Anatomical Anomelies?

[THE QUEEN!!!]

Anyone double jointed? had your thyroid removed? still have your wisdom teeth?

I had my lenses removed when I was 3 so I have absolutely no lenses in my eyes. (I was born with cataracts). I can only see because of expensive contacts (praise heaven for contacts).

Thought this might be fun to find out about each other. Your turn!

[a pretty girl is like]

My left ear is all deformed and stuff.  It's noticeably smaller than the right one and it doesn't have all the proper ridges and things.

Also my birth mark covers pretty much my entire right calf.

I'm perfect. That's what my mommy said.

Ooo i have all of my wisdom teeth too, but after they grew in they kinda screwed up my bottom row of teeth, not too bad but enough to not be perfect anymore...dammit!
anyway welcome!

I think I got my wisdom teeth in, but I never had them removed. Same with my appendix and tonsils. (As far as I know.)

Not paying someone to rip your wisdom teeth out is now considered a physical abnormality? Can I get one of those handicapped parking things on my rear-view?

[RobtheBarbarian]

I don't have any wisdom teeth in my bottom jaw. I didn't get them removed - they never existed. The dentist showed me an x-ray and you can see the non-grown-in wisdom teeth in the upper jaw, but no matching pair on the bottom.

Clearly I was experimented on by aliens and my memory of the experience was wiped.

You can have one of those "handicapped parking things" but for you it would be completely legit.

My jaw sometimes pops out of place a little bit, and i have to stick my fingers in my ears and push it back in.

Does my headache count as an anatomical anomaly?  If not, I'm double-jointed at the elbows.  If so... ehh, still double-jointed.  Trust me, when I was a cheerleader, it creeped out plenty of my teammates.  But it took me a couple years to learn what my definition of "straight arms" was thanks to that anomaly.

End of Sept 2007, I developed an ulcer on my left eye's cornea resulting in a noticeable white dot on the dead center of my pupil.  I went to the doctor's every day for 3 weeks until it eventually stopped corroding.  I had to quit my job and couldn't find work till 6 months later.  Time seemed to slow down.  Releases between RiffTrax seemed longer.  I started looking for upcoming titles which ultimately led to me joining the forum.  That is why I am here to this day.

I was born with a second set of nipples a few inches below the standard ones. During periods of high stress, they secrete a viscous, lemon-scented fluid that is highly toxic to felines.

Holy hell, that sounds terrible. Is there a name for that? I want to do some research on it now. As someone whose main tools for work are his eyeballs, and a person who reads as much as I can, the idea of having a problem with my eyes (besides my already-horrible vision) is something I'm perpetually frightened of.

Don't worry, torgos.  My problem was I didn't worry enough.  I went to an eye doc but just gave up on the meds he gave me.  My eyes were red for the following 6 months.  And I wore contacts on top of that.  The previous two days (before I fell out of my bed in agony one early morning with the ulcer) my eyes would not stop watering and reddened SO bad.  And I may or may not have been using a recalled eye contact solution.  The odds of a corneal ulcer are 1:5,000 (even more to have it on the bull's-eye).  I had to call a doctor in Florida cuz no doctor in Alabama had ever seen something like this before.  So like I said, don't worry about it happening to you.  Instead, you should worry about stuff like this instead.

I can dislocate my thumb at the knuckle at will with no pain.
