Thread: Things you do for no apprent reason..

Talking about in the real world here not the forum

At work I've noticed that when co workers come through a door I say "Ahh ha" . It's almost instinct and doesn't matter who it is. Some are use to it while others get big eyes and stop in their tracks like I just caught them doing something.

When driving I use the windshield wipers no matter how clean the glass is. Caught myself at the drive thru last week right when the girl opened the window..there I was hitting the water and wipers spraying away. She wasn't pleased.

I never finish a cup of coffee, just top it off constantly. Saying that it does sound kind of nasty? Backwash city. I'll probably stop doing that after this cup.

I still give my name when making calls even though we all know who is calling prior to picking up.

I mow my lawn in a checker pattern. Once across then up and down. Probably has more to do with ocd.

I never pay bills early or late. Pay them on exact due dates.

On long late night drives I sometimes barely crack the drivers window so I can listen to the wind whistle

I have no idea where I intended this thread to go. I finally got a day off and don't really care

I think you are just really weird mate

Make sure your flies/zipper is up when you know it is.

Check the door is locked when leaving the house ....three times

Click my hammer toe against the floor through my shoe...really bugs the Mrs

Check the heating is off.. at least three times

Check the front door is locked after having already locked it at night

Say excuse me if I belch or something even when nobody is there

I could go on but think I have already said too much

Excellent stuff. I always say excellent stuff to weird stuff, most excellent.

First just proper hygiene bud . I had a number thing as a kid, had to count-check things 5 times like light switches, doors closed etc. ocd for sure.

I never touch a public bathroom door handle. I always use paper towel as a buffer. I hate those hand air drying machines, they limit access to paper towel. I also always use my underwear as a buffer when I scratch my ass

When I unplug the iron I say beaver 1 2 3

I crack my toes constantly

I can't sit down when I'm on the phone

I speak to myself in my head but I use different accents depending on my mood

When eating dinner I cant touch the meat on the plate until I've eaten everything else

1. I always check the hob and cooker is off 3 times before i leave the house even if it hasn't been on that day

2. I check the door a number of times to see if its locked.

3. My wife and I tidy up before the cleaner arrives ? why ?

4. I check that the vehicles are locked a number of times.

5. I also get annoyed at people here , sometimes to a raging level . This is something i am not proud of , but its frustrating trying to get your views across when you are not face to face. I'm sure most of us here are all decent people , we just don't always agree.

6. I post in bold letters not to annoy people but because its easier for old eyes to read

Note : Randy is a reclusive Billionaire and he lives out in the N'awlins swamps in his mansion , he doesn't work he is loaded

Oh I drink lager in a really strange way as well, I lift my whole arm up with my elbow pointing right out, loads of people have picked me up on it, I think it's due to my hypermobility, that actually explains away a lot of the strange things I do with my body.

Oh if I'm meeting someone at 2pm knowing full well that they will most likely be 1/2 hour late i still arrive 90 minutes early

Do you point your little finger outwards when drinking tea from a cup ? I do this and its sad. I think with a mug of tea you hold it with all your fingers tucked in , when you have large PAWS as I do with a little tea cup the little finger is uncontrollable and you look like a real Jessy.

Yeah I too am afflicted with large hands

I go pinky out when drinking from bottles as well.

This OCD lark must be common, or this place really does attract weirdos en masse.

Religiously check the back door and windows are locked even though I know they're locked.

The toilet/kitchen roll has to be a specific way on the holder (whenever moved call whoevers been in my home a cunt).

The knives/forks/plates/cups/food have to go in the cupboard the exact same way (whenever moved call whoevers been in my home a cunt).

Check the electric key everyday without fail even though I never let it drop below 100 quid.

Minimum unwrapped two of everything at all times - toothpaste, handwash, shower gel, shampoo, washing powder, bin bags, lightbulbs, toilet rolls in bathroom etc.

Every door (bedroom/bathroom/kitchen) has to be left wide open at all times (anyone that leaves one shut gets called a cunt).
