i once told my brother's gf that he cheated on her. btw, he really did, i didn't make it up. they broke up over it. we didn't talk to each other for a year over that.

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.
Okay here is another obscure trivial fact from my past while playing football in high school.
I once blew my girlfriend, a cheerleader, a kiss as I passed her on the sideline while scoring a long 95 yard touchdown.
I received the kick-off on the 5 yard line and found an opening between my team's blockers on the left side of the field and sprinted as fast as I could go down the left side just a couple of yards in bounds, as I streaked past our cheerleaders I could see my girlfriend on my left so I turned my head and gestured a blowing kiss at her as I ran by her.
All the girls in school loved me for that. I was like the most popular guy that next week. However, my head coach wasn't too fond of me doing that. He thought I had been a show off (and I was often guilty of that.) So despite the fact that I had scored 2 touchdowns, caught 6 passes and was second on the team in tackles that game, after the next Monday's practice I had to stay late and run wind sprints, lots and lots of wind sprints, until I vomited.
If I had the chance to relive that moment I wouldn't change anything. It was worth every wind sprint! haha

At one time or another, I have played in marching bands delivering honors to President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon, President-elect Kennedy, President Johnson, Queen Elizabeth II of England, French President Charles DeGaulle, The King of Sweden (I forget his name), and the Queen of Norway (whose name escapes me also). I was one of the many sailors lining the parade route for President Kennedy's funeral. I have also played (many times) for Blaze Starr's Exotic Dance routines.

I currently have braces, this is my second time as I was a naughty girl for losing my retainer at 19. I really hate getting food stuck.
I was almost arrested at 18 for skinny-dipping in the pool of an apartment building near my house. I had been walking home from a friend's house when a girl (also 18) and her mom (mid 30's) drove by. They stopped and asked me if I wanted to go skinny-dipping with them. Of course I said yes. I was just about to get lucky with the mom, when the apartment manager came out with a shotgun in his hands and told us that the cops would be there in a few minutes. And yes - it would have been worth it. Mom was a fucking hottie...
For a period of time, I could orgasm if I was on my knees. It was weird.

None of my cars have been made in the 90s or 00s. I love my 89 car, it's so retro and I love it's cassette player. Plus I can get cheap parts for it if (let's pray it doesn't) break down.

I got my wisdom teeth pulled when I was 17.
When I was born.... with a copious amount of dark hair, I had a patch of white hair at the top of my head. As an adult, I had a long white streak down one side, a la Lilly Munster.....No, I didn't look like my Av
every now and then i have to post here to remind you that there are no unimportant or trivial facts from your past... they may be obscure but every event and every small relationship makes you who you are....
that is important.....
I once won a surfing contest and they gave me a cheap plastic trophy. So my brother and I made a hood ornament out of it on this awful beat up Ford Focus we had. Someone stole it. The trophy, not the Focus, unfortunately.
