Share something funny or amusing *about* yourself
 
Now, I have to stress "about" yourself...NOT something funny you've done or that's happened to you, etc. Don't be afraid to tell us about that third nipple. :)


I have two jobs. One is an office job where my title is Program Coordinator. Perfectly pleasant, run of the mill code for "Pee-on Supervisor". My other job is a construction job (involving new homes). My job title there? Butt Stripper.

How did you know? ;)

Ummmmmm....let's see. I have a dent in the top of my head. It's not huge or anything, about an inch in diameter (don't know how deep - I'm afraid to press down too hard!) You can't tell it's there unless I take your fingers & put them there (which I do occasionally to creep people out.) :D

I don't know what the deal is, but I've been told not to worry about it. So far my brain hasn't leaked out of my head, so I guess I'm OK...for now :(

I think I have a defective diaphragm -- sometimes I am literally unable to stop laughing. This bears no relation to the actual humor of the situation. I simply start laughing or giggling for whatever reason, and then my diaphragm starts to spasm and sends me into fits. Laughter hiccups, of a sort.

My friends love this, and are constantly trying to see if they can induce a laugh attack. Unfortunately, sometimes it gets a little scary because I laugh to the point that I can't breathe, gasping for air between guffaws, red-faced and lightheaded -- but this just makes everyone else laugh harder.

I've always secretly wished that this is how I die when my time comes -- in a true fit of hysterical laughter. :laugh:

Did you know that Marky Mark ACTUALLY HAS ONE!!!...
Seriously, I saw this on this biopic on him on TV.
TOO weird..
Did you know that in the 15th/16th centuries it was considered to be the devil or witches mark??? People were like burned at the stake for such a thing...(TOO sad :(
The funniest thing I can think of about myself is THAT I WAS BORN!!!

Hey there Amber! Regarding your "essence" are we talking herbal here or about the
warm "aura" that emanates from my computer when I read your post??? ;)

Why, herbal, of course. I love nothing better than to make those moaning noises as I lather my head with the rich, invigorating, magical foam of a f****** $3 bottle of shampoo....how'd you know???? :D

P.S. - Wow, you can smell me from all the way over there? :laugh: I tried to rinse out my aura yesterday, but...

Hey Amb, my computer is MAJORLY (expletive) as of late...I'm at war with The Apple Store.
Another story, for another time:(
At any rate, my IBook is having MAJOR memory issues,hard drive problems,etc..etc..
As a result I can't always see icons and pictures...So I can't see your's on your last
post. I can only imagine. As a plus, this whole experience is just becoming so much
more "artistic" for me...(I am so ROTHFL right now!!!)
:):):) !!!

ok - (sucks about your 'puter.) so basically, then, what you're doing is looking at your icon, then imaging the head without the twirl?

No, Amber, I'm imagining Stevie without her "spectre", but then again that would be
like you without your dear essence!!!
But ANYWAY any feedback about the whole "3rd nipple" bizarreness???

I was going to get a cookie-cutter blue butterfly on my left shoulder when I was 15years old.
In retrospect, I guess it was a "happy" accident that I ran out right before due to the fact
that I'm a "chicken sh*t"...

Yeah, that's best - Actually, I just got a butterfly on my leg about 3 months ago - I said i'd never just get a random stupid one that everyone gets, but there i was, with my friend, had a few cocktails, was walking down telegraph right by Berkeley campus (she was visiting from out of town) and i'm all "well, we could get tattoos, and i laughed, but she's like, "ok" then she wanted me to get one and she paid for it. I made up for the butterfly by making it REALLY PRETTY COLORS - plus, it was just a cosmetic tattoo anyways... :) but people shouldn't get tattoos when they're 15 anyway :laugh: ok, i have to cook some salmon i just noticed i'm starving.

Well, I can crack my knuckles really LOUDLY.

When I curl the toes on my left foot, the last two toes stay sticking up.

Also, even though I'm 38 and about 30 lbs overweight, I can STILL do a split! I'm pretty proud of that, actually.

Oh, and I also have cat-like eyes. If that's interesting or not. Seriously, I've been told I look like a cat. -_-

The neighborhood kids think the eyebrow thing is funny. But my daughter knows if I give her a look with just the one eyebrow up that I mean business!

It's so cool that you can do it with either one. I'm jealous. :wavey: I can only do it with the right.

Want something interesting?! I'm missing four adult teeth on top(two on each side)...wasn't born with them...I have two dentists *and* an orthodontist who've never seen this happen before :nod: Leave it up to me to be the weird one :lol:Although you really can't tell...I have a little space on the left where the 2 teeth are supposed to be, and there isn't any space on the right. The orthodontist fixed it so that you can't really notice ;)

My dad still has a baby tooth. ok, there's the unusual thing about my dad. None for me. I thought we were supposed to pick something weird - i can raise each eyebrow and wiggle my ears :shrug: but i can't think of anything really strange..
um, I have elf ears - they're not really fully formed along the edge (they don't curl around) and so they look like they would be pointy at the top.(they're not).

No one can really see it unless I lean on them and kind of twitch them around, LOL. It's not a party trick I pull out often.

I am assuming the Madeline Kahn aria scenario has something to do with a different double joint, but I perhaps I should not assume....

Oh....another me too moment.

I am also missing teeth - two on top and two or four on the bottom! I was born without them as well.

You can't really tell on top - but my teeth are a bit spacey on the bottom - well the like bottome front ones have little spaces between them....crazy.

I was never told that it was unique though - but i was told that I wouldn't have to have my wisdom teeth removed because there'd be plenty of room for them - that turned out to be untrue as I got them removed last year....

ANyway...

I have a double jointed tongue. Seriously. I can roll it on it's side in either direction and I can do that thing where you roll up both sides so they meet. Yes, this ability has been a popular discovery with the opposite sex and that's all I'm gonna say about this particular physical oddity.

I also have a gap between my big toe and my second toe on both feet that you could park a truck between. I can pick things up with my feet too--that's comes in pretty handy, actually.

I can do all those things :shrug: though i know some people can't...uh, and it's still cool, don't get me wrong....oh, and wait, i don't think a tongue that can do that is called double jointed. i mean, tongues don't have joints, do they? I mean, my tongue gets joints, but that's different, isn't it? :laugh:

I'm a kettles' serial killer. Almost every day I put the water to boil for the tea and constantly forget about it, till the water dries out and ther kettle's inside becomes white. I tried everything: post-it, reminders, alarms, consulting, Dr. Phil ... nothing, I just can't help it :shrug: . I even had to change hardware store, because they started to point to me the new models of kettles everytime they saw me. :o
