    Phone calls are my Kryptonite. I am literally unable to hold a phone convo for more than 5 minutes and always hate those moments in a group when a phone gets passed around and you have to say a quick hi to someone, or the person you're talking to passes the phone to someone with little warning. Maybe not hate, but it just feels so awkward. Also, I always let phone calls go straight to voicemail

    I hate phones with a fiery passion

    I'm fine with them in a personal sense but any job where phonecalls are warranted on a regular basis? Hate hate hate hate hate hate hate 'em

    I despised all the jobs I had manning phones because fuck you people just use email instead of mumbling at me

    "Good afternoon, Shop Name Interflora Liiya speaking, how may I help you?" every. bloody. time.

    And then they ask if we're interflora. I JUST SAID SO!!!

    SECRET: when i was maybe 7 or so, I saw a kid I knew from school kicking a dog. I didn't know his name. The dog was cowering in a corner and he was just mercilessly kicking the shit out of it.

    I walked over there, grabbed his head and slammed it against the brick wall with all my tiny might, I then proceeded to savagly beat him for probably about 5 minutes straight. the dog ran off. After those 5 or so minutes i suddenly stopped and calmly walked the mile or so back to my house, washed my hands and threw away my bloody clothes, and went to bed early.

    the next day i went to school normally. The kid was not there. I never saw that kid again. Nobody ever mentioned him.

    He's Batman now.

    when I was six I hugged a stray cat, but it pooped all over my chest so I had to sneak into my house and throw away my poop shirt before anyone noticed

    well rane i feel like that was the right thing to do
    we had a kid named seth who used to come by every day and throw the biggest rocks he could manage at our saint bernard
    i saw him once and yelled at him to "go away" and then ran inside the house
    i was like 7 and he was 13 or so, so i wasn't going to be any gutsier than that - even after yelling at him he started threatening to beat the crap out of me

    When I was at my grandmother's house there was a slug in the sink. My grandma asked me to throw salt on it so I did.

    I felt like such a filthy murdering killing a helpless creature like that and I became nauseous and lost my appetite.

    When I left the Philippines to go to the US in the middle of third grade, I had to tell the class goodbye, and the nice teacher let me get in front of the class to say goodbye. I ended up crying my eyes out and running out of there and tripping on someone's bag on the way out and can still hear everyone laughing at me on the way out. Not the last time I end up crying in front of a whole room of people

    Secret: There is nothing interesting enough about me to be kept secret.

    When you put two rival schools together in the same area, one half of the kids wearing one type of tie, the other half wearing a different type of tie... well, stuff happens.

    I once stepped on a lizard and crushed it when I was four or five. That made me very sad.

    I ran over a snake with a lawn mower a while ago and watched it as it frantically twitched before it died. Made me incredibly sad, but inspired me to write some music. Come to think of it, I generally write music when I'm sad.

    Secret: In the eighth grade I got a hermit crab as a present for my birthday. A day went by and I became bored of such a creature, so I decided to see how long it could go without food before it died.

    On the 13th day I picked up the shell and it plopped out, lifeless and dull.
