Title: Okay just so everyone knows...
Post by: Selphos on September 29, 2007, 08:16:57 pm
A little something about me.

My hands look like this:(http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/8863/0929071656ri4.jpg)

I've got a comment.

Wasn't that floor carpeted in the pic you sent me?

That's a bathroom floor. I'm in a different house.

Oh by the way, that thing at the bottom is my knee >_>

It's a bit scarier than in my imagination. Everything is always better in my imagination...

The drawing looked more deformed/scary than this pic. Though I can't see how you can draw it correctly. >_>

<_<
>_>

I am suddenly reminded of the TUSC chat a while back when you told us this. I also want to ask the question everybody asks you but I won't and will save you the trouble of wondering how you do what everyone asks you.... or something? iono

Edit: Fine.

In TUSC's chat you were telling us this and then I mentioned something stupid that was "how do you wank teh crank?" In which you responded "Everybody at school asks me that, which leaves me awake at wondering how >_>" or something similar to that. I was kind of wondering if you found an answer <__<

ps. how do people in RL take you having that condition?

The better question is why this is relevant, and why you feel like posting this now. I wonder what other disfigurements we're all hiding...

I demand pictures from other members, or at least a description. Half the skin on my foot has been burnt off permanently, leaving me with only a single thin layer to protect the bone and veins beneath, and I have very bad exema.

It's probably in poor taste, but right now I feel like watching "Manos: The Hands of Fate".

Discuss flaws, eh?

About my worst physical disfigurements are the scar from breaking my arm as a kid, and the occasional in-grown toenails, which I inherited from my father.

This one isn't visible, but I've also got tinnitus.  Remember, kids, loud music is bad for you.

That sucks.

How can you play video games with such a hand?!
Title: Re: Okay just so everyone knows...
Post by: ChaoRC on September 30, 2007, 03:26:11 pm
O.O

I was gonna ask the same thing, P.P.A. How is it possible to have, uhh, that deformation in your hands and be in any video game timed record site? I find that odd. =/

I would like to ask how you got that in the first place, but now i'm just being rude. I don't want to bother you with something thats too personal if you are not okay with it.

And just a random thing Iv had surgery when I was a baby. still got what I believe is stiches in
my stomach.

I've got a 6 degree back curvature but that is about it :/

Can't remember the picture (and it isn't up now) but I guess if you at least have two fingers on each hand, you could play video games decently...

edit: nevermind... one finger on your right hand? How do you play :(?

Post by: Alondite on October 01, 2007, 11:46:50 pm
erm... well.... I have a big scar on the inside of my right knee from a Motocross crash. I have pretty bad (and mostly permanent) tendonitis in both of my achille's tendons and up my shins. The tendons on my left knee are growing into my kneecap. my teeth are also not in great shape heh. I don't really have any major "disfigurements" though.

By the way, it's my birthday.

Post by: Thorn on October 02, 2007, 07:03:07 pm
Hm, it's amazing how in chat we all wonder how you do these things, and when I look at the pics I think, "Huh, why didn't I think of that?"

This has also been informative in that I now know what has independent movement and what doesn't.
Title: Re: Okay just so everyone knows...
Post by: Selphos on October 02, 2007, 07:04:16 pm
Right, that thumblike finger on my left is completely attached to the one next to it. I'd swear it's one bone.
Title: Re: Okay just so everyone knows...
Post by: Groudon on October 02, 2007, 07:06:12 pm
Guess Free Bird has gotta be tough for you.
Anyway, never thought of holding the controllers like that with your condition.  Guess competitiveness in F-Zero GX or Mario Kart DS is out of the question.
Title: Re: Okay just so everyone knows...

Well that answers one question.

ps. Happy Birthday (tho I already told you this morning)

I wish you a birthday without the habitual mediocrities and macabre monotony of day-to-day life. Alliteration always aspires to ambitiously amaze.

