    parts of my arms and legs will go stone cold, for example my wrist to my elbow on the outside of the arm will go cold or one part of my leg. Its happened since i was a child.

    It will be stone cold to the touch, bloody painful also. Never happened though when sitting with a doctor though.

    Everytime I sit in my sisters car and get out I immediately earth and get a fair old static shock. I have taken to closing the car door by either touching it with a sleeve if in a jumper or else the glass of the window to avoid shocks. Also when I was on holidays in the US last year I kept getting them. I really don't know why put I am very prone to static shocks! You should see me handling RAM I am fairly nervous as one shock and its down the tubes for the ram sticks. I usually ground myself of a radiator pipe first.

    Birds also like to take aim on my head!

    Got hit by a train and walked away from it.

    The hit by a train part has happened to a lot of people
    The walking away part, not so much.

    Had a motorcycle with a broken "petrol is low" warning light once. Generally I'd see the gauge needle on the low side and remember to tank up. But sometimes I'd forget and head off to/back from work.

    When the bike ran out of petrol it'd splutter for about half a mile or so then the engine would cut out completely and you'd roll to a stop in a few hundred yards.

    I ran out of petrol 7 times on that bike and each of those 7 times I rolled onto a garage forecourt!

    I got a maths expert to figure out the chances of that happening (given mileages to work, garage frequency on my commute route, etc) and he reckoned chances less than 1 in a zillionth of a zillion (or some such Very Large Number)

    Not much of a maths expert if he used the term "zillion"

    Does that mean that there's a really high chance of it happening?

    Jazz music actually makes me physically ill. I'm not sure why. It's the only genre of music that makes me feel like I want to throw up. Problem is I still like some of it :(

    Anytime I take a sip of coke or any other fizzy drink, I get a huge & pretty violent hiccup that makes me almost choke if I drink a few sips in successsion. No matter how small or large the sip is. It's fierce annoying. Doesn't happen with beer.

    Walked into Rathmines post office (the one that had the knitting shop at the back) a few years ago and a robbery takes place. Only problem was it looked like they were all acting. Followed the guy out of the shop but lost him. Went back to the PO and the place was full of guards - at least 25 cops. Then had to go to the station to make a statement and suddenly realised that it wasn't a robbery but some kind of set up/training exercise/movie set experience. Had to play along with the whole thing as if it was real. This definitely has never happened to anyone else :p

    Brown bread gives me the hiccups!

    +1 on the sneeze due to chewing gum

    If I fall asleep on my bed with all my clothes on, I'll either wake up naked and covered with random stuff or I'll wake up fully clothed in the exact same position as I fell asleep, even if that means on my back resting my head on my arm, meaning usually in that case my whole body (but mostly my joints) are pretty damn sore, or even have an entire arm numb to the point you don't feel a thing with it anymore.

    Also, if I sleep normally and wake up after like 8 hours, often enough I'll fall asleep again and sleep 6+ more hours.

    Thinking of pumpkins makes me wanna puke.

    i keep seeing the number 420.
    Same with me and the number 187. I concluded that you really notice what you want to see, because such a large number is in itself quite unlikely.

    Ok this is gonna sound really weird and prob disgusting but sometimes (very rarely!) when I yawn a tiny little bit of saliva will squirt out like a jet!!!! Does this happen to anyone else?..........anyone?.........no?........
    Oh it'd happen to me all the time when I was younger, and not just when yawning actually, just at random times when I'd open my mouth.

    Yeah, stop wearing wool or whatever that make static electricity (when you feel/hear it when you pull your head through the thing). That'd happen all the time to me as a kid, cause of my clothes too.
