Sorry, I meant a thespian.

@wundayatta…have you? :D

I never learned how to drive. I can’t swim, either.

I’m not as tough as I make myself out to be.

I’m not as stupid as some think.

I love pillows. Some people knows this. But you have absolutely no idea how insane my love for pillows is.

I was once highly disturbed by a zombie movie.

I snore.

I do weird stuff in the tub.

I love the colour pink.

I saw a decapitated pig on the river bank once.

I like drawing.

No word of a lie, these are all true.
Thanks, later.

@Symbeline

You are such a cool little thing. I have a light bulb and lamp fetish too, my daughter bitches at me because my entire house is in mood lighting format.
I refuse to let the government dictate what kind of light bulbs I use. Fuck ‘em! haha

wundayatta's avatar

@Symbeline The answer is in my comment. I don’t see how I can make it any clearer.

Well, not without losing my aura of mystery!

JilltheTooth's avatar

@wundayatta : Oh, sure. Rub it in. You still have an aura of mystery…

Ya know, I have a great filming location…hot tub and sheep.

TexasDude's avatar

I love all animals, but I am a total cat person. I get so excited anytime I see a cat and I always have to try and pet it or hold it.

I’ve only ever had two “official” girlfriends.

I’ve collected African ethnographic art since I was little. I own a Congolese death mask and a piss pot from Zaire, among several other pieces. I actually met a Zulu tribesman who was living in the US when I was 10 and he was so fascinated with the fact that I appreciated African art that he offered to give me his spear he brought to the US with him, but I lost his phone number and never got it. :-(

I stutter a lot.

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard

God, why, WHY are you not like 45? haha

TexasDude's avatar

@Coloma because I was born in 1990 :-(

Kardamom's avatar

I’ve never been to a hair stylist or hair cutting place. I have long-ish hair and I trim my own bangs and my mom trims the back of my hair. I don’t trust anyone else with my hair.

I own a banjo (but I don’t yet know how to play it).

I can’t stand eggplant (even though I’m a vegetarian and like just about everything else that fits into that category from Brussels sprouts to fake meat and everything in between)

I’ve never seen the X-files or X-men or an X-rated movie (and have no desire to)

I just learned to make home made cinnamon rolls a couple of nights ago.

I love Liberace!

I would love to have some of those giant Chinese Lanterns that hang over the Teacups ride at Disneyland in my backyard.

I’ve never tasted a chutney that I didn’t like.

I love pickled vegetables.

I loved the movie Blades of Glory (although I really cannot stand Will Ferrell in any other movie, except that one)

I love succulent plants.

It cracks me up every time I hear Guy Fieri (from Diners Drive-ins and Dives) say, “Look at the bark on that thing” when he’s referring to the crust on a piece of brisket. Just because I know he’s going to say it, and then he holds up a piece, right next to the camera, so you can see it. And I think he’s a cutie!

Berserker's avatar

@wundayatta Yeah but you know…just in case there’s a story behind that. :)

@Coloma You should check out those twirly ones that last for like six years. Funny looking and easy on the eyes, I swear by those muthas.

chyna's avatar

@Joker94 I’m totally impressed, but not surprised.
@Symbeline Love all your answers, but you are wrong on #3. I doubt there is anyone here that thinks you are stupd.
I haven’t been on a date in 3 years. There, I said it.

jonsblond's avatar

I lived near Liberace when I was growing up and I trick-or-treated at his house every year. His doorman handed out bags full of pennies.

Neizvestnaya's avatar

I have 4 sisters, 2 brothers and a twin cousin who is male (I’m female).

laureth's avatar

I used to live near several of the Michigan Murder locations. I’m talking “in the next dorm over” or “a few houses down” or “just around the corner.”

They occurred a few years before I was born, but it’s still creepy.

my bathroom has a pink toilet

wundayatta's avatar

@Coloma Well, really, dear, I’m quite flattered by your invitation and I would love to take you up on it. However my schedule <ahem> is booked up until at least, oh 2075, by which time I shall have been long dead (don’t ask).

@Symbeline The story behind the story? Well, I could tell you, but then I’d have to lock you in my dungeon and you would like that faaaaaar too much!

AmWiser's avatar

I secretly have a crush on….........

@Symbeline

Got one! It’s psychedelic 60 watt Orange and it’s in a black, yellow and red stained glass lamp! The effect is awesome!

