What kind of weirdo are you???

[jrmy]

I embraced my weird a long time ago - back in college, a close friend and I used "weirdo" and "freako" as a term of close endearment. To this day, I can't hear either word without thinking of that person. I'm not sure if I could even list my personal weirdnesses - a lot of them are really small things... but they certainly add up. And a lot of them I don't even think of as weird, until someone else brings them up.

[D-Day]

I have by conscious choice had only one pair of boots for the past ten years. When my brother asked me to wed him to his fiancee they had to buy me a pair of shoes. I forgot they existed and left them out in the rain a couple days after the wedding which ruined them.

I have only worn cargo pants for the past I don't even know how many years, though I do have one pair of slax which I wore for the previously mentioned wedding.

If presented with a bowl of soup and saltine crackers I will float each individual cracker out onto the surface of said soup and then flip it (with a fork OF COURSE) dozens of times until I decide it's done and then eat it. I repeat the process until all the crackers I've been given are gone and then switch to a spoon to eat the soup.

More soup shenanigans: When it comes to pho I drink all the juice, then eat the meat and after both of those are gone I will eat the noodles.

If a guitar has multiple pickups I will only operate the one closest to the neck.

Overall more dorky than weird.

- My eye movements and what I look at (or don't look at) weirds people out

stop staring at my crotch, dude.

I was diagnosed with the exact same things when I was 16 (my S-A D manifested as multiple voices in my head), when I was 23 I took waaaayyyyyy too much LSD and went into a weird trip / coma at a festival. I remember that in my head I walked into a room and found every bit of my personality labeled on bricks in a huge pile, and I went through and threw out or broke the bricks of things I didn't like about myself and built a wall with the bricks of the parts of me I did like. I stumbled out of my tent 14 hours later a completely different person and have had no more issues in the last ten years....

I want to defragment my cpu as well

That's a good collection of stuff Fishtank.

I can't plan anything. In fact, I hate planning stuff.

Except pedals.

I have spreadsheets devoted to future purchases, future sound combinations etc. And I have scale drawings of my pedalboard on my computer, including future purchases, so that I know how to rewire my board when I have to do that. My next board (I hate tearing down a board and rebuilding it, so I wait until I have a critical mass of changes to implement) underwent over 20 different digital iterations until I am now happy with it, so when the next purchase comes in I'll redo it.

I make pedal spreadsheets too
I actually put just about everything I can in excel


also: I wash my hands before I shower, I tried to stop doing it but it is very hard not to do that.
I wash my hands alot actually

Umm, I sometimes catch myself growling at things ever since someone pointed that out to me ten odd years ago.

I love this. I'm picturing you, in the morning, eating cereal in a dead quiet room when suddenly you gaze over at the cereal box and let go a majestic roar.

Think more "apprehensive dog" than "angry lion" I save the latter for the wife.

It's just how I react to stress, it's like biting my lip or something.

I can work with that.

"I don't understand why I have to wash my hands after taking a piss. I know how to not piss on myself. I washed my dick this morning and since then it's been nice and cozy in clean underwear; my hands, though, have touched many a filthy thing. If anything I should wash my dick after taking a piss."

I can't nap. I maybe take 4 naps a year, and those are after being exhausted from not sleeping well for well over a week straight. I just can't shut my brain off, especially if I know I could be doing something more productive.

[Iommic Pope]

I'm the sort of wierdo that checks threads like this and doesn't contribute, just because I want to know how weird you all are.

That and I sing songs in an old crooner's style about things I am doing as I'm doing them.

[Andrew]

I am a total mess socially and emotionally, so there is legimataly a gold mine. The relatively acceptable weird things would be:
I can't stay awake past 1am
I have an Anime figure collection
I don't like eggs.

[Blackened Soul]

I talk to my self, I don't like dogs, of late I have had this urge to see how far I can wing a smart phone ripped from someone walking around a store, deep down I am not sure I like humans.. or at least not many or them, I think carrots and peanut butter makes a nice sandwich, I am not sure I exist, I must pick at it, until it bleeds, I cannot put my right shoe on first, I don't see a reason to separate or replace one for the other or ever take down halloween or xmas decorations, I don't like this thread, I don't like it when my hands feel dirty, same with my ears, I clean them a lot, I like run-on sentences, I have never smoked weed yet all my friends always have, I tend to collect stuff, I hate all colors off-white which means I hate most walls, I keep searching the internet for covers of king diamond songs done in the stylings of tiny tim to no avail...

[fishtankdork]

haven't cut my hair at a hairdresser for 5 years or so. i use the same electric razor for all of my body hair. all of it.

i drink an average of 2 liters of milk a day.

i grr and stuff too. girls tell me its cute. and than i realize im doing it. what they wouldnt think is cute, usually i do it when im pissed.

I talk to myself constantly in public, getting groceries in a busy aisle is going to create conflict because I frequently curse and refer to myself as "you" and "we". I love talking religion and politics to anyone; sitting side by side someone else at the bar the discussion leads to the government the divinity, although I have no strong ties to any party or system. If someone states a "fact" I demand to see a source of proof.
I feel I'm not that weird, but it's all relative I guess. I'm weirder than my partner but less weird than my friends.
