Ahh, You might be happy to know then that it wasn’t jalapeno. I just forgot to come back and say it. It was cayenne pepper in hot fudge sauce. I knew that jalapeno didn’t seem right but I couldn’t remember for sure what it really was.

You might have won with that. I think I’ve met MAYBE 2 people in my life who actually like that cra-um-stuff.

Nope! I loved that movie when I was younger. I could probably still quote from it.  
However, I bet I’m the only person on this board who even knows who [Gackt](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaJ8aqtElSc&feature=related)is.

Other favorites from Gackt:

[Vanilla](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-OrqyUgelU&feature=related)  
[Redemption](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXp0v93ZRTs&feature=fvw)

Not quite- I know who Gackt is too. I even remember one birthday party in high school that revolved mostly around watching Malice Mizer and Gackt videos. But I never got in to visual kei or other Gackt-related music.

I bet I’m the only person who has no interest in painting, but still listens to Bob Ross painting videos just because his voice and the sound of his brush strokes are so soothing.

If I don’t win with that one, then I think “Ice Pirates” is a fantastic movie.

I’m probably the only person here who eats grilled cheese sandwiches with green olives.

Aaand, I doubt anyone else has ever heard of, let alone likes, these albums/CDs: “On the Way Down from the Moon Palace” by Lisa Germano, “Universal Juveniles” by Max Webster or “Safety in Numbers” by Crack the Sky.

Funny, I just heard Sugar Sugar on the radio yesterday (on WXRT, Chicago’s aldut contemporary station, no less!) and thought it would be a great song to play in my classic rock band (it’s mostly 70s music but we do Secret Agent Man so there is a precedent for silly 60s songs).

I also think thunderstorms are great – I stand outside under an awning to watch. When I was a kid we used to put on our bathing suits and play kickball in thunderstorms. We just stayed away from the tallest trees.

Only one post in, and you lose the bet. I hate cold water. I can drink it, but will always pull a bottle from the room temp display if I can. I don’t understand people who ask for - get this - EXTRA ICE!!! How do you drink that?

Edit - On reading posts 2 and 3, I see that you lost all three bets. Sucks to be you :p:p

I bet I’m the only person paranoid about revealing idiosyncratic details about myself on the Internet fearing it will allow the Chinese to compose a personality profile of me and then use it against me when they eventually take over the world and weed out anti communist sympathizers! :eek:

Haven’t consciously smelled them, but big crusty lab paws and soft leathery kitty paws are wonderful things to absentmindedly caress while relaxing with my babies. It makes it a lot easier when you have to groom them or inspect for injuries when they’re used to having their paws touched.

I’m one of them. I’ve listened since the NBC days.

I’ll bet that I’m the only poster that has EVERY recorded song by the band"Poco" as the entire content on my MP3 player.

I’m betting that I’m the only “civilian” on the SDMB that has shot another person (non-lethally) with a shot gun and gotten away with it.\*
