I personally have finished three chapsticks from top to bottom.
That's easy. I did that this weekend!
(using them correctly, not eating them.)
Oh. Uh. Nevermind.

I 100%-ed FFX-II. I don't recommend this.
I was watching a friend who was trying to get all the blue mage spells and I was baffled my his level of dedication. I didn't even unlock that class...
I know RPGs are grindy sometimes, but X-2 wasn't enjoyable to me, at all. 2/10, more Rikku.
I admire your dedication.
Was 10 the one with blitzball? I never went past that arena, that game should have been released as a standalone, fun as fuck.
Yep. I 100%-ed X as well, but that wasn't nearly as bad.
🤣
I can get my tongue inside my nose from the inside. Helps cleaning out the nose and nasal passages.
Are you an alien?...
I can consistently separate the chocolate from both waffles without breaking any of them with Hanutas. And I can do the same for Prinzenrolle but with slightly less consistency. The latter are more dependend on temperature.
How many you finish by eating them?
Most of that was in my youth so I don’t know. at least 10
I'm downtown right now. For me that's big. I hate the city. It feels like one big cage and there's too many people. This whole time I just want to run away and let them throw me in jail for skipping jury duty but I'm keeping it together. So that's a w I guess
That's awesome.!
I answered a ringing payphone, just like in the movies.
Had that happen in an elevator. Elevator call boxes have a phone line for emergencies.
RING!
(pushes button)
"Hello?"
"Hello, who is this?"
"This is an elevator."
"No, seriously, who is this?"
"No, seriously, this is an elevator."
(Everyone in the elevator starts laughing)
"OMG... this really is an elevator!"
"Well, yeah, that's what I told you."
"How are you talking to me?"
"The call box started ringing so I pushed the button."
"Um, OK, can you hang up now?"
"Well, there's no real phone, just a button and a speaker, so I think you have to hang up."
(CLICK)
This happened to me one time like 15 years ago. I was sitting on a bench and a pay phone next to me started ringing. I picked it up and the local police department was on the other end.
They said they'd gotten a 911 call from this number. I said this was a pay phone and they were like, "Oh. Are there like, any kids or teenagers around?"
I looked around. There was a big group of teenagers maybe 30ft from where I was sitting. "Yep, there's a few nearby."
They said, "It was probably them. But we're gonna send someone by just to make sure everything's okay."
A few minutes later a cop came by and asked if I was the person they spoke to on the phone. "Yep." He looked around and verified there was no emergency and then left.
In a public school that had is own number, a harmless prank people used to pull was to dial the payphone's own number then immediately hang up and dash off. It would then ring and confuse the person who was nearest.

Is that how they found you, Nemo?

Every once in awhile, I will wash, dry, and FOLD all my laundry in one day.
I finished Heavy Barrel on one credit, in the exact same time it took Ride the Lightning to play through on a walkman.
One time as a 19-year-old, I planned out an entire Traveler campaign in the span of two weeks. 46 planets, each with distinct cultures, local flora and fauna, and a unique questline for each one. There was an overarching plotline about a Doctor Sinestar abducting people and stealing tech. I basically spent two weeks in my room furiously typing from when I woke up until I fell asleep at my keyboard, ignoring my bodily functions until my body forced me to take care of it. It was a race against burnout, and I won, but at what cost?
I can wiggle my ears
I regularly finish the ink of a Bic pen.
they taste awesome, right??
I'm really good at tearing away paper towels from the toll with one hand
I committed to sleeping in a silk bonnet every night, and my hair is so much nicer now :)
Hell yeah
I ended up with the absolute worst shopping buggy in the store, constantly clacking and hanging up. I found it was somehow much easier to push backwards..
People looked at me funny, but hey, if it seems stupid but works, it's not stupid.

I've kind of wanted to die for over a year, but I dropped the hand scanner in the self checkout and it landed between the wires of the rack on the underside of the shopping cart so that it was hanging perfectly, and that was pretty cool
Neat! Also, I don't know you but, I'm glad you're here

I can hum and whistle at the same time. Dogs always snap to attention and look at me when I do it lol
Can you harmonize with yourself?
Huh damn just gave it a more concerted effort and I can get them pretty much in sync/harmonized haha. It feels so weird!
Nah don’t got enough control for that though sometimes it gets close on accident. Whistle I can bend the pitch a little bit, but mostly sharp/flat. Can’t really shift full on notes easily

I find the mates to MOST of my socks
Did you work out where the drier puts them? Every load, two matching socks go in, but when I unload them there's either; just one sock, or two different socks.
I cheat and use Loc-a-Sok sock holders. I still may take forever to get my laundry out of the dryer, but almost never lose a sock!
Do they act to maintain the stock's grip on our plane of existence?
There is a pocket dimension, just behind the lint filter. I use one of those grabbers to fish socks out and I toss back ones that aren't mine.
No shit, most washing machines really eat socks. They sometimes slip between rubber and drum and then slowly dissolve. Have seen a video of that happening. And have found a lost sock when I had to repair the machine.

I can place my hands in front of my chest and make circles, hands going in opposite directions.
Have you tried patting your head and rubbing your belly at the same time?
Yeah, kind of the same mind control.

In line with your submission, I kept a Bic pen from brand new to absolutely gone. It took years, but I'm not exactly jotting down notes all day.
Now I carry a nub of a carpenter's pencil with me and I'm much happier.
