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 liked forensic science so much that I majored in it while at uni with no intent of actully going into that profession.
When it came time to do the "pig dig" for one of my classes I ( and the rest of the class) were very dissapointed that there were only bones to dig up and not an actual body.
My dream job would be to work on a body farm or as a pathologists assistant.
I love to read Patricia Cornwell.

Some other sad obsessions/revelations
I collect comic books and love cartoons especially the ones from DC
Yes I am a twenty something girl

ok... it goes no further than this thread, but I tap my feet to TLC tracks and love singing along to "Zombie" by The Cranberries.

Ha, this is a Sleuth related confession: I created several detectives to find out, on a trial and error basis, who the murderer in the "Unread will" scripted mystery was. Then I created a new detective (the one I actually wanted to play with) and solved the mystery with zero Xp, and I got 4 skill points for that! I know I should feel guilty about that, but, hey, I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who did this.

I love to watch and sing along to musicals and Disney Movies

I agree with Lacrymosa, I absolutely love musicals and Disney movies.

I can't imagine visiting London without going to the theatre (first time was the Phantom of the Opera - combining 1 and 2).

I love nice shoes, buying and wearing, but I blame this on my xx chromosomes.

I sometimes sneak in here when I should be working.

I once ran a red light on purpose, knowing the consequences of getting caught, but it was 2 in the morning on a Thursday and I simply didn't feel like waiting.
And got away with it.

Handed in quite a number of reports morning after the deadline, counting on reaching the building earlier than the respective professor.

When asked about my friends' car's, I usually reply with: "It's green/white/black/silver etc."

I use trains and planes to sleep.

I was actually LOOKING FORWARD TO dissecting worms. The science teacher told us at the beginning of last year (7th grade) that we would be dissecting worms at the end of the year. A week or something from the last day of school, I raised my hand and asked when we would get to dissect the worms.

We never got to.

I picked up a pretty nasty mouth after watching the movie Stand By Me. It seems like every other sentence I'm saying the s word. Sometimes the f word. And I'm 13.

I will cry about just anything.

Nelson Eddy's singing gives me nightmares and sometimes his acting is just hilarious- where it's never supposed to be.

One time I fell off the swing and laughed about it. (at the time)

I wrote an incredibly humorous story about the time I had a bike crash. It wasn't so humorous at the time.

I own all 5 seasons of the Brady Bunch.

I LOVE old black and white movies. Half of the ones I am obsessed with are corny.

The website I spend the most time on is IMDB.
