    - I have an extreme fear of moths (and a lesser extreme fear of butterflies, it's the fluttering).
    - I can name the year of most movies made in the last 50 years or so, even ones I haven't watched.
    - I can draw/paint photorealistic pictures.
    - I have an inferiority complex.

    I get really scared of insects especially when you zoom into their anatomy and how they are designed... I just go into fear mode :cry:

    I was once a paranormal investigator.

    I am friends with ^ her because of this. Seriously, it may have been the first message I sent to anyone on MFP and we've been friends ever since.

    I seriously was too-I still do it for fun on the side!

    erg... I've done it too. lol
    And I can't walk into a haunted location with a camera and not get spook photos.
    I think they turn out to have me take their pictures.

    I'm the shyest person ever.
    Seriously, when I meet anyone off my friends list, I will be so shy I will probably piss my pants..

    I dont' know if anything would surprise my friends here. I am pretty much an open book and an oversharer. I will tell anybody just about anything.

    I have OCD, when I get stressed about something I can be known to clean the same window for 40 minutes.... Doesn't matter where I am either, I will just help myself to their cleaning cupboard and start doing it.
    I have to say "please don't be offended if I start cleaning..." :-)

    I interviewed a woman for a job the other day who kept picking at thing s on my desk for the whole interview, and atthe end, she started to wipe it with tissues.

    OK. Here is one that most people are surprised to hear. I am a nurse, yet I don't have much compassion for people, and I fake that part of the job a lot. I usually only feel for the ones who are dying and their loved ones won't let them go because they have issues. They usually just prolong the suffering, and put their loved ones through needless pain and suffering at the end of their life. :grumble:

    I am pretty sure I have Trypophobia (not diagnosed)----which is a fear of clusters of holes, and things like the Dried Lotus Flower gives me chills. I know when you google Trypophobia, some of the images you see on google are photoshopped----but it still creeps me out.

    I think my Trypophobia stemmed from a National Geographic episode that I saw when I was a young child. It was a documentary of a toad (Surinam toad) where the eggs sink into the mothers skin (on her back) and form outer pockets and they emerge (pop out) from those pockets off the mothers back. Youtube that toad---if you feel inclined. It would be interesting if I wasn't so creeped out by it. That National Geographic episode gave me nightmares, and I still get goosebumps when I think about it. It's just super creepy gross...

    I am such a nerd that I am now on a mission to figure out which of those pictures of people are real and what the heck that disease is called.

    I have a very dark side and read any non-fiction book on serial killers. I also like movies that are a typically psychological thrillers.

    Also, I'm very much a fighter and if my inner circle is threatened I will be the 1st one on my feet to protect them no matter how big the other person is. :devil:

    At first, I thought that getting called Jackie Chan was slightly racist (this happens when I travel to the mainland). That was until, I was in a Chinese restaurant, and the waitress (older 1st Generation Chinese lady) called me Jackie Chan :laugh:

    This is the primary reason for having a headless profile pic.
