Oh,
1 more weird thing I do
I'll order a large vegetarian pizza and ask for ham and salami as extras

Ask my Ex-wife... Everything I did was weird!

And yes, a bloke cannot BBQ without a beer!

If I'm having a night in watching TV with a few beers, I have to drink from a pint glass, I cannot drink from cans, and my first pint must be poured and ready before my first programme begins. However, I cannot take a drink from that pint until the programme has started and the first person in it has spoken.

Cheers,
Dumbassgo.

Here's a few I did today that I tend too do

1. I'll watch a cooking program too get an idea for something new, then buy all the ingrediants but make something else with them

2. I'll circle the supermarket car park for 20 minutes if I have too just too get a spot right out front even if there are empty parking bays around

3. Never leave the supermarket without toilet paper weather we need some or not

4. Usually whilst driving alone, I'll phone a friend up just too disturb them even though there was no reason for a call, and I'll make sure they're at work or busy at the time

That's 4 for the day so far, and I've only been up 5 hours so far.

A new day a few more weird things realised .

1- I have five mobiles and a land line phone , all of which are almost always on silent.
2- I advise friends to be more tolerant of strangers , but can lose my rag completely if i see someone doing something disrespectful.
3- I talk about being respectful a lot , but i only actually respect people i like ,since for everyone else i could quite happily kill them all and then go make a sandwich.
4- I make a lot of sandwiches because i feel in some way it's a sensible option to my usual time saving takeouts , but i fill them full of more crap than you could ever find in a Lidl`s bargain bucket ( Well if Lidl did takeaway food that is) sloppy special .
5- I believe the number four is unlucky and always make sure i never do things in groupings of four always five , which is quite fortunate given most cans come in packs of four .

Roll on 6pm

Help, I'm surrounded by weirdos!

I concur, it should be compulsory to hold a bottle of beer whilst cooking on a BBQ.

Weird: my personal style.

I admire beautiful cars. I love beautiful motorcycles. But even when I could afford to spend the necessary and I bought a gleaming, mint-condition, fast motorcycle, I loved it but I never felt like it was mine until I had scuffed the plastic tailpiece carrying a padlock and chain and until the road dirt was collecting started to look like it was an integral design feature. Another one I bought with a fist sized dent in thge petrol tank, not because the price was marked down (though I made sure it was

) but because I liked it better with the dent.

I value mechanical reliability, braking performance and grippy tyres very highy. I insist my vehicle must start, stop and go around corners and that the lights go on and off whenever I tell them to and only when I tell them to. Fuel economy? I want my car or bike to run when I only show it photographs of a petrol station. But much as I love beautiful cars and bikes I feel no connection, no sense of ownership unless mine is as scuffed as an alligator's backside. A shiny, mint condition vehicle feels like a burden and responsibility. A tough as boots old shitter so battered that someone could key the paintwork and I wouldn't even notice, that feels like an ally and a friend.

The volume level on my TV or car radio HAS to be an even number.

Yesindeedy - not only a beer.... but the right beer!

As for strange -
When I mow the lawn I have to do a different pattern each time
I have to brush my teeth before I can sleep, before I can get dressed in the morning and asap after lunch
I put pepper on all meats, pasta, seafood and vegetables - thats ALL
Every time our national rugby team play I have to drink Kilkenny - and I don't start the first one until kickoff
I watch every Formula 1 race live unless I'm on a plane - haven't missed a race for more than 15 years. I'm not nearly so into it any more - but the habit is ingrained.

Cheers!

Ha! I do that to Scoundrel and GreenSkull on a regular basis, they know by now when I'm driving and bored!

One thing I have noticed is that if I am buying something from a rack in a shop, I will remove the first couple of items and take one from the middle. Even if it is something in a blister pack and couldnt possibly be tampered with.

I dont know why I do that.

Let me start by saying I'm left-handed and have a beard that doesn't cover all of my face and neck.

When I shave, I apply the shave gel with my right hand starting with my right cheek, then the left, then the right side of my neck, finally the left. I then shave, with my left hand, the left cheek, then the right, the right side of my neck and finally, the left side of my neck.
