[spoiler]Odd thing. I had this annoying callus-looking blemish on the tip of my left thumb for about a year. It was like a little nodule of uneven skin, or a wart or something weird. I don't remember how I got it. It never went away, even when I left it alone. Sometimes I'd snip it off with nailclippers when it got too big or flaky.

About two weeks ago, I was just fiddling with it. You know, digging at it with a compass or something. I coaxed the nub almost completely free, but it felt really sensitive. But while I was at FNM, I was reaching into my bag for something and it got caught on the edge of something sharp. Suddenly it started bleeding, and I don't mean a just-picked scab bleeding, I mean oops-I-opened-a-vein bleeding. I managed to staunch the bleeding with some kleenexes that remained glued to my thumb for the duration of the night, which, let me tell you, is quite annoying when you're playing cards. A Bandaid was administered later. Normally, the callus-wart thingy would have grown back again by now, but there's no trace of it.[/spoiler]

 :tldr: the wart is gone completely.

Could've been a lipoma.

Considering it was only a millimetre or so in size and never went deeper than the first few layers of skin, I'm guessing no. Also, yuck.

SO! Some lady offered me money to date her daughter. She was serious too. Had the money out and everything. She was trying to haggle with me.
And it wasn't a slight to her daughter. Her daughter was attractive, seemed personable and we had a nice conversation.
The lady kept trying though.
"Listen, she seems great but I-"
"$75 a week."
"I'm just not-"
"$85."
"That's generous, I suppose but-"
"$85 and you can drive my car on dates."
"I'm not comfortable taking money for-"
"So you'll do it for free?"

Lady was gooood. And come on. $85 a week for dating a chick? That's basically what I make breaking my back as a waiter (minus tips).  It'd've been a good gig.

But does this shit happen to anyone else? Things like this happen like once a week.

Are you absolutely sure you're not a Manga protagonist?

Perhaps you should reconsider your choice of profession and just date women for money.

There's another reason to date women?

There is one damn good reason you shouldn't date women for money.

If you think they nag you normally, wait until you are on their payroll.

This is the one thing an anime protagonist is not allowed to have. I would assume no.

No. It doesn't.  In fact, for me, the opportunity to date women doesn't appear at all.  If I were offered money to date an attractive woman, I think the universe itself would implode because it would apparently be breaking some unknown law of physics.

You have to understand. Lottel is one of those people who are naturally minmaxed. His charisma is through the roof, but he's taken the Congenital Deformity flaw.

Yeah, I crumple like paper in battle, but I can totally bend Npcs.

Catloaf it seems the solution is to hang out with me. Maybe I can use these powers for good. Or if Mongrel's theory is true, you'll get turned into a wacky animal.

There's pictures of Lottel somewhere.

I think the pseudo-police blotter description that came to mind was: "Very young yet suave-looking male, of indeterminate ethnicity. Probably about the size and build of a parade marshal's baton."

I'm going to use that next time some one asks me to describe myself.

No, no. It's clearly working for you, don't change it.

Once, a fire engine passed my roommate and I when we were walking home after grocery shopping. "Ha, someone's house is on fire. Hope it's not ours!"

Turned out it was! woops.
