When I was a kid, my 3½ year older sister used to sit on me and tickle me to the point where I'd nearly wet myself. :D

You know what I'm doing?! I'm writing my memoirs, little by little, in installments on Random.

One day, I'll search for all I've written on Random and compile a book out of them.

I'm an open book. I have nothing to hide.

One of the times I was in hospital for depression (and we used to attend group sessions (YUCK)), and once, a young man told me I was too honest and that I shouldn't be so open so fast. He said it'll bring me unstuck one day. I'm 48 now and so far, it hasn't.

Active but odd. That's me!

You're not wrong Earthling (and thank you). Took me a long time to get over him and forgive him.

I just thought of that:

I've never punched or hit ANYONE in my ENTIRE life - and I'm a 48 year old male!


Hm. I can't even try to claim that, had a brother growing up. I recently let someone punch me, right in the gut. A very controlled punch though and I was ready for it, wasn't going to die like a b***h like Hoodini :P. I had bad case of hiccups and was feeling a bit adventurous. It actually worked.


That's right. Houdini wasn't ready for it and it killed him.

Wanna know a less painful cure for hiccups?

I was taught this by a teacher in primary school and done it all my life. It works.

Get a glass of water. Exhale and whilst holding your breath, take 10 small sips of water. BUT YOU'VE GOT TO HOLD YOUR BREATH whilst you sip.

After the 10 sips, make sure you start breathing again otherwise, you'll cure everything :D

It's worked for me since I was a kid.

I can't even imagine.



For some reason all of my co-workers were really excited about it and kept darting off to take another selfie in a different room (they're all twice my age) 8O. I've always wondered how people don't feel too embarrassed to do this in public, because I feel awkward just watching it.

Okay now I actually can't imagine :lol:, I'd never have thought people in their 40's/50's would be prone to selfie fever.

And to think that the word "selfie" didn't even exist before 2010!

I've never seen anyone older than their 20's taking selfies actually. For them it's usually family photo fever. Sweeping generalizations! :mrgreen:
