what is your silliest, simple accomplishment?

- That's a grand achievement
  
  Right? This was for simple stuff.
- Only when company is coming over. And I never have company over.
- The trifecta!

I answered a ringing payphone, just like in the movies.
- Had that happen in an elevator. Elevator call boxes have a phone line for emergencies.
  RING!
  (pushes button)
  "Hello?"
  "Hello, who is this?"
  "This is an elevator."
  "No, seriously, who is this?"
  "No, seriously, this is an elevator."
  (Everyone in the elevator starts laughing)
  "OMG... this really is an elevator!"
  "Well, yeah, that's what I told you."
  "How are you talking to me?"
  "The call box started ringing so I pushed the button."
  "Um, OK, can you hang up now?"
  "Well, there's no real phone, just a button and a speaker, so I think you have to hang up."
  (CLICK)
- In a public school that had is own number, a harmless prank people used to pull was to dial the payphone's own number then immediately hang up and dash off. It would then ring and confuse the person who was nearest.
  
  You just unlocked a memory here.
- This happened to me one time like 15 years ago. I was sitting on a bench and a pay phone next to me started ringing. I picked it up and the local police department was on the other end.
  They said they'd gotten a 911 call from this number. I said this was a pay phone and they were like, "Oh. Are there like, any kids or teenagers around?"
  I looked around. There was a big group of teenagers maybe 30ft from where I was sitting. "Yep, there's a few nearby."
  They said, "It was probably them. But we're gonna send someone by just to make sure everything's okay."
  A few minutes later a cop came by and asked if I was the person they spoke to on the phone. "Yep." He looked around and verified there was no emergency and then left.
- Is that how they found you, Nemo?
- What did it say? Don't leave us hanging, goddamnit!
  
  I was in a train station, a woman was looking for her skateboarder son who was supposed to be waiting for the next train. He wasn't there.

I ended up with the absolute worst shopping buggy in the store, constantly clacking and hanging up. I found it was somehow much easier to push backwards..
People looked at me funny, but hey, if it seems stupid but works, it's not stupid.
- I actually like driving backwards sometimes because you can do cool reverse 180 spins
- I always get stuck with the cursed cart but I roll with it. In a crowded store on the weekend nothing is more fun than power walking and doing extreme maneuvers with a loud as fuck cart.

I committed to sleeping in a silk bonnet every night, and my hair is so much nicer now :)
- Hell yeah

- Neat! Also, I don't know you but, I'm glad you're here
- Congratulations on being here! You matter !

One time as a 19-year-old, I planned out an entire Traveler campaign in the span of two weeks. 46 planets, each with distinct cultures, local flora and fauna, and a unique questline for each one. There was an overarching plotline about a Doctor Sinestar abducting people and stealing tech. I basically spent two weeks in my room furiously typing from when I woke up until I fell asleep at my keyboard, ignoring my bodily functions until my body forced me to take care of it. It was a race against burnout, and I won, but at what cost?

- Can you harmonize with yourself?
- That's cool as fuck.
  
  It’s really easy! Hum using the back of your throat (it’s bassy) while pursing your lips, you use the air to push the whistle. You don’t have a lot of control over your tones but it’s fun.

I regularly finish the ink of a Bic pen.
- they taste awesome, right??

I can wiggle my ears

I find the mates to MOST of my socks
- Did you work out where the drier puts them? Every load, two matching socks go in, but when I unload them there's either; just one sock, or two different socks.
  
  There is a pocket dimension, just behind the lint filter. I use one of those grabbers to fish socks out and I toss back ones that aren't mine.
  
  No shit, most washing machines really eat socks. They sometimes slip between rubber and drum and then slowly dissolve. Have seen a video of that happening. And have found a lost sock when I had to repair the machine.
  
  I cheat and use Loc-a-Sok sock holders. I still may take forever to get my laundry out of the dryer, but almost never lose a sock!
- THEY IS THE CHOSEN ONE

In line with your submission, I kept a Bic pen from brand new to absolutely gone. It took years, but I'm not exactly jotting down notes all day.
Now I carry a nub of a carpenter's pencil with me and I'm much happier.
- In line with yours, I broke my new pen & kept it till it was empty as well!

I can place my hands in front of my chest and make circles, hands going in opposite directions.
- Have you tried patting your head and rubbing your belly at the same time?
  
  Yeah, kind of the same mind control.
- Nice

How many you finish by eating them?
- Most of that was in my youth so I don’t know. at least 10

I 100%-ed FFX-II. I don't recommend this.
- I was watching a friend who was trying to get all the blue mage spells and I was baffled my his level of dedication. I didn't even unlock that class...
  I know RPGs are grindy sometimes, but X-2 wasn't enjoyable to me, at all. 2/10, more Rikku.
  I admire your dedication.
- Was 10 the one with blitzball? I never went past that arena, that game should have been released as a standalone, fun as fuck.
  
  Yep. I 100%-ed X as well, but that wasn't nearly as bad.
- 🤣

I can consistently separate the chocolate from both waffles without breaking any of them with Hanutas. And I can do the same for Prinzenrolle but with slightly less consistency. The latter are more dependend on temperature.

How the hell did you finish 3 chapsticks?
- In the last few years I've finished a dozen or so. In college I used about 1 pen per semester from start to finish in the same way. I tend to use nail clippers until they are dull, too.
  I leave a chapstick (Burt's bees) at my desk at home and another in the pants I go out with (which moves to new pants with my wallet as necessary). Hard to lose things when I have a system, I guess.
  
  I've had the same pair of nail clippers for like, 20 years now? The brand doesn't exist anymore, sadly.
  
  Same here.
- Dedication.

I'm really good at tearing away paper towels from the toll with one hand

I personally have finished three chapsticks from top to bottom.
That's easy. I did that this weekend!
(using them correctly, not eating them.)
Oh. Uh. Nevermind.

I can get my tongue inside my nose from the inside. Helps cleaning out the nose and nasal passages.
- Are you an alien?...
  
  I was a curious kid and can do this for a long time. I found out later that this is an established yoga technique called "Khechari Mudra".
  There is even a Wikipedia page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khecar%C4%AB_mudr%C4%81

I finished Heavy Barrel on one credit, in the exact same time it took Ride the Lightning to play through on a walkman.

I'm downtown right now. For me that's big. I hate the city. It feels like one big cage and there's too many people. This whole time I just want to run away and let them throw me in jail for skipping jury duty but I'm keeping it together. So that's a w I guess
- That's awesome.!

Feels silly but I’m jazzed about my pen hitting the end of its ink life this week.
Also I can write my name super small.
- Damn that’s itty bitty

Learning React JS or at least a bit of it.
Didn't realize until recently that since I knew a bit of HTML, CSS, and vanilla JS that it wasn't like learning a new language. It was essentially like learning a new way to mix aspects from all three.

I managed to keep the same pair of sunglasses for nearly 20 years.
I lost them when I was helping my sister move and her mother-in-law mistook them for hers. By the time we figured it out she couldn't find them.

I slept with your mom. I know she bangs everyone, but it meant something to me.
- Dad? Is that you?! Did you finally get those cigarettes?
