Your most bragable feat

Post by SergeXIII »

What is the thing that you have done that you believe you get the most bragging rights out of?

Heres mine. I once took apart an entire Dell Inspiron 5150 labtop computer using only the plastic tooth pick that came with my swiss army knife.

I made it with two chicks at the same time.
I need to aim a little higher for my next feat. I'm thinking Olsen twins.

Jason Hayes (composer of the music for World of Warcraft) did a short story contest with the intent of making an album of songs "inspired by" the stories. A story I wrote when I was 17 got picked for it o_O The album's taking a while, though ...

It isn't much, but it's all I got =f

Um, nothing big.

You see, I work in an AFM lab. Well, one day a company that makes widgets for inserting artificial lenses for people with cataracts was having a problem. The widgets were not working properly--sticking. The widgets were made out of plastic and through doing a "time series" study--where we make an image, set the sample aside, come back some days later and make another, repeat as needed--we saw that some softer polymer was "blooming" to the surface, then collecting as blobs. This established a definite shelf-life on these widgets and established a standard that only "fresh" ones be used to ensure they work properly.

So, nothing major. Just helped give sight to the blind.

Actually, it does depend who I'm talking to. Most normal people are most impressed by the fact I've made a bumper sticker that they've probably seen around. I'm completely neh about that one though.

Founded OhayoCon. It's funny how things in the past look when you think about it.

I guess I can give a real answer (even though my previous statement is true). I lost 130 lbs with no tricks or gimmicks. I wanted it gone, and I got rid of it by running a lot and not eating crap.

I made sure no one was around for that earth-shattering event.

Put me in the same boat as PAL for the shedding of pounds. We both lost around the same amount of weight by the same means: exercise and not eating crap. It's so nice not to have to scrounge for 3XL shirts anymore, and airline seats are much roomier now. :D

I almost half-convinced myself that being a moderator would be an appropriate example of a leadership position to put on a resume. That was a nasty hangover the next morning, let me tell you.

I passed 11th grade without doing a scrap of homework at home. Did it all at school.

I was the lead role in a MUSICAL, BITCH! The Happy Prince.

And unfortunately I have nothing else in life to brag about... oh wait, I can down a pint of beer faster than anyone I know (personally).

No prob. You just took a dump 65 times. In a row.
