weird shit you think only you do/did

typically when i order a combo meal from a fast food burger spot, i eat all the fries first, then the burger.. all without having taken one sip from the drink. when i'm done w/ the food, then i down the soda.

playing pickup basketball games in my younger days, whenever i got fouled (and when we were still actually taking free throws for fouls)… i would bounce the ball 2 times before my first free throw, 3 times before my second one. this was done to channel michael jordan (#23) of course.

this last one is on some rain man shit.. (i don't do this anymore)… i've always had a large cup somewhere around the "throw your keys/wallet/cell phone here" desk/table where i would also put any spare change i came home with in my pocket. then let it build up and coinstar it at the supermarket…. but i hated pennies. so before heading out for the day, i would put 4 pennies in my pocket, so if say i bought a snapple for 99 cents.. i'd give the clerk $1.04 to get the nickel back (and get rid of my pennies at the same time).

Side, main course, then drink. I think it stems from when I was just a young grasshopper & my mama wouldn't let have my drink of choice (Kool-Aid, soda, juice/punch) unless I finished all my food. Still do it all the time . . .

If I'm feeling a particular song at the moment, it's nothing for me repeat it for a good hour or two in a row.

Sometimes during sexy time with a nice young lady, if a mirror is nearby I pose in it a la American Psycho. That shit's just funny to me. I don't know why . . .

last weekend at a club I was in the restroom washing my hands as these other two ladies walked in, I missed the convo but the one was telling the other how she always uses the first restroom stall because it's statistically used less, and therefore cleaner.

I felt a weight lifted from my shoulders. For the longest time I've been anal (har, no pun intended) about using the first stall for the same reason and thought there was something wrong with me for being OCD about something so ridiculous. I'm so relieved I'm not the only one, and I told her so. There was a moment of bonding before she took a wee.

Except I don't like to tell people that story, or about my strange habit, in case the use of the first stall becomes more widespread and thus makes that stall the dirtiest, instead.

So please keep this to yourselves. Thank you.

i once listened to bob dylan's "boots of spanish leather" on repeat for 2 hours straight. it was one of the darker times in salparadise's life.

I have also heard that about bathroom stalls and always go to the first one.

I feel you, fam. I had an emotional marathon repeat session many moons ago with "Rocket Man" & "Holding Back The Years" once. True story.

Jeebus, were you curled up in a ball?

It was a rough period, homey.

The Director is more than just eye candy & vast musical knowledge. The Director has feelings. Sometimes. ;)

Oh, every guy does that. But it's usually "Idiot Wind" for two WEEKS after a particularly bitter break-up with a female.

P.S. I hope Dylan does "Senor (Tales of Yankee Power)" tonight.

P.P.S. And while I'm hoping for things that will never happen I hope Costello does…."Party Party."

i think it's funny to see how paranoid people get about bathrooms. you are much more likely to pick something up from a public phone or a computer keyboard… yet people have no qualms about touching those, or putting them up to your mouth. the likelihood of getting anything from a public restroom is very small (except maybe an arrest, if in an airport ;) that "sometimes" being defined by the absence of alcohol and other anasthetics :p

Sorry ladies but the first stall in a club is the worst. When you're drunk it is the most convenient one to stumble in to and it's very hard to hover while the room is spinning.

My list:
-I flip off my computer when certain coworkers email me.
-I will eat/use certain things like salad dressing after the expiration date.
-I wash my dishes again before I use them because I don't trust that my roommates know how to wash them.

tough crowd

i turn on the faucet while i brush my teeth and keep it running. seems like i subconsciously enjoy the sound of the running water. i snap out of it and turn off the faucet.

the only thing that will get a boadee talking more than someone dissing their favorite band: the opportunity to talk about himself/herself.

I am not usually weird about germs n stuff, just in that one case I am weird about it. I REALLY JUST DON'T KNOW WHY. That particular thing got stuck in my head.

and please people don't tell me if you have this same weird thing that I do because now I am feeling claustrophobic. OMG NOW WHICH STALL AM I GOING TO CHOOSE??? I am about to have a breakdown.

I don't usually like talking about myself so much, but I don't know anything about music so I'm sort of out of place here. video games, anyone?

Ooops, actually I do this too!

I don't bitch about prices & charges, I bitch about not being able to afford them.

Sometimes when i'm eating a girl i like to also lick her arsehole..

I wash my hands BEFORE taking a piss, not after (assuming I don't touch the urinal after).

My wife could come up with a long list of things that I do "that normal people don't." (her definition of normal) Though I'm willing to bet many actually do.
