Skulduggery Posted April 25, 2018 #456 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I count everything. If I'm washing dishes (I only wash dishes by hand and refuse to use dishwashers....another quirk), I count each dish, and will always finish on one of a specific set of numbers that have occult significance. If there are a few dishes still in the sink because they fell on a different number, they're left until the next time I do dishes. I refuse to use salt on foods. Many foods alreaxy have more than enough salt in them. Why add more? It's disgusting stuff. I only eat standing up. When I was a young kid, I didn't like having toenails and would frequently pull each one off by hand. I can remember specific details about many things that others never seem to remember (like everyone's first and last names from my kindergarten class, for example), and I remember things from when I was less than a year old. It isn't eidetic memory because there are details I will forget, but I seem to remember a lot more than some people I know). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Commander Travis Posted April 29, 2018 #457 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Ever since I got it, My TV has believed that I'm in Aberdeen. At any rate, that's what it always gives me the weather for. It's quite interesting seeing what it's like actually; quite often, it makes me glad that I'm not. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I commute on it every day for work and pay my fare electronically. No fuss, no hassle, just sit back, listen to the news, read or do a bit of work. It involves a little walking too but I need the exercise to stay toned and clear-headed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanillon Posted May 31, 2018 #463 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I tend to react with slight irritation when people touch me, but I enjoy hugging people I consider close. And lifting them up - though not many people want me to do that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ouija ouija Posted October 19, 2018 #467 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I like to have as little food as possible in my fridge. I don't know why but a full fridge makes me feel uneasy. (Full freezer compartment is okay ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Walt' E. Kurtz Posted October 19, 2018 #468 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I dont know if this is regarded as a quirk i once played golf had 21,0 in hcp which is rather good but stopped cause had a tendency to loose my temper. I Could wack that ball far but it usually ended up in the woods and when i landed in the bunker i was like hitler he never came out from it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ant0n Posted March 8, 2019 #469 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I'm a mixed-handed person, just like "Shigeru Miyamoto, Nikola Tesla, Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, Michelangelo, Beethoven, Leonardo da Vinci, Sachin Tendulkar, Jimi Hendrix and Panos Priftis." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-dominance I've never been deeply confused because of my mixed handedness. When I was a young boy, I thought I was left-handed because I handwrite with my left hand and because I was told I was left-handed. I was asked to be careful while having lunch at the canteen because my left elbow could hit my neighbour's right elbow on my left. So yes, I was careful and, "as a consequence", I never had any inconvenient there. When we did sport at school, I was told I had to find my dominant foot. I was told it was more difficult to find it for left-handed people. So sure, it was more difficult for me to find my dominant foot. My dominant foot has always been the right one. I eat like a right-handed person (therefore no problem with my left elbow). I realized that in my early 20's only... I realized there were activities I did with my left hand or with my right hand. I'm not ambidextrous though (or just partially). I handwrite in a notebook with my left hand but I handwrite on a blackboard with my right hand preferentially. And so on. At that stage, I considered I was roughly a right-handed person who handwrite with his left hand. That was a little revelation: "I had never been a left-handed person after all." About 25 years after (i.e. a few years ago), I came across the concept of cross-dominance / mixed handedness: that's what I am. That was another revelation. There are many people like me, with that handedness. Mine was not indetermined any longer. I must mention I've never been deeply confused about that. Confusion was actually shallow and circumstancial and actually came from people's claims about what my handedness was supposed to be. Moral: take what people say about who you are with a grain a salt, no matter how convincing they are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately Posted March 11, 2019 #472 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Erm. When I'm having difficulty with emotions or collecting my thoughts I run some of the Fibonacci sequence in my head; it helps me to calm down and concentrate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a (regular) hypnotist last year. She told me hypnotizing a patient had much to do with whispering to that person. Our brain doesn't react the same to the whispers expressed to our attention. How easily hypnotizable are you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
