DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Tailgate Forum Spill some useless facts about yourself...

I have had hearing aids and glasses since I was five. I no longer wear my hearing aids and I now wear contacts. I am legally blind. I am "double jointed" I can put both of my feet behind my head and I have never taken gymnastics or anything like that. I really like American History. Most of my friends hate the Browns. During the summer I average half an hour a day in the batting cage with my dad. Not bragging here, but I have never not gotten a 4.0 GPA in school for a nine weeks. I am really good at Math and Science, but I find them extremely boring. Almost all of my favorite authors are British. The only one who isn't is Mike Lupica. Anytime a new book in one of my favorite series comes out, I read it in one day. Two days ago I got a 350 page book after school and read it in time for American Idol. I read some books that are only made in England, so I get to read an American version. I have a small library of books on the 2nd floor in my house. I read the 7th Harry Potter between the hours of 7:30 A.M. and 5 P.M. (I had to stop for lunch) I like to read.

j/c...

- I like to go to the driving range, and I like to play putt-putt, but I absolutely loathe golf.

- When I attended Baldwin-Wallace, there were 14 possible violations that a student could be written up for. I was charged with 13 of them, in one night. If I'd have trespassed, I would've gone 14 for 14.

- I miss the lady with the megaphone who used to yell at everyone to "stay off the grass" in front of the Science Center while walking from the Muni to the Stadium on game days. To me, she was part of the gameday experience.

- I am anxiously awaiting the return of Paradise Hotel 2.

- The top 3 celebs I most admire are Hugh Hefner, Gene Simmons, and Ric Flair.

No, not me personally, I never said YOU threw beers on hm and called him a N.

And yet you said YOU Steeler fans. And I'm saying YOU Browns fans don't have a better reputation. Don't even get me going about the bottlegate incident.

most Steelers fans, in Pittsburgh, are inbred trailer trash

Glass houses. Stones. That's all I have to say about that.

Some more I just thought of... I wear a size 14 shoe. I hate cats.

I have a cousin that has to finish one type food on her plate before moving on to the next and I know someone else that does it.

Couple useless facts about me:

- I never use the top half of the steering wheel when driving.

- I have an orange rubber band from my first Browns' game at the season opener in 99 that I haven't taken off my wrist since I got it.

- I have broken all of my fingers at least twice, but never more than one at a time.

- I set my alarm for a half hour before I actually need to be up every morning, wake up, and reset it for when I need to be up, and go back to sleep.

- I've been pulled over 12 times in my life, and haven't got 1 ticket.

- My TV has to be on ESPN when I go to sleep so that when I wake up in the morning it is already there.

- I got the lowest score possible needed to pass my driver's test.

No, you're missing the point, and it's apparent that you didn't even read my post. He did have a reaction. He was surprised, and then he laughed at it. Kinda like I laugh at you and your lame attempts at humor with all of your old, recycled Steeler jokes.

KING.

j/c

I also drive not using the top half of the steering wheel.
I also if eating a PB&J sandwich, have to have the PB on the top.
I have never broken a bone, but have had surgery on every extremity.
Starting to get a bald spot, more of a thinning spot, and that does not make me happy.
I am allergic to penicillin.
I have been to 19 countries
I have lived in 5 states.
I have 5 brothers and no sisters.

While I like the taste of onions, I can't stand finding them in any dish I'm eating. I will pick them out or stop eating. And don't get me started on onion rings.

As much as I enjoy following Cleveland sports, I'm not able to watch important close games. I get too nervous. It is really something I want to work on going forward.

I own 27 pairs of shoes. And I wear most of them often.

I have a "mancrush" on Burton snowboard gear, DC Shoe stuff and anything Under Armour (underwear, socks, pants, shirts, gloves, hats...everything).

I've liked three bands since High School....and I still listen to them 95% of the time (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins and Janes Addiction).

I wear something "Cleveland sports" whenever I go to any Chicago sporting event. The best was when I wore an Orange Braylon jersey to a Bears playoff game with blue tape over his name for their punter, Brad Maynard.

