Things you do that other people think are weird.

[aba1]

I don't trust people until I know whats wrong with them.

That's actually some solid advice.

OT: I guess this thing works both ways, but apparently I'm the only one of my male friends (whom I've had this conversation with) that doesn't jerk it to other, female, friends.

I don't do that I mean thats kinda a weird thing to do. Can't people just be friends with someone of the opposite gender without trying to or wanting to have sex with them. I don't get it sometimes.

Well one time me and a few mates of my went to a Chinese buffest and along the way I had ice cream for dessert.
I pretty much show them what I do when it come to flavours like chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, I scoop an equel amount of the three, use the spoon to stir and mix the three together to become a light brown icecream that is taste of all of the three. One of them found that to be werid.
The reason why I did it in the first place is that my dad tend to pick the Neapolitan ice cream tub (which contain those three in one tub) and I hate picking toward one flavour the most.

Hmmm....

The way I clean raw chicken, I rinse it over water while rubbing it with a lime or lemon (get crazy stares), but apparently most people just drain the chicken juice out the pack and cook it.

I don't drink because I don't like the taste.

I don't find bacon or ranch to be anything spectacular.

I perform in a rock band (I'm black, and I always get crazy stares. No one has ever heard of Jimmi Hendrix? Tina Turner? Chuck Berry?)

I drink mostly water or tea. No juice, soda, etc. Coffee, occasionally.

I can identify songs from a great amount distance by the subtle muffled pattern of the beats, and I am almost always right. (something I'm proud of )

 

[Strazdas]

Dude, are you my doppelganger?
EVERYTHING you just said, goes for me. Even the 'Fat' part...

Is it a thing with us, Lithuanians?

A fellow lithuanian on escapist that doesnt hate me! YOU WEIRD!
Ok, seriuosly though, that feels glamoring now, and i needed a pickup as i just got stonewalled by a girl couple minutes ago heh.

Oh you American English Speaking nations... You do make me laugh!

English..........................US butchered spanglish
Chips.............................Fries
Crisps...........................Chips
Biscuits.........................Cookies
Pavement......................Sidewalk
Carpark..........................Parking Lot
Aluminium......................Aluminum
Undrinkable Rats' Piss....Beer
Beer..............................(No alternative) (Although considering your nationality you may have good beer... I can't say I have tried Lithuanian beer though! )

I jest fella... but I did mean what you probably call French Fries, or fries over there... Don't know why many European countries learn American and not English considering the proximity, but I imagine it's something to do with the damn media and TV! :/

orry, my language was ravaged by dirty americans in MMOs.
Let me fix that a bit though:

English..........................US butchered spanglish.................Common sense language
Chips.............................Fries................................................Potatoes. You know, becuase they are made otu of potatoe. Sometimes we call them Potatoes FRI, because apperently that came from french.
Crisps...........................Chips..........................................A potato chip. YOu know, because you chip potatoes for it.
Biscuits.........................Cookies........................................Biscuits and cookies ARE DIFFERENT THINGS
Pavement......................Sidewalk.......................................Pavement is also part of the road where cars drive. We just call them "Pedestrian road", because its a place for pedestrians to walk.
Carpark..........................Parking Lot....................................Car parking lot. its a lot meant to park cars.
Aluminium......................Aluminum....................................Aliuminium
Undrinkable Rats' Piss....Beer.................................................drink for low social class who cant afford better.
Beer..............................(No alternative) (Although considering your nationality you may have good beer... I can't say I have tried Lithuanian beer though! )................................................Beer here is beer, some good, some bad, all taste like rats piss if you ask me.

Well i cant speak about many europeans, but here i was taught real english at school, but i learn far more playing MMOs and talking to americans there, so my language is a mixed bag of american/english hybrids. i also though WEIRD was spelled WIERD for the longest time....

 

[BarbaricGoose]

Shocked is a bit of an exaggeration.

OP: I have a habit of not finishing my sentences and assuming that the other person will psychically know how it...

...arms? Is it arms? "Psychically know how it arms." Well that doesn't make very much sense. You should know better.

Let's see here..

