my favorite joke is:
a piece of string walks into a bar. The bar tender says "WTF! Piece of string?? I hate string!! Get out! I don't serve string!" so the piece of string goes outside and calls his buddy who is also a piece of string. He tells him the whole story and the other piece of string gets very upset. He rolls on the ground, twists himself up, tosses, turns and gets very chaffed. Eventually, he enters the bar and the bar tender says again "Wha!? More string!!? Get out! I hate string! I wont serve you! ...filthy string!!" so the piece of string goes:
"piece of string? I'm a-fraid-knot"

and I tell that joke all the time...

>I can't think of anything unique about myself to list here.

>I hate bragging. I always watch what I say and if I feel like anything could be construed as bragging, I just don't say anything.

>Conversely, when I'm around certain people that make me uncomfortable (groups of people) I slip into bouts of pompous bullshit simply to not be the weird kid who doesn't say anything.

[Iron Clad Ben]

-I didn't find real footbag until age 23, but had been playing hackysack since I was 10 or 11. I often feel a moderate, sometimes painful level of regret for that, wishing I had found this earlier
-Once in college while drunk I crapped on someone's dorm room floor in an act of revenge
-I was into both nu metal and emo for brief periods of time but now consider interest in both those genres phases that have past. I now love a genre of music called "stoner rock" but I am not a stoner in the least.

-I have never smoked a cigarette in my life and intend to keep it that way
-I have suffered from depression at various levels since I was a kid. I have never taken medication. Right now footbag is by far and away the best cure. The more I play the better I feel

[The Actual Sized E]

I've probably had more fun reading this topic than anything else on modified lately.

-I've disliked chocolate most of my life, but I can tolerate it now.
-I tend to drink a lot at tournaments but rarely do it otherwise.
-I've been robbed at gun point.
-I was deathly afraid of balloons as a child. I can manage around them now, but I still don't trust them.
-Unless I really concentrate on not doing it, I have to take even steps in every sidewalk square (or some other stupid pattern). I also have other OCD tendencies like having to touch thing with both hands (doorknobs, pens, etc..)
-I didn't start puberty until I was 17.
-I didn't loose my virginity until my 19th birthday.
-I play more footbag with my hands than with my feet, and might be the best handbagger in the world.
-I'm aware of how lame the above statement is, and i don't care
-It's very unnatural for me to link my past actions with my present status or to plan ahead farther than a month. I live very much in the moment.
-I've held a steady job installing high-end home audio/theater for the last 8 1/2 years.
-I've been inside hundreds of millionaires and a few billionaire's houses and crawled around in their attics and crawlspaces. Millionaires crawlspaces look pretty much the same as anyone's, just more expansive sometimes.
