[COLOR=Red]Yeah, so what kinda mad skills do you posess or what do people know you for? (on otaku or in your town, and hopefully this is different enough that it wont get closed if theres already a thread like this one.)

I'm widely known for my aspirations at becoming a good surgeon and being a pyro and an insomniac.

as far as skills go, i can keep a positive attitude in any situation (im optimistic) and occasionally ill do/say/think of something stupid that gets me recognition or slaps on the back of the head.

OK Yall go for it![/COLOR]

[size=1][color=slategray]People around town know me for being an absolute Elder Scrolls nerd and never leaving my house for that reason.
And everyone knows I suffer from headaches every day of my life.

I wonder how those two are connected?

Oh, right, and people know me for being obsessed with man love, lesbians, and chocolate. I daresay I'll have a fun college life. : D

Oh, forgot to add my skills.
Er.
Slash fan fictions. But I'm too lazy to write them recently. And I have a novel due. Oh, crap.[/color][/size]

I'm best known for my intellegence. I'm always referred to as "the smart one" and am usually the giver of advice and the problem solver. I'm very in tune with logical deduction and enjoy having debates about anything that peaks my interest. My aptitude and interest in psychology and philosophy help this a lot, and have really helped to form my current mental state. I am not only intellegent in theories of argumentation however, but street smarts as well. Though I don't look like a nerd, i do wear glasses, lol. Nobody ever expects me to be as intellegent as I am from my looks alone...

I am also mostly known for my photographic memory. I can remember most anything i try to dating as far back as even before pre-kindergarden. My long term memory is actually better than my short term memory, but both are pretty solid. Even now i had to take some time to think about what i ate for dinner last night, lol.

My imagination i suppose ties into the intellegence section, but one isn't required to excell in the other so i gave imagination it's own mention. It is the tool that allows for my writing to be what it is. I am able to create most anything with my active and wild imagination and convert it into some kind of story.

On the more negative side i am also known to be a very jealous person...it's something i've tried to kill over the course of the past few years and am still fighting the battle.

I am known for being something you don't see everyday ^^;; for most of my life it's been my long hair, although as a teenager a lot more people have it (bastards). Also, my name, Conrad, is fairly unique. When people see a long haired kid named Conrad, it's not easy to forget. There have always been more people who know my name than people I know the names of.

Also, people have often known me to be weird/annoying but that's in the past... hopefully

As for at home I'm known for being lazy (I try to get my bros to get everything for me XD) and manipulative and never giving up an arguement, and for falling asleep whenever the hell I want and being online constantly.

Online, I'm known for being a writer of all sorts, and I'm known for being pretty smart about a lot of things and at times overly deep.

On OB I don't know, I guess anyone else could answer that for me. I suppose I could be known for posting excessively and having, like, the 5th highest post count (if you combine all my accounts)

[COLOR=Blue]The main three skills that I have are: compassion(It's out of the ordinary people tell me), I can pick almost any lock out their, and I can...wait...I guess that's it :animeswea

The skills I'm known for(well at my high school): I have awsome accuracy in my archery class, a smooth talker, the guy who always seems like he's high but is actually just relaxed all the time, and I think that's it.

And as far as what I'm known for on the OB I think it would be the guy who spelt lonely wrong and the guy who's post are terrible :animeswea .[/COLOR]

wel during my freshman year, I was known for somethings that my friends would extort and use to their advantage:

1. I was [and possibly still am] a physics nerd: I knew all three of newton's laws of motion [inertia, motion, equalibrium] and could tell you what time really was:

The law of intertia states that an object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion, until an external force acts upon it

the law of motion states that inpulse = momentum

J= Force mutiplied by change in time. P = mass mutiplied by change in velocity
J= Force mutipled by change in time / time. P= mass mutiplied by change in veloctiy / time

^ that's all I can remembe, gomenasi :animeswea

the law of equalibrium states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

time is an mesurement of an event from beginning to end
represented as T
equation: change in Final T - change in intial T

___________________

2. also during the second semister of freshman year, people [B][I] always [/B][/I] noticed the suit jackets I would wear. my "friends" gave me the nicknames: hitman, whereas my professors gave me the nickname: Lawyer.
____________________

that's all I can remember now.

I just hope this coming sophmore year wil be different in a good way.

I'm best known for being the loud, flirtatious one. That also branches out into lesbian, weirdo, ho etc. etc. Luckily no one knows me as Mike's girlfriend. I guess I've made my own name with his friends (: I'm also known as the girl with an eyebrow phobia. Don't ask.

My skills are definatively creative. I like painting, web/graphic design and such. It all comes very easily to me. I think I could get into anything that involves colour, design or creative thinking.

[COLOR=Navy]There are a few things I am known for. My pottery, drawing, jewelry, and writing. I'm also known to be very quiet, shy and serious around people I'm not comfortable with and when I'm with very good friends who are older than me or the same age, etc...I'm really silly and out going.

