Share bizarre out-of-context personal statistics!

I think you need to start taking your dates to the movies instead of to restaurants. Less chance of them finding a knife.

I own enough pairs of earrings to wear a different pair every day of the year.

A good friend of mine at school was exactly the same age as me - we were born about an hour apart from each other, in the same hospital. We both had sisters (well, still do, I guess) that also shared a birthday (although mine was 2 years older, his was 2 years younger).

While I was married to her, my ex had the exact same name as my mother - even the middle name. That got confusing at times…

I once stood as close as possible to the exact opposite side of the world from where I was born (I was hoping for the exact opposite, but that would have involved a boat!). Interestingly, that turned out to be about 30 miles away from where an ex girlfriend of mine lived.

I have been told that I don’t have tonsils, and I have never undergone a tonsillectomy.

Lots of surgery, I conclude?

I never had wisdom teeth. My dentist says that means I’m more highly evolved.

4 of the 5 companies I worked at in the 1990s no longer exist. I worked at the 5th one for a mere 7 weeks.

I have been within 25 feet of a lightning strike twice.

I was the very first doper to post the phrase Rio, by Duran Duran.

Heck, all you had to do was ask, you could’ve had a set of mine. :slight_smile:

Seriously, I think the first and second times were bungled procedures. Third time’s the charm.

When I was 29, I had a fling with a woman who was 48. When I was 40, I had a fling with a woman who was 24.

I am eligible for membership in the Mayflower Society, the SAR and the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War.

I’ve moved to permanent new homes 23 times in my life.

I’ve made as little as $1.75/hr and as much as $150K/yr.

Bottom left and a full bone extraction. It hurt more than the other 4 combined.

(I had mine done under IV sedation and was semi-awake for the fun)

I was told by the podiatrist that I had the largest medial sesamoid he’d ever seen. This is apparently clinically insignificant, but mildly interesting.

I have all four wisdom teeth, despite the fact that one orthodontist and three or four dentists recommended having them removed before they caused me problems. (They have never caused any problems. That did not stop yet another dentist from recommending I have them removed well after all four were fully erupted.)

Exactly 50% of my past sexual partners have, at the time, identified as an ‘incompatible’ sexuality (i.e., men identified as gay or women as straight).

And why did you do this? Are you an animal researcher?

Everybody needs a hobby.

I have had 3 operations since 1999 on my penis. I would like to say that they were making improvements & installing upgrades, but I can not.

My grandfather was a descendant of one of the court magistrates at the Salem witch trials. His wife, my grandmother, was a descendant of one of the accused witches, although she was not one of those who were actually tried.

This was a complete surprise to the family and was discovered when my aunt did a genealogical history of her parents.

I had 3 aunts and uncles, some by blood some by marriage. All 3 uncles were named Harold. All 3 aunts were named Betty.

The log cabin built in 1853 by my great-great-great-grandfather is on display at a Utah theme park.

I have only one testicle.

In 2004, I counted all the platted lots in Lehigh Acres, FL. Approximately 152,000 of them.

Between the ages of 16 and 22, my educational institutions swapped between 3-term-years and the semester system 5 times in a row.

Yup, it was for SCIENCE! Most of the worms lived a longer-than-natural life span, actually. My project was mostly looking for mutants that had a normal life span under conditions that extended the life span of normal worms.

Which basically involved poking 'em with a stick to see if they’re still alive.

I had one boyfriend with only one testicle. The count for boyfriends with two testicles is … a little longer.

A friend asked me for a false name for some reason. The one I chose immediately off the top of my head … there’s no one else with those names.

But it was a stick of SCIENCE!:smiley:
