[gray gazelle]

Idk if this counts but I eat sphaggeti with nothing on it

[fading narwhal]

I can crush a watermelon with my thighs

Its surprisingly easier than youd think

[gray gazelle]

That’s cool

[fading narwhal]

@jade lake i saw that

[sly mesa]

I can do the trick where you spin your pen in your hand

Is that better?

[fading narwhal]

You cant escape your sins

[fading narwhal]

But yeah its mainly technique

Plus i have massive thighs so that helps

[sly mesa]

I can do it with pencils too

[carmine shore]

We have some real Degenerates when it comes to pokemon here

[old belfry]

Ok I can do one better
I had 1 (one) account in the top 5 of the gen 8 PURE hackmons ladder

[foggy wave]

Does being able to wiggle my ears count?

[fading narwhal]

Id say so

[sly mesa]

That's pretty fun

[fading narwhal]

And by that i mean that they know a lot about pokemon

Not that they

[fading narwhal]

@carmine shore what does the ox emoji mean?

[carmine shore]

[shut swallow]

fraud alert

[oak sandal]

I found and confirmed the location of the first and currently the only known F-Zero AX Arcade Machine to exist within Australia. F-Zero AX Machines on their own are already incredibly rare, the F-Zero community have been keeping tabs on the last remaining machines for over a decade, and for the absolute longest time no one knew where any of them were in Australia until I found the first. It is estimated that two others may exist in the country, yet this hasn't been confirmed as they haven't been found yet.

[carmine shore]

ok here's something impressive

one of my teams got accepted into bh samples

[old belfry]

I think I recognize your pfp somewhere on stunfisk actually

[jade lake]

adv lc is real haters..

[carmine shore]

[fading narwhal]

If i didnt make this it would have been on my mind all day

I genuinely wouldnt have been able to sleep

Plus now i have a good image to bring up wherever spoiled says anything

[jade lake]

simple no retreat 😍

i was wrong this tier is awesome

[fading narwhal]

Probably for like 2 or 3 days

Not doing something that immediately comes to my mind is so annoying

[old belfry]

I understand not being able to sleep over not having a spoiled fraud image

[rugged kite]

I have a chipped front tooth I got from falling over

[foggy wave]

What does your front tooth look like now?

[rugged kite]

There's actually a process called bonding, used for filling front teeth

The colour resembles the original tooth, but you can see the difference if you look closer

[foggy wave]

Oh thought you kept the tooth as was.

[rugged kite]

How it's done is that the filling is slowly put in layer by layer, and UV light is used to solidify the filling

Actually pretty cool process tbh, when seeing it in action

But if you're asking about the chipped tooth's shape, it was chipped at a slightly curved diagonal

Main problem is that the filling isn't suited for chewing hard food, so all the chewing I do is handled by the back teeth now

[iron comet]

does it hurt when u touch it

[native hearth]

my polish sucks

[rugged kite]

At the time of injury, only the inner exposed part of the teeth hurt, but since it's covering by filling now it doesn't hurt anymore

oh yeah and my right big toe pops every time i flick it

that’s cool tacoforce5 trivia

[turbid warren]

PETER STEELE?????????

[random lodge]

... idk why ur doing this..

[fading narwhal]

Because being negative all the time is lame

Like its horrible

Not only for you but also for other people to constantly read it all the time

[random lodge]

idt saying "im not interesting" is negative...

like its a QOTD and its an answer to a question you had...

[fading narwhal]

Im not having this convo right now

[random lodge]

there is nothing negative about it tho? how so

[fading narwhal]

^

[random lodge]

then why question me if you arent gonna accept an answer

[rugged kite]

I wouldn't call that questioning?

A bit harsh, but that's more discouraging than questioning

[rugged kite]

imo, putting a lot of your focus on things you're not great at, and almost none of the stuff you've actually accomplished, is at least pretty pessimistic, if not outright negative

And even if you don't think it's negative, other people have and will perceive it as such, which can be pretty grating if you're more or less constantly doing it

You don't have to think of yourself as, like, a really cool and great person or whatever, but you shouldn't focus too much on your lack of things and instead on what you do have

[random lodge]

but like what would be smth i 1) willing to share 2) would consider smth most peopel wouldnt know 3) smth worth commenting about...

like how is it negative? or how can it be seen as such... not everyone will have smth to share and i think QOTD is just supposed to get as many unique responses as possible.... if everyone answers "hey my preferred weapon is a sword" is that a good QOTD?

[random lodge]

even then how is answering "hey idt i have much unknown fun facts about myself" focusing on the lack of things ... it could just be that the things i think are fun facts are alr smth i have discussed with other people

like if i say "i was top 10 in pokemon shwodown UU ladder at one point" im 99% sure people have heard this and is hard to relate to as to why this would be a fun fact

[fading narwhal]

I have never heard that

And its actually really cool

[random lodge]

well most people owuldnt relate to it and find it boring.... and nobody would care if its about smth they havent heard before

so why share smth most people owuld just be like "lol ok"

[rugged kite]

If you don't have an answer you could also just
not answer

the fact that you had no good answer and decided to answer anyway before you thought of one brings attention to said fact, deliberately or otherwise

[random lodge]

its still QOTD... that is still an answer... like asking people "what do you do after exams are over" some people might say "do nothing".. i think that is a valid answer

idt there is much wrong with saying "idt i have an unknown fact about myself"

[visual kayak]

I was born in the sulfur pits of Yellowstone National Park

And I'm also over 10,000 years old

[rugged kite]

stuff like that are absolutely valid answers, yeah (even if it misses the point of the question somewhat), but that coupled with your initial framing of "I'm not very interesting as a person" (as opposed to your framing now of "I can't think of any unknown fun facts about myself") just doesn't paint a picture of healthy self-esteem, y'know?

this discussion doesn't seem to be accomplishing much for all of us involved though, so I'd like to cut it short, unless you have anything new to add

[random lodge]

many people say they are uninteresting... like u see this constantly on other social media and idt anything bad about it... Why is it here specifically that its bad?

more so reddit when a fun facts about urself thread pops up

[rugged kite]

I'd say it's because Discord is perceived as more conversation-focused than post-focused

on most social media stuff like that are more like individual posts that you can just scroll past and not interact with, if you're not interested in them, and your interactions with the media itself can thus be done regardless of others

On Discord, messages are a constant stream, and you need to read most if not all of them to participate in any meaningful manner, and so more focus is given to the conversation as a whole, and thus all the participants in them

Heck, on reddit specifically anything that's not very interesting just won't get upvoted, and thus most of the time you don't even see those posts/comments unless you scroll pretty far down

And thus the difference in reactions between reddit and here
