mnfaure wants me to do this what-did-you-do-that-no-one-else-on-friend's-list-did meme.
The thing is...I'm boring, even with a minute friend's list, I've done nothing original.
- I married someone I met online, but others on my flist have too.
- I moved to another country - again, done by several others on my flist and to more exotic places at that.
- Part of my bottom lip was bitten off by a cockatoo, but see, that was done TO me, not BY me. It didn't require a lot of effort, not on my part, not on the bird's part either. Soft tissue and all that.
- I cycled into a lamp-post while under the influence of half a bottle of Turkish pepper sweets mixed with Absolut vodka, but I'm sure others have done worse things while drunk.
- I've stood pantless in Kerteminde fjord in October month, digging for Nereis Diversicolour. Now, I'm pretty sure no-one else have done that, but it's a rather nerdish and freezing thing to do and not particularly spectacular.
- I've touched a wild porpoise, had a 4,5 metre python wrapped around my neck and a tarantula wander up and down my arm, but there are others here that swim with wild dolphins and who actually have pet-snakes and tarantulas at home.
- I've visited H.R. Giger, but again, I know others on my flist have spoken to him as well.
- At 14, a design of mine was stolen by a clothes producer and I could see it in all the clothes shops the following season, but as I have several artist on my list, I likely not the only one having being screwed in that area.
So there, see I tried, Miq, but I might just have to be the boring pea.

I also vote for the Turkish pepper sweets and especially the Nereis Diversicolour story.
It is not so much the story that is exiting or dull, but how you tell it.
