I don’t have a filter in my head that stops me from saying outragious things.

Nothing that I know of. I like to blend in most if the time, and I think that’s what usually happens.

Pants on or pants off?

I’m a zippy, humorous people person and a comedian at heart. I am not always “on”, but…I am infamous for cracking jokes and making friends with strangers. I love making people laugh, and it is joyful to come across engaging people. I can hold an audience pretty damn well for as novice jokester.haha
I also dress in my signature bohemian style with pigtails and get many compliments on my eclectic adornments.

When I was younger my looks caused me to stand out. I once got a surprise glimpse of myself in a big mirror, and it was like…wow.

My height. I’m six foot five inches.

I speak my mind.

This makes me stand out.

Period.

Most of my interesting traits are not visible. I guess the only things unusual about my appearance are my weight (<100 lb) and that I wear my hair pretty short for a woman my age. But that’s becoming more common now.

I’m a strong communicator and I speak well. I can be assertive, without coming across as aggressive.

About half of the year is spent in my partner’s small British town. My American accent is obvious.

I’m the one farting & blaming the old man next to me, laughing a lot.

I’m not sure why I stand out in a crowd. I’m not remarkable physically, but I love fun and laughter. I’m not sure where the leadership skills were learned, but my guys that worked in the department I managed were frigging amazing in what efforts they’d go to. And I organized sporting events there, basketball games, softball games, and people would travel 90 minutes at night to attend. The CEO of the bank would swing by most nights. I never could figure out why I’d pick a night for them and guys would attend with their families and we’d go out afterwards to a bar and just hangout. Those were good times.

Everyone tells me I have beautiful long hair.

I’m too kind and trusting.
I tend to go on the road less traveled.

@Mimishu1995 So you’re a backdoor girl?

@Adirondackwannabe You want to come here? ~

@Mimishu1995 So you can kick my ass?

I would love to see your country.

Sort of like @talljasperman
My size-6’4” +or – a half an inch, 205 lbs.
Pretty big scar from right eyebrow to to right sideburn. Not gross, but hard to ignore.
Plus, if on the beach I have a visible tattoo that says “I am become death”. Seemed like a good idea at the time.

At work, I’m in the minority due to my race (I’m white).

Otherwise, there’s nothing in particular that would make me stand out in a crowd. I’m 5 foot 9, which is generally considered tall for a woman. Nothing in particular other than that.

cookieman's avatar

I look like a mobster. Tends to get me noticed when I just want to blend in.

anniereborn's avatar

I guess it would depend on what crowd is around me.

rojo's avatar

Spent most of my life trying to blend in.

ZEPHYRA's avatar

Yes, they say my charismatic nature makes me stand out. I have not noticed it though.

longgone's avatar

I don’t usually stand out – except for when I am out and about with three or more dogs.

Espiritus_Corvus's avatar

I have a large handlebar mustache that I grew on the last voyage. Rather impressive, too, I must say. It turns up at the ends naturally, requiring no wax, etc. I kinda like it, but it tickles my cheeks sometimes. But I don’t like standing out in a crowd more than I do, so I’ll probably shave it off when I get back to the Caribbean.

Oh yeah—I’m often the only Caucasian in view, but it doesn’t appear to bother anybody.

@josie “I am become death”. Seemed like a good idea at the time.” You made me spit my Egg McMuffin all over my key board!

CWOTUS's avatar

I never would have taken @josie for a Hindu. Live and learn.

Coloma's avatar

Haha..I recently saw some photos of the worst tattoos ever. One guy actually had the words ” Pussy Eater” tattooed across his upper lip! OMG!
Yeah, I’m here to apply for the front desk position. lol
Another had his nose tattooed to look like one of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters. So-bad!

Dutchess_III's avatar

@josie‘s a Hindu? Guess he better say out of Indiana.

CWOTUS's avatar

The line “I am become death, destroyer of worlds” is from the Bhagavad Gita (I’m not even going to check the spelling) and is attributed to Vishnu, the many-armed Hindu god. The line is also quoted by Robert Oppenheimer as he wrote about the birth of the atomic bomb during WWII.

Dutchess_III's avatar

Impressive. But “I am become death,” still sounds like something a LOL cat would say!

cheebdragon's avatar

Light pink hair.

^^^ I can so see that!