And now for the jokes. You must win every thumb wrestling match. Can we see a thumbs up? Flipping the bird? Shaking hands? Vigorous clapping? Strangling an emaciated corpse? Folding your hands diabolically? A reenactment of "The Scream"? Peeling fruit?
Thorn EDIT: Received permission from topic creator to call you an asshole kthxbai~
genus EDIT: hey there Thorn. Just wanted to say hi, remove the ugly strikemarks, and point out these lines:
<genus> hey Sondow are you comfortable with people joking about your hands so long as it is in good taste
<Sondow> I'm fine
I demand reparations from the state.
Thorn EDIT: hey there genus. Just wanted to say that a collection of random quotes involving fingers does not qualify as a joke, let alone one in good taste, and again, I asked Sondow about this post before editing it. I demand you quit while you're ahead. >_>
genus EDIT: oh why hello again Thorn I see you're popping your head up again. Just wanted to say that humor is subjective and as such you can not claim that your judgement of poor taste is an absolution. I also wanted to say that it's important to have a sense of humor, however contrived, about you for even the most wrenching of incidents and a dapper wit does keep you afloat. I'm clearly not trying to be hurtful because I do this sort of thing with everyone and omitting Sondow would make me inconsistant in method. If I wanted to do something outright malicious you would all catch wind of it a mile down the river.
My list is longer.

Unrelated genus EDIT:

Sondow's original post:

Quote from: Sondow before he edited his post
oshi I'm necromancing my own topic.

I didn't really look at this for a while, and I must say

Genus:
NO-FUCKING-U

Which comes out of -left field- since this post was made a solid month and a half ago, and Sondow saw it anyways. Seriously, wtf.

Post by: General Throatstomper on November 16, 2007, 10:04:21 pm
Hey, if that's how he feels then there's no reason to hold him back. I much prefer an overt challenge of character to sniping behind my back when I'm not on...assuming one defers the other. People tell me I'm cynical for making negative base assumptions about people and their motivations in general, so I'm going to say that it does just so I have a counterexample...but in reality I know both go on since everyone's always ready to dig their least favorite user in public and private, having seen others, and myself, do this before. At least this way I know on what grounds the personal attacks are on. And it's not as though I'm offended by what he says, or this impacts me in the slightest. This isn't sarcasm, really; I'm not nearly so emotional as other people.

Anyways I would love a detailed explanation as to why [I AM A JACKASS. As previously stated I'm not going to get mad as most would. I merely challenge you to defend a point with a nominal degree of vim and vigor which seems to be absent in most discussions. Assume I am retarded and justify your assertion. Construct a lucid picture using examples. I want to see proof you can. I'm tired of seeing an elipsis in response to something someone says with no further comment. We don't all think like you, and are not seeing a fallacious statement you think you've picked up on. If you expand upon your initial knee-jerk reaction you may well convince others you are of sound mind and able to make deeper inferences. These same others who would think you're objecting to a given idea just because you don't like someone. By not saying anything, you make yourself look worse. If you actually pour out what your thinking for everyone to see, they'll recognize you as more than a shallow entity, which I assure you is the immediate perception for an unexplained view posited before due contemplation.

So go ahead.

Failing a response, as people don't like to stand behind what they say, let's turn this into a one-dimensional "point out everything wrong with genus" thread. Failing a response, I will add you to this list.

People who Don't Support what they Say*
1) Psyborg
2) ...and growing.

*Note that this list is to be a clean slate since yesterday. I decided I'll be more analytical in my judgement of people, and not just discard them as lackluster based on a few undesirable traits. Maybe someone surprises me by being complex, and entirely defies any former assessment of their person. I'm not counting on it, but maybe some of you only seem like cardboard cutouts and are actually enigmatic to the core. The interesting sorts on the site tend to strike me as interesting off the bat immediately though...I wouldn't bet on any horses I've thrown to the wind as 'wowing' me though. And it's not just because of personal bias. If I think you are boring, you are in fact boring. You can't claim beauty is in the eye of the beholder, or other superficial nonsense. Some people just don't have redeeming qualities. Some people have absolutely nothing going for them as people. You could be one of them. Learn to deal with it. Find what you do best and do nothing else for the rest of your life. You'll better serve society that way. Since right now you just look like dead weight, as everyone is seeing you out of your single element.

So go ahead.

Yes Gerbil, I know thread necromancy is a sin. I know it very well. However, the fact that this topic is two years old isn't going to stop me.

Anyway, there's something else I've had the whole time that I never bothered to mention, and in my current lack of sleepiness, I shall show you all...
This is halfway down my arm, as you can tell by my elbow being there. Yes, I did have a finger on the back of my forearm.
