OK, so what is more important, an even number of chopping up movements, or an even number of cucumber-slices? OR will you go for crescents, just to make both even?

Mmmm. I wish for an even number of slices of something/food mostly.. and sometimes I don't pay attention much or give a hoolah about it though. Say chopping up a leek in rings. Well, surely I don't freak out when the even-urge is not possible.

Well I was better before but the reattachment surgery went well so I still can but without as much flare :P

I learned to juggle clubs in high school and once you master that most things that are balanced are fairly easy .  I can walk on stilts too :green:

I can walk on stilts, I can balance with a broomstick on my hand, can make it hop from my right to my left hand. But, I can't juggle. It's on my "things I want to be able to do" wish list. I practised the other week again.

Stilts are far easier.

I can't walk in heels either.

But, I can do the toe-walk  :autism:

I grew up 11-18 in Sarasota Florida also known as Circus City winter home to Ringling Brother's  circus so the stilts and the juggling was kinda normal

I cant walk on stilts.

But then again I have no need or desire to be any taller than I am . Which is about 4 feet tall when I am sitting down.

I smell like deet right now.  (But I'm too lazy to shower before bed)
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

What is deet?

I can't juggle, walk on stilts or high heels.
I don't get it, we are discouraged from toe-walking when younger and then encouraged to walk like that when adults (in high heels).

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) consists of two separate non-profit organizations: the ACLU Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization which focuses on litigation and communication efforts, and the American Civil Liberties Union, a 501(c)(4) organization which focuses on legislative lobbying. The ACLU's stated mission is "to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties guaranteed to every person in this country by the Constitution and laws of the United States." It works through litigation, legislation, and community education. Founded in 1920 by Crystal Eastman, Roger Baldwin and Walter Nelles, the ACLU was the successor organization to the earlier National Civil Liberties Bureau founded during World War I. The ACLU reported over 500,000 members in 2010.


N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide, abbreviated DEET, is a slightly yellow oil.  It is the most common active ingredient in insect repellents.  It is intended to be applied to the skin or to clothing, and is primarily used to repel mosquitoes.

^I really should have looked these things up myself. Sometimes I prefer the person to reply with their own interpretation though.

Thank you :)
