ok so i got the idea from the sweaty palms thread

i have poor eyesight so i wear contacts/glasses, got that from my dad. my bro wears contacts/glasses too

i also get really bad canker sores, so i gotta eat lots of vitamin c. i hear only 3% of the world has this problem, damnit! it sucks cause i can never eat ketchup when i get one cause it hurts like nuts, and any contact to it makes it kill. theyve gotten better though cause i brush really well now and when i feel one coming on i eat like 1800% of my daily vitamin c lol

anyway, whats yours?

I'm a ginger. It's tight though cuz I have green eyes but the inside by the pupil is the same color orange as my hair.

Seriously though it kinda blows being a ginger sometimes. Other times it's tight....no one ever forgets you

I'm supposed to be able to get hernias really easily- my dad, his dad and all his brothers had one.

I also have mad english/literature skills and am pretty good at drawing/art (my mom's sisters both have fine arts degrees, my paternal grandfather was an art teacher, and both my dad's brothers are artists)

To the TC. Buy some toothpaste that has no sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). My girlfriend used to get crazy canker sores all the time like you until her doctor told her to try using SLS-free toothpaste. She never gets canker sores anymore.

Nothing really special about me...

-Dark hair, dark eyes, dark skin (thanks dad!)
-Virtually impossible for me to get fat, lightning fast metabolism (Dad!)
-Natural athleticism, pretty built and fairly toned, have never really worked out. (dad)
-According to stats, I have a larger than average penis. (mom. just kidding...)
-Hairy as FUCK ass.
-And I seem to have a really good musical mind, and I don't play an instrument. Not sure how that happened.

end claim.

Its where you aren't very color blind, like for example if you are red-green colorblind, everything is still in color, but red and green are like the same one.

I'm 6'2 because my mom is Dutch and they are the tallest race on earth.

I'm also weirdly ampidextrous. I write with my left hand, but skate/snowboard regular, kick with my right foot, throw baseballs left handed but bat right handed, racquet sports I can never decide which hand to play with and switch off, and when I used to do Ju-Jitsu I fell, stood up, and moved around in a right handed stance, but then threw techniques/strikes left handed and then reverted back to left handed stance. Skiing I spin rightside, slide left foot forward, but spin leftside switch. And unnatty spins/backside grinds are barely more difficult. And my mom is the same way.

Well, my dad's side of the family is partially swedish. Most people in the family have blond hair excluding me.. Everyone has blue eyes though.

My hands shake for some reason, it's like i'm always jittery on coffee. Other than that I inherited my dad's temper (goes off at the drop of a hat), and my grandpa's hair. (It's insanely thick, when I was 14 I tried to get it cut short, but the razer got so clogged that a part of the blade broke when the guy was thinning it out.)
