Reveal something totally unexpected about yourself - Shock and awe awaits - Don't powerlevel

Some of mine are
Well ok this one scar is...it's one I made starting long ways on my arm...the direction you go when you wanna....well end it but it then kinda pulls away as it goes until its on the back of my hand and not my wrist. And even if I hadn't changed direction the cut would have been scratch on the surface since now you can barley tell it's there.



Oh and you wanna know why I was almost about to open my left arm? It was after my dad saw the cuts. He was real drunk and I mean real drunk and this was during a time when me and him did not get along because I was barley making ends meet at the time even worse than now. Anyway he saw the marks on my arm (the ones not self inflicted) and said "if you wanna kill yourself you're supposed to go long ways not sideways...that's how one of my old squad mates from the army went." And then went on about how everyone from his platoon either necked themselves, or went postal and shot up a place or two.


I was drunk too so..yeah I was like ok fine you wanna tell how me I'm supposed to cut to off myself instead of maybe... trying to work things out fine.

but yeah I obviously changed my mind never even wanted to end it, maybe just leave a mark for the next time he saw and realize how he almost made his son kill himself.



Trust me it was a long time ago and things are much better between us now... mostly
 
My blood type is O+

So if any of you need a blood transfusion and you're compatible with me, send me a PM and you too can have a pint of piss pumped into your arteries
My blood type is O+, I've been monogamous for years, I have excellent cholesterol, and I've never donated blood because, despite having placed many an IV catheter myself, it's. . . it's too freaky when it's my own arm.
 
I don't smoke or drink any alcoholic beverages whatsoever. Either than that, I'm pretty boring.
 
@FuckedUp reminded me, I have a family member that hung out with Nirvana just before they really got popular. More of a "Powerlevel about your family" story but I still find it fascinating.

This family member and their friends rented out a warehouse, which served as both an apartment and a club. Because they held a bunch of concerts there, they had connections with some guy in the music industry and he gave them a tape of Nirvana's Bleach demo. (Unfortunately they don't have it anymore, because I imagine a real demo copy, not a rerelease, would be pretty valuable nowadays.) They drove out of state to a tiny club to see Nirvana. From what this family member says, Kurt and Dave were pretty cool and outgoing guys, but they don't remember Krist at all. He was just kinda quiet and kept to himself.

They have similar stories about less famous bands from the early grunge days, but Nirvana is easily the biggest one. Their life in their late-teen/early-20s was fucking wild. They basically would pay the rent with a wagie retail job, then go home and party with bands and girls, dumping all the money the club made back into the club. It was the late-80's/early-90's, so they were able to run this place without the cops or the government bothering them until they were ready to move on. Other family members have confirmed that the warehouse/club thing was real and they're probably actually toning down the stories. I have suggested that they write a book because it's genuinely fascinating to me, but they said those are great memories, but they've moved on.
 
It can take me up to 3 hours to fall asleep without melatonin.
Have you tried alcoholism?

There are some days I just don't sleep.
I haven't slept since I woke up and found my whole life was a lie motherfucker, you are the end of everything; this is the end of everything

I haven't slept since 8 am Monday, but that's because of a fucked work schedule this week. Plus side, I'm about to eat turkey and pass out for 12 hours or so.

EDIT: Oh my, I just realized this is the first of four Thanksgivings for which I am bespoke over the next three days.

Morituri te salutant.

When I was wearing braces in my teens I stupidly didn't apply the wax they provided me with to prevent the braces from cutting up the inside of my cheeks.

This is pretty grim, but I have a small flap of flesh on the left side of my inner cheek from where it was cut up.

Don't get flaps - use the wax
 
In preparation for Thanksgiving I played Chicken Invaders 4: Thanksgiving Edition.

What?
