The garden sounds really lovely, it makes me wish I had the ability to not kill plant I touch.

Oh, you have that superpower too?   Cheesy

Indeed! And not only that, I also break or thoroughly muddle computers by sheer proximity. It is a terrible responsibility.

my mother has a symilar quality in that even though we both have the same type of cell phone hers holds its charge for just 1 day at most while mine holdes its for 4 or 5...this may not sound strange but if i let her use my phone with a full battery, even if she uses it only for a minute of two, when i get it back the battery is half gone...we say she has negative ions (and if thats not the corect idea, to bad, i like it)

If it's any help, at the garden-center I worked at we had a saying "you're not an expert on orchids until you've killed at least 30."

A friend of mine qualified as vicar last year and 2 new numbers mysteriously appeared in her mobile's contacts list, one under "God" the other under "Satan".
She blamed her teenaged children

A suburb, Coatbridge; I was helping install part of the Summerlee Ironworks museum.

I silenced a Glasgow bar by suddenly announcing that I had God's telephone number...

Can't tell you much else, I'd slipped from 'Lubricated' to 'Inebriated', and had to rely on eyewitness accounts...

If you believe in that sort of thing.

It still cracks me up when I see the nicknames of people I'd rather not see anymore. I had a very good time with a girl going by the web monicker "PennyDreadful", about a year ago. As anyone with an eye for the member list might know, there are THREE people with a very similar nickname on this forum. I half expect that one of them suddenly starts to go into a fit of tourette-like logorrhea without actually suffering from it, like said girl did in the end.

"This orbital has no node!"

"How does it smell?"

"Orthogonal!"

Proof that I am hinged sideways with a screw. I find this "joke" rather amusing.

My sister and I make fun of rap songs by reciting them as though they were fine poetry, most often the song "Low." Occasionally we use British accents. The whole practice amuses us to no end, and we've gotten no shortage of sidelong looks when we start up in a public place.  Cheesy

My friend and I started dancing and singing the victory music from Final Fantasy yesterday. It was totally improvised.

Later on we did it again on the escalators in T.K Maxx, both up and down, and on the escalator in Marks and Spencers.

I ask myself that constantly. However I've no complaints, the lady I'm with currently is a good solid person...despite being even crazier than I am. Helps rather immensely that she's smart.
