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

Im not anal about it (if im running late and the train is leaving i wont try to get to my usual carriage) but generally try to get on the carriage that will stop closest to the stairs/exit at the other end.

Ill usually go a single or double seat or stand (those bays of 4 where you face other people can GAGF)

Spot on, and get out at the door closest to it.

I prefer the bays of 4.

My legs dont fit in the little 2 seaters and if I sit in the others my knee is touching the opposite persons groin nearly. Trains are not a great experience.

We have have our weird kinks.

Im only 6ft and i cant stand the 4 seaters, get another person who isnt tiny opposite or next to you and you may as well be standing.

At least the two seaters you can sort of hang a leg into the aisle.

Eat most chunky soups on a plate because I like to see what I'm scooping up.

Who is the mayor/chief receiver of developer bribes these days?

This is very weird.

I wonder where the line is between a soup and a stew sometimes, is it just the amount of liquid?

Eat dry pasta whilst I have pasta cooking

our kids would devour a whole packet if they could

Serve them dry sheet of lasagne one night, you'd never hear the end of it.

i love when the edges come out just a tad underdone and are crunchy when using those sheets to make lasagne

It's the crunch that drives us back for more.

Sometimes if I'm unsure about a tv series, I'll watch episode 1 and the last episode.

[Xtreme]

When I get frustrated or stresed, I'll do this whistle repeatedly (but only when no one else is around).

Whenever something bad happens I rotate between dun dun dun dunnnnn (actualy sound effect or the whistle version) or a slightly sarcastic ohhhhhhhhh.

Amuses myself at least

I'm thinking about doing this for 'Better Call Saul'

I watched the first episode years ago and now I hear they are near the Breaking Bad timeline so I might just watch the last few episodes.

Put Soy Sauce on Potato Cakes

Laksa is considered a soup but translates roughly to stew.

I'd imagine viscosity has a fair bit to do with it

You can't do it with shows like Westworld, but I did it with Continuum. All of these shows follow the same rules. Travel back in time, find a way back, it doesn't work, your're stuck in the past, find a new way back home.

That show had a whole lot of garbage in the mid season. You can easily watch the first and last two episodes and make it all out. ÖTherwise you could easily pick a couple of the higher rated episodes in the mid season. The Flash is the same, or for that matter any CW show. Watch the first two episodes, episode before the holiday season, first episode back and then the last two.

Quite the opposite.
