Do You have any Weird or Unusual Quirks?

I been an Auto Mechanic for 30 years I’m always diagnosing sounds and smells of all cars on the road lol

 

You sound like me, I'm a retired farmer and whenever I see an outfit in a field I'm checking out what kind of job he's doing.

 

Reading your post reminded me i do have a strange quirk, i dont like condiments. Aside from bbq sauces. No mayo, mustard or ketchup for me. I do like pickles though.

 

I can eat peanuts, pecans, almonds, cashews and so on by them selves no problem. I do not like any kind of nut in my food or dessert. I think it's a texture thing.....

 

So you saw through my evil plan, eh?

 

Same here. I visited bladeforum once or twice and decided to just never go back. I will occasionally browse bladehq and if I see a sprint run Paramilitary 2 coming out I’ll troll around till it releases and buy it.

Current EDC’s:
Damascus Endura 4
ZT 0562Ti
Paramilitary 2 with Ti scales (I was stupid and bought the black blade, don’t like it because the opening action is too numb)
Regular Paramilitary 2 that I either lost or gave away
M4 steel Para 3 that I lost (it’s in the house just don’t know where)
M4 steel Military

Used to buy nothing but Kershaw. Probably gave most of those away to friends.

 

She: "We're out of TP."
Me: "No we're not, we have plenty."
She: "Can you please put it all in the bathroom?"
Me:

 

Yes! Someone else who understands this! I've always been like this as well. Some socks have a small slant; some of them have a serious slant. Regardless...if it slants to the right, it gets worn on the right foot. I mean, I truly don't understand why others DON'T think about it like this. *shrug* LOL

Another quirk, and I don't know anyone else who does this....I don't drink soda (or any canned drink) normally. I drink it out of the side of my mouth. LOL!

There's a legit and somewhat normal reason though. In the Navy, I was in the Naval Nuclear Power Training School...and we had to study a LOT. (I'm talking 5 hours a night, 35 hours a week.) Enough so that I literally didn't want to stop for such mundane things as food and drink. So I ended up bringing my food with me....and drinking out of the side of my mouth was how I was able to drink liquids without blocking the study material.

 

I've got a few more.

• I pay my credit card multiple times each month. I hate having a big balance. I've never paid a single penny of CC interest in my life.
• I hate having a low battery on my cell phone. I rarely let it get below 50%.

 

2 lil' ones i left out, but i'm right there with you!

 

I'd do bad things for a jar of pickles and olives the bf thinks I'm weird because I'll just eat a bowl of pickles and olives for a snack.

 

I go to sleep with the tv on I got the complete dvd set of King of Queens I been watching it every night for the last 4 years and if I stay up and that disk finish I start it over again I Switch to a different disk every week theirs 9 disk and about 7-10 episodes on a disk prior to this was friends on Netflix prior to friends was Men in black prior to that was Rush hour prior to that was Con Air

 

Geez, where do I start? I only want white hangars in my clothes closet, knives go on one side of the utensil rack in the dishwasher, all other silverware on the other side. Nobody but me is allowed to wash my cast iron pans, or touch (use) my very expensive knife set. When I exit my RV for a day on the lake, I always have to stop, go back inside and double check the air temp, touch all the knobs on stove to make sure they are off, and do a double push to make sure the door is closed. If I do not do this, I am a nervous wreck and can't even make it to the boat dock. I never turn my truck off before turning off the radio and air conditioner, and my sun shade must be put up regardless if it's sunny or raining. When I get gas, i need always make sure to round up and end on the next dollar. I could go on and on, sometimes my OCD makes my wifey crazy!

 

Add Futurama and Parks And Rec to your lineup.

 

Those are both really good habits! If more people did this it would be a better world!

 

My wife is exactly like this. She's a nurse; and I often joke that her dream job is an occupational health nurse in a pickle factory.

My wife got me some new Nike socks that have L and R embroidered on them. Amazing!!!!







Until she puts them in the drawer with two Rights as a pair....

 

I have these. They check so many boxes.

 

I can't have tomato and ketchup on at the same time. It's either one or the other.

 

Whenever I travel I bring my own set of sheets and blanket. First thing I do when I enter a hotel room is rip all the bedsheets off and throw them into the corner of the room, and then install my own sheets.

 

Anyone else find that when you have to pee in the middle of the night, if you're dreaming, even in the dream you have to pee just before you wake up? I've started to notice this. For example, last night in my dream I had to go really bad and was looking for a place to go (for some reason I was in a building that I didn't know, yet strangely felt familiar). Once I found a restroom and started to pee, I woke up. On my way to the bathroom I thought "If I hadn't woke up, would I have just peed in bed?"

 

Just wait until you get older! And you will also truly understand the saying, "Never trust a fart!"

 

Bringing this thread back from the dead.

When I get a bag of chips I crush them into little pieces and just tilt the bag into my mouth so I don't have to get my fingers dirty and clean up crumbs afterward. I also HAVE to sit on at least one leg for some reason.. I get uncomfortable letting my legs dangle or putting both feet on the floor.

 

Does the leg sitting have to happen while driving too?

 

No, but I do get uncomfortable after about an hour. If it was safe sitting like that while driving I probably would.

 

My wife loves cream cheese but refuses to eat it on toast, only on toasted bagels.

 

Your wife is correct.

 

I love the cold, i have my AC on at 430 in the morning when its 45 degrees out. I wear shorts outside in the snow in the mountains, but i cant sleep without every inch of my body covered with a blanket, besides my head, no matter how warm it is.

 

Same here. I rarely ever use my tunny floor vents. I wore shorts in Anchorage when the sun would come out at 30 degrees after being minus 10 the day before. Heat wave.
