50 Things About me

Dec 19, 2007 12:19

One of the people on my f-list wanted to know more about everybody on their f-list. My profile is pretty explicit in the normal 'who am I?' way, so here I will make a list of 50 things about myself that aren't mentioned in my profile. This technically isn't a meme.

In smaller cities/towns I feel exposed and unwelcome.
I know what you mean. I love bigger cities, where I can feel kind of invisible...I can walk around and be me and it's fine and people won't ask a million questions and...well, bother me.

I empathize with hurt, starved or abused animals more than I do hurt, starved or abused humans. Its not that I don't empathize with humans at all, just not to the same degree. I feel guilty about this but in truth, animals have never hurt me, but humans have done so on more than one occasion.
Seconded.

I sun burn easily. If it wasn't for my freckles I could stand naked in front of a white wall and appear invisible.
Haha same here. Nothing makes the pale go away and I'm constantly sunburned during the summer.

I get lost very easily. Very, very easily. I need a GPS installed in my head that tells me where to go. I hope they invent this soon. I volunteer for the first operation.It's a running joke. I constantly get lost and those close to me get panicky phone calls: I don't know where I am but ( ... )

In college the fight was always over who would call for take out. It often turned into "Ok, fine, I'll pay if you just call."

Hehe - my roommate and I used to do that all the time. I thought we were the only ones... Bonus - we both worked in a call centre.

I judge people on LJ by their userpics.

So...what do my user pics tell you about me?

Re: Curious sassinate December 19 2007, 22:01:02 UTC

your user pics tell me that you're a person who doesn't follow the contemporary masses and enjoys their individuality. You have a great sense of quirky humour. You love doctor who, which is very important. Your love of doctor who shows that you are intelligent and superior to all other people who dislike doctor who.

::chuckle::
Yeah! I've a quirky humour. (If you do not do so already and if you get the opportunity to I reccomend you read the comic strip "Non Sequitur" it is a kick.)

The Dr. is my hero.

Don't feel guilty. Both types need people willing to protect them.

<< # I never crave salty things. If they made potato chips illegal it wouldn't bother me at all.
# If they made chocolate or coffee illegal I'd volunteer to suicide bomb the assholes in the government who passed that horrible, horrible blasphemous law. >>

Haha, I am the COMPLETE opposite of you here! I could not live with chips and popcorn and yummy salty things, but I hate coffee and could totally go without chocolate if I had to. :)

<< # People who complain at restaurants for little things such as 'there is too much ice in my water' or 'my meat lovers pizza has too much meat on it' piss me off SO MUCH. If they've brought you shrimp pasta when you asked for chicken ( ... )

I really quite liked this entry, so there are a-many replies from the creepy cat lady who reads your journal.

1. The only places I really feel at home is when I am walking around in the downtown core of larger cities like Toronto and Ottawa. I feel part of these cities. In smaller cities/towns I feel exposed and unwelcome.
Me too! Which is also why I sympathise with...

21. I feel sorry for children growing up in small towns. Probably because I would be miserable in a small town, and I assume everyone else would be as well.
...because I live in a small town and you are right, it is an absolute hell. In all honesty, there are people who still pick on me for things that happened to me in kindergarten or fourth grade. Just grow up and get over it, gosh! I cannot wait to get out of here, my town of 1,400 people is smaller than many high schools.

6. I have a large scar across my right cheek from a laboratory accident involving exploding pressurized glass that just came out of an autoclave. At least it was sterile when it sliced me ( ... )

I am the Queen of long comments! So don't worry about long comments! Comment away!

I'd just like to point out that Eowyn is a literary name, not a comic book name. And its structured on old Celtic names by a scholar in that particular field. She is/was a beautiful and heroic elf princess. Kal-el, however, is superman's name on Krypton. The only reason suprman is heroic is because he has super powers. You don't think he'd try to stop a bullet to save somebody else's life if it wouldn't bounce right off do you?

I know many people would still argue with me, but I honestly feel there is a separation between a name in a classical piece of literature and a comic book.

Although I don't know if I'd name my son 'Gandalf' Lol.

Human princess, actually. You were close. ;]

Good point, though! There is quite the distinction; I used the example because I presumed that book characters would fall in quite the same category, especially since there actually are a few kids named "Harry Potter" out there. Just imagine naming a kid Dumbledore. Poor thing.
