Common "Quirky" stuff...
Got any of those completely normal "quirks"?
Like always reaching past the first slice or two in a loaf of bread, intstead of taking the first slice, and similiar...always taking the newpaper out of the middle of a newstand, instead of the top one, and (ewwwww!) always got "see" the tissue after you blow your nose?
Eh...I know there are more things like this I can' think of right now...can you?

Re: Common "Quirky" stuff...
I would say normal, dave, as I also do that.
I can't think of anything quirky that I do at the moment, it's too early, not enough  yet, lol.

Re: Common "Quirky" stuff...
When walking, I always stick close to any wall like structure and occasionally tap it with my finger.
I randomly have days where I do not eat. I still do everything that I normally wood, I just don't get hungry. I sometimes still eat just because I know I should, but I'm not hungry at all.
I'll let you know if I can think of more. I'm a very weird person so I'm sure there's lots.

Re: Common "Quirky" stuff...
I always stay to the right in the grocery store...when walking down a sidewalk...perhaps it is conditioning to always go right but I wish everyone else would...if they are passing you and they stayed to the right there would be less "traffic jams" in the grocery store...I can't stand when people walk down the middle of the aisle, makes me crazy...ugh!!! Perhaps one of my quirks is anal retentive! LOL

Re: Common "Quirky" stuff...
I like to watch people and see what bothers them and attempt to disrupt their quirks. Like if they walk on one side of the aisle of a grocery store, make them move to the other side

Re: Common "Quirky" stuff...
While in the kitchen, I thought of another silly quirk I have....sometimes when measuring, for some reason I can't just put in the amount required of an ingredient,like when making coffee, I put in the two scoops, but always have to add "just a little more"
My husband has this kinda quirky thing too, for some reason, he can seem a little obsessive about knowing the temperature of every room he is in, he has these little thermometers all over the house and checks them constantly.

After I've deleted the days history on my PC, I always have to open another browser, just to double check that it really has all gone. (Yes, crazy I know,,lol!)

I do that allot too! I'm bad for anytime I leave the house, even though I know I was careful to shut off everything, like the coffee pot, I'll worry that I left something on that will burn the house down before I get back home!

Especially with bread! I can never remember which day it's made by the color of the bread tie but they put the freshest loafs on the bottom, trying to get rid of the older ones on top... yeah, I've got their number

I used to own a small grocery store, used to put the older bread at hand/eye level because humans are lazy by nature and won't bend down when they don't have to

Re: Common "Quirky" stuff...
Monday - Blue
Tuesday - Green
Thursday - Red
Friday - White
Saturday - Yellow
The colors go alphabetically by color Blue - Green - Red - White - Yellow, Monday thru Saturday. Easier to remember that way.

Doesn't it make more sense to see which date is out the longest and take that one???? Or do what I do, squeeze all the loafs until one feels juuuusssttt right.

Well, yes...... but! Bread made on Monday and Tuesday could have the same expiration date.. I'd want the one made on Tuesday. So there!
