I know that is a broad subject but Old Dawgs post on Chocolate and Cheese got me thinking


Are there things you do or dont do that are, say , different?


Me. A Few

1 - I have not eaten a bowl of cereal in over 40 years. Just have no taste for it.

2 - I have only drank one cup of coffee in my life. (48 years old)

3 - I have only smoked about two puffs off a cigarette in my life (I was 13)

Pretty much the same on the cereal

Only drink coffee when it's really cold or I'm really tired, don't really care for it

I eat breakfast foods for supper

If at all avoidable, I don't eat at buffets. They are germ-ridden and the people you see gorging themselves at them resemble cattle or hogs feeding themselves from troughs. No thank you.

I used to use a new towel every time that I bathed. I recently got past that.

If it's not working hours, I don't strictly abide by other people's timelines, except for church, weddings, etc. It's not a matter of disrespect, I just have to live my work life by strict timelines, and when I'm off of the clock I may be 5-15 minutes late at any given time.

Some of mine are already mentioned here. Only tried a cigarette once in my life and one puff was enough for me.

Don't eat at buffets under any circumstance.

If you're on time, you're late to me. I'm extremely punctual, to the tune of arriving 15 minutes early for anything.

I've only bought one scratch off lottery ticket in my life, and I won $100 on it. Never bought any more.

I always bite the corners off the burger patties at Wendy's before I eat the burger because it drives me insane that the patties aren't symmetrical to the bun

Like who the frick uses square patties on a round bun? It just ain't right

I have to finish my entree and sides at the same time. So when I eat, I'll take a bite of entree, bite of sides, then drink. At the end of the meal, I'm left with 1 bite of each plate item.

It absolutely BLOWS my mind how some people can just eat all of their side, then move onto eating the entree. Or vice versa.

1.) I get extremely frustrated when the vehicle in front of me doesn't pull all the way up to the line for traffic signals. I'm talking furious.

2.) If I'm supposed to go to an event/engagement, I must be 15-20 minutes early.

3.) I don't wear deodorant. All of my friends think that is the grossest thing ever, but turn out to be very surprised, because I never have BO.

4.) Also, as mentioned above, I always eat one thing on my plate at a time.

Never drink coffee do not like the smell of it.

Do not eat chicken or poultry.

Always tie my right shoe first but double knot the left one first if double knot needed

Will not under any circumstances touch or get near any type of bird.


ETA:

Will eat all of 1 thing before I eat another. Like eat all my steak before moving to baked potato or all my lasagna before bread etc.

Let's step up the crazy a little...

I have an electric space heater in my office. When I leave work every day, I have to stare at the on/off switch (repeatedly) to reassure myself that I'm not going to burn the office down overnight. I've actually called back in on the way home to get the receptionist to check and make sure I turned it off even though I had already gone through the staring ritual.

It's the same with making sure I have my car keys in my pocket before I lock my car at the airport. Nowhere else....just the airport. I have an irrational fear of having to deal with my keys being locked in the car after returning from a trip.

I'm getting more OCD the older I get. In another thirty years, I hate to think where I'll be.

If I make something in the microwave and use a spoon (particularly a plastic spoon) to stir it, I will throw that spoon away. Continue that until I need a new spoon to eat the finished product. I will not eat off stir spoons.

When I have a tub of ice cream, any size, it has to remain level the entire way down to empty. I can't stand opening a tub of ice cream and seeing big scoops taken out of it.


I live in Alabama and hate sweet tea. Get a lot of weird looks when I order it unsweet.

Also hate hot dogs.

I talk to myself all the time.

No I don't!

Yes, I do. I just don't always realize when I'm doing it.

Well, that's odd. How could I not realize I'm talking to myself?

I don't know, but it just happens. Sometimes I'll be halfway through a conversation before I realize I'm talking to myself.

Mayo is the only thing that i like on a hot dog, hamburger, or sandwich.

i eat the other stuff all the time because i've gotten less picky in my old age and know that i probably need some of the stuff i get from tomatoes, onions, pickles, etc, but meat, cheese, mayo, and bread does it for me.

I can't remember the last time I ate cereal. I've had it within the year, but maybe once.

I am weird with coffee. I'll drink it on camping trips and sometimes if I meet a friend for breakfast. Otherwise, I don't drink it. Just don't have a strong desire for it.

I rarely eat candy. Sweets for me is a bowl of grapes or berries.

I rarely drink alcohol.

I also have very minimal BO. I have hardly worn deodorant in my life. I wear a splash of cologne most days, though.

My farts rarely stink, unless I am doing protein shakes.

I have a strong phobia of potato salad. Also can't stand anything pickled. Whoever decided to pickle an okra instead of fry it deserves their okra chopped off
