Freak Show

Jul 12, 2005 09:49

Every now and then, people seem to like to expose their quirks (I'm looking at you, nighinvisible!). It's actually taken me quite a long time to assemble a list worth sharing, since the first time I saw the meme where you tell people things that they probably don't know about you. I thought I was relatively quirk-free, but taking a more critical observation ( Read more... )

I'm always cold too! I hate it!

Like you, I ALWAYS sit with my legs up - usually indian-style or with one leg on its side (like in indian-style) and the other foot on the seat with me hugging my knee. It's just more comfortable that way! I also take off my shoes when sitting whenever possible, even in restaurants... thank god my feet dont smell :)

Yeah... I'm fairly sure that your pinkie shouldn't do that. Yay for the freaks!

I can't even touch my toes! Tyler and I were laying in bed the other night when he found this out and proceeded to give me much shit - he used to dance ballet and jazz and he's one of those people that can hug his feet. Bastard. I really think I am the ONLY girl in the world who cannot touch their toes - and I'm talking I am like 3 inches away from them!!!!

It is imperative that you add #6: You fold every piece of scrap paper into a neat little square! Talk about a quirk!

I can't touch my toes unless I've been doing stretching routines lately. I always could hold my palms flat on the floor when I was 5'5". Then I grew two inches...all in my calves. My hamstrings also tend to be pretty tight.

My bizarrely useless flexibility is with bending my spine forward. Since my lumbar region is still just as inflexible as normal, this isn't as exciting as it might otherwise be. ;) But it looks pretty cool when I curl over the edge of something and my knees go below the table/bench/counter.

At least you get cool icons out of it!

If I'm standing, and get gravity to help me, I can brush my fingertips on the floor. This is with my feet at shoulder's width apart. Feet together? Not even close. Sitting down with my legs stretched out in front of me? My toes are MILES AWAY.

So which hand do you like having your watch on? Left? Right?

Ohh, wit.

katryxx July 12 2005, 18:38:56 UTC

Bah. On the left. And I get very ANGRY at people who wear their watch on the arm that they write with. I dunno why, I just DO.
