Further to Gale's peculiar "caul" question, do any of you have amusing deformities/unusual physical characteristics, or special physiological talents?

For instance, my knees hyper-extend. It looks silly.

Actually, that's not a very good one. I'm looking for six fingers on each hand, three testicles, no skeleton, that kind of thing.

Hmm, no I'm perfect in every way.

I messed around once with two guys (on seperate occasions) that only had one testicle. One of the guys had a fake one to replace it, I guess for cosmetic and/or psychological reasons.

I have no unusual attributes myself but am curious about harelips/cleft palates. I'm reading a book now where a character had one and I just wonder if anyone grows up with them anymore. I imagine most are fixed at birth, right?

Unusually big feet for my height. Also, I have one of those little toes that doesn't have a fully formed nail, but one of those little crusty mounds of nail-stuff instead. Other than that, normal.

I want a cleft, dammit!

I can stick my big toe in my mouth. I don't do it very often. It's a neat weapon to use if I'm having an interview for a job I don't particularly want.

I'm double jointed. I can also bend the thumb on my left hand to a 90% angle so that it is stuck behind knuckles. Ermmm, yay.

james, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I am, unusually ugly for my height!

i have extra long toes, like a monkeys. this is useful in that i can do things (write, eat, play joystick based arcade games) with them.

see my 6th sense post.

Geoff, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

long thing feet with long jess style toes. lasttime I bought shoes I had my feet measured and I didn't even make the width scale.

Ed, Tuesday, 6 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I can do the right angle thumb thing too. My fourth toe is over long. I am 99% seawater. The remaining 1% is algae. I have a triple ankle.

and this is the girl who claimed not so very long ago that she was boring!

katie, Tuesday, 6 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I cant think of any special gifts I have, but I was told that if I shaved my face I might actually start growing a beard at whcih point I would hire myself out to a freak show and frighten little children
