weird things you do

[Hollywade]

Regarding the comment about weighing yourself after taking a dump, I don't remember actually doing this. However, I do take prodigious dumps that often confound and amaze both myself and my friends. I took a picture of one. I'm the only person I know who has repeatedly plugged toilets without the use of toilet paper. I'm not sure how the people who monitor this forum would feel about a picture of a turd, so I'll spare you. Just trust me though, for a 165 pound guy, I drop some tree trunks.

Other weird things:

-Whenever I order from a fast food place, the first thing I do upon receiving my drink is push down all of the little buttons on the lid.

-I always sleep with a fan on, even in winter. The noise is soothing and helps put me to sleep.

-I write down literally everything that comes to mind regarding something I have to do in fear of forgetting it. This includes the most minor, inane details such as "get gas."

-I have monitored every cent that I have made and spent for about five years. I started doing this because it seemed like I was spending way too much money and I wanted to keep track of what I was buying.

-I am a huge statistics dork and I have a record of every golf and bowling score of mine dating back to 2001.

One more for me...

• If I microwave something, and I feel it needs a minute of heating, I will put it in for 66 seconds. If I feel it needs about a minute and a half, I will put it in for 1:33. This probably started as an attempt to streamline the microwave process, because typing in 6+6 was much faster than typing in 1+0+0. And for a minute and a half, it was faster and easier to just type 1+3+3, rather than 1+3+0, because my finger was already on the 3, so I could just double push and not waste time repositioning my finger for the 0. Brilliant huh?

You know, for a 1:33, you can push "93" and save yourself a keystroke. Or I guess, "99", since your finger is already on the button.

i hate odd numbers and change

if i dont smoke weed i feel sick to my stomache and get a headache

i will listen to a song i like over and over when i first hear it usually like 12 times in a row or something

i sort the money in my wallet by denomination and turn them all the same way

Wow! One less keystroke, PLUS a double-push!! I can't believe I never thought of that before. This is revolutionary - thank you.

wow i do 50% of the stuff in this thread . guess most of this stuff aint weird and is quite normal.

Also wiping your ass while still sitting is sick as you get more p00 particles on your hand/arm.and u have to actually reach inside the toilet bowl, eww.

This thread makes me feel a little saner. SO many things mentioned that I do: play-by-play for video games, talk to myself, etc. Others of note...

1) Add my name to the "can't watch awkward situations on TV" list. The British version of "The Office" most immediately comes to mind.

2) I compulsively straighten. If there are, say, three pens on a desk, I will move them into a neat, organized pattern; all facing the same direction vertically and horizontally and evenly spaced, for instance.

3) If I have control over the numerical outcome of a situation - the TV volume or amount of an item purchased - it HAS to be one of a certain group of numbers. This includes 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 18, 20, 22, 23, 25, 30, 35, 36, 40, 42, 47... there's no overall pattern, but I just "know" when the number's "wrong." I've gotten better about it in recent years, mostly because I was driving my wife nuts.

4) I pay attention to the minutia of sports uniforms and logos on a fanatical level. Luckily I've discovered Paul Lukas' UniWatch blog and his occasional articles on ESPN.com; it's good to know I'm not alone.

Wow this is a great one. How did I forget to include this?? I do it too.

My numbers have to be even, or multiples of 5.

eg: 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 26, 28, etc.

actually, now that I think about it, I don't think I use the numbers that end in "6". I would round down to 15/25, or up to 18,28.

I have no idea what level 19...23...etc. sound like, lol.

Sometimes (this started back in high school, I think) if I'm in a meeting or (was) sitting in class, I would write totally insane [censored] on a piece of paper right in front of me, usually about people in the room. Only I would write in print, capital letters, every letter written over top of the previous one so noone could look over my shoulder and see. Stuff like:

I WANT TO UZI THIS [censored] IDIOT AND THE REST OF THESE TOOLS FOR BEING SUCH SHEEP HAVE A [censored] BACKBONE.

or

JESUS CHRIST THIS CHICKS [censored] ARE INCREDIBLE I WISH SHE WAS NAKED INSTEAD OF TALKING.

Amazing threads ftw.