Well damn, I thought after the hot tub and ewes, well…my 9 X 11 Persian Odabashian rug just SCREAMS for some background action. lolol

Mariah's avatar

(I’ve probably mentioned most of these things at some point.)

I play the oboe pretty well. I also play piano, but not very well. I mostly play a lot of video game music on the piano to get g33k cr3d.

I draw, mostly digitally on a Wacom tablet. I have epic photoshop skillz.

I go to a small technical college where the male to female ratio is close to 3:1.

I was my high school class valedictorian.

cookieman's avatar

I was obsessed with Basset Hounds growing up and all through college until finally, my girlfriend got me one.

Daisy. Had her for over ten years until she passed. Sweetest dog ever.

Jude's avatar

@cprevite My favorite breed of dog. :) I would love to have a female and call her Miss Banana Puddin’.

wundayatta's avatar

@Coloma A 9 X 11 Persian Odabashian rug? Well why didn’t you say so? Look. I’m going to have a word with my handlers (you want to join the crew, lol?), and see if they can’t find a way to squeeze you. I mean, squeeze you in. Or squeeze me in y….. well, you get the drift. I’ll have my people be in touch with your ewes. Or some suitable facsimile.

Oh dear. @Mariah is an oboe player. And I am a trumpet player. There’s a rule about these things you know. Be still my beating heart!

Berserker's avatar

@chyna Thanks. :) Yeah I’m just being all dramatic and shit lol. XD I should probably concentrate on the positive that’s been said of me rather than the negative, which the latter isn’t as prominent. Still pisses me off though lol.

@Coloma Sounds quite epic. I used to always buy those purple, red and green stoner bulbs and stick em in my room lol. It was pretty awesome lol.

@wundayatta If it has either pillows/bony human remains, I’m there, man. :)

bob_'s avatar

I am color blind.

I always did extremely well in school.

I am a taekwondo black belt.

wundayatta's avatar

@Symbeline There are definitely pillows. But I can’t tell you what they are made of, nor what they do. You’d have to find that out for yourself. If you dare.

KateTheGreat's avatar

I was born at Walter Reed Hospital.

I wrote a poem in 1st grade about being a sunflower and it was published in the local newspaper.

King_Pariah's avatar

@JLeslie I HATE Walter Reed, 6 weeks 15 hours and 21 minutes of utter boredom

Sunny2's avatar

I was a private detective in San Francisco.

lillycoyote's avatar

I have a thing for jute and I have never been so careless as to lose the phone number of a Zulu tribesman. And fuck @tranquilsea, you’re old???? I graduated from college ten years after you graduated from high school, I was 33 when @Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard was born! You don’t even know old, and there are people here who will be more than happy to explain to me that I don’t even know old.

But, @Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard I met Gregory Corso once, and I know you’re a fan of his… I met him, he bummed a cigarette from me and we hung out on the sidewalk in NYC, with a mutual friend, of sorts, for about 10 minutes, while they negotiated a transaction… it was when I was in high school. I also met Peter Orlovsky that same trip, the same afternoon, I think, he was a minor poet and Allen Ginsberg’s long time partner, at their apartment, he was painting, the walls of their apartment that is, but Ginsberg was out so I didn’t get to meet him… so am I still cool? Even though I’m old as dirt?

WestRiverrat's avatar

@King_Pariah Walter Reed is better than punching your ticket to Arlington any day.

The_Idler's avatar

I have a deep appreciation for the beauty of flowers.

I planted opium poppies (Papaver somniferum) all over the town when I was 15.
It’s legal in the UK, by the way, until you harvest opium from them.
Beautiful flowers, some of them, especially the more highly-contrasted of the paeony-types…
generally less therapeutically potent but visually stunning!

I just had the first taste of this year’s crop. =}

Over the course of a few lunch-breaks at school, when I was 16, I used various wi-fi networks I hacked with my netbook, a few ‘borrowed’ mail-boxes, and fraudulent details obtained from (very rich, very serious) Russian gangsters, to swindle international ‘distributors’ out of around £1,000-worth of illegal drugs, and had them shipped into the country to be sold on, for ~2000% profit, just as an entertaining and challenging diversion. (Now there’s a good sign that GCSEs need to be made harder!)

When we were in Y10&11, we’d have these huge parties in abandoned warehouses, fuelled with vodka, ganja, imported drugs and large cylinders of compressed, medical-grade nitrous oxide (laughing gas), which was casually obtained directly from the stores of the nearby general hospital, by a 15 year old me wearing a white coat as ‘disguise’.

