I enjoy DMX to the point where, when listening to his music, I like to rap out loud in public. No shame. Talk is cheap, mother fucker.
I've also never broken a bone.

One time, my sister got the bright idea to place one of those giant exercise balls on top of a gym's treadmill. The ball made the treadmill.. like... Rotate completely perpendicular to the ground and then tip sloooowly over like a toppling tree and flop on top of me.
Somehow escaped serious injury.

When I was 17 I took 4th in a tournament for the video-game Godzilla: Save the Earth at G-Fest '06. During the same time, I was ranked 6th in the world within the admittedly miniscule and buggy online competitive scene.
I mained 90's era Godzilla and I was freakin' majestic.

Holy crap, Kelly. That's legit!
Let's see.... I have a bunch of ducks that I look after, including Mandarin ducks and like four Muscovys. Some might be hatching soon, too!

All this talk about not breaking any bones. I broke:
: right wrist twice
Several ribs (punctured lung along with it)
Right knee
Left arm
Left collar bone ( this one was actually pierced through the skin. Got a shiny metal plate in my shoulder. Someone said invincible? I'm freaking RL iron man! Only real men do crazy shit to get fcked up like that!

I once melted liquid aluminum to my foot in a horribly tragic kitchen accident. In the same stride I almost burned the house down. (link)

When I was like eight I ate this dog treat and it was actually pretty alright?????? Like, I didn't die, it was just super dry and kinda of a weird jelly/grain consistency.... so, yeah. Lol.

That's about the same age my uncle tricked me into dog food.
RE: Random Facts About You - Omni - 05-03-2017
Only bone I've broken is my tibia. My mum had told my dad "don't go unless you get another adult to supervise them both." My dad told me "Don't leave the side of the ice rink".
Guess how many people listened to others that day.
I guess I also broke my little toe, from kicking a desk accidentally. Worst. Stub. Ever.
RE: Random Facts About You - Jade Harley - 05-03-2017
I had this weird phase where I wanted to be a pirate SO BAD. My reasoning was that I loved oranges and things so I'd never get scurvy (POTC films probably had a lot to do with it, too). Also, no more school. AND SAILING SHIPS AND CANNON BATTLES ON THE HIGH SEAS YAR-HAR-HARRR
RE: Random Facts About You - Omni - 05-03-2017
I wanted to be a dog, or a parrot. I used to imitate animals. Once I took all my clothes off and went around on all fours, because that's what dogs do.
RE: Random Facts About You - Trixie - 05-04-2017
I constantly think everyone around me hates me or is plotting to get rid of me.
RE: Random Facts About You - Jade Harley - 05-04-2017
I have this weird thing where I fall in love with 1:3 of the people I meet. Maybe not love exactly, but it's earnest enough to feel really overwhelming sometimes. I've never been clingy or overeager to hang out with anyone, but... Iunno, there's some people that I just genuinely like so much, even more than family, and I find myself thinking about how I'd totally spend the rest of my life with them if they'd only ask. Weird.

I have something very close to this. I get incredibly physically affectionate with anyone I consider my friend. Or even a coworker. And if I don't get enough physical affection, I tend to lapse into a funk.

I'm "on the spectrum", I have mild/high-functioning Asperger's. Used to have a habit of speaking in total monotone, but I forced myself to engage socially and through my later teenage years I basically self-trained myself into using body language and intonation like a second language. As someone with Asperger's, it feels like exaggerating everything you do. But, you would never guess I was on the spectrum unless you knew me well, because of that. The defining traits for me would be a total obsessiveness over things and an inability to focus on anything other than my obsession (this has diluted as I got older). I absolutely embrace it as part of myself and love to get obsessed over things, like the Omniverse, and totally immerse myself in a subject. I genuinely get depressed when I don't have a 'focus'.
The downside is that this also applies to love, and I find it extremely hard to break that single-minded nature once it's in place. This is where my nature inadvertently causes me extreme pain, because it can take me years to emotionally detach from someone.
The other trait I would say is a lessened interest in social interaction. It's not that I can't, but I've come to realise I simply don't get the same enjoyment out of it that other people do. In fact, much of the time I'd just rather be alone. I feel like lately I've come full circle and returned to "original Greg"; I'm burnt out with human beings and I'd rather just stick to online interactions where I have more control and can step out without the pressure of feeling like I'm being rude. Part of that's also probably disillusionment/exasperation/depression.

I'm a big fan of Harry Potter. When I turned 11, on my birthday, my mom faked a knock in the room, then walked in with a letter made of parchment with a wax seal. The letter was very convincing, from Dumbledore (he was still alive then) but spelled wrong. That only hit me later, I was practically hyperventilating. They apparently had an address in New York! Actually dying!!!!
The address was my normal school.
"Next week on Evil Moms..."

There was once this story somewhere on the interwebs about a kid (Elementary school I believe) who said that if it had a million dollars it would do something like that... send a fake Hogwarts letter to someone, set up a fake Diagon Alley with special effects and actors pretending to be wizards, then when the person gets to Kings Cross and runs into a wall, there would be confetti and a sign saying "Magic isn't real" as the victim lays there hurting from having smashed into a rock wall.
