The first time I realized not everyone felt that was after I went bungee jumping and people thought I was nuts, I asked them You mean you never get the urge to jump off a balcony or something? and they looked at me like I fell off the moon.

I usually don't read trip reports, but since I clicked your link I can't stop reading. Simply awesome!

I never had such an urge. Cannot relate to the story. If anything, I stay far far away.

When I was in 5th grade, we used a censored version of the gemara. It only had the 3rd perek of baba kama. Everything else was censored.
