Is English your second language, or are you just naturally humourless?
Anglais, c'est mon premiere langue, salaud!  In case you're wondering, French is a pretty close second. I'm still learning it.
And you'd be surprised at how many people I run into that are less humourous than I am. Which, unfortunately, includes my own mother.

Define 'normal' 'cause I've never had any of these. Unless the common cold counts.
Have you ever been to a foreign country?
Don’t ask.

Yes, four or five times. I've been to Canada -- twice. Mexico and Jamaica, so I guess that makes four.
Have you ever moved more than a thousand miles from your home?

If you count military service and deployments, yes. Otherwise as an adult, I've not moved more than 30 miles.

When I was growing up,in the 1950's,the diseases I mentioned WERE normal.
Quote:Have you ever been to a foreign country?
Well, a few. Exactly 20 actually,and roughly 50 cities. Also lived in a foreign country; Malaysia.That may be why I'm so intolerant of anti Islam people; they simply seem ignorant to me .
Have you ever had a really nasty ailment? (as opposed to to an injury) One of the worst I can remember was is shingles,which I had about 3 years ago.
PS do not assume you are the only one with a bit of French.

Yes, I had viral gastroenteritis. It lasted for several months and put me in the hospital more than once. I actually have a lingering heart condition because of it. Fucking stupid.
Have you ever jumped off a trampoline into a pool?

Hell, no - I never had the perfect storm of trampoline, pool, and reckless to do that.
Have you ever been questioned by police in a foreign country?

I've had the opportunity a few times, although I can't remember if I took it.

Oh, I'm not. Suis-je assumer que vous savez un peu de français?
When you were in school (this goes to those who are still in school as well), have you ever skipped class?
Don’t ask.

Oui,un petit peu---
"Salaud" en Anglais= 'bastard','son of a bitch,' n'est ce pas?----If you are going to insult me, have the decency to do so in English, there's a good chap. Otherwise I may think you're serious and say some very unkind things. 
Have you ever stalled your car on a railway line when a train was coming?

No, but I spun out in the middle of a four-way intersection in a blizzard once. I miraculously lived and wound up facing the direction I was going. I thank the unicorns for that one.
Have you ever been on a plane that had such turbulence you thought you were going to die?

The very same thing happened to me on a roundabout and I just continued my journey as if nothing had happened, very slowly it has to be said
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
