Nobody believes...

[MRGisevil]

Ok new game inspired by a.) too many serious posts on the forum today and b.) nobody in my office believes me about something. Point of this game is to post something about you that, despite how many times you've mentioned or defended it, nobody believes. I'll start off as an example:



"...that my favorite food is un-seasoned white rice. I even spent a year eating nothing but white rice for lunch every day."

Have at it...

I am incredibly introverted and test really high on autistic spectrum scales. Most folks who meet me think I'm an extrovert, but it's all learned behavior that I had to adopt for my job. Seriously, stick me alone in a room with a huge library or internet access and I could probably stay there until I died, no problem.

Doesn't leave much time to ACTUALLY go skiing then huh?

 

[OppositeGeorge]

Maybe putting me in a cave on the side of a hill with internet access and books would be better. :smile:

IRL, about 90% of my ski trips are solo (you don't have or need too many friends that share your interests when you're wired like me) and so I get to spend lots of me time in the car to and from the hill. Also got no problem zoning out on the lift.

Yeah, that's much better. I also fly solo most of the time. Everyone says they ski, but when it comes time to actually ski, most figure out a reason not to go. I just don't understand some people.

People find hard to accept that I now believe that there is no God or ever was ... and to think at one point in my life I wanted to attend Oral Roberts ....

Dude, I've heard anywhere from 20 - 50% of students at top div school grad programs are atheists.

Amen, Bro -- damn people, always screwing up my plans too. Always making you wait, wait, WAIT for everything, but I'm an alarm-goes-off, out-the-door and on-the-hill kind of guy. People always want to stop for breakfast, lunch, snack, number 1, number TWO -- lucky if you get 10 runs in.

If I'm invited for a day on the slopes I try to look at it as a character-building exercise and try not to get too disappointed if there isn't that much snow time involved. That's the only thing that keeps me from banging my head against the gondola wall singing songs to myself (really -- I told you I was weird.)

Dude, that's just weird... :blink:

No one ever believes that I used to be a woman...

Uhhh, I have to agree. I like white rice, but it has to have butter or...something...on it! Though I could happily eat pasta every meal, every day of the week. Though looking at me, that's probably not hard to believe at all.

No one ever believes that I used to be a woman...

Yeah, it was a very convincing operation.

I am allergic to salt.

 

[bvibert]

I have never met you do I don't know how attractive (ugly) you was when you was a woman ... at least now I will understand why I will want to have sex with you when I do ( I believe technically this doesn't mean I am gay { not that there is anything wrong with that} because you used to be a woman)
I used to be a pig .. strike that some say I still am ...

Remind me not to attend any gatherings that you're going to be at...

 

[Hawkshot99]

I might believe your allergic to the iodine they put in salt but not salt itself.. I don't believe that .. the body needs salt to function without it you die. So I don't believe it..:lol:

Well technically i am not allergic to salt, but my body can not handle it like a normal person. My kidneys can not process it and it dehydrates me very easily.

nephrogenic diabetes insipidus

So for all intensive purposes I am allergic to slat

I don't believe, I used to be in really good shape:

 

[Mildcat]

Is that really you finishing a marathon in three and a half hours?

 

[wa-loaf]

I was in Berlin when the Wall came down.

 

[andyzee]

Is that really you finishing a marathon in three and a half hours?

Yep, did it in 3:20 the following year. Guess that fits into "Nobody believes..." :lol:

 

[Mildcat]

I was in Berlin when the Wall came down.

So it was you that caused the wall to come down.

 

[wa-loaf]

So it was you that caused the wall to come down.

Yup, that was all me. Reagan and Gorbachev took all the credit.

I don't believe, I used to be in really good shape:

Mine is.. I don't believe anyone thinks I used to be in good shape. I guess that's why instead of saying "when I was a kid" or " 40 years ago" or "when I was in college"... I find myself using the historical reference "50 pounds ago".

Nobody believes I had a euro style van with half a dozen people parked on my foot.
