My wife and I used to joke that I could eat whatever I wanted with no weight gain. Which is true.

In November, I was sedated with Jackson Juice (Propofol) for an epidural. I was fully conscious, but was VERY relaxed. I was being monitored for pulse, O2 sat, BP. During the procedure, the anastesiologist had to give me an extra dose of the JJ to keep me sedated. I know this (man) because I heard him say it with some amount of surprise. When it was done and I went back out to my family, the anastesiologist was leaving the building and he told my wife how surprised he was. "Your husband has a very high metabolism!"

Confirmed.

Fast forward one month.

I'm in the recovery room after my spinal fusion. I was under general anastesia for this one. The surgeon talks to my wife and tells her that they had to give me an extra dose of the general to keep me under.

Seconded.

Any of you have any interesting physical attributes or abnormalities?

We are each as unique as snowflakes.

3/13/2012 7:52:39 PM

that's a lot of words just to tell us you have a high metabolism

3/13/2012 7:52:46 PM

I'm white.

3/13/2012 7:52:53 PM

It's not so much a physical attribute but more of a mental one. I work at a college as a janitor even though I feel like I'm smarter than most of the people who go there. Sometimes I see an equation written on a blackboard like half an equation and... I just figure it out.

3/13/2012 7:55:07 PM

I usually try to keep this to myself, but....

This nigga sure types a lot to say a little

poison ivy does minimal harm to me

3/13/2012 7:58:37 PM

Food cycles through me in 8-12 hrs vs 24 hrs for most people.

^jealous. I'll break out in a rash just putting my arm on the window sill of my work truck

Come on, son. £20m to sit at a bar with a bowl and microscope to look at snowflakes?

huge penis

3/13/2012 8:01:49 PM

Judging by the photogallery of the OP, I wouldn't have gone with "high metabolism."

I would have gone with "bald"

3/13/2012 8:08:52 PM

Maybe his body burns hair faster.

3/13/2012 8:13:17 PM

Mr. Joshua I have missed you

3/13/2012 8:14:42 PM

^^Could be. Although, once his metabolism slows down, he won't just be bald. He'll be fat, too.

So, you know...something to look forward to.

High metabolism = inefficient digestive system

3/13/2012 8:16:14 PM

I think Eric fell in love with me when I put a whole popsicle in my mouth.

3/13/2012 8:22:31 PM

3/13/2012 8:23:54 PM

Samwise16, I hate to be the one to break this to you....

but I was talking to your fiance yesterday, and he told me that he hates you. He doesn't want to get married anymore. I know this is tough, so I'd like to offer you my lap to cry on. Come on, let's hug it out...

3/13/2012 9:34:22 PM

Neither pepper spray or cs gas really bother me at all.

i experience minor irritation that feels sorta like a light sunburn, but that's all it does to me.

I am opposite of op. I have an incredibly slow metabolism and it sucks butt.

3/13/2012 9:40:34 PM

clinodactyly right here! curved fingers.

i can also squirt liquids out of my nose easily because of a small fistula in the roof of my mouth from cleft palate repair.

i can also touch my elbows together behind my back.

My spine is really flexible. I can scurry in a bridge all Exorcist style
