What quality do you have that seperates you from everyone else...
Like not just in your group of friends or people you know...but what about you do you think sets you apart from everyone else in the world.
I only ask because I'm watching a show right now that talks about super humans, ordinary people that have an extraordinary quality...and it got me thinking that yeah, everyone is different, but when you think about it, everyone is quite a bit the same too...
This show says that on average everyone has 3 mutations in their genetics...do you have anything that make you truly unique? 7/17/2011 9:37:52 PM |

i think that given approximately 6 billion people that while everyone may not have the same multiple problems at least. so nothing makes me truly unique 7/17/2011 9:43:29 PM |

I doubt this is unique, but I've not met anyone else who can pull back the tip of their tongue, which makes it look like there are two tips side by side. Sort of like its forked, but then if I stop pulling with that muscle of whatever, it goes right back to normal.
And then, if I pull back the tip as I've just described, and make the U shape that a lot of people can do, and then roll it up and hook it up on the back of my teeth, those 3 things combine to make a multilayered shape that my friends say is a vagina tongue.

What matters is where the mutations are and what gene products are affected.. you could have an extra X chromosome and still be a relatively normal male but if you have a tiny piece of a certain chromosome missing, it could rock your world

My legs can bend in a certain way, that I've seen many other people come close to doing when I show them what I'm doing, but they can never do it as far or without straining. What I gain in flexibility in that way I lose in trying to sit indian style, which is something I've never been able to do without straining.

Three functional mutations makes a difference.
Scientists once thought that humans and mice shared 80% of their genes. They found out last year that they hadn't found all the functional mice genes. This makes us significantly less related than 80%.
It's still going to be higher than most would think because we are both mammals. 7/17/2011 11:25:28 PM |

I have often found in life that the ones who wish to be remarkable are the ones who couldn't be more ordinary, yet the ones who simply wish to be "normal" couldn't be more exceptional.

At least once a week, someone will come up to me and say, "HI {insert random name}! SO GOOD TO SEE YOU! How's {so-and-so} doing? Did you enjoy {random recent activity}?

Or maybe they have the right person and you have periods where you black out and are a different personality