I have never been arrested.

Of course, these are all complete lies and I am not even a real person – here – I am an icon and a story… <_<
More details on request =P

TexasDude's avatar

@lillycoyote that’s absolutely awesome! Did I ever tell you about the girl I was involved with whose mom had pictures of Gregory Corso and Allen Ginsburg naked together in the shower from a party she threw? I totally saw the pictures!

lillycoyote's avatar

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard So you still think I’m cool? :-) And no, you didn’t tell me about your mom and her naked party pictures of Ginsburg and Corso. That’s pretty awesome too. That’s history.

TexasDude's avatar

@lillycoyote of course I think you’re cool! And it wasn’t my mom. It was a ladyfriend’s mom.

lillycoyote's avatar

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard Oops! I was just going into say that that should have been Ginsberg not Ginsburg, and saw your post so I will now add that that should have been “your lady friend’s mom” not “your mom.” So… I believe I have corrected most of my errors, at least the one’s I’ve made on Fluther in the last 15 minutes… that’s only a fraction of my errors but I do the best I can to keep up.

Did you ever work with Adrian Monk? ;-p

MissAnthrope's avatar

I could be very shocking right now.

FutureMemory's avatar

@MissAnthrope Don’t tease us! Spill it ;)

MissAnthrope's avatar

All right.. I am sufficiently inebriated to where I don’t give a damn. :P

This won’t be shocking to the two or three of you I divulge my darkest secrets to. You’ll just yawn and roll your eyes at me for talking about it again.

I’m basically trying to figure out how to fit the following into my regular life, including Fluther.. but what you don’t know about me is that I am currently serving a Mistress. Yes, that kind of Mistress. She doesn’t own me or anything, I’m just her girl friday and she beats on me in the bestest ways. (honestly, though, it’s so much more than that) I really enjoy making people happy, particularly pretty ladies, so it works out for everyone, really. :]

FutureMemory's avatar

Wow! I wasn’t expecting anything like that..

TexasDude's avatar

Well you certainly have my attention.

Brian1946's avatar

@augustlan

Didn’t you cross paths with a serial killer awhile back?

augustlan's avatar

Ooh, yes! I did! Newer folks might not know that one, so thanks @Brian1946.

This guy, who killed four people before he was caught, grew up with my ex-husband. They were pretty good friends as teenagers, and when my ex and I bought our first house together, he came to dinner. Fast forward several years, and he’s a freaking murderer!

FutureMemory's avatar

@augustlan Had he started killing by the time of the aforementioned dinner party?

augustlan's avatar

@FutureMemory No. Well, not that we know of anyway!

Stinley's avatar

I once cycled 120 miles through the night from London to Dunwich in Norfolk

I was in a band for a day. Never practiced again with the band (I forgot what it was called, probably something like “Christian massacre”) but I distinctly remember playing a lot of covers and the original material was incredibly difficult to play.
Never did any recreational drugs save for Salvia. I didn’t trip balls, but time felt slow.

Bad day.

@Jude if it is artsy or has a unique storyline, I can get into it, but that particular variety is hard to find.

MRSHINYSHOES's avatar

I used to build little shelters in the backyard for stray dogs and cats when I was growing up, and nurse them back to health when they were sick, hungry, and emaciated. I cared and found homes for more than 30 cats and dogs when they used to wander into our yard abandoned and lost. I kept two cats and two dogs for myself and gave them odd names like Merko, Lindo, Blackie, and Soty.

I’m great at arm-wrestling.

I am still attracted to Agnetha Faltskog of ABBA.

Facade's avatar

All my stuff is pretty much out there but here goes…
– I had both oral and anal sex before vaginal so that I could say that I was still a virgin. I love loopholes, fabricated or not!
– I wouldn’t have any problem killing someone who I thought deserved it.
– I have a hard time with things like crossing the street and peeling fruit because my parents wouldn’t let me do those things when I was younger. Very embarrassing, but I’m getting better
– I can’t seem to be friends with a pretty girl without wanting to do her…
– I still have marks on my hands from getting rips when I was a gymnast.

Also, my boyfriend’s here now. Go say hi!

bob_'s avatar

@Facade “I can’t seem to be friends with a pretty girl without wanting to do her…”

Hawt.

Ah, @Coloma , there’s a good chance that those genes for a perfect dental arch may never have a chance to manifest. Look at my username and imagine my distress about that… ;-)
