Quote from: Halichoeres on September 02, 2022, 05:16:03 PMYeah, but only because I've spoken Spanish in places where Portuguese or French are more common, so it's not quite as coincidental.

Have you ever a snack food (Cheetos, candy, etc.) by tipping the bag into your mouth, so as not to get your fingers grimy?
Still coincidental,, but not as coincidental as one will expect

My brother does that with his chips.

Have you ever whipped someone with a jump rope(I swear it was unintentional)


Halichoeres

I don't think so, but when I was young I got up to all sorts of mischief, accidental and otherwise, that I don't really remember.

Have you ever gotten a fortune cookie fortune that really attacked you?

I kind of wish I had, all of mine are super cheesy. I'd rather have a fortune cookie that says something like "invasion starts at 600-run" than "good luck is coming your way"

Have you ever seen a teacher accidentally talk about their divorce during class(it was a zoom meeting hence it was easier for her to lose her guard, she was unmuted)

Halichoeres

Yeah, although long ago and in an in-person class.

Have you ever trapped a wasp in your house and put it outside?

Yes,  and even some hornets.

Have you ever worn a dinosaur costume?

Stegotyranno420

Yes when I was five on my first Halloween


Have you ever did a pull up with just your index fingers supporting you?

Newt

Yes, but not lately.  :-[

Have you ever snorkeled in a stream?

Stegotyranno420

Nope.

Have you ever broken a fence by accident

Halichoeres

Yes, definitely. Probably also on purpose.

Have you ever drawn/painted a mural?

Yes.

Have you ever lost your taste for a food you used to enjoy?

Stegotyranno420

Yes, unfortunately. What makes it worse that it is usually healthy foods.

Has the reverse ever happened to you?

Halichoeres

Yes, when I was young I hated mustard, mushrooms, Brussels sprouts, etc. Of course Brussels sprouts taste better than they used to.

Have you ever ridden a bicycle on a highway?

No mustard, eh? Just don't try to put ketchup on a hot dog in Chicago.

I have ridden a bicycle on a highway. About 15 years ago when they had paved the new highway going through my hometown but not yet opened it my dad and I biked it. Now there's cars going 70 on it.

Have you ever seen phosphorescent organisms in person?

Cars, like ketchup, ruin everything.

I think that technically scorpions are phosphorescent, so yes. Fun to hunt with blacklights in the desert night.

Have you ever correctly identified a blind bag item by touch while it was still in its package?

Not a blind bag as in a toy, but a similar situation did occur.

Have you ever introduced two friends to eachothrr only for them to hit it off and become closer to eachother than to you

Sort of, but the other way around. Friend introduced me to another friend and we became closer than I was with the friend that introduced me to em.

Have you ever lost a figure outside that was valuable? (can be valuable personally or money-wise)
An oversized house cat.

Stegotyranno420

No, all I lost were cheaposaurs, but 4 year old me still felt such pain in the separation. 


Have you ever blew a chance at getting a great figure because you were unable to appreciate scientific accuracy at the time(I still can't believe I chose the schleich Giga over Carnegies

CityRaptor

#1637
No. ( And seriously the Schleich one? How can anyone chose that over literally any Giga on the market? Even when not taking scientific accuracy into effect, that thing is so ugly!)

Have you ever brought something just because it was exclusive?
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Lynx

#1638
Yes, a carnegie giga. Already had a giga, and preferred it, but stuff like that is sometimes hard to come by, so I bought it even though I am not a huge fan of it.

Have you ever gotten the wrong figure after ordering something, but it ended up being better than what you would have gotten?

Edit: not sure if the giga counts as exclusive, but there's limited stock of it so..

#1639
No, but that'll be cool
As for the giga, there will be better options in the future, and while nostalgic and charming I'm not gonna pay 90 bucks for it  ;) but thanks tho.
avatar_CityRaptor @CityRaptor what do you expect from a first grader honestly. Also carengiet was a bit more expensive so that's why

Have you ever biked in 100 + degrees (F)
