What makes you a unique doper?

So what do you think makes you unique from all the other dopers? It doesnt matter what. In my case something pretty obvious (see location: Im not having a doperfest any time soon) so what do u think makes u stand out from the crowd? No matter how mundane.

It’s me.

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say I’m the only Aggie I’ve encountered on here. (If there are any more, they’ve been hiding…) Those of ye who know what that means might consider me unique amongst dopers.

There are not a lot of South Africans on the boards, and as far as I know, I’m the only one in the UK at the moment - not much, but there you have it…

Welcome to SDMB :slight_smile:
Not to be argumentative, but that was your first post, according to your stats. So, how many other A & M graduates could you have encountered, here?

I may be the only “bear”, here, who isn’t gay, but I’m not sure about that. Aside from that, I’d have to go with Mangetout’s “I’m me”, and therefore, unique.

BTW, minega, I think it’s very cool that we have at least one African on the board.

On preview, I see we have at least one African ex-pat, as well. Cool.

I’ve been reading this board, off and on, for a year and a half or so. I used to post under this name a long time ago (but only occasionally), but one day I came back and tried to post, only to find my account died. :frowning:

No Doper has been born within the 50 US states further south then me at 35 miles north of South Point.
I’m the only Doper I know of who provides 24/7care for an elderly person** who’s a shut-in**.

  • Wll actually I escape for short walks every day since the depression of being a shut-in was really getting to me. I can’t imagine how prisoners cope.
    ** My Grandmother.
    *** For the past few weeks she’s been basically confined to her bed.

Let’s see - my username is unique. That’s about it. I share many traits with many others, altho they’re blended to make the wonderfulness that I am.

No, wait, I have it - I’m Rue’s Number One Special Friend - no one else can say that!

:smiley:

This thread, I think.

I’m the only doper I know who lives at my exact address.

I’m also one of the few dopers that is a identical twin (I’ve never actually heard of another twin doper-but I figure I’ll play the odds).

Fern Forest- I actually helped give my live-in grandmother care up until she died. She had alzheimer’s and it wasn’t pretty. My mother took care of most of it, but I helped out too. All I can say is it was hard to do day in and day out.

I may be the only American doper to have found an artifact now in the National Museum of Ireland’s collection. (FTR, it was a coin dating from the reign of Edward I.)

I’m probably the only doper to be quoted in both the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal… about Godzilla!

:wink:

Wow - do tell (or link to somewhere where you do tell).

I think I am the only Environmental PsychologIst on the boards…

I’m probably the only polymer clay artist on the boards, and I’m definitely the only polymer clay artist who is also a public school activist and freelance writer.

I’m pretty sure I’m the only Doper who has all three Japanese Phantom of the Opera CDS. And three items that reference ALW’s littlest known musical “Hulla Baloo.”

I am the only doper without a single trait unique to myself.

I’m probably the only Doper who can claim to have gone to school for all twelve years, plus kindergarten, without ever missing a single day. Perhaps there are others on this board who have done this, but I’m sure this sort of thing is a very rare achievement.

Hush! That’s how Lex Luthor figured out Clark Kent was Superman! Do you need that kind of heat?

I’m probably the only doper who can perform oral sex on himself :smiley:
