Hi everyone, i would like to know what makes you stand out from your immediate environment. It could be something physical or a feature that qualifies you.
I’ll go first, i have quite large feet from years of moving around barefooted and while growing up, i had to have shoes custom made as most of the good ones were made in general sizes only, i still have trouble getting shoes.
I’m currently taller and very much paler than those who grew up in this area.
I don’t know what the reason is, but I have a large friend group of almost exclusively males, and I am a respected, listened to female, who can easily command the room. I can also deadlift twice my body weight.
Shit, that’s an impressive deadlift
Thank you, it was worth the crucial muscle groups sacrifice.
Nothing. I avoid going outside as much as possible and I’m wearing earbuds all the time. So people leave me alone.
I’m Asian and live in rural Oregon.
I don’t know what part of the US Oregon is but i imagine Asians would always stand out in rural places
i just let out a giant fart
I’m very beautiful
Oh my
Nice try, NSA.
I have been told multiple different times by a number of different people that I have an attractive clavicle and shoulders.
Right now? I’m a 6’2" pasty white guy in Asia (or Casper per my favourite overheard discussion).
I’ve got vulcan eyebrows
Like this guy?
More to the sides, but yes.
That must be majestic.
I’m constantly making yipping noises and grinning because I’m an autistic fox 🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊
I have been told, on multiple occasions, that I have a strong sense of justice. Somehow I doubt that’s a good thing, as all it’s done is get me in trouble.
Also have been told that I have a voice for radio. I was born about twenty years too late for that to be relevant, I always reply. “Start a podcast!” they say. I tell them I tried and it failed because I can read from a script great, but I have zero ability to be witty.
This sounds like something you could fix with practice. Maybe try reading books out loud. People with pleasant voices can also make audio books, although I don’t know how much they pay.
Yes, me too! The justice part. I am very principled. And it is something that I, sometimes (?) hate about myself. I think it mostly drives people away.
I figure many people on Lemmy are the same in that regard, very principled people.
Are you vegan?
No, but I (kinda) get it.
You should submit voice samples to casting agencies that land voice over talent for commercials, and other media formats.
You don’t need an agent or anything of the sort to get started, just a decent sample of your vocal work.
Get it submitted wherever you can, you’ll never know what might come of it.
I was a post production supervisor in Los Angeles for a bit. I worked with VO talent, many of whom had entirely separate careers.
One guy was a bus operator & rode his bus to the studio after shift change. He was awesome.
My beard
Existing.
I can basically ride a bicycle forever as long as I eat and drink enough, until the lack of sleep overwhelmes me.
People keep commenting on how extremely fit I must be.
But honestly, if you find the right pace it’s like a brisk walk, and if your bike and your clothes fit, it’s more comfortable than that.I would think the environment factors into that a lot too. I’ve had 30 mile rides kick my ass more than 80 mile rides due to things like hills and wind. But put me on a stationary bike and I could probably go 150+ miles in a day.
You must have Dutch blood.
I actually do. I participated in a 1-day 250km group ride in the Netherlands recently. But I did it on easy mode with a road bike, there were people riding a traditional baker’s bike (including the box) while wearing wooden clogs.
I don’t think I ever saw someone wear clogs there. Bicycling on an omafiets/opafiets is the way to do it.
