Wierd and wonderful allergies.

A lot of people nowadays like to claim that they have allergies and describe the symptoms in great dramatic detail. I think that I'm allergic to electricity! If I stick my fingers into a wall-socket I get a numbing sensation in my arm. If I press my tongue across the terminals of a 9 volt battery I get a strange sense of taste. Does anyone else have rather unique allergies?

I am allergic to fires, if I stick my hand in one, it goes really red and blisters, its incredibly painful.

stewey, when i jump into a crop of stinging nettles (why are they called that btw, bloody silly name if you ask me?) , i come out in this bumpy rash. I really must stop doing it, its becoming a habit and it hurts! and theres never a dot leaf around when you need one!

I have a slow onset allergy to alcohol,
after about 5 pints my speach goes all funny, then a couple more and my sense of balance goes haywire, after 12 pints, really ugly women start looking like Miss World, add a few whiskey chasers and I want to fight the world.
My doctor is baffled and specialists cant understand it, I think they are goint to call it "johnlambert syndrome"

A friend of mine once claimed that he was allergic to jumping off things: high tree branches, walls, medium bridges. I told him to just do it....the ground will break your fall........He's ok now, I think.

I am allergic to walking, I find it comes on worse when I go to the shops near me which are on a slight incline, the sensation starts at my feet and creeps up my calf muscles and sometimes is so bad I start to hypoventilate and need to sit or lie down upon my return home,.

I can normally alleviate the symtoms by taking the bus home, or buying some chocolate (for medicinal reasons) during my trip.

I don't think my allergy is very unique. I think there's quite a few people around with the same allergy.

I have a terrible allergy to the 'new and improved' SAB. Feel really sick if I venture in there. The only cure for me is to avoid it completely!

Another friend off mine said she was allergic to peanut butter sandwiches. I suggested that she get rid of the bread and butter. She's ok now. I think.

I am allergic to bathing or taking showers. I get all wet and clean and even smell delicious.
