+1 but only if it's extreme.

The shirt or the poo?

 

[phantom13]

Take my shirt off when doing a poo.

Scrubs had an episode about the joys of a nude poo, it really is the best way.

• Avoid stepping on cracks in pavement
• I drink water straight from the bathroom tap rather than from a glass
• With the exception of turkey, I always finish my meat before my vegetables
• Whenever I'm carrying my wallet, I frequently check to make sure it's still there.
• Pull leaves off any low-hanging branches I walk by

I'm the opposite. Always eat all the veggies first then meat.

Run up to someone across the street and slap them with a loaf of bread

Order a happy meal from McDonalds and ask for extra "happy"

Once went to a library to ask for a book on, "how to read"

I listen to music multiple times isolating specific components of the music. Its amazing listening to hidden parts of music that you just wouldnt take notice without doing so. Demons and its time be imagine dragons have some hidden parts i love

Noticing the little intricacies is very pleasing.

A lot of people do that, in particular I've found people that actually play instruments a lot do that. It's why I love some bands, the little intricacies are amazing and sometimes the best part of a song.

It's one of things I love about the Dead. There are so many little intracacies in their concerts. Phil Lesh called it electronic chamber music, which I think is a really good description of what they played.

I'd say it's a little more OCD than something I "do".

1) When taking off in my car, I feel so wrong if I have done my seatbelt up before I either leave the car park, or start driving forwards after reversing

2) Can't do my shoelaces up until I get to work or the gym.

When I buy a newspaper, I never pick up the top one on the stack - always one a couple of 'papers down. Same with deoderant/body spray - always from a few rows back on the shelf.

If I have to walk in front of someone in a shop when they are looking at something, I always say "Excuse me."

Should be something everyone does. It's now just become a force of habit for me, it's just politeness, would be great if more of it was part of society.

I do the same with newspapers, never done it with deodorant though.

Agree completely. I would sound weirder than I already do if I listed all the 'polite' things that I do, but for me, it's just second-nature - it's the way I was brought up.

 

[RoOGrrrl]

I think it's because so many people spray the cans to see what they smell like - I figure if I grab one further back there's less chance of it being 'used'.

Um.... I do that with pretty much every grocery item I buy.

Can't do...there's just something really unsettling about not putting pants back on after a shit and a wipe

 

[kfc1]

I tie my shoes the 'bunny ears' way, but I loop them around twice. It's as strong as a double knot and never comes untied, but super easy to undo when you pull on them.

Apparently I do this too, now that I have googled it

As an aside, check out this crackpot who loves shoelaces so much he made a giant website?!

people who stack shelves always rub the front items on their butts before placing them on the shelf