So, basically, people that do not know me well, think I'm quiet and serious and when I'm just around people I'm close to, I'm silly.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue][quote name='Fasteriskhead']Being long-winded.[/quote]That is the truest and funniest post I've read in a long time. :p And just so there's no confusion. You know we love you Fasteriskhead, right? ;)

Anyway, I've probably best known among my friends for analyzing things and picking movies apart. I'm a psychology major and I find I can't help but attempt to analyze things especially since movies are so out of whack with the real world. It's something I try to leave behind online though I don't know if I succeed or not.

The other thing I'm known for is being intimidating. I think I got that one from being the one who will point out that someone is cheating in a game. My other friends will politely ignore it where I outright embarrass them for doing it. I suppose it's okay since my friends seem to find it hilarious, though the person cheating usually ends up never coming back to play again. They tell my friends that when I?m there they feel intimidated. Not my fault if they are going to cheat. [/COLOR]

[quote name='Fasteriskhead']Being long-winded.[/quote]

Indeed.

Ok, I'm basically known for three things:

Thing the first - extreme lazyness. I mean EXTREME. I basically don't do anything... ever. I sit there in class and don't take notes, don't write anything down, and rarley ever complete assignments. Ironically, whenever I do complete something and hand it in on time, I almost always get the top mark, especially in English.

Thing the... 2 - Incredibly poor penmanship. My capital N's are backwards, as are my S's. I would be a great ransom note writer because no two letters look anything alike, they'd never ****ing catch me. My science/history teacher always rode me about it. I remember one history assignment, something about the Greek gods... it was supposed to take all class (75 minutes) and I ended up doing it in about 5. I showed it to him, he said it was 100% right, and I had to go do it over again. I ended up re-writing it 9 times, and each time he asked the class to judge the handwriting... I found the whole thing pretty funny actually.

The Other Thing - My last name. I'm known pretty much universally as 'Baillie.' People I've never even talked to hear about me from my old Math/LA teacher (The incredibly awesome Mr.Boutin) and know me... which is pretty cool. I wouldn't say I'm popular as a result or anything, but it's kinda cool.

Oh yea, and I'm known for my boundless apetite; I eat just for the sake of eating. I'll eat pizza, poutine, a hamburger, and wash it all down with a ultra thick milkshake before going back for seconds.

Online, I'm known for two things, really:

One, I'm unanimously considered the most inept Counter-Strike player to ever log on. Maybe it has something to do with my 300+ ping or my 15-or-less FPS, or maybe I just suck, because no matter how much I play I never learn. I always make the same mistakes over and over and over... but it's funny, because I always keep going back. "**** I hate this game," I'll say as I log off in disgust, only to be back on getting owned 15 minutes latter. Kinda like my own little cocaine. I eventually kicked the habit and managed to delete it from my computer - I'll never get addicted again, it's to much of a ****ing pain to install it again because of ****** ****ing Steam!

Two, I'm known for getting myself into pointless, circular arguements and stubbernly defending my opinion, even with evidence stacked against me.

As for special skills, I can write a 600 word essay and get a 98% (I always lose two percent because I refuse to put the proper heading.) in about 30 minutes, and yet I conciously let deadlines slide by and hand things in late. I guess that counts as a skill.

[quote name='indifference][COLOR=DeepSkyBlue']And just so there's no confusion. You know we love you Fasteriskhead, right? ;)[/COLOR][/quote]Oh, I know. I just wish y'all would stop holding back those "What in the hell are you talking about?" posts that I know are waiting in the wings.

[quote name='Sara][color=#b0000b][size=1]And this is probably the most [i]succint[/i] [sic] you'll ever see him, folks.[/size'][/color][/quote]True, but succinctness and clarity aren't always the same things. Although if the boards are any indication I may be failing on both counts. :animeswea

And as long as I'm posting here again, I should add that eye-are-ell I'm actually [i]shy and reserved[/i] to the point where half the time no one can hear a thing I'm saying when I speak. Also, I once beat Ninja Gaiden II in three lives.

[color=#b0000b][size=1]As for myself, I hang out with a lot of like-minded people, so I don't know what distinguishes me particularly. Among my friends, I'm [b]the one who doesn't like card games[/b]. Other than that, I am perhaps [b]the most likely to start dancing for no apparent reason[/b], although perhaps again I am not.[/size][/color]

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=darkred]What I'm known for in my hometown of Kodiak, Alaska is being one of the smartest people in my grade. I have common sence, which not to be mean, not much people posses anymore.:animeswea I'm also a optimistic person and very happy all the time. In the thread where "what quote do you live by," mine was to not let my sadness rule your life, so i try to make the best of things. Also i'm known for my laughing. I laugh, I guess you can say, ALL THE TIME! I just make the habit of making situations funny.[/color][/font]

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=darkred]I don't posses a skill that I'm REALLY GOOD AT, but I'm generally good around most academics and sports. I'm an all around person! ;)[/color][/font]

Well, I'm not really known for anything on TheOtaku sites, but in the real world....I am a Martial Artist, the only thing I'm good at. My peers reconize me as a kick@$$ kicker. You don't ever get close enough to Sojiro so he can kick you in a fight. I'm also reconized for my ablity it do more katas (forms) than any other student my rank in our dojo. Aside of that, I have no other skills.

