weird things you do

Ok, one more to add:

If I pick my toes to get the junk out, scratch my ass, or touch my underamrs - I have to smell my fingers. I don't know why. I guess it is my body and if it smells bad, well, it's all natural. This could cue me to wash my hands, but I usually don't.

-I must have a book when taking a [censored]. Even if I can tell it's only going to be a quick 30 second one - I must have a book. If I am in a location where no books or reading material is available, I will wait.

I have this problem, sometimes I will delay an agonizingly long time to go if I know I'm in the middle of a good book at home, like if I have to go at work during the middle of the day, I'll put it off for hours until I get home.

Lately I've taken to hiding magazines in the washroom at work just so I'll have something in there to read, though. It's going to suck when they're discovered, though, because I'm the only one in the office likely to be reading Card Player or Golf Digest.

I print out articles from Card Player online to read on the bowl at work. Hint - paste text into Word for easier printing and decreased detectability.

[/ QUOTE ]

I print 2+2 articles or some other online goodies. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Yes, Word is key.

Also, whenever I"m on my computer at home, I must be barefoot and absent-mindedly pick at my toenails.

When I sleep I'll realize I'm dreaming then I change things in my dream. Like make a cool car appear and drive it around or fly around my dream world. Sometime I just make people appear and then disappear. When I was a kid I would panic and think I would never wake up. Now if I want to wake up I close my eyes in my dream and wake up in bed.

1. If something in the microwave is done before the time is up, I wait until there's a number that's a multiple of five left before opening the door.

2. I epilate my underarms. This is fairly painful, and several hairs are coarse enough to cause bleeding when they're plucked. Shaving would be faster and painless, but for some reason I really enjoy epilating there.

3. I don't shave my legs. I think this makes #2 a bit more strange.

4. I am contantly playing out emergency scenarios in my head. This morning on the subway, I imagined what would happen if the woman across from me had a seizure. I think about what I would do and how the other people around would react. Who, if anyone, would go to her? Who would notify the conductor of the situation? I would put my wallet in her mouth between her teeth, I think. The emergencies usually do not involve me being in danger unless I'm crossing the street. When I'm crossing the street, I imagine what it would be like to be hit by a car. My head would whip back or to the side, I think, and my mouth would be flung open.

When at least 15-20 minutes into my self rambling I stop and wonder how I got onto that topic. I try to backtrack through the 6 or 7 previous topics and see how they're associated, to figure out how that line got started and where it derived from. Once I've made the connections, I quickly go through list in the correct chronolgical order (I was thinking about A, which led me to B ..... G). Phew! Now I'm at peace. Back to the rambling.

junt monkey pooping - I squat on top of the bowl - feet on the bowl - for #2. It's actually much healthier and easier. Sadly, at work I don't do this (except one time when the janitor let me into the private handicapped bathroom). Used to take all my clothes off, but now I can leave my shirt on.

[/ QUOTE ]

I do the "monkey pooping" sometimes, especially in the winter. I did it more when I lived alone.

[DukeSucks]

A lot of times I sleep like I'm in a coffin. On my back with my arms crossed on my chest. I usually lay still enough that arms get numb before I fall asleep.

I also imagine myself doing destructive things. If I'm in a store with a bunch of fragile things, I think about running around with a baseball bat.

[JuntMonkey]

Does it count that I'm about to watch an episode of Dallas on DVD?

Once in junior high school the class s1ut was sitting in the chair (one of those with a plank at the mid-back area and two poles at the ends) in front of me and leaning forward and so her as$crack was showing and she did this for about 2 minutes. Of course I develop a huge hardon and suddenly she turns around and down with a blank look and faces my crotch. Strange thing is I don't think she saw it as she didn't have any reaction at all.

junior high male gets a boner looking at a girl's ass? damn, that's CRAZY!!

When a passenger of a car, I'll look out the window, and imagine a big stick figure running on top of the trees or buildings or whatever is outside.

Wow, I spent alot of time doing this as a kid from the backseat of the minivan. Mostly I imagined the guy doing acrobatic things on the utility lines.

[/ QUOTE ]

I see the guy running, or vaulting from fence post to fence post.

This thread is fantastic, I feel like 30% more sane having read it.

I did all of these as a kid, but I had forgot about it until reading this thread.

As a kid if I tapped my left hand 4 times on a desk or something I would have to "balance" this out by doing it with the right hand. It applied for basically any moment I did with my hands/arms. I think somebody had mentioned something like this. Luckily I'm over this one now.

I have trouble with the embarassing moments on TV thing, but it must be reality TV to bother me. Sitcoms situations don't make me uncomfortable.

I uncontrollable shake my legs a lot when I'm sitting down. It's not because I'm nervous. I don't know why I do it, but I've done it my entire life.

I grind my teeth in my sleep.

Sometimes when I'm by myself I will just freeeze and find my self mentally unable to move. Everytime I want to move I have this huge urge to stay absolutely still. This can go on for maybe 1-6 minutes at a time, it's almost like I just want to see how long I can stay still for and the longer I go, the harder it is to break out of eventually. of course I can never do this in front of people so if I hear someone coming I instantly snap out of it as it would be quite awkward to be sitting absolutely still and unresponsive with someone there. Sometimes I'm allowed to move my eyes, other times not.

[astroglide]

similar to that, when i was a kid i used to semi-intentionally space out after riding in a car when it got to its destination.
