Post 3 things you've done in your lifetime that you don't think anybody else on your friends list has done.

See if anybody else responds with "I've done that."

Have your friends cut & paste this into their journal to see what unique things they've done in their life.



1) Had my hands on Helen Hunt's body (she was not pleased). (And yes, it was in the course of my work.)

2) Got an A in a class I actually never attended (I forgot to drop it off my course schedule, and then the teacher died unexpectedly and they gave everyone As.)

3) Caught and killed the frog I dissected when I was 12. (If you've done this you probably went to the same school I did.)

These are funny, especially 2, and I haven't done them. I'm amusing/disturbing myself now by wondering if I would have been excited or appalled about 3 if the 12 year old me had to do it. Despite many years of veganism and interest in animal rights I fear the answer would have been the former...

I know! I really wouldn't want to catch and kill a frog, now, even though I haven't been a vegan but 12 year olds think differently. They're much more likely to think about learning about survival tactics, and I suspect that's about brain developement in humans. Thinking about vague things like animal rights and holding them important in your mind at all times is possibly something associated with adult brain functioning.
