Hmm, in my family it's the curse of being loud. My mom and little sister always talk loud...especially on the phone. My dad has the tendancey to speak loudly about embarassing things, which is all the time. As for me, I'm the odd ball in the family and is usually quiet, but when I start talking, I tend to be loud.

My sister and dad constantly fight for the dominant Alpha of the pack position. It gets quite deafening at times.

I've also had trouble with my mother on that one, Psi, but physically, it would have to be sweat.
Take the normal amount of sweat a person would get in exertion, and then multiply it by about 10 times.
Really puts a strech on hiking trips.

Mental instability.

My father has ten brothers and sisters, and all of them have problems. Only one of them had a problem that was ever diagnosed and treated (alcoholism), but honestly, I consider him one of the lucky ones. Some of the others are absolutely F.U.B.A.R.

I do know that my family on my father's side has a rich history that can be traced all the way back to the pilgrims, and supposedly, another one of my uncles was interested in the family history enough to try and trace it back. According to my father, he did make it back to the Mayflower, but he came across criminals, psychopaths, a pirate captain, an 18th century terrorist, and other "gifted individuals" along the way. Supposedly, he traced it further all the way back to Scottland where the family name originates, but whatever he found there was so bad he hasn't even spoken of it to anyone.

Woo, pirates!

All the women in my family have at one point dreamed about looking into the sky and seeing a lot of flying things(though what they see varies).
My grandmother saw airplanes, my aunt saw dragons, my mom saw dinosaurs, I think somebody else saw hot air balloons....
and I saw superheros. lol

being stubborn mexicans is my family's curse. you should meet my family. like my grandma, oh man!

also, many people on my dad's side have had depression. that's always a bummer.

my family also has a few mild mental tics, forgetfulness, stubborness, and those little things that shouldn't matter to people, but for some reason do

nachoboy- Oi! I almost forgot to mention that just about all of the male members of my family (including me) are "thickheads". We usually don't give a damn about what other poeple say and do things "our way". Really sets the mood for some dangerous moments.

I can relate. I apparently got SPD (Schizoid Personality Disorder) out of the insanity grab bag. To the best of my knowledge, I'm the only one in the family, but in terms of my family, SPD just means I'm the only rockhead in the family that doesn't put an effort into ruining Thanksgiving.

Hrm...

No offence meant, I just couldn't help me but imagine a were 'sweating' that much. Take the normal panting pace of a werewolf would get in exertion, and then mutliply it by about 10 times?

Yeah, and that's only the *normal* exertion.

There is some history of Alzheimer's disease on my mother's side, but my father's side include smokers who never get cancer or lung problems.

Oh - my personal curse, inherited from my father - feet with a stench from the very depths of hell. Thankfully I have foot powder to combat this affliction.

Actually I have something far worse in my family besides the ADD and depression. I just remembered that both sides of my family get skin cancer a lot, also my dad's side is notorious for heart disease and high blood pressure.

Fang · Post by **Fang** » Thu Oct 26, 2006 7:39 pm

my fathers' side is also prone to baldness at an early age, glad my hair is from my mom's side
