What's something you do that you don't think anyone else does?

When creating I sometimes go to weirdly organized things for inspiration and order in that inspiration. The Simpsons Halloween (and often any animated sitcom’s anthology episodes) in order, Megaman’s robot masters in the order I believe they are in, MST3k episodes, all sorts of weird pop stuff running my decision making.

We’re in our 40s and my wife and I have a stuffed hammerhead shark we got on an early date in bed with us.

Even though this thread is new, I’m hesitant to think anything I do is unique, but I’ll throw out a few oddities:

  • I walk for 30 minutes every day on my tiny treadmill while rewatching The Great British Baking Show… And I rarely bake anything but bread.
  • I’m right-handed but can’t throw a frisbee with that arm with any accuracy.
  • I provide narration from my cat’s POV in a cartoony voice.

ETA: I also make a monthly dinner plan for my family using my 300+ digital recipe files. It’s an effort that keeps me sane at dinner time.

I spend so much time around crazy people I’m not sure what’s unusual anymore…

I can’t turn off a TV show or a movie if someone onscreen hasn’t completed their sentence.

Once they finish what they’re saying, I can turn off the TV.

I know. It’s a thing.

I didn’t say my thing was weird. It’s not! Sorting M&Ms and marbles is completely normal! It’s just unique. :slight_smile:

I am right-handed but I can’t snap my fingers with my right hand and the way I snap my fingers on my left hand is not something I’ve seen anyone else do. I use my thumb and index finger.

I just tried and I can’t do it that way. I just make a whiffing sound. :hand_with_index_finger_and_thumb_crossed:

I’ve never been able to snap.

I snap with my thumb and ring finger. I can’t do it any other way.

It’s not a loud snap. Even for me, it’s a different sound from others. I can only wink my left eye, too. And at that, in order to wink, I have to scrunch up the left side of my face to get my left eye closed without closing my right eye. :slight_smile:

I’m a lefty and can really only snap with my right hand.

I don’t get it either. Revolving doors are way more energy efficient, but folks just wanna let all the climate-controlled air out of the building.

Same. This makes sense, though. Your dominate hand is probably more muscle-bound, while your other hand is more flexible.

As for me, I throw away astonishing amounts of time online. And I know for a fact that I’m alone in this.

You definitely are. Couldn’t also be me, nope.

I pay attention to what studios streaming services have and had in the past whether pay cable or online. Those expecting Sony movies after the last Spider Man movie on Starz are gonna be very disappointed.
