    People kept saying I was too young to have DVT. While I was laying in a hospital bed with a giant blood clot in my leg. Illnesses don't care how old you are.

    The brokest thing I’ve ever done was when I was living with my now-ex. I had to steal the individual packs of ramen noodles so we had SOMETHING to eat.
    It was the first time I stole something. I cried myself to sleep that night.

    17:08 I know someone who slipped on a banana peel. They were setting up a mock crime scene for a photo project with a banana peel and a tape outline, joked about how it was so unrealistic, and then actually slipped on it. You could see the skid marks in the photo and they had a person helping them with the project so they actually had proof for the story.

    Brokest thing I ever had to do is my mom and I had to get food boxes from a local church because we didn't have enough to go buy food. Better than being hungry.
    Joke I like I actually got from the book House of Leaves: a man was on vacation in Spain and went to a local restaurant and ordered the special. He was brought two huge, meaty balls. "What are these?" he asked the waiter.
    "Cojones."
    "What is that?"
    "They are the testicles of the bull that lost the fight."
    The man ate his meal and thought they were absolutely delicious. A few days later, he came back and ordered the same thing, except the balls this time looked much small and strange. "What are these?" he asked the waiter.
    "Cojones."
    "No, I came here a few days ago and they looked nothing like this!"
    "The bull doesn't always lose."

    21:18 Oh god, I have a go-to for this one; The Legos.
    It's a climbing course, where you have to take legos with you to repair the handholds that are made of legos, you are completely naked, and a Lego Shredder thing is beneath you, 3 feet below the lowest point on the course. Imagine a lazy river of legos, but they pass through a grate at the back end so if you hold still you get slowly shredded.
    The air that is cycled in smells of rotting eggs, and is filled with a light mist of Mosquito Itchy Juice.
    EVERY. SINGLE. PRICK. is a mosquito bite. There is no sleep. If you pass out from wounds or exhaustion, you are resuscitated, treated, and put back.

    15:27 For reference, before I begin; I have nevr once consumed any chemical stronger than caffeine; no alchohol, no weed, no crack, no halucinogens, nothing of the sort in any way shape or form. My family does not have any hiatory of hallucinations, and at the time of the sighting, I was fully rested, completely sober(of course) and fully conscious.
    on a cool early-summer afternoon in 2015, there was barely a cloud in the sky, and I was waiting for my ride under a tree in a parking lot. I was watching the moon because it was visible at the time, and because I've always had interest in it, and out of the corner of my eye, i see an unusally bright glint, like if the sun hits your eye in your rearview mirror. I look around, nothing could have caused it, no cars, no planes, nothing, until I spot in the sky a tiny, distant metallic speck, glinting in the sun like a piece of polished metal. It got larger/closer over the next 10-15 seconds, until I could see it was a cylindrical object. It got closer, almost to the point I could make out detail on its surface, and I noticed it was moving towards where the moon was in the sky. The next part, I memorized as well as I could, and I am 100% certain that my memory of the events is accurate. As it approached the moon, it visbly slowed down, and then it seemed to pass in front of the moon. Next, it seemed to curve around the moon, and passed _behind_ the moon, not showing up again on the other side, and thus proving that it was an actual metallic object out in space by the moon, that went across the sky then curved around the moon in under a minute.
    I did the math, and for an object to be seen as large as it was when it passed behind the moon, it would have had to be the length of tennesse, the STATE. No _city_ on earth is that large, much less single structure, much less vehicle, much less space-vehicle. For this thing to have been man-made, it would have to be part of a more advanced nation of people than our entire global society combined, to make something THAT large in space; which I sincerely doubt would be able to hide from earth's nations.
    No asteroid SLOWS DOWN when approaching a gravity well, this was no comet as it had no tail, and if it WERE an asteroid, it would have been all over the news; I know because an asteroid nowhere near that big passed between earth and the moon and it WAS all over the news and we got more than one doomsday prophecy out of it. So an object the size of TENNESSEE?! No way that would have been missed by the news, had it been a meteor.
    This leaves the most logical explanation to be axtraterrestrial sentient life.
    I know this story is unbelievable for many people, but I know what I god damn saw with my naked eyes.

    My weirdest flex is my likelihood to lose in a fistfight... if you lose against me in a fistfight, you either lost on purpose or have a severe physical disability. Another is my library of flaws/rarities (rarities such as being left-handed or having a mole under my eye).

      @@whipped_cream5101, I like to brag about my ability to lose because it helps 'alpha' males become overly confident and I consider that cute (like 'how helpless' cute, not 'aww' cute).
      My mole being a fun flex/bragging right is because why not? It's an imperfection, and as one's trash is treasure, imperfections pique my interest.
      They're not stuff to flex alone, they're only fun to flex as a multitude of flaws granted that those percentages become indefinitely smaller the more you add.
      I find flexing my imperfections to be kinder than flexing my talents... not that I have any noteworthy ones.

    Honestly this thing about dentists and people hating them? Probably stems back to _not having a good dentist._ I have had experience with a shitty dentist in a public hospital (this is in Australia btw), and a good dentist closer to home. Good dentist is very calm, warns me when the anaesthetic needle is going in, and one time when he was taking out two broken teeth on the same side of my mouth, but on upper and lower jaws, and he went for the one he wanted to get out first but the anaesthetic hadn't quite set in yet, when I alerted him to the fact I could still feel what he was doing, he immediately switched to the other tooth without argument. I've been to him several times and he is very good at his job.
    I am also blind, though, so I can't see the implements coming towards my face. Maybe that's part of it too?
