Society & Culture Things you do/did that you probably think no one else does

[blues4flag]

I very rarely don't finish my food. I love food.

 

[Jesse Custer]

Me too. Love grabbing a slice of bread and wiping clean all the juices left on the plate.

I love when my old lady cooks a few steaks and places them in a pyrex. After about 5 minutes, quite a bit of juice gathers. I love dipping my bread into the steak juice. Mmmmmm...

when i was a teenager and had a bit of a acne problem, I used to draw goalposts on the steamy mirror and pop zits on my shoulders and neck trying to kick goals.

 

[waggamick]

When every im at any kind of sporting match I always shake my leg, must be a nervous twich or something like that.

I also do the one with having volume at multiples of 5, not just on TV's, on car radios and cd players also.

Noticed a phenomenon that may be related;
Next time you go to a Footy match watch the legs of males in the crowd. Every time there is a distinct kick they mimic the kick...some slightly and some really give it a good boot.

I eat others' leftovers. I love it when fellow diners cut the fat off their steak. That's for me, not the dog.

The only time a sausage roll isn't as good at its end is when you have no sauce left.
Aside from that it's bliss the whole way through.

This. Sausage rolls are pretty ordinary for me without the sauce.

 

[getthefooty]

Don't know why but I've always preferred the mini sausage rolls and party pies to their bigger counterparts. Seeing a platter full of them gets me going like few other platters can.

Blast things off other things with streams of piss.

What. The. ****.

Brilliant.

Mini sausage rolls taste a lot better than your average sausage roll, not a big fan of party pies though.

 

[The Passenger]

This will probably sound cheap/stingy/whatever, but if I'm eating something I've bought (like fast food or at a restaurant), I always finish it. Just feel I'm wasting my money otherwise. I've been out to eat with people a few times who've piad $15-$25 for a meal, and then left half of it on the plate, and have never understood how they can do that and not feel ripped off.

we used to hang so much shit on this lass (still do but she's from NZ so dono't see her so much) because she bought this salmon lasagne which she reckoned was the most disgusting thing she's ever eaten but wouldn't throw it away cause she didn't wanna waste money.

Even though I have never met you, I can safely say that you disgust me.

The mini ones are definitely nicer for some reason.

Oh if I really didn't like it, I wouldn't eat it. But how often does that happen when eating out? You've generally got an idea of what you do and don't like going in I'd think. I mean more when you go out with people and they only eat half their meal, and it's not because they didn't like it, but because they "can't be bothered" or something like that. That's not something I could do. I feel compelled to get value for my money and make myself bothered enough to eat the meal.

 

[JHF1870]

I have a pretty good memory and I see numbers as players.

Instantly I can recall a player to a number seen.

For some stupid reason, 42 always reminds me of Chad Rintoul. Damnit.

But its handy to remember codes and warehouse locations at work and stuff. But its totally instant.

Last month I went out for tea and somehow misread the menu and ordered something that had anchovies in it. Was majorly disappointed, but I made sure I ate as much as I could without eating the anchovies so I felt I at least didn't waste my money.

 

[TheNextBigThing]

Whenever im taking bread from the loaf I never take the crust on top or the piece under it, will always go for atleast the third piece, dont no why I do it but have been doing it for as long as I remember

 

[Brad Goodman]

I do the same, crust and slice immediately following crust are inferior to the soft, delicious middle slices.

When in a restuarant/cafe with some friends, when we have a table number we usually name the players who wear/have worn that number in their career

* i swear at traffic lights especially when they deliberately go green when theres no traffic in the other direction. when i beat a traffic light i gloat and swear at it further. (yes i have traffic light issues)

* sometimes while driving, if i have a good upbeat song, i allow my hands do a piano or anything to correspond to the music.

* i sometimes sit down in the shower and dont move for an hour, its actually quite relaxing sitting with the water pouring right over your head like a waterfall

* i always think while im driving that there are people deliberately trying to block me or slow me down. i think to myself always how to get around it like a battle.

* if i remember a particular catch phrase e.g. computer says no from little britain, id literally try and put it in any context possible, "can i borrow your car" "computer says no."

*as a kid i used to get a2 paper and literally draw out cities with roads, infrastructure, etc till today if im bored in a meeting or such i do it on a blank paper or whatever

* anytime im passionate about playing a game or participating in sports, i always celebrate in some whacked up ways and likewise if im losing i literally do go apeshit. good thing is when the event has ended, i completely forget about it and apologise

*when in a stressful situation, instead of speaking to myself quietly or in head, i do it relatively hearable causing people to think im a bit twisted in the noggin.

How much bloody water do you waste !?

Yes drawing out your own little worlds are amazing. Had to do it in Year 7 once and I got an A

 

[cmndstab]

I wonder what it means to "literally" go apeshit

 

[s1bbald]

I used to do the same thing in regards to cities, but islands or planets instead. Islands always seemed to have an X (marking the spot), and a key hidden on the opposite side, usually in a crocodile infested swamp, or thick jungle. Came in handy for various school projects. If I recall correctly, there was one in Yr 5 or 6 where I just grabbed one I had already made at home and got the equivalent of an A. Let the good times roll...

I only stopped playing dice cricket and footy a couple of years ago. When I was about 12 I had grand plans to re-play every VFL/AFL game and test match. Got to about 1930 with the VFL and 1925 with the test cricket.

If I had the time I would probably still be going.

hahaha... I stopped doing it back in 1983.

Also back in day.... decided that the VFL record didn't contain enough stats/ details.. so I typed up my own footy record.. (card) use to rate players games out of 10 without being bias to my favs.

Doug Ackerly won the North B & F from the Back pocket in one season.
Some people at the footy where leaning over to get all my updates.. I was known as "stats" to some.

The crust is worth eating if you toast it.
