Yeah, I sometimes do that, too. When I was a kid, I think I just did it to climb up stairs faster and it just stuck with me over the years.Secret world leader (shhh) said:On-topic: Not paticularly weird, impractical though. Sometimes I run up the stairs like this:

Is that insane? I don't know. It might be, but who am I to judge? I also have a very specific order in which I wash in the shower (face with soap, hair with shampoo, body with shower gel), I can't watch a TV show or read a book series (comic books are a nightmare for this)unless I can begin from the very first installment/episode, and sometimes I get sexual enjoyment from killing dogs with a claw hammer. Everyone has their own little quirks, right?
Technically speaking, there isn't really a 'normal' person. People just like to hide behind a thin veneer of 'normalcy'. A truly 'normal' person would be the most boring, bland person on the entire planet, and I'm relatively sure that probably 99% of the human population has something about them that other people would consider weird. And then that boring, bland person? He's 'weird' because he's so much different from everybody else. 'Normal' is a misnomer because it's impossible to define what makes a person 'normal'.Eclpsedragon said:I'm very aware those things are considered weird by normal people and the only reason they aren't considered weird here is because we are a weird bunch of people.SonicWaffle said:Just bolded that for emphasis, but you might not want to take your cues as to what constitutes normalcy from random strangers on the internet. We're pretty weird.Eclpsedragon said:All the things I've done that "normal" people consider weird, members of this forum have assured me are completely natural and not in the least bit weird at all.
HOWEVER, when you say something you do is weird and the community at large tells you you're wrong and that they also do those things, does that not make it normal within the community?
To be truly considered weird, one should be able to list something not even people who frequent the same circles can relate to.
Edit: Also Mr. Waffle I have your response coming, it's just early here and my brain needs to wake up.
It's all just paper, but people look at me like I have six eyes instead of the usual four. Like, I'm not even joking. I think it's because one comes from the bathroom.SonicWaffle said:That's pretty ordinary, surely? It's all just paper, designed to be soft and thin. I can't really see the difference![]()
That's...pretty weird. I'm sitting at my desk at work right now, and I've got a roll of toilet roll right next to the monitor that I use to blow my nose on. Nobody bats an eye to it, because it's cheaper than buying Kleenex and functionally identical.Zachary Amaranth said:It's all just paper, but people look at me like I have six eyes instead of the usual four.

The only LOGICAL argument I've ever seen is that toilet paper is septic safe, which means it breaks down in water. This has never been a problem for me, the tissue breaking down in my hands, but at least it's an actual reason.
Oh, I thought you were going to say I wasn't alone about the dog/hammer thing.

Yeah it goes cold pretty quickly, but I like to drink my tea right away when I make a cup rather than waiting for it to cool or scolding my tongue oh a too-hot beverageSonicWaffle said:Son, you crazy. Crazy, I says! Surely milky tea gets cold much quicker too?

I use shampoo, but as for soap, I like a bar of soap more than body wash. What I do is I wrap the bar in a small washcloth and scrub that way. Soap saturates the cloth and doesn't slip away.shrekfan246 said:Oh man, I haven't used this gif in forever.

Shampoo has always worked miles better for me. But then, I haven't had 'short' hair since before I entered high school, and I absolutely despise bars of soap. Literally despise. I don't throw around the word 'hate' lightly, but I'll use it to describe how I feel about those stupid, useless, slippery bars of soap. I've never understood how anybody who has used a bath scrunchie and a bottle of body wash would ever be satisfied with a bar of soap afterward.
But then, I guess there are probably people who think other people that don't use loofah sponges are crazy, too, so to each their own.
I've never cared for the texture of a normal washcloth. On the few occasions that I'm forced into using a washcloth and a bar of soap, that's what I'll do as well, but I prefer the pouf and a bottle of body wash.BaronUberstein said:I use shampoo, but as for soap, I like a bar of soap more than body wash.

I say again - crazy. If tea isn't so bitter that it hurts to drink, then by god it isn't tea at all.

Plus, I drink and eat everything really quickly, I never have to worry about it being cold
