edit:Meh. Existance is just a perception anyway.
Texas. Must Die.
Three Wishes
A Nebraskan, a Texan and an Okie are out walking together one day.
They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it. "I will
give you each one wish, that's three wishes total." says the Genie.
The Nebraskan says, "I am a farmer, my dad was a farmer,
and my son will also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in
Nebraska." With a blink of the Genie's eye, 'FOOM' the land in
Nebraska was forever made fertile for farming.
The Texan was amazed, so he said, "I want a wall around
Texas, so that no foreigners can come into our precious state."
Again, with a blink of the Genie's eye, 'POOF' there was a huge wall
around Texas.
The Okie asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell me more
about this wall."
The Genie explains, "Well, it's about 150 feet high, 50 feet thick and
completely surrounds the state. Nothing can get in or out."
The Okie says, "Fill it up with water." [<---Infin8Cyn]

[quote="daemon princess";p="96362"]
~ When I am with people, I'm dreadfully affectionate. It takes an awful lot of willpower to keep from resting my head on a friend's shoulder and snuggling with them. Of course, a guy would interpret that as flirting and a girl would just be uncomfortable.
[/quote]
Thats strange I would just let you and think nothing of it.... :/
I am one of those guys that don't think of everything as flirting, I would let you rest your head and snuggle. I wouldn't think anything about it or do anything..
Oh and I think I have a picture of me in my suit somewhere... I might just post it if I find it.

- I can tell the difference between "your" and "you're" in spoken conversation, and it bothers me when you interchange the two.
- If I don't know you, you have to drag every word of out me kicking and screaming. Once I'm comfortable with you, I'll never shut up.
- I get overly attached to people I meet online.
- It's not unusual for me to read 50-100 pages of a book in one sitting.
- It's impossible to get a straight answer out of me on anything. I speak only in possibilities.
- Like Jez, I have an unholy obsession with the Catholic church.
- Seive is pronounced "seef", damnit.
- It's not unusual for me to travel 2000km in a year, and a good portion of that will be on a whim.
- Jellybeans. I eat a lot of them.
- I'm wearing at least one article of blue at all times.
- I read three newspapers a day. When I have television I tend to keep CNN on.
- There is nothing more interesting than a tragedy.
- I am perhaps the only nihilistic bleeding-heart liberal on earth.
- People touch me an awful lot. I am not someone who enjoys getting touched often.
- I remember only the most inane things. Serious conversations tend to slip my mind.
- I haven't known my own phone number for two years.
- The more difficult/abrasive/quirky/odd you are, the more I like you.
- 18c in room temperature. 20c is a bit warm. 23c and I start hurting people.
- "Odd". Not strange. "Odd".
Flail in terror at my massive odd streak!

I am highly antisocial and therefore avoid all social occasions
My obsession with Linux was derived from my obsession with penguins (they're such funny animals... hamsters are also funny creatures. And chipmunks, but they're just skinny striped hamsters away)
I enjoy having hair in my eyes...
...And in conjunction with that, I frequently hide behind my hair.
I never look people in the eye when speaking. Looking people in the eyes is one of the most uncomfortable experiences available.
I *always* bounce my knee.
I am a packrat (not physically, but mentally)
With fanatical devotion I keep any and all software I can get my pale hands upon. I have a 1986 edition of Havard Graphics on 5 1/4" floppy, for example. And I still have kept my floppies for Windows 3.1.
I am an audiophile.
I crack my knuckles and neck.
I am cynical and sarcastic.
I try but often fail to refrain from insulting people incessently.
I hate people. With some exceptions.
I like to argue. In fact, last year I was so deprived of a good argument that I starting arguing with my social studies teacher in the middle of class about who won the war of 1812, despite that the topic in class was prohibition.
When I speak I am almost impossible to understand if I do not actively concentrate on what I am saying (which is another reason I dislike talking or being social). I frequently start speaking in french without realizing it, and more often then not speak with a language that is theee bastard child of english and french but uses japanese grammar.
I am obscenely pessimistic and dark.
I dress in monocromes whenever possible. Favorite among my clothing choices are anything void of color. There have been months on end when I have dressed only in the colors white, grey, and black.
I am paranoid.
I am done for now.

Re: Quirky traits.
Okay, my turn.
I rarely fidget in a way that is really obvious, but when I’m alone I’m almost always doing a tiny tiny dance in my chair or wiggling my toes to some song in my head. I have to be really tired to be sitting still.
I can go for a really, really long time without talking. In middle school I would go for an entire day without talking, and not even realize until I finished the day and thought, “Huh, I didn’t say anything today.” When I do talk, I often mumble or speak in a quiet voice without realizing it (like that Seinfield episode!). Gotten better at that one though.
I have terrible posture. Also working on that one.
While generally quiet, if someone starts talking about a game or movie I watched I can go on *forever* about it. Not about things like how good or bad it was, but things like analyzing camera shots and editing choices.
I tend to “disappear” – I’ll be standing right next to or slightly behind a person and they’ll ask someone else where I went. This happens way, way more often than it should. On the other hand, I might make a great ninja.
I never set the timer when I cook food in an oven, which is at least several times a week. I never burn food.
Recently I’ve taken to wearing my headphones but having nothing playing. Since I almost always have a song running in my head when I’m alone I probably forget I’m not actually hearing music… the bonus to this is that I hear the static of an incoming email a second before it hits my cell phone. That’s kinda cool.
I also must concur with the zoot suit and pinstripe thing.
Oddly, I have to say the exact same thing… just last week I got my hair cut to the shortest it’s ever been, and style-wise it looks pretty similar to Daemon’s.~ I also tend to hide behind my hair, except it's mostly gone now and, oddly enough, I think I've become a bit more outgoing.
Mine is too.~ The floor is my closet.
I can vouch for this one.Most everyone gets a demonstration of the power of my car in the first one or two rides, usually when they're not expecting it, and usually when they're in mid-sentence.
I do this all the time too. I also write forum responses while I’m in the shower, and only ever post about half of them.I run conversations through my head before I have them. This can result in not actually having the conversation.

Funny...I think up witty replies to posts too. And I'll draw as long as I have a horizontal surface, a piece of paper, and something that'll mark it. I even draw on test papers.
And as for the music thing...I always have a song playing. For instance...
