In high school my band's song was played on the radio.

I was on the 9 o'clock props....which is a rap battle thing 93.3 in New orleans used to do.  I was like 14 and I dusted some older dude....I was the man in the school for like a week.  I made copies sold the tape.

Technically, I had a recording career.

My band played our talent show that year, and we sold a few demo CDs. I was really proud of it back then, but years later going back to it with a critical ear the guitars on the demo are not at all lock-step (me and the other guitarist trying to play in tandem).

I'm totally boring and mostly don't get attention, but when I'm someplace for a decent length of time, anything shady or outside the rules I do turns into a trend. Then everyone except for me gets in trouble and new restrictions are put into place to ban anyone from doing that thing in the future. It's why I warn people about copying me.

When I was a child, I always refused to go sit on santa's lap at the mall even tho my siblings would do it, so I just never did that. And as an adult, I've never had sex w/a guy in a santa costume (believe it or not) so I still have never sat on santa's lap ever not once

Why do I get the feeling you're in porn?

I could name all the US state capitals by memory in 5th grade.

I won a local Blockbuster World Video Game Championship in 1995.  I've been told it was for the entire state of Tennessee but I believe it was just for the store.  Regardless I got an entire year's worth of video game rentals for free.  ( 1 per month.  Not the most amazing thing.  Then again I ran out of games I wanted to play by the third month. )

I sold $1000 worth of tickets ( to nobody fucking remembers ) in the cub scouts and won an entire car trunk full of survival swag.  Also a bike that I later broke with my lard ass.

I've jumped off so many buildings without a deathwish perfectly determined to land on my feet and roll away so now that I have a deathwish I constantly have to remember jumping off buildings isn't the way to go. 

does that work? like actually soften the fall? I'm NOT gonna try but jw

On a skateboard it's worked up to about a story and a half with me without having to "soften" the blow at all. Past that can't lie even when I had my ballsy "I really would like to be a stunt double/stuntman when I grow up" attitude when I dropped off of buildings two or more stories higher I kind of ninja'd that shit on the way down or had a plan so I wouldn't be free fallin' the whole way.. That shit and getting a reaction from people seeing me do it was new and fun back then though. The thrill dies fast with stunts like that, and the bigger you go the more you really have to plan and practice shit..

Also it's harder to feel accomplished with any stunt after doing  that kind of shit. I guess I am an adrenaline Junkie but most of the thrill of doing unconventional adrenaline junkie shit like I'm talking about was that practice really made that shit kind of perfect an effortless. I was poor so I made skateboarding and parkour my main method of transportation as early as middle school.. By the time I was in high school supposedly people around here thought I was legendary..So much people would see me jump off a small building and regularly say "OMG he's gonna jump" like I was trying to kill myself when it was really just a small one story drop to me, and it kind of just felt like sliding out of bed or something to me?

Shit's hard to explain... but really I get peoples fear there a one story drops still big as hell.. but I didn't even understand how people thought I was crazy.. I mean kids jump off their roofs all the time right kind of the same thing only I had to go bigger for a lil bit after the first time I ollied off of a typical house roof.
