Sleuth Home - Message Boards - The Gumshoe Lounge

Sooo...the mighty gumshoe board feels a bit slow today. *Bob the Builder voice* Can we fix it? Yes we can!

Got a skeleton pounding on your closet? A secret in the attic? A monkey (no, not precious Bobo...and not the raging back hair you try to pass off as a Bonobo backpack either) on your back?

Let it all out, boo.

K, I'll start with a few (true) examples.

When I was 16, I robbed the house belonging to to heir of a pickle dynasty.

I used to steal Volkswagen signs to be more like one of the Beastie Boys.

I have bought more than one kind of deodorant in the same day, on the advice of a friend.

I salivate a little whenever I walk by a hot dog vendor.

I totally car-megeddoned a pigeon last month.

Sometimes, I find Bob Sagat funny.

I'm Canadian and I really don't care about hockey.

Plus, I covet my neighbor's ox every day.

Speak!!!

I married the guy who asked me out at the drive thru speaker at Taco Bell when I worked there.

I like the Backstreet Boys

I detest certain family members.

I actually like watching America's Funniest Video Re-runs with Bob Saget

I've peed in the woods.

LOL to all of these, and Mama thats probably the best how I met my hubby story ever!

Crunch this ones for you: I was in drama in junior high, and sucked so bad I was in the "chorus" section of everything. We once redid a modern day retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and the Baby Bear got the chicken pox, so I got my big debut :) (yes I was awful, yes I tripped once going out on stage, and yes, there is an incriminating video floating around somewhere)

I once split the crotch of my jeans hopping onto a stage while someone was singing karaoke. Didn't clear the lip of the stage, slammed hard on my knee, skipped the CD, and generally looked like a boob in the process.

Yes folks, the rock star life is harder than it looks.

It's very funny when friends fall down :) I know this because I once found the presence of mind to twist in midair and grab the nearby diving board, resulting in a very long 8 seconds of awkward bouncing up and down, after fase starting in a high school swim meet.

Yeah...judging by the laughter, I had a lot of friends in the audience that time...as if the powder-blue speedo wasn't humiliating enough!

LMAO.... this thread is great... good to know that there are people out here as wierd as me...

Nov-27-2006 18:56

lol to Maria South 'I' cried at the end of 'Pay it Forward'!

Mind you, come to think of it, all of Haley Joel Osmonds performances have brought me to tears...

Nov-27-2006 19:12

I cry like a baby everytime I watch "A Walk to Remember"....damn you Mandy Moore!

At least you don't cry all the way through Armegedon (sp). Every time i see that movie I start to cry and don't stop until the credits run.

Hey Wynnie you're not the only one. I cry all the way through that movie as well :)
