i never eat dessert.
i can not drink alcohol with dinner. i do not think i am wired for it. when i do, neither the food nor the alcohol sits well with me.
i never step on cracks in the sidewalk, or chalk lines when playing baseball or football.
in hockey i always put on my equipment in the same order starting with my cup, left sock and shin guard, then the right, garter belt and i hook in the left sock first, then right, pants and suspenders, left skate, then right, tape the left shin guard first, then right, then shoulder pads left arm first, left elbow pad then right, jersey, helmet, left glove, then right. this is weird to me because i am uber-right handed. i doff the equipment in random order.
i prefer the company of a dog to that of most people.
when you re-string or tune a guitar, most people go in the order of strings 6-5-4-3-2-1. i go 3-4-5-2-6-1. i don't know why, but i always start on the middle strings and work my way to the fat and skinny ones.
nearly every girl i have ever been involved with has initiated meeting me. i rarely seek women out and initiate contact. never had to.
i can recall song lyrics, poetry stanzas, and movie quotes like it is nobody's business, yet i can not remember anything of importance that my girlfriend tells me.
also, i have been working out pretty consistently for the last 5 years. these days, the only reason i go to the gym anymore and lift weights is not because i like it or it feels good, nor for my mental health/moods. i lift because i get to drink a whey protein shake when i am finished. it tastes just like milky froot loop cereal, and it is fucking amazing.... that shake is my ONLY motivation these days... :fp:
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
The first time my bf-at-the-time locked my door behind him he did the bottom lock only - i stood there staring at him and my door in utter confusion and disbelief. So he locked the top lock, which probably just intensified the look of confusion on my face.
Also when opening the door I turn the key the wrong way first. No idea why, I just do.
Dunno wtf it is with me and locks.

After watching a bunch of Kevin Smith Q + As,
I now use the word sir consistently
in everyday conversation.
I also make a point of looking at the floor in elevators
That's all for now-
share with me people!
Cheers.
You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
but does this apply to groups as well?
If you're walking with a bunch of people
do you have to be on the far right of all of them?
Does it apply with kids?
If the person is way shorter than you,
below your eye line,
does it bother you to be on the left?
Just curious!
Cheers.

i don't like certain volume level numbers on my car stereo
7,9, 13, 27 no
but 25 is ok
left leg in underwear first
left sock, right sock
left leg in pants first
left boot, right boot
same with shirts, jackets & coats
left arm, right arm
if i go right first on anyof those items i am confused & feel odd
surprisingly enough i don't give a shit about much of anything
i'd never sit down to eat & not have a glass of water, tea or whatever im drinking
when showering all my scrubbing up & shampooing/conditioning is done in exact order as is my drying off
i never put money in my right front pocket only my left as i have some quartz crystals in my R front pocket. $$$ will not ever be in that pocket, ever
pillows are cold or thrown away or given to homeless junkies
thank goodness i am back on my attention deficit hyperactivity disorder medication. hadn't had any of that stuff since 7th or 8th grade.
seems life is not such a juggling act
y'all should have witnessed me operating my life last year... wow!
i am good at dropping hands fulls of bullshit as i move about freely
anywhere i am/everywhere i go, i accumulate heaps of crap in short order & it drives most ppl including myself, bonkers

Yes, it applies to kids and short people.
It bothers me very much to be on the left. I just don't do it. I have mastered this little move where i swing over to a person's right in a way that makes them seem surprised when i suddenly turn up there, lol. It's second nature to me. It is almost a physical discomfort driving me - myvwhole self feels somehow wrong when i'm walking to the left of people. I do not feel this way about sitting to the left of people though.... although i am a bit particular about my physical orientation when it comes to table arrangement. In restaurants I regularly turn down tables i'm offered by the hostess because it just doesn't feel right to me, or switch tables because I feel a bit weird (those who know me have grown used to this little peculiarity, lol. It's a bit embarrassing, but oh well). Almost like an internal feng shui thing i think, but i can't help it.
Pour vous, mon ami!
Salut.
The only restaurant seating issue I have
is my tendency to take seats that face the wall.
An ex-gf from university days got me into the habit
'cause she liked having her back to the wall
to look out at everyone else.
So I invariably got stuck looking at dime store artwork
and so-called antiques.
Now it's just a habit.
Cheers.

I like (actually, have now come to need) the white-noise aspect of it, plus the air movement.
Another quirk related to sleeping - the open part of my pillowcase must be facing the edge of the bed. I wish I knew what it means!
when you are sleeping in your bunk (& if you have a co-driver) your co-driver is going down the highway, the exhaust pipe stacks are right there on the otherside of the bunkbed. lots of folks use earplugs
yeah i can't sleep in silence, it drives me nuts

As far as sleeping, I too need noise and a fan. And you will never see me sleep with socks on. I can't do it. I've dozed off watching football games and I wake up in a panic because my socks are on. Someone please tell me why....
Just gives me a feeling of security. I usually give it two knocks before I step in the plane.
