Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

It was just kind of cool and seemingly Antiquated Linguistics, that's all.

I'm very much one of those "don't talk to strangers, or for that manner any people unless they seem friendly or they talk to me first" people.

I talk to strangers. After a while they want to leave me alone. That's just how I interact, I guess.

I talk first to strangers...

My friend says I harass (how is it spelt?) tourists...

I don't talk to strangers. People on the street are either going somewhere in a hurry, trying to sell you something, trying to get your signature for a ballot measure or a petition, panhandling, or they're relaxing in which case it's rude to talk to them anyway.

Yeah, my approach makes it a little difficult to make friends I suppose. It's not that I don't want to, I just get nervous around people I don't know. There are no strangers in my town, though, and I'll say hi to them. It's actually the people that I am interested in knowing that I don't talk to because I don't want them to think I'm stupid before really getting to know me. I'm really dumb like that.

 Tourists,though

I talked to a stranger once, along with my brother, while on the train home from school once. It was mostly him talking about himself, with him detailing marital relations and his job and the commute. It was perhaps the longest RL conversation I've ever had. And I can't remember most of it, and I'm a bit saddened by that.

Let me just say that I can not see myself alive at 30 because I have some medical problems that may be the end of me.
I hear you. I've been told my family has a history of heart disease so damn often I'm afraid my heart's going to explode in two years.

Let me just say that I can not see myself alive at 30 because I have some medical problems that may be the end of me. I admit to not knowing if they are fatal or not, but two of them are usually symptoms of something very bad. I am insured, so I could go to a doctor for them, but I do not want too(Fear, I guess).

I think you should go. I can understand the fear. But really, dying would be the easier option. Living is what's scary. If you can face each day with hope (and I know you've said you want to live as long as you can) I would think that would make the decision to go to the doctor easier. I for one couldn't stand no knowing.

I would be there to hold your hand if I could.

I think what Freezair said is true.

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.

I hate the belief that introverts are more intelligent than extroverts. For every quiet, socially awkward genius and shallow, airheaded socialite, there's an ignorant, shortighted recluse and an engaging, precocious... extrovert.

Which would make sense if introversion were a flaw. I wish I were an introvert. I crave human contact and get depressed if I don't get out often enough. Also, I'd be mysterious.

Even my doctor said he felt nerve-wracked when he goes to his doctor for checkups.

Confession: You all know I enjoy mpreg. I don't really care for the expansion aspect of it, though. Guys with overly swollen stomachs (anyone who looks pregnant, really, you too ladies) creep me out. I'm in it for the Body Horror. I feel like a hypocrite.

Oddly, I think there's something vaguely pleasant about the sight of a pregnant woman, even though I have no desire to, uh, bring about this situation myself.

I always wish I kept a bookmark folder for the news features my work is in on deviantART, but for some reason I never do.

I kinda wish ritual creepypasta like the Gideon's Keys were true. Not necessarily to engage in them, but having them there would give me a faint sense of both trepidation and adventure.

Actually, I'll go one better. If I could live in The Dreaming after I died, that'd be pretty peachy keen.