[size=1]I'm always that one guy that makes the funny noises in class. Aswell as the one who can draw rather well, gets nice grades for English and is funny on stage. You could call all for of those skills. My fifth would be talking nonsense, but that isn't really a skill.

On OtakuBoards I think I've made my more serious re-entry when I started making graphics (before that, no one knew if I had skills or not). At one point at least, I think I was doing quite nice. Lately my skills at graphics have gone stuck and I don't really spend attention on them anymore.

Whee.[/size]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkRed]Hmmm...special skills...well I have always been a intelligent being. Oh and I always seem to be able to get information out of people, kinda like interrogation. And I can sometimes be intimidating, like just look at people and make them feel intimidated. Oh and I don't guess its really a special skill or anything but...i'm a real good reader. Like, I'm good with words, reading them, pronouncing them, etc. But as far as special skills go, I suppose thats about it^^[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Hmm, what am I known for? Where do I begin?

Well I think on here I'm known for my pointless threads, pretty font (I was nomintated as one of the fifty most nifty people on Otakuboards for my font in 2005 :animesmil ) and rounabout way of getting to the point. I have no idea what else I'm known for here. Maybe talking too much... can you do that online?

In my group of friends both on and off line I'm known as the kind of person who doesn't take anything too seriously. Someone can make rude comments about me and I can be like oh that's nice. You're funny. I think my friends in Texas miss me because I was a sorce of entertainment and an unique specimine of a female from Western New York. I make people laugh without meaning to. Like the time I called one of my friends and didn't realize I called the right number.

I think I'm also seen as a very down to earth person. I don't act like someone I'm not and you either like me for that or you don't. And if you don't it's your loss because I'm a unique specimine of a female from Western New York.

I know I'm a terrible artist- ok not terrible but not very good either. I do decent sketches and I write.

And now I think it's time for a new thread, And who do I go to to get my name changed?[/color][/font]

I'm known for five forms of expression I do.

[b]Martial Arts:[/B] I'm a second degree red belt in Tae Kwon Do and I am awaiting my black belt test within this year. I'm also known for being able to fight most people of any physical set. Heh. Much like Sojiro, I am known for my ability to kick a person in the face while standing fairly quickly, regardless of height.

[b]Hip Hop Dancing:[/b] Look at my signature links "Original Gangsta". They are two seperate links to vids of me dancing around. Their not my best, but they are a taste of what I do. C-Walk, Pop'Lockin', Snappin', and I'm working on doing a style called krumping which is exremely demanding. Heh. (gained me the reputation of the white kid who can dance.)

[b]Street Basketball:[/b] Basically a loose form of basketball popularized by the And 1 Circuit team. It's like a form of Globetrotter style ball, except the moves actually work and are done by self-taught people, such as myself. If you wish to see what I mean, PM me with your e-mail. (gained me the reputation of the white kid who can ball.)

[b]Writing:[/b] I'm known more on the net for my writing than in real life, because I'm self concious about it. But I enjoy writing and do hope to make a career out of it someday.

[b]Drawing:[/b] I've been drawing my entire life. It's become my trade mark talent. I'm just known as one of the best artists to those around me. I personally don't think I'm all that great, but I guess a little talent goes a long way sometimes.[/color][/size]

What am I known for? What skills do I have? That's an interesting question...
'Round these parts, I am known for a few things...
- The girl who knows the Bible front and back. This is at church... I have always seemed to excel in that stuff...
- "The loud one". My mom went to a band meeting and when asked by a group of moms who her child was, they all said, "Oh, Marta... EVERYONE knows Marta..." & another mom said, "Well, she's not exactly the quietest girl..."
- "The good little Christian girl". Yep. That's pretty self-explanatory. In my school's band, I am the "most Christian" girl, according to some. I find that to be fascinating...
- "THE BAND NERRRRRRD". In my school, I'm up there on the list of Ultimate Band Nerds. I am after school every day for band something-or-another. Plus, this summer, I have practiced my trumpet twice a day every day.
- "That really good trumpet player". This I guess goes under "skills"...

SKILLS.

- Being smart, I guess. People seem to think that I am really smart.
- Being a really good Christian, according to peoplel. A lot of folks think I don't ever do anything wrong... they're not quite right, but okay.
- Playing the trumpet and other instruments. If I do say so myself, I pretty much rock at music. I am really good at the trumpet, and I tought myself the saxophone in about a week. I'm also figuring out clarinet, trombone, & guitar. Plus, I know piano.

[color=hotpink][size=1]ZOMG, it's Queen Asuka! >_>

So. I'm known for mostly one thing nowadays. I'm the [b]pink-haired bus driver[/b]! I swear, people stare at me like you wouldn't believe. People come up and ask to touch my hair. People ask me on a daily basis if my hair is a wig. It's pink. Yeah. I'm not a freak, by any means. I don't wear all black or anything crazy like that. I just have pink hair.

As for skills, I can drive a 40-foot bus like you wouldn't believe. I can also draw. And color. And dance. And...make really silly jokes. I can make anyone laugh, no matter what.[/color][/size]
