Hi everyone, i would like to know what makes you stand out from your immediate environment. It could be something physical or a feature that qualifies you.

I’ll go first, i have quite large feet from years of moving around barefooted and while growing up, i had to have shoes custom made as most of the good ones were made in general sizes only, i still have trouble getting shoes.

    Not sure if this is quite what you’re asking about, but my speech tends to be a bit stilted. Enough so that people sometimes comment.

    Physical features, though? Nothing I can think of.

    I don’t know what the reason is, but I have a large friend group of almost exclusively males, and I am a respected, listened to female, who can easily command the room. I can also deadlift twice my body weight.

    I can basically ride a bicycle forever as long as I eat and drink enough, until the lack of sleep overwhelmes me.

    People keep commenting on how extremely fit I must be.
    But honestly, if you find the right pace it’s like a brisk walk, and if your bike and your clothes fit, it’s more comfortable than that.

        I actually do. I participated in a 1-day 250km group ride in the Netherlands recently. But I did it on easy mode with a road bike, there were people riding a traditional baker’s bike (including the box) while wearing wooden clogs.

          I don’t think I ever saw someone wear clogs there. Bicycling on an omafiets/opafiets is the way to do it.

      I would think the environment factors into that a lot too. I’ve had 30 mile rides kick my ass more than 80 mile rides due to things like hills and wind. But put me on a stationary bike and I could probably go 150+ miles in a day.

        the bidet temporarily connects my butthole with a near infinite series of tubes containing pure water and in that moment I am the clean water and the clean water is me

          That’s some wild poetry there.

    I’m attractive, moderately charismatic, large, weird, generally kind, and unable to shut my damn mouth.

    I’m able to blend into my surroundings, but I have to choose to. The rest of the time yeah, everyone figures out who I am

    I have red curly hair and I tend to wear big hats and sunglasses in the summer, and I find that makes people (read: men) stare at me. Idk.

    I’m also fanatically polite and nice in person, and people respond a lot. Bad manners is my pet peeve.

    Right now? I’m a 6’2" pasty white guy in Asia (or Casper per my favourite overheard discussion).

    Get close enough to me in a very quiet area, specifically close to my heart, and you will hear ticking noises. Freaked out my older brother once because of that scenario. Mechanical heart valve.

    Nothing. I avoid going outside as much as possible and I’m wearing earbuds all the time. So people leave me alone.
