OT: Odd statistics about your life.

[nomar]

car thief?

I prefer the term "car borrower."

 

[cohenzone]

Got yelled at by a guard for trying to sneak take a pic of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. But I did sneak a pic of Russian border security guards checking papers on a train at the Finland border, stupidly undeterred by visions of the a Gulag.

Back before Universal Orlando was being built in 1989, I was on a class trip. We stayed in a hotel across the street from the construction site and we decided to check it out. The Psycho house was completely built - it wasn’t finished, but you could see it was what it was.
I broke into the Psycho house. It was fun until the police came. We only got taken back to our class chaperones. But it was embarrassing...

 

[Bezzz]

I was arrested. Once. For having an unlicensed dog. Kind of a long story.

So I'm in the system now. The arresting officer at the police station couldn't believe what was happening. After fingerprinting I asked him if we're doing a mug shot. He said "F that."

 

[polycom]

Don't you know how to use the, um, polycom?

Well played. I know how to use it, my clients... not so much.

On a class trip I got permanently banned from the Phoenix Park Hotel on Capitol Hill and was almost kicked out of school for hitting a Congressman in the head with a water bottle I threw out the window.

I was an illegal alien in Guatemala for a bit. Got marched back to the belizean border with an M16 stuffed in my back

I was told I was on a list of permanently banned people for life at Universal. Last year on a work trip we had dinner inside universal (first time I went since then) and I imagined being caught and escorted out...

Stop the presses... what????

Just copied the explanation from an earlier thread...


Late summer, 1976. Or maybe it was 77.
Pain in stomach.
Appendicitis.
Appendix leaked.
Docs thought they got it in time and cleaned everything up.
Sent me home on the Friday before Labor Day.
4AM Saturday, I'm back, with a 105 degree temp.
Peritonitis.
"Wildfire" abscess filled every cavity in my torso.
And my sack. Stretched it to the size of a volley ball. Stretched skin so tight, blood vessels squeezed shut.
Gangrene ensued.
95% of sack removed. Just one little tab of undamaged tissue remained.
Several articles were written in medical journals about it.
Every night one of the two student nurses who were assigned to me would scrape puss off my nuts with gauze. It hurt ALMOST as much as a kidney stone stuck in the ureter.
One of them was particularly hot. I learned that everything down there still functioned, even with the guys hanging out in the open air.
I was on a refrigerated bed with a suction tube jammed through a gash in my side for months.
Eventually, they pushed the guys up into my abdomen and stitched that little tab of good tissue across the gap, and promised me that it would grow back.
The sent me home on the Friday after Thanksgiving.
Sack did grow back, but heavily favored the left side, where the little tab had been.
So now I have two left nuts.

When I have the time, I can tell you about the time they accidentally anesthetized my brain. That was fun, too.

 

[UconnU]

Both of my children were conceived on my birthday exactly 10 years apart.

Ive been in a coma TWICE.

 

[joober jones]

I've never had bacon bits. Not once.

 

[imno1]

Number of times I've followed a recruit in to the men's room = 0

ok twice

 

[98Uconn]

I have 5 alpacas.. just for the heck of it.

I drove in the back of a cop car once after the cops thought my friend and I were lost trying to get to a sandwich shop and 3 different people called the cops on us saying we were "junkies" who were trying to rob houses. The cops were pretty frightening--gun drawn, etc.--but afterwards tried to help us jump a fence, and then drove us to a closer location. They let us out in the parking lot of a church as CCD was getting out, though, and children fled us.

Times shot in Hartford - 0

Times shot at in Bridgeport 1

In reality, really drunk guy and was aiming for a street light, bad aim. We happened to be walking by the panama inn at the time.

 

[Mister P]

Been inside Mar a Lago once.
Been in the WH once.
Hung out with Bud Grant at his Wisconsin lake house once.

 

[CL82]

Times shot in Newark - 1.
(Well not me, but I did dig a slug out of the drivers seat of my car.)

Times removed from a closed practice by Jim Calhoun - 1
(Well actually he just whispered to Hobbs who came up and asked me to leave.)

 

[calluke]

I'd like to do mine over...

Number of '99 Championship Basketball Rings owned...1

 

[Deepster]

That's how you live?

I live a life. Not sure about you. Notice how long it took me to notice your post.

Yeah. So long! You must have have been out climbing El Cap.

I don’t see this thread having anything worse than this.

I had an epidural once.

Women who complain about childbirth are just looking for attention. You have gone full Kathy Bates Misery mode on my lower half and I wouldn’t have felt a thing.

 

[polycom]

I’ve played picked up an NBA champion.

 

[Fishy]

I could teach any toddler to make a perfect lobster roll.

That's horrifying. Glad you're still with us.

This was the most over the top part of the thread all the way through - and then was topped with the phrase "the time they accidentally anesthetized my brain."
