Random fact #54498224 (I'm not going in order, you see): I can't swim. So...if we ever get together, no shoving-in-the-lake pranks.


You can be sure I won't push you in since I can't swim either.

Good.

Well if I'm there and someone pushes you in, I can save you. ;)

So do I, even though I am a good swimmer. I can't stand the thought of drifting about in the ocean with more than 10 feet of murky nothingness beneath me. :pale:

It depends. Sometimes I think I am, but other times I'm convinced I'm not. I'm a freak of nature, I guess.

No way! So is mine. :D :) :salute:

I do have a slight bias, seeing as that was the month I was born. :cool:

22. I can only remember one of them. :P That one is Narex, the equivalent of December.

That is so cool. *thinks he should try something like that for his world*

Random Fact ~ Me and my friend Kevin are obsessed with four things--dressing up in costumes, wolves, fantasy, and forests. Once, a few weeks ago, he bought a wolf tail. Not real, obviously.
He then had a brilliant idea--to create a wolf pack. And he told me that if I wanted to, I could join. If I said yes, he would buy me a wolf tail. I said yes.
So now we've gone all crazy over it. :P We're coming up with a name for our pack, more fantasy-sounding names for our wolf selves, and special codewords and languages. Oh, the fun.

Don't tell me how crazy I am. I already know. :rofl:

Random fact 1: During the summer, any and all boxelder beetles I find will be squashed, sprayed with soap, or fed to Jasmine. They are evil, and have coated the front door too many times. (there's like, a thousand out there right now, plus another hundred that were killed with soap spray)

Random fact 2: Being outside at night is disturbing.

Those are ones I can think of right now that don't compromise security. (wanders off to squish nasty bugs) :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

The first one was when someone threw a miniature frisbee to me, missing to my right. I chased it and caught it, reaching over and running into a rusty barbwire fence in the process. When I was flung back off of the fence my hand raked on one of the barbs and I had to go in for a tetanus shot.

The second time was to get help with my pinky which had been dislocated in Volleyball (a very strange experience, wish I had pictures of it before dad put it back together).
Now I have to "adjust" my pinkie every once in awhile. :P

Once I accidentally got stabbed with a rusty nail. *winces* My mom was freaking out, which then freaked me out... luckily I had already had a tetanus shot though. :P

I can relate. When I broke my leg, it was an interesting sight (won't expound for fear of making some people queasy). And speaking of pictures, we did take some of my external fixator.

P.S. Said pictures aren't for the faint of heart.

Double ouch. I'm so sorry, man. I've jammed wire under my thumbnail before. That HURTS! I also got my finger closed in a swinging screen door. The nail turned black and blue and fell off a few months later.

So there are my random facts on injuries (or at least some of them...).

:P Thanks. It feels fine now, but just thinking about it...ugh, it could have been worse, it's just so painful to think about. :shock:

Ow! To both...fingernail injuries are so painful even if they aren't your own. :P

Since I lost count, another random fact: Unlike some people, when bad things happen, the last thing I want to do is eat.

Me three. I've had several days recently when I've eaten next to nothing, not the least of which was Sept. 20th.

Count me in, kind of. Most of the time I'm not hungry at all and I would love to skip meals. However, my mom refuses to let me skip meals; otherwise I probably would have gone a week without eating lately.

Other times I eat to distract myself, which I try to stop because I'm too heavy. :/

It's a work of art, editing makes it great. :cool: (really what makes art great is that you do it to glorify God, and the fact that He does take joy in seeing us mimic Him through subcreation) :D

It's a work of art, editing makes it great. :cool: (really what makes art great is that you do it to glorify God, and the fact that He does take joy in seeing us mimic Him through subcreation) :D

Well put, Wolf. The world judges greatness in terms of success, but God judges greatness in terms of your heart's intent.

That being said, it isn't bad if you can manage both... ;)

:blush: Aw, thanks, guys.

Random fact: When I get really upset, I start speaking with different accents (British, mostly). I don't really know why.

Wow, I wish I could do that.

Random fact: I have never texted in my life.

Another random fact: I used to like baggy shirts, but now I'm changing my mind.

Yet another random fact: My knuckles crack easily.

*Has only just visited this thread*

Love this! Ok let me see.

1. I cry if someone else is crying. So if I'm talking to someone, and they're upset and crying, it's most likely I'll cry too. No idea why but there,

2. I hate butter, and always have done since I was tiny. I have it in cakes, but never have it on bread, potatoes, or anything like that.

3. I used to break my fingers in doors all the time when I was younger.

4. I have only ever had one filling in my teeth, never had anything else done to them.

5. I broke my arm when I jumped off a climbing frame at the park when I was eight.

6. I hate drinking milk, but I don't mind it in cereal.

7. I'm the only person in my family with green eyes. Everyone else has blue eyes.

8. I'm shy, but once I get to know someone I can be very chatty.

9. I refuse to read books with sad endings.

10. If I'm watching a film and I have a feeling it has a sad ending, I'll pause it and go and check on google. If it does have a sad ending I just don't finish it off. :rofl:

There we go. Enough for one time, me thinks!

Random fact: I randomly burst out in songs, quotes, or accents, all the time. Not randomly, actually, because someone is usually saying something to which my song/quote/accent is relevant, but doesn't realize that they are.

_________________
I am Ebed Eleutheros, redeemed from slavery in sin to the bond-service of my Master, Jesus Christ.

Redemption is to be purchased, to have a price paid. So I was redeemed from my master sin, and from justice, which demanded my death. For He paid the price of sin by becoming sin, and met the demands of justice by dying for us.

For all men have a master. But a man cannot have two masters. For he will love one and hate the other. You cannot serve God and sin. So I die to the old, as He died, and I am resurrected to the new, as He was resurrected.

Note: Ebed is Hebrew for bondsman, Eleutheros is Greek for unrestrained (not a slave).

I've enjoyed reading these facts about people! :D

Get contacts, Calista. ;)

1. I dislike eggs, but I adore them in omelettes.

2. I love animals, dogs, horses, cats, rabbits, pengolins, hedgehogs, you name it.

3. Figure skating is one of my passions.

4. Being able to french braid my own hair makes me happy, 'cause I've always wanted to be able to do that.

5. I am known in my family as the Potato Queen. Really, it's one of my top favorite foods.

6. Flying is my preferred form of travel all the way.

7. I have too many areas of interest to keep up with them all. o.O
