The interesting trivia/facts about yourself thread

What about "The great unwashed" ?

 

I wash. About once a week.

 

The slight chance of them becoming queens.

 

Trickster comes from a rich family. Don't expect him to understand the hard thug lyfe on the street.

 

Typing lyfe with a Y just to make it clear fooshi is a G that dropped out of school

 

Well the one time we met you were drunk as shit.

Funfacts about me:

- I have an aristocratic background/family
- I do traditional swordfighting with longswords
- I am a fantasy nerd so I actually would like to read destroyers stories
- I work as a Xray-technician without any proper education in this branch
- I do weed from time to time and wookie still likes me

gtfo or stay on topic

 

x-ray technician without education? woot? Where dyou work? Not in a hospital I hope?

 

:p nope and although i have no proper education in that branch its mostly computer stuff. That - I know good. Also I only fire those babies when no one is in the unsecure area

 

ow lol :p well if you break one it's not that they are that costly in comparisement to the other toys they have there :p

 

i think the cheapest replacement card costs around 10000 € :p and the whole machine in new is around 90.000 - 150.000 but okay...

 

What I went to a hospital and they told us the X ray machine costs 20000!

 

Yeah but if he's using cards then it's digital radiography, I do a lot of work with that kind of shit too. The 20k machine your talking about is the regular type of X-ray machine.

Moonchild, what kind of stuff do you do radiography with? NDT?

Both of these make me excessively Jelly.

Sadly not, just thoroughly middle class. For ages though, I used to be ashamed of not being poor (a lot of people I knew were), but then it occurred to me that having parents who worked hard is nothing to be ashamed of, and that I should embrace not having monetary issues. I mean we never had expensive cars or a particularly big house (and 6 of us lived there because my Grandparents did too), but whilst it has come close to the wire a few times, we've never got into major issues, so I've never been in a position where if I genuinely need something, I can't have it.

But then I take it a step further by being an asshole and mocking poor people. But that's because I'm a dick.

 

Shit Trickster, we're in the same boat. Throughout all of high school it made me a bit depressed that if I wanted to talk about something interesting with my friends that cost money, I was essentially bragging and taunting them because they couldn't afford it and I could, and I was lucky for having hard working parents that would always get me what I needed and would do anything to help make me a better person.

Eventually I realized that I shouldn't feel so bad, in fact I should be using what I have to make others better if I'm better off than them, and I suppose that's where our boats diverge.

 

Well, my secondary school had a LOT of richfags in, given it was selective, rather than open to anyone. It didn't cost per year but you had to pass some tests to get in. It was an eye opener really. You still had poorer guys there, but there was this one guy who I just remember dealing with it perfectly (both his parents were doctors), and just pointing out that, given both his parents were doctors, they worked for that money, and that's how it is.

Unrelated, but I spent like 30 minutes at work trying to crop a picture of the Asian pointy hat onto the picture of Candles today, but gave up in the end.

 

Try harder. Also, why?

 

Because the moment I saw you, I just thought of some Sensei guy going "CONFUCIUS SAY".

 

Yeah some maintenance NDT stuff (nothing really intersting, just diagnostics for radiation levels and picture quality), but mostly I do software maintenance for DR. My company sells DR components and complete systems to hospitals and surgeries. So I am the guy to bring those machines into the local networks and setting up the software and when everything goes to hell I am the guy who has to get up late at night and fix stuff...

 

That leads me to another interesting fact: I'm half assorted Scandinavian, most of which is Norwegian, a quarter combined Mexican/Indian/Spanish, and a quarter French-Canadian/Canadian-Indian. I've had MANY people think that I'm Asian.

 

join the club ( of being azn)

 

I believe im slightly taller than that :p