I've had a cough for the last year or so that seems to react to milk, but it's apparently not a milk allergy. I've had all sorts of tests, x-rays, etc, and for some reason I feel fine. Plus, I've not died yet. I'm beginning to think this cough will just take me in my sleep, or in a horribly painful, yet quick, fit of spasms and drool one day. Or maybe I'll just have a chronic cough for the rest of my life.

Or, maybe, I died when I was younger. When I was about 8, I wanted to do a sweet back flip to dismount off a swing, and after beginning my back flip, I realized that I didn't know how to do a back flip. So I landed on my head with a mouth full of dirt. Maybe this is all a figment of my imagination, and my mind is subconsciously trying to get me to let go and die like in that movie [REDACTED]. Oops, spoiler. Never mind.

I also have a burping thing, but I can control that, so people don't notice.

Yeah. It's weird.

 

[Dirge Eterna]

Well, every friend that I've told the fact that I'm a chubby chaser thinks it's just bizarre. Does that count?

Nothing wrong with that. I prefer women with substance. Last time I had sex with a super skinny girl it literally hurt my pelvis.

 

[Dirge Eterna]

Play games that aren't GTA V or COD:BLOPS II. Hell, I mention Saints Row and my co-workers give me blank stares. I don't even bothering mentioning more obscure games like Spec Ops: The Line or adventure games.

I read novels and history books. For fun, even.

I don't care about any sports or sports teams at all. I've met numerous people who repeatedly fail to grasp this concept.

I don't enjoy parties. I've tried. I've really tried. I've let people drag me to parties to humor then but after I've eaten enough and a drink or two and made some small talk, I'm done. Like within an hour. And then I leave because I'm bored out of my fucking skull. Or I stick around for the sake of someone else and then I'm even more bored because I've long since lost interest.

I am very similar. Most of the games I play aren't common games. I read for fun a lot and it seems like people think I am crazy or off. I had one guy say dude why not watch the movie? Because the book is a 100% better and has more detail and fluffs out the story more! The only sport I can even sorta get into is Hockey and thats mostly because my 6 year old loves it and plays hockey in a league.

I hate parties, I don't drink or do drugs so being sober is boring as hell when surrounded by people fucked up. I end up being the driver all the time and in charge of herding my wife and friends out of trouble. Sometimes I luck out and encounter someone who is interesting to talk to and usually also sober.

 

[Psychobabble]

One of my favorite snacks is a small bowl of uncooked white rice, instant or regular. I also love to eat the unpoped popcorn kernels at the bottom of the bowl, friends think I'm mental for doing both.

 

[lechat]

Edit: Oh, I thought of another one. When I sneeze my forearms hurt. Sometimes only slightly, sometimes so bad I have to stop whatever I am doing for a few seconds while I recover. But that is rare. Usually it just aches a bit for a second.

never heard anyone else say that.
sometimes when i sneeze my elbows and/or wrists hurt so bad i am nearly in tears, within a few seconds the feeling fades but most of the time i can just sneeze happily without any pain.

That sounds like it'd hurt your teeth XD

Undrinkable Rats' Piss....Beer

You have drinkable rat's piss in Britannia land?

What sick perverted experiments on rats are you doing? XD

Yeah I get that reaction from most people. Oddly enough it doesn't hurt. Though keep in mind my friend's nickname for me is "Old Horse Face."

 

[Autumnflame]

i eat chips like cheetos and such with chopsticks so i dont get the dust on my fingers

 

[balfore]

I've been told the way I eat chicken wings is weird. I eat individual chunks and dip them in a sauce instead of shoving the whole thing down my throat like my contemporaries.

 

[AdrianCeltigar]

Whenever I'm listening to music and my hands are free I'll tap away to the music as if I'm playing the piano... but I switch parts all the time and have my own bizarre systems in place for indicating various things in any given song such as volume, cymbals, octave changes that I'm too lazy to move my hands further away for, vibrato, etc etc. I tend to play along to whichever part of the song is prevalent at any given time so I'll go from the melody of the vocals to the bass, harmony or rhythm, and back and forth between them all the time. If you actually put a keyboard under my hands it would sound terrible. I've done this for so long now that I do it unconsciously whenever my hands are free: riding a bike, sitting at a table, operating the power-jacks at work...
