends with......except the girl I met today....

My (almost but not)girlfriend and I hung out with this girl and we all got along FANTASTICALLY for 3 hours while we were waiting in a line to see Man Of Steel.
She's physically similar to a 21year-old version of my first love (who, like me, is 26), and also has a lot of the same personality quirks and mannerisms.....but she's also geeky enough to hold her own with my (almost but not)girlfriend and I (unlike my first love, who has perplexingly sporadic areas of geekiness in her otherwise non-geeky interests).
This girl's mother showed up after about 1.5 hours and joins us.
We all go to a movie (no Man Of Steel :( ).
We have a blast.
Suddenly they have to leave as the theater's audience is swarming back out into the lobby...
...and they vanish.
At no point did any of us introduce ourselves IN THREE HOURS.
No name, no number, no Facebook....

And there I was thinking, "Okay, now we gotta swap names and I gotta get this girl's number...but isn't that weird with her mom RIGHT THERE? and I'm kinda almost sort of on a date...but not. This is weird. Oh well, at the very least we all get along awesome and should obviously hang out again. Now or nev.....WAIT, where'd they go!??"

Just *poof* gone.
Vanished into the ether.
Back into the sea of 6 million people that is Houston, as if she never existed...
I feel as though I was being tested, and I have no idea if I passed by overcoming a MASSIVE temptation, or if I failed to be spontaneous enough.
*sigh*


So yea, horrible horrible horrible timing.
And that's just today's example.

I would recommend easing off slowly because those side effects can kill you. People end up in the hospital with seizures because of alcohol withdrawal. Who knew there was even such a thing!

I had no effing clue it was going to be so horrid either. The fact you are on week three is pretty awesome and if you are not getting the shakes or restless limbs too bad you should be ok.

Nightmarish is exactly what it is, the worst for me is waking up and looking around my room and nothing looks right, just some ominous feeling that something is wrong or that some one else is in the room. I told my girlfriend that if she wakes up and sees me sitting up looking around the room to tell me everything is going to be ok and that has helped but she sleeps like a gorram rock.

I hope the best for you as well, just stay strong and remember drinking in moderation is not a bad thing. Then again that's usually the problem people like us have though, we lack the stop drinking switch.

- I'm very easily distra-ooh shiny.
- LEGO. I think I might actually have a non-joking addiction to the stuff. Got 8 unopened sets here next to me, another 4 on layby, and I'm eyeing another 3... Which'll bring me to 371 sets in my collection.
- Very poor short term memory. If I'm asked to do something for someone, I have to do it immediately or I will forget.
