    I felt like adding some more ^_^

    *Freddie Mercury died on my 2nd birthday

    *I spent a summer living/working in Yosemite National Park, and plan to go back next summer

    *I've been growing my hair out for a few years now. It's a little over 3 feet long. Or, the bottom of my butt. I'm growing it out to terminal length. The longest it's ever been was to mid-calf when I was a kid.

    *I'm a tall lady ^_^ I'm 6' tall.

    *I have a cat named Mr. Snuggles. He is cuddly.

    *When I was in 2nd grade, I was in a bike accident. Somersaulted with my bike down a hill and landed on a bank of rocks. Cracked my head open and messed up my back. So now I have a bad back.

    *My grandpa on my mom's side, RIP, is awesome and I wish he would have lived long enough for me to remember him. He was once on his hometown's top 10 most wanted list for stealing a turkey. He also chased his sister around with a butcher's knife just to see how fast she could run. Walked out into a half built bridge with no safety precautions just to get $20 from a worker who owed him.
    [​IMG]

    *We joke that he's my guardian angel, because I was quite the ornery child. I stabbed my mom in the butt with a fondue fork and went after her with a bayonet. Rifle still attached. When I was 3 or 4 years old xD

    *I have an odd obsession with the number 36. It's my lucky number.

    *I'm left handed.


    If I can think of anything else I feel like sharing about myself, I'll add more xD

    Okay, Well here are some facts about me

    *I'm left handed

    *I love history.

    *I play chess, but my skill is about 1300.

    *When I was young, I used to sit in one spot and play quietly with toy cars.

    *I'm not interesting in sports.

    *I love Video games, and Legend of Zelda is my Favorite series.

    *I used to use legos to create planes, gave them personality, and create a story. I also did the same thing to Pokemon figures. Everything was a spur of the moment, but it loosely followed a story.

    *I draw and write, but I am much better at writing than I am at drawing.

    *I want to write a AAR or something like a documentary, but the amount and time and effect is just too much for me. Also, it seems like there is a very narrow group who are into AAR, so it doesn't seem worth it.

    * I deeply want to create a Super Smash Bros Brawl Machinima, but I haven't started it because I don't have anything to create it. All I can do is write it.

    *I'm interesting into creating a series that is about very weak (super) heroes, and very weak (super) villains, or just utterly lame heroes and villains.

    Hefty List lupr. I can honestly say I have/had friends who can relate to things you've stated. I can relate to a few as well.

    I'm reluctant to say this, but I'm Cyclothymic.
    Aparently I'm very distantly royalty (lol).
    I've cut half my finger off with a band-saw
    I wake up ~5minutes before my alarm every time.
    I've come close to dying countless times, including suffocation, drowning and lack of sleep.
    I've never broken a bone.
    I'm claustrophobic and Apiphobic

    I have been hit by a car. Once. I flew two meters. I was six.

    I was six once.

    I can write in Oblivion Script and Elder Futhark fluently.

    I induce sleep paralysis in myself for more than a quarter of my waking time throughout the day, thus technically sleeping over half of a 24 hour period.

    I stab people every other day a minimum of 15 times in an organized fashion, while they attempt to do the same.

    I do the above activity while wearing all white.

    Not the asylum kind, though. People made that joke before. Quite a bit. It got really fun when they did this when we were jogging outside.

    This list is my longest typed message in over a month.

    Might as well, everyone's doing it.

    I started programming when I was seven.

    I accidentally impaled a nail all the way through my right
    Hand when I was eleven.

    I learned that I was ambidextrous when I was eleven.

    Over the course of my life I've gone thought three religions,
    Including theatic satanism.

    I speak a total of 10 languages. 3 actual, and 7 programming.

    I have had my neck broken during my very early childhood.

    I am classified as Gifted, the test for which I completed
    While in fifth grade.

    I have 8/20 vision in my left eye, and 12/20 in my right
    Yet am right eye dominant.

    I have been hit by cars while on a bike a total of three times.

    I can dislocate both my thumbs at will.

    I've a scar on my left forearm that was the
    Result of an electric chainsaw's chain snapping
    And causing an 5" long gash on my arm.

    I am a qualified lifeguard and a Cisco A+ certified
    Computer technician.

    I have done Shotokan Karate for 5 years.

    I have an irrational fear of people hearing my thoughts.

    I've been electrocuted by latent electricity in a
    Computer power supply while servicing it.
    The electricity melted the bit on the screw driver
    I was using to the housing of the power supply
    And caused me a 2nd degree burn.

    I own a mail server.

    I have written a virus because I was bored.

    I have my G1 driver's lisence.

    I have no tolerance for discrimination based on age.

    I run 10k on a regular basis.

    The fifth and eleventh doctors are my favourite.

    I crack most of my own games to exploit a loophole
    In Canadian piracy laws. All for educational purposes
    To better my knowledge in software security.

    I have my own private WoW server,
    Much of which is recoded by me.

    I have a fear of height and of being on a falling vehicle.

    I am a vegetarian.

    I have read the dictionary as one would a novel.

    That's a bunch about me.