I was at the Browns/Bears game when the Bears scored two late TD's to tie and we eventually lost in OT....I didn't talk to a soul for 24 hours. Including my live-in girlfriend.

I've been in one fight my entire life....I think I lost.

When I was 7, I tripped on a curb and cracked my left front tooth in half. I've been in and out of the dentist office hundreds of time to have it fixed and refixed (and I'm scheduled for another implant in the coming months). To this day, I won't walk with both hands in my pockets for that reason.

I placed 2nd in a skatboard competition in Brunswick, Ohio with a shattered middle finger in 1990. The only tricks I fell on were ones I tried using my left hand. I had pins in my finger for 4 weeks after.

I once fell through a ceiling while hiding in the attic when the police came to our apartment in college. I still have scars on my legs from the nails.

I once fell asleep in my car while waiting outside a girls apartment when I was there to pick her up for our first date........I woke up 3 hours after I was supposed to pick her up. We never went on a date after that.

For some reason, I find it hilarious to urinate in the trash can when I'm drinking at bars. I don't know how to explain it....I just laugh, and laugh, and laugh and laugh.

I can crack almost every joint in my body (except my neck - though I used to).

I can't stand rare steak....but I eat raw sushi all the time.

I eat more Tabasco per day than any other person alive (ok, that might not be true).

I truly don't believe Cleveland will ever win a championship in any sport. Though that doesn't stop me from following their every move.

One of my favorite movies is Clueless.

I do all the cooking, all the laundry and most of the cleaning at my house. My wife does the bills.

I have five Browns jerseys.

I have too many baseball hats to count.

I used to make fun of Apple and they're customers...........and I'm now a MacNerd. And I want an iPhone more than anything.

I was also at that Browns Bears game. After giving people a hard time for most of the game, I sat my tail down at the end.

2 things made it worse. I was there with my sister in law (a huge bears fan), and the walk back to the r.v. - bears fans giving me a hard time the whole way. I will say, though, they were cool about it - never once felt threatened. More than I can say for cincy fans.

I jumped out of a speedboat going wide open......maybe 45.....dumb.

I caught a 4 lb bass after casting my line over a tree limb...couldn't get the line back from over the limb, so I just let it down into the water.

I have rented the same movies on too many occasions, so I now usually ask the guy to check my record to see if I have rented a movie before so I don't get my wife mad when I bring it home..

I hate weddings.

I like babies.

This is one of the the best threads ever.

I have cracked a collarbone when I jumped over a low fence, caught my foot and landed on my shoudler; badly sprained an ankle playing baseball, broke a bone in my hand as a teen in a fight with my older sister (hey, it was my sister ) and broke a toe when the same sister was chasing me around the house trying to beat the hell out of me when I woke her up one day. That damn well hurt, too.

I like kids ( except Ammo ) but they don't like me. My wife says I scare them.

I once crawled accross the top of a outdoor drive-in movie screen on a dare.

I love Ketchup except Heinz. I'm afraid that when John Kerry is stealing money out of his wife's purse some of it might be mine.

I have never won a spelling Bee or been asked to participate.

I'm a great Lake Erie fisherman ( better than Clay ) but never bragg....OK thats not true.

I once ran from the police on my Bicycle and got caught.

I also like Red-headed women except the really really white ones.

Nice thread. Let me see what I can add...

I broke both my wrists and cracked my head open in the same accident... It was football season, and after I got through spewing up all the remains of my painkiller, worked to get back on the field. I still wanted to play QB, so I worked on my entire motion with my cast. The hardwork paid off.
-Injury wise, I've just had alot of scrapes and bruises, I've been lucky. Sprained most of my fingers, so they get sore every now and then. My entire hand aches after working out, so I need to have both taped up.
-I love medicine.
-I also don't like weddings, too fancy for me.
-I enjoy the company of friends and family, but I love my time to myself.
-I took a road trip to Cleveland this past summer, had the time of my life. It was a pleasure meeting everyone up there.
-I like my PB and J sandwiches cut down the middle, no triangle cuts!
-I like soccer.
-While I can speak up and be talkative, I prefer to listen and pick up on things more.
-I enjoy to cook, but I'm a rather bland cook.

