A: I've gotten stitches several times. Probably the one w/ the most (and most memorable) was probably 8 stitches... in Mexico. :( I was bit by an iguana. Took me days to finally catch one in the hotel garden. It looked like someone took a straight razor and cut my forearm.

A: The Adirondack Mountains in New York. I've spent allot of time there, hiking, camped out in every month of the year (winter camping sucks ass the first few times), climbed several of the major mountains there, sailing, canoeing, hunting, all of that out doorsy type stuff. Fun, but I haven't been able to go there the last couple of years.

Kojima Productions, just to see how many hours of cutscenes and insane plot exposition they could cram into it before letting you actually play for a few minutes.

Why the hell are TVs with S-Video ports so damn hard to find these days?

Because S-Video sucks. RGB for the win!
Also they aren't. Just look on ebay or a local car boot sale.

A: Import skateboards for $20.00 a piece (bulk wholesale), then sell them here at skateparks for $80.00. I've sold 20 in the last week.

http://www.sk8tokyo.com

Everything on that page is sold out, I'm just too busy to update the page.
I honestly can't keep shit in stock. It sells out too quick.

A. Balloons. When I realize I'm around some my heart starts racing. If a kid plays with some it's twice as bad, and the worst is the balloon-twisting clowns.

I've watched every single race since 1997. I hope Alonso wins as he is my favourite driver since Villeneuve.
But I think Webber has the best chances. But as we've seen in the last years everything can happen in the last race.

It's a tie between PC Engine Fan X! and GaijinPunch. The former for my frothing demand to see if he's a real person, the latter for the lols and uncomfortable silence.

A)Maybe some sort of brain hemorage of some sort. You never know its there and then bam your dead, Like you dont even feel it. Is that terminal? I dunno maybe not. I think anything but AIDS would be ok i guess. At least you still have a little humant contact with cancer and such. I think even though you can actually touch some one with aids and not catch it I dont think I would want to go though that. Despite it being what it is and there being more than one way to catch it ( not just rough up the bum ) I think in the back of peoples minds people still see it as the dirty disease. At least my familly and friends dont have to defend mu honour when im gone if i died of cancer.

Q)when was the last time you cried?

A: I believe it was yesterday. I do it all the time, and, being good-natured, I usually don't try to suppress it because in vast majority of the cases I don't mean any offense. My granddad's funeral three years ago gave me one of the hardest times in my life because the way the orthodox priest sang while swinging the censer was just too funny, but not suppressing it there would generate unspeakable amounts of hatred towards myself.

Q: Anybody else thinks honesty is generally the best policy?

A) yes. And if its because you cheated on your wife and you are honest about it then you deserve everything you have coming to you. which brings me to my next question.

i learned to throw toilet paper in the toilet before dropping my kids at the pool so i don't have to risk them splashing me when they drop in from courtesy of the useless facts thread soooo long ago. that fact changed the way i use a public restroom and i am grateful for it. however, this can't be done in brazil from what i hear.

anyone here ever been stabbed or impaled by something, or just had something stab into you and be able to stick out from being in so deep? bonus points if it was sort of your own fault and you can laugh about it now

A: I had a jagged vinyl record thrown at me by another kid on the playground back when I myself was 8 or so. It had bits of it chipped off by obstactles we were throwing it at, so by the end it looked like a crummy sawblade. At one point I sat down to tie my shoes, heard a strange sound and raised my head only to see this disc rolling at me. The next second it lodged itself into my forehead. Didn't penetrate the brain, but stuck into the skin well enough to stay there and let me pull it out myself. Which I did, stared at it for a second, realized I had blood pouring down my face, and ran after that kid. He was scared shitless by my look, so I didn't manage to catch him. My mom was terrified as well. :lol: It didn't really hurt, though.

Q: Any other funny injuries you have experienced?

A: Assuming other planets are Mars, then yes, likely. Otherwise just going to the nearest guaranteed-inhabitable planet will most definitely require more time than I'm willing to give humanity to destroy itself or enter a state of being where interstellar journeys aren't feasible/possible/required somehow.

Which brings me to my question!
