Weird shit you do

I hate the feeling of my fingernails. As a child I had a notorious habit of biting them. As an adult, I don't bite them, but I still cut them super super short because I just hate how they feel.
You know? It happens exactly the same to me. I used to bite my nails as a kid, but I don't do that anymore. So as soon as they grow like half a centimeter, I already feel like Freddy Krueger and have to clip them.
Another reason why I keep my nails super short is because they're very "soft" and bend upwards easily. It can be a bit painful.
 
I put ketchup on my fried/scrambled eggs. This weirds out a lot of people for some reason.

I guess it's a bit weird on fried eggs, but I wouldn't say anything or think much about it tbqh.

I definitely thought ketchup on scrambled eggs was normal, though. I do it, and diners have given me ketchup to put on my scrambled eggs...
 
I don't let any white grow on my fingernails. Started from playing stringed instruments and eventually I just couldn't stand my nails being any longer than the clear part.

How do you feel about it on an omelette? I can't have one without ketchup. I think the only egg related food I don't put ketchup on are boiled eggs. I might just try it one day, though.

Yeah, I use ketchup on omelettes too. If not ketchup I use hot sauce sometimes if I'm wanting a kick. Basically any style of egg where the yolk and white are beaten or mixed together I'll probably put ketchup on.

Never done it with hard boiled eggs but that's usually because I'm eating it with a salad and putting dressing on them or something. And not with deviled eggs but usually because I'm using some type of mustard with their creation.

Thinking about it more, I think the only reason I wouldn't use ketchup with a fried egg is because I tend to cook mine so the yolk is runny and I really just enjoy that runny yolk so much.

When I'm at work, I like to imagine what musical reference name would fit my Jojo stand. I also think about what it would look like and what its abilities are.

I've noticed that all I wear is navy blue which is ironic since blue is my least favorite color lol

I much prefer sleeping on a couch than in a bed.
My mattress is too soft and instead of getting a different one I decided to sleep on my couch instead.
Nah, you should have a thunk about the bed thing.

Anyway, I can't own a fever thermometer because I would lose my mind charting temperatures. Instead I have to hoof it over to someone I know that owns one. And not act weird about it.
 
I like to run my fingers over dusty surfaces and rub the dust between my fingertips. I've hardly done it since I became an adult, but every now and then I'll see some dust on the countertop or dryer lint in the laundry room and I'll go for it. I've never heard of anyone else doing this.

I put sriracha on omelettes and scrambled eggs, which is kind of similar due to the sweetness (although it doesn't have tomatoes).

Weird shit I do:

-Once a month, I clean the box fan I have in the bedroom by putting it in the shower to rinse off any dust/lint/etc.
-Every so often I put the plunger and toilet brush in the dishwasher and run a sanitize cycle
 
Being quite a weird person, I do lots of weird things.

I pace whenever I talk on the phone. I have weird ass phone anxiety and it's the only way I can stand to make phone calls. My kids learned the habit from me, though, and now they do it when they talk on the phone. Just an example of the little ways you can fuck up your kids without meaning to, I guess.

Anytime I'm standing around outside on a grassy area, I look for 4 leaf clovers. Lived in a rural area with only cows for neighbors when I was a kid and that's how I spent a lot of my time. I'm actually pretty good at finding them and sometimes people are impressed that I've got a "good eye" to see them. I never tell them that it's years of practice, not a good eye, that makes it easy.

I talk to animals (and sometimes inanimate objects). They don't talk back to me -- so I'm not a complete nut. But, if a squirrel is in the road, I'm actually saying things like "Okay, Mr. Squirrel, you need to make better life choices. Please get out of the road". I sometimes lecture my dogs on proper behavior before I let them outside in the yard as if somehow, this time, they are going to understand and stop barking at the neighbors or trying to fell a tree by chewing the trunk just to get to the squirrel in the branches.

I also sometimes have practice conversations by myself. Again, terrible social anxiety makes it hard, so I will practice before I have a social event. I even imagine what the other person will say and respond as if I'm having an actual conversation. Just typing that out sounds incredibly crazy, but it helps to kind of rehearse an answer to common questions or topics. It must work a little because my husband doesn't believe that I'm actually an introvert because he says I talk so easily to other people. He just doesn't know how hard I work to pretend to be normal.
 
I add -ski to random words when i talk to my friends or cat.

I observe everyone and everything around me, i will randomly look around and scan my surroundings.

I wash my hands often, even before this covid thing.

I check myself in the mirror often.

When i catch my cat staring at me, i stare back, then ask him what he's thinking about and he trots over and hops in my lap.

I robotically clean my apartment and take out my trash at specific times of the day after work.

When i speak to Hispanic people, i usually only speak Spanish to them.

I think in different languages, depending on my mood.

I stare at the moon, sometimes speak to it and call it my old, faithful friend.

I think about the distant past before I even existed, and can feel that I'm actually being there for some reason.

Many more but that would take all night.
 
If I’m by myself and bored I’ll start doing random voice impressions.

I cannot go to sleep until I have my final cigarette of the night

I live by myself and in a quiet neighborhood yet I still mostly keep headphones on when watching a show or playing a game
 
I sometimes giggle when I'm angry.

Not in an Arthur Fleck way, where I'm laughing but nothing is funny. I think it's actually funny when I get angry. Maybe it's due to the minor, petty things I get irrationally pissed off about.
