    I have an extra rib. Anyone need one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    I'm the same, i still take baby antibiotics.
    But if i gotta take a pain killer i just bite it.

    I have an overwelming fear of dirty baby socks.
    I'd rather be insulted than complimented.
    I probably drink twice may weight of water a day, and always stiil feel thirsty.

    While never baptised / christened, I was raised as a jehovah's witness.

    When I was young young, mind! Until I was about 10 and was allowed to not care about religion anymore.

    Not being funny, but have you been tested for diabetes? That's a big symptom.
    My little sis just got diagnosed there a few months ago with type II, and her ONLY symptom was being super thirsty.

    My weird fact for today...I can touch my nose with my tongue :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,021 ✭✭✭LadyE


    I love baby anitibiotics, the yellow stuff :)

    Odd fact about me..dont think I have any..well, they are not odd to me.

    Oh, I can only turn the tv up onto an even number.

    such a creature of habit, once im in my day to day rythm it is very hard for me to break out of it
    e.g get the same breakfast everyday at the same time in work, to the point where the other staff have it waiting for me :pac: They try get me to try new stuff but i politely say no.
    It will end this week when work ends, will have to forge out a new groove for college then all will be well again :D

    LadyE&Will - OCD!
    Not rippin the piss, i go to counceling for it.
    Some times i cant leave the house in the morning for HOURS, untill i get things right.
    But im pretty extreme.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,021 ✭✭✭LadyE


    I dont think its OCD territory..I did used to have a thing whether I was convinced id left the irno on (I did once, and burnt my cousin with it) to the point Id have to check it was in the press before I left, and if I forgot I used to leg it home to check..nightmare.

    Dont do that anymore thank god! Used to have me worrying all the time!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,183 ✭✭✭✭Will


    It doesn't affect me day to day, like I won't be house bound if my socks aren't matching or something ;)
    I did develop an irrational fear of my post box in lyon though, that was hilarious

    And i thought the baby sock thing was weird. hahaha

    What was wrong with the post box?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 952 ✭✭✭Fiii


    I have a fear of street performers.
    Like, not the musical kind...but you know those headcases who stand still for hours? Yeah, do NOT love them AT ALL!!
    Oh, and clowns. Scare the bejaysus out of me.
    *shudders*

    Sounds like a friend of mine, when I'm walking down grafton street with him I have to keep him at the side of the road opposite to the "performers", and still deal with him muttering angrily about them . . .

    Same guy's also afraid of milk . . .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,183 ✭✭✭✭Will


    Ah nothing, I just didn't wanna open it cos i knew there would be bills in it.

    Odd fact about me;

    I am ambidextrous due to me breaking my left arm at the age of 4, was forced to write with my right hand in school. Do most things with my left hand but can switch handily enough.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,082 ✭✭✭Captain Ginger


    Ok well for me I CAN'T eat a sandwitch with the butter on the top, it HAS to be on the bottem slice of bread. When it comes to chocolate biscutes or jafacakes the topping has top be on the top when I eat them, I don't understand how people can eat them upside down.

    My mates have to do the same. Most try to distract me so that I don't notice them, because if I do, I tend to dig my nails into the nearest arm in fear :(
    Went to Barcelona a few years ago- they were EVERYWHERE!! I was freakin out.

    Milk however, I loooove milk. Drink a couple of litres a day.

    Fact: If I get upset or stressed my stomach flips out. So much so, that I developed a stomach ulcer aged 22. Ouchy!
