Cloned Christ on a HoverDonkey

22:21 / 19.09.06

Drinking a tumbler-full of warm, spiced hare's blood.

Kinda glad I did it (the other two participants bottled out), but DEFINITELY won't repeat the incident.

Jack Fear

Obtained a sexual partner. Reader, I married her.

Princess

22:37 / 19.09.06

Drank vodka whilst getting shroomed. Never to be repeated.

phew, jack, you've restored the moral tone of barbelith once again...

i hit a hole in one at golf once. the contours of the elevated green means i didn't actually see the ball roll into the cup, but in it duly went!

and i dearly hope the one feeble attempt at my own life was a one-off. not a happy moment and not to be repeated.

and i only saw stevie ray vaughan play live once. but he was scintillating!

Shared a police cell with priests.

Run myself over. (It can be done, one simply has to drive a quad at speed but in lowish gear into a tire wall, be flung forward while the quad is bounced backwards, and wait for it to roll over oneself 'cause the damned thing is still running. Easy!)

Fired a shotgun one-handed at arms length, a la Terminator. Oh so male is me.

Gotten engaged to someone I didn't fancy just for the hell of it. Honest.

Shame one of them wasn't a nun.

Randy: I told you. It's because I'm a man, but I'm dressed like a woman.

Shared a police cell with priests.

wtf?!

We'd been arrested at a demonstration, and we ended up five to a cell. Right hooligans, they were.

Alex's Grandma

11:28 / 20.09.06

I'm never going to try and make friends with a panda again - all right, their habitat's in trouble, issues in China and so forth. But that's not really my problem. So I did try to feed the thing some bamboo, in a gentle, mellow, chilled-out way, and the aggressive little monster nearly took my arm off.

I'd rather paint a dog, to be honest.

Never again.

Had sex on a hill in December. Nu-uh.

petunia

12:04 / 20.09.06

Had sex with a hill in June Uh-Huh!

Persephone

13:20 / 20.09.06

Once when I was sick I choked on a cough drop & I was alone in bed, I had to give myself the Heimlich manuever.

ghadis

13:38 / 20.09.06

Fallen asleep in a tree when drunk. Can't remember how or why i got up there but i guess it could have ended painfully. Luckily i was rescued by friends with ladders when they found me the next morning.

William Sack

13:52 / 20.09.06

Tattooed a piglet.

Had sex with Jack Fear while he was sleeping.

Uh-oh.

Jub

15:20 / 20.09.06

Had sex with a hedgehog and borked the little chap for ever.

Not really. I haven't met an animal pretty enough for me yet.

Triplets

18:51 / 20.09.06

Prick pricks prick with pricks?

Yep, P wins.

My Mom Thinks I'm Cool

19:14 / 20.09.06

while demonstrating in a self-defense class how hard it was to get out of my bear hug, I woke up on the floor, having apparently squeezed that little guy so hard *I* passed out.

\m/

Hmm...things I've done only once...nothing too exciting:

Acid

Re-Broken someone's arm (I was 10 - we were playing football, the ball bounced off my knee onto the kids arm, he'd only been out of a cast like a day)

Gone to Amsterdam on my own (met some French people there)

Ninjas make great pets

12:15 / 21.09.06

round house kicking a girl in the stomach (pure instinct self defense) - will hopefully never EVER be in that situation again.. for the record. she went for me first, ran at me from behind tried to take me down across the back of the knees. It really happened so fast. Crazy strangers. at least maybe it'll mean she'll not go for someone else so quick.

anyway

In college staying in a mates. No cups, no plates, no food, no kettle, no time to get to class. I grabbed the only thing on the shelf. A very old looking coffee jar. No spoons even. Put coffee and sugar and milk in my mouth and swirled. Seemed like a good idea at the time. YUCK.

Balanced a checkbook.

Kali, Queen of Kitteh

13:17 / 21.09.06

Man, I have NEVER done that.

Whisky Priestess

13:23 / 21.09.06

While pulling an all-nighter, ate a Pot Noodle (which had lost its sauce) mixed with peanut butter, in the mistaken belief that it would be a bit like satay.

How wrong I was.

Go skiing - not only did I have to wear a bright red snow suit, that belonged to my then partner's mum and which felt humiliating enough for someone who only wore black at the time. But I also fell out of the ski lift, which then had to be stopped until I somehow managed to get up - not easy with skier on your feet. (My face was probably as bright as the suit.)

Oh, and taking Ketamine. Very nasty.

All Acting Regiment

At least you didn't microwave it.

Kali, Queen of Kitteh

13:58 / 21.09.06

Oooh, I've got one.

Fifteen years old, me and a girlfriend took muscle relaxers, cheap speed, and smoked pot.

Oh. My. God.

Imagine being sleepy and yet alert and not getting high from any of three things combined. During my "recovery," I listened to nothing but the Cure's "Disintegration." It still gives me the shudders.

If balancing a chequebook has anything to do with adding up I certainly haven't ever done that.

Once two nuns looked after me on a train and gave me a St Christopher. (I was only seven and my sister and I travelled from London to Cornwall on our own under the care of the guard. It wouldn't happen now, oh no.)

Once I was followed through a park by a Scary Man and was rescued by a prostitute.

Once I rode in a hot air balloon over the west coast of Mexico, at dawn. It was piloted by a crazy american dude, and he grabbed Iguanas from the tops of trees and put them down in new ones.

Once I saw a swimming pool of water turn into sand and I sifted it through my fingers. I was on acid.

Once I saw a real live tiger. Ahem.

Jack Fear

19:12 / 21.09.06

Man, that one just never gets old, does it? L, as they say, O L.

Olulabelle

19:36 / 21.09.06

Ahhh, but I have the bonus of the fact that I truly wasn't joking. I actually did and it was actually close to me. That's why the 'ahem'.

Poor confused Iguanas!

Dead Megatron

Were there metal bars between you and said real live tiger???

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I lost my virginity only once.

20:13 / 21.09.06

Went skull-to-skull at a full run with a 260-lb, legally blind Pole while playing some game involving a ball, a field, and a goal. I can't remember exactly what the game was; some variant of rugby that we'd made up on the spot.

I believe I may have actually stayed concious. Never been hit that hard before or since, though.
