I say ow in videogames when my charecter gets hurt

I once got killed on a pony ride. I was like 2(I just hear this story from family who was present at the time) The ponies were walking in a circle -hey have no choice they're tied to a spinning post in the middle. Then my pony gets stung by a bee and kicked me into the crowd. My grandpa caught me when I came over the fence and probably saved my life.

Way back when I was in drivers ed I started doing this strange thing when ever we used the simulator. Basically, the simulator was fake dashboards one behind another in a trailer. At the front was a screen and at the back a projector. All you did was follow the video and this was supposed to be the simulator.

One time we were simulating the passing. The movie got right up behind this big truck so we couldn't see around. Then I hear my teacher say "Leaning out the window isn't going to help you see around the truck." Sure enough I was leaning out the side of my little fake dashboard area trying to see around the truck. After that I caught myself doing the same thing every time we did a passing simulation.

Bugs usually don't bother me. If a spider or earwig crawls up me I just brush it off.

I get petrified with butterflies though. If they land on me I freak out =/ Irrationality is fun.

Simulators are the stupidest things on the face of this planet. I kinda hoped it was just a Utah thing, I didn't want to think it was inflicted on people everywhere.

But, yeah, mine was broken, so it would go to full speed by itself. The only way I could stop it was to stand on the break (literally). It kept me from being docked for speeding, but I got docked for breaking to hard instead.

Then again...Drivers ed teachers tend to be the worst drivers out there. I'm waiting to go out on the range, and my teacher comes driving up his pick-up truck, doing like 50 MPH over speed bumps in front of a bunch of drivers ed students.

Same teacher almost killed me on my driving test. I'm driving along, and because I'm a big guy, I'm kinda slouched over in the car. So, what does the guy do? He mutters something about the windshield being dirty, reachs over across my face so I can't see, puts his arm through the steering wheel so I can't steer, and starts playing with the windshield wipers.

I don't like having people walk or come up behind me. It's not a "oh! you suprised me!" thing, it's more of an intense feeling of not-goodness. I think it comes from the fact of being stabbed in the back after passing some guys at a pool coupled with a depressing history of being grabbed from behind until I learned how to defend myself.

But one of the not-so-serious quirks I have is a neck "twitch" my brother and I both get when we're getting irritated. I say "twitch" because it's not a short, jerky movement but more like we're trying to crack our necks. Our friends call us on it all the time because we rarely even realize we're doing it. One time we actually did it at the same time. They thought it was hilarious.

Let's see I have a lot of weird quirks. But as of late I have this laid back personality and nothing really bothers me. I've overcome all my fears. Though here are some of the things that used to bother me bad.

I don't like to expose my neck if I'm lying outside with my eyes closed. Watched too many horror movies with throat slashings and I think that'd be the worst way to go. So either I kept my eyes opened or i had to keep tucking my chin down. lol It's also when I go to bed I have to have the blanket up to my head only at first though. It's weird my g/f is exactly the same way. I don't do it anymore though.

Another thing was ladders that weren't supported. I couldn't walk up a ladder if someone wasn't holding it. If someone took their hands off of it while I was going up I'd just stop. I wasn't afraid of heights either. Once I was on the roof I could walk around or hang over the side whatever I wanted. But it was the thought of an unsteady ladder that really bothered me.

Automatic doors are what I really hate. The ones that don't open fast enough I'm always worried I'm going to run into them so I'd like stutter step when I got close to them. Tragic automatic door accident when I was little. lol

I also say ow on the slightest impact even if it doesn't hurt. I still do this. I think I just got in a habit of doing it. If it really does hurt it's oww followed by a string of swearing.

I say oww whenever something hit's me weakly or touches me unexpecingly. When ever I really get hurt I never say anything. Or I scream. That's the other option.

I actually had a funny experience when my social studies class was watching a movie and I decided to crack my back. Of course, when I did do it, it kind of projected through the classroom and about half the class cringed and murmured in disgust. It was pretty funny to say the least considering some people were cracking their knuckles right before me, and that was rather loud too. I just love grossing people out in subtle ways like that, I get a lot of kicks out of it.