That's all I have to say about that.

I hate weddings and I'm a female. It's supposed to be in my DNA. speaking of DNA:

I have 22 siblings.
I only knew about the 4 until about 3 years ago.

My great great great grandfather was John Brown, activist for freeing the slaves.

Also related to Sequoyah, who created the cherokee alphabet.

My mother's side is Czech, which is what I look the most like.

1. I love the taste of Bananas but can't stand the texture in my mouth

2. I hate onions but love onion rings.

3. If there are two light switches in one room for a light I can't ever turn the light off by flipping the switch up. It has to go down for the light to go off and up for the light to go on. If I have to I will walk across the room to use the other switch.

4. I check to make sure the doors are locked before I go to bed about 3 times each night and nobody else can lock them. If they do I go behind and check to make sure they are locked.

That's what I said.

I was all state in high school football.

Our band used to march from our school to the football field on thursday nights to practice under the lights. It was about 3 blocks, and they'd march down the street.

We would sneak behind houses on the street, with eggs. When the band came, we'd lob them over the houses. Honestly, at the time, there wasn't much better than hearing band members yelling "WE'RE GETTING EGGED!!! WE'RE GETTING EGGED!!!"

If my coach would've known, well, .............it would've been bad. But man, did we have fun!

I'm not sure how that's possible.

I know it doesn't make any sense.

Made love to over 100,000 women.

Human women?

Most.

--I don't allow food in my car. If you can't finish your plate, it stays at the restaurant.

--I've never broken a bone or gotten stitches.

--I think the best part about seeing a movie is the Previews.

--When watching the Browns, I can't sit with my back resting on the back of the couch. I'm always on the edge of the seat.

--I always have this recurring dream that I didn't graduate college. It seems so vivid and real that upon waking up I have to check my diploma. I'm pretty sure this is a result of feeling guilty about partying too much in college and not studying enough.

--I've driven cross country in a U-Haul twice. Both times I was picking up my life and moving to another coast. Both times I didn't have a job waiting.

--On the second trip, drove from Atlanta to Las Vegas without stopping. Buddy of mine and I just kept switching off.

Great Thread!

I once set an outhouse on fire by throwing smoke bombs into it. The fire department had to come put it out. Imagine that smell. They weren't happy.

I caught a gold carp in a creek when I was a kid and put it in a galvanized tub to keep as a pet. I forgot about it and it froze over the winter. When I discovered this I brought it inside to thaw it out. When it thawed it started swimming again. Then it died later because I forgot to feed it.

I jumped out of an airplane (with a parachute) when I was 35 to overcome my fear of heights. I went a second time and had to cut away from the main chute and deploy the backup. Now I'm okay with heights, I'm just afraid of parachutes.

I was a vegetarian for four years but got so fat I had to start eating meat again.

I stood in Red Square but refused to go inside Lenin's tomb.

I like most foods but I hate liver and onions.

Queen is my favorite band of all time.

My favorite ice cream is Dryers chocolate. No other ice cream can ever measure up.

I love Corona, but hate it when they put a lime in it. I always tell them not to, but some bartenders are either too stupid to remember or don't care. But when they take it back and just remove it and return the same beer to me I get angry because they assume I'm too stupid to taste the citrus residue.

I start smoking cigarettes on opening day, about half way through the 1st quarter of the first Browns game. I quit when their season is over.

I've seen UFO's on four separate occasions, all while stationed in Panama, and some type of phenomenon I can't explain in Cali. My GF at the time and I were walking our dogs and we saw a bright white light streak at a angle right in front of us. It appeared from nowhere, was about 25 feet up, angled down at about 35 degrees from left to right for about 20 feet then disappeared before it hit the ground. Happened in a blink. We turned to each other and said, "Did you see that?" in unison. Neither one of us could explain it. The dogs didn't notice or didn't care.

My ex-wife, ex-mother-in-law & two ex-brother-in-laws are all in the Professional Bowlers Hall of Fame.

I didn't realize I had so many useless facts... I could go on but it's useless. Thanks, BD

The thread clearly says usless FACTS..... Does anyone even KNOW 100,000 people? Just curious
