The Players Behind The Game

I love you gals! You make me feel really tall, and I'm only 5'8"!

Dude, please. They are competitive sports. If you are not bragging about skill you have hard worked to acquire, then I have no idea what motivates you.

Black people can't swim, that's just science bro.

I used to train with my buddy who was an ama-pro boxer. Great workouts. Much tougher than I had expected. Never did the Kickboxing thing. I have a high respect for Kickboxing and Muay Thai.

Perfect height for me.... just sayin. Winkity wink wink.

What motivates me is the hispanic girls on the sideline. Only reason I still play soccer tbh
It's funny because the best african swimmers at the most recent Olympics were a South African swimmer (Chad Le Clos) and a Zimbabwean swimmer (Kirsty Coventry) and they were both white.

Personally I cannot think of better motivation than the ladies...

Science man.... it's science.

I love how we're now discussing hobbies and activities. I'm going to invite myself because I'm "that guy." LOL

I obviously love comics and video games. If I could, I would basically sit around all day every day and do only that, while going out occasionally. Of course, the bills would not be happy, so I can't do that.

I play guitar, mostly acoustic, on a relatively amateur level. I played bass in an underground hardcore screamo cover band back when I was 13, and I played bass for my church's band when I was 14. I know, holy transition batman.

I snowboarded for many years. I absolutely loved it and turned out I was good at it. Now I live in Florida...

In high school, I was on the swim team, basketball team, baseball team, football team, and tennis team. I was decent but not good at any of them. I was also in the speech and debate team, marching band, journalism crew, snowboarding crew, and extracurricular planning committee. Those, on the other hand, I was pretty good at and enjoyed way more.

I love physical activities, and yet I avoid them like the plague. I don't understand myself either. I got out of the Marines in July 2011, then I did NOTHING physical other than work. I don't really put on weight, so I looked pretty much the same anyway. I then decided to run a Tough Mudder in March of this year. I wasn't first over the line, obviously, but I was up there.

Yeah that's all I can think of about me. Also, on my last post I mentioned Carlynn and Little Sister are both very pretty. I definitely missed Treat's picture before I typed that. Wow. All three of you are freakin gorgeous hahahaha.

Also, Free, I can't find your post but you mentioned getting rid of Asthma. I had it before i joined the Marines, and I kicked it with a trick my family doctor told me "off the record." I ran every day, only 1 mile, while smoking a cigarette. Focusing on smoking the cigarette forced me to control my breathing, and after a couple months my asthma was basically gone and I was ready for the Marines. Of course, then I had another habit to kick, but hey my asthma was gone! LOL

Thanks! I actually have a lot of my writing posted on Figment (http://figment.com/users/227866-Emily-Spear) if you ever want to check it out. I'm always looking for great feedback (I haven't posted anything in a while, but I am still working on it, it's just a matter of not getting distracted by DCUO or the forums )

I wanna be short ... am 5'10"

Sounds like you were quite the busy man! Thank you for your service, btw! I would try that trick, but I can't even stand the smell of smoke. It makes me sick to my stomach even being around it, so I don't know how I'd fare if I took it up (plus there's the whole addiction thing)

Love you, too, Carlynn, but you are NOT a member of the midget club! (5'8" is like technically model height for a woman )

OMG, your hair is so long and beautiful. So jealous.

OMG D: GET AWAY FROM ME! DX WAH!

Awh, you make me blush >.>

D: No.. There is nothing wonderful about vertically challengeness. Be glad you can reach over the fridge and the top shelves.

I've always had it long :< It goes to slightly below my butt. u_u One time in high school i did cut it shoulder short and had it done in layers with about 2 inches worth from the tips of the layers dyed red so that it looks like my hair turns from my black hair to well red. XD Omg I liked it but... I felt so lightheaded all the time, it was a pain to keep balance... Granted my hair did not like being short so before I knew it my hair was back to being slightly below my butt. :<

See, I'm *obviously* the tallest, but that's not saying much, considering my older sister (the one in the middle) is 4'11.75".... (I'm the one in the pink dress. My older sister is on a hill so she looks taller than my younger sister, but really my younger sister's an inch shorter than I am.)

This was like 3 years ago.

It's not you, it's the height D: I get paranoid around anyone taller than me

So around everyone then.

Yeh... >.< I have the strangest fears

Why? That is perfect.

Took me awhile to muster up the non-lazy enough to read this (I know, I have a problem).

Growing up my brother played acoustic and bass. So I watched him do his thing. Of course that was HIS thing, so I didn't take it up. I've always been interested in piano. I taught myself a bit, but nothing of note. This might sound stupid to some, but I grew up under the genre of hiphop. So I know a little bit of the tables, I am pretty decent with the raps (spanish and english) , and know a little bit from the production side. A few of my buddys are in that field. Engineers of some pretty big names with plaques on the walls.

Dude your high school had "snowboarding crew" ??? I would have killed for that. California I guess was a bit different. We did however have bloods and crips... so there's that. In Highschool I was only 1h from Truckee and 1.5h from Tahoe though, so all good

Agreed, the chicks who do not play on my server all seem to be pretty ladies... *shakes first* How can I woo them now when they can't see how amazing I am?

LOL maybe not a great idea to trade your asthma for emphysema. If and I mean a big IF were the case. Free may want to take up swimming or singing for breath control. Just a thought.

What a weird place for sharing and friendliness. Because when I log on to the game and read /lfg it's usually people arguing and being goons to each other.