    EDIT: I typed this on an iPod touch.

    --A phobia of large bodies of water is quite legitimate. Drowning is a horrifying experience that I can relate to and it's quite easy to be swept away by an ocean. However, I can't quite fathom the Finding Nemo part.
    --I find the ideas of some fetishes interesting, but I avoid any that are too weird or... disagreeable with me.
    --Your eyelid sounds like it could be an odd quirk as a result of your OCD.
    --Synesthesia is incredibly rare and varied. How does it affect you? Is there a trigger? Etc. I'm curious since I've always wanted to know a little more about it after seeing it on House and then looking it up afterwards.
    --I think this effects about half the world. My brother and uncle have this issue, though my brother doesn't have any neurological disorders like my uncle.

    Oh, I won't elaborate on myself. Just random tidbits of information here and there if you get me talking. Teehee!

    I got a bunch now.

    @greyOne, I though I was the only one with the fear of people hearing my thoughts.

    I am obbsessed with hearts, rainbows, colors, and emotions.

    I'm straight edge.

    I refuse to take any medicine.

    I have had my arm set on fire.

    I've been stabed by a red hot metal rod twice.

    I almost lost my arm twice. Once, almost being crushed by a tree and explosives.

    I've been in 5 car crashes.

    I have a fear of fields. Not the field itself, just what could been hiding in them.

    I love the moon.

    I very rarely wear anything other then black.

    I haven't cut my hair in three years.

    I hate being in groups bigger then 10 people.

    I hate driving on highways

    I have never broken a bone.

    I used to competitively play yu gi oh.

    I was at one point a welder.

    That's it for now.

    1. Same. Considering I'm a pacifist, I don't know how they worked that one out. I guess being a moody sod doesn't help.
    2. Holy crap you've done some crazy stuff.

    Drowning isn't actually the element of fear. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to be drowning any time soon, but it doesn't come into the phobia at any point. What scares me about it is the actual size and scale of it, how vast and deep it is. It's really hard to explain. It's funny, seeing a picture of the ocean, such as a sunset on the horizon, doesn't do it at all. I quite like pictures like that; It's underwater that scares me. Videos of scuba divers on coral reefs isn't bad at all, again, I quite like that. But when an image encapsulates the massive depth of the ocean, I flip the shiz out. The bit that got me in Finding Nemo was the scene with the whale.

    All psychology interests me to a massive degree, although with fetishes, the weirder ones are actually the most intriquing. Obvioiusly I'll spare the details, but ones such as erotophonophilia and Apotemnophilia fascinate me.

    I've had OCD for as long as I can remember, while my eyelid only flared up within the past few years. I think it might be a stye or something.

    It happens mostly with music. In fact, it happens every single time I listen to any form of music, really. The visuals work in different layers. Each sounds has it's own distinct 'texture', as well as colour. For example, a harsh supersaw would be visualised as somewhat grey and industrial, while the length and pitch of the note would determine the shape. This shape then either responds to changes in the note, or more frequently, there is a new, but identical shape for each note. It works for every single sound in a song. It's not done on purpose, it's just how my brain perceives sound.

    As for things like numbers and letters, I'm not too sure of that myself. It's just like each one of them is personified somehow.

    Textures and materials works in a similar fashion to music, although the criteria can be different.

    I had no idea it was common. It's never bothered me, just a peculiar quirk suitable for a thread like this.

    Facts about L'hoof? Sure

    I am paranoid and it's getting worse with age ( I have to check every single entry to my house before I sleep to make sure they are sealed and I am very untrusting of people I do not know )

    I have a fear of death though it is not the passing away that scares me, it is the after life. I will stay up for hours and just sit there thinking about what comes after death.

    I am right handed. >.>

    Like Lupr I have an interest in fetishes and find them quite intriguing.

    I almost cut off my toe when I was nine and didn't notice it until I started to see the blood trail I was leaving behind. It now has nerve damage and goes numb every once in a while which is really annoying...

    I had to go to a special school to learn English since my brain has an incredibly hard to comprehending languages. Though I am really good at the sciences and math.

    I am colorblind and have very bad eyesight.

    My doctor believes me to have ADHD but it has never been "officially" diagnosed since I believe that I don't need medicine or help to get around it.

    I almost got ran over a semi-trailer doing ~50mph. It missed me by ~ a foot when I ran out of its way. It also ran a red light....

    I had my house broken in to when my mother left the front door unlocked and I didn't notice. I had stuff stolen from my room that I was asleep in. ( One of the things that started my paranoia )

    - When I was about a year old, I fell out of a first story window. (That's one up from ground floor in case it's confusing.) I didn't break any bones or crack my skull. But I did refuse to talk for almost 2 years afterwards.

    - I have a crippling fear of heights. Unless I'm in a plane or something buckled in tight and safe, I can't go near edges. This makes it very hard for me to walk across long bridges that are high up or going near cliffs and/or balconies.

    - I have a large fascination about sexuality. I like to research and explore the psychology behind it, question why one has fetishes and find what some find pleasurable and compare it to others. I've had this fascination since I was 12 years old.
