Thread: What makes you unique?

yeah, that one's a keeper - i wouldn't try shaving it either....

Ways I’m unique:



I’ve been shot 3 times so far. First time was when I was in 2nd grade in the Bronx, a bullet came through the window from the abandoned warehouse next door. It went through my left calf, just missing the bones and nicking one proper artery. The school district bought the warehouse and tore it down the next year, to stop the gang related gunshots being fired that close to the school.


Second time I was still living in the Bronx, but was upstate camping with a Boyscout troop. I was gathering firewood, when a hunter shot me in the left side. The bullet again missed the vital stuff, but I lost a ton of blood by the time the ambulance finally arrived. Thankfully, we were using the buddy system, and everyone knew first aid and was able to remain mostly calm. I passed out before help arrived, but was able to make a full recovery.


Third time I was living in New Rochelle, New York (12 miles out of the Bronx, not really far enough out to count for anything. I was shopping at a corner store when it was robbed. I was standing near the checkout when this crazed looking black guy walked in and pulled out a gun. He fired 2 shots into the ceiling, and must have been nervous because he fired a third without looking as we brought his arm down. That shot entered my right shoulder, just to the left and below the joint. For the third time in my life, I stood there like an idiot, so @^*%ing surprised about what had happened. I as 15 at the time. My shoulder doesn’t have quite as much strength as it should, and the shoulder blade sometimes seems to catch a little on the ligaments when I rotate my arm around.

Other ways I’m unique: I’ve done design and maintenance for 3 adult sites, used to be terrified of dogs and now love them, and I live with 2 women, both of whom I’m romantically involved with. It’s a slightly strange situation, but only to those who are not in it. I have a crazy high metabolism, which causes me to eat about 5000 calories a day. I’m 5’11” and weight 131 lbs, with 4% body fat as a result.

Dude shot 3 times???? Time to move to Florida like every other New Yorker! Wow. I got shot at once but actually shot 3 times?

Yes, 3 times so far. I figure at this rate, I'll be dead by 30....
