Random Fact Association Thread

Here is how this forum game will work. This game is like a combination of the Word Association game and the Ask The Previous Poster game. Each person must reveal random facts about themselves, specifically the random fact about themselves that is most related to the previous poster's random fact about themselves.

Example:

Person A: My grandfather survived the Hindenburg disaster

Person B: I once drove a blimp. It was fun.

Person C: I can drive every vehicle

Person D: I once helped make a car for someone

Only do one fact per post, and don't do the same fact about yourself twice.

Before he was a realtor, my dad used to own an ice cream truck.

My dad used to run a candy stall named United Sweets of America. We still have the sign. It's somewhere in my room.

One of our projects in trade school was we had to sell chocolate bars to passerbies. That alone isn't interesting, but nobody would buy them. Not a single person. None of us passed the assignment and we had to eat them all ourselves.

Not once have I participated or sold anything in a school fundraiser.

I actually enjoy contributing to fundraisers. Makes me feel like I'm helpful.

I donate $39 every 26 days, people always know the money came from me.

Sometimes I end up paying too much money at restaurants, and it's because I ordered too much food to eat.

My family and I once went to a restaurant while we were two hours away from home. It took over an hour to get any service, so we ended up getting a free meal.

We went to a locally famous restaurant that took over an hour to drive to... on a Saturday. Unfortunately, it was closed on weekends.

One of my first school detentions was one that was given to me on a Saturday. Me and a classmate saw a teacher at the grocery store and she let something slip and I then had lunch detention the next Monday. We aren't even safe out of school.

I once got yelled at by a teacher because of a graduation sweater.

They were giving out free sweaters over lunch period for the soon-to-be graduating class, and my mom texted me to ask if I had mine yet. I was still in class, and the teacher was kind of insane. He got annoyed at me for the text notification going off, but didn't let me touch my phone to reply to my mom, so she kept texting me over and over. It got to the point where he screamed at me and took my phone, and took me to the principal. The principal, who had had more than enough of that teacher's shit, took my side as soon as I explained what happened and let me go, at which point lunch was already over. I got my sweater then immediately went outside and threw it in the dirt in anger.

TL;DR, some people should maybe not be allowed to be in charge of people.

I'm the most-educated person I know, if measured by number of different schools attended.

I also went to multiple different schools.

At school I'm known for having one detention for every possible rule you can break.

In high school I tended to take a lot of things, including courses, very seriously, and this contrasted with a lot of other students who often did not take these courses as seriously.

In high school, me and most of my classmates didn't take physics seriously because we were more of chemistry and biology class.

I took Chemical Engineering in college because I thought it has the least amount of math.

It does not, in fact, has the least amount of math.

65 is the “just passing” grade in every class here, and every year, I’ve gotten a perfect 65 in math, meaning one wrong move each year and I’d have to retake it.

I once failed a subject by just 0.5 points.

I’ve never failed a subject in school.

I once had to get math removed as a subject to take in high school because I wouldn't have been able to pass it, therefore I wouldn't be able to graduate high school.

In ninth grade, I was caught skipping most of my classes except algebra and Spanish.

I was a frequent ditcher, once every two weeks on average

As far as I can remember, I have never skipped a class. Not intentionally at least.
