I do this too. The third person thing came about because of sports, the talking to oneself due to being an only child.

I also mix grape Gatorade with vodka. It tastes like Dimetap, and reminds me of childhood. Also, no hangover.

I talk to myself all the time. Specially when doing something, it just starts rolling out. Also, the REALLY weird thing I do, is when playing RPGs like Elderscrolls for example, Ill make up a monologue about the character while playing, and if it doesnt mesh well with me, Ill delete the character and start the process all over

The only person who really listens to me is myself, and even then I sometimes ignore me.

Oh god, I do that too KC
I also do things even though only I will ever see them in rpgs. In oblivion, I made the Chorral house's dining table a replica of the table of madness in the shivering isles, and duped a bunch of w/e the evil tome in the Anvil house's basement, and hid them all over the world, with a skull watching each. One place was this cool burned down store, one was the island Fingleam was underneath, etc etc
In morrowind, I took the boat at Sadrith Mora as my home, and made tons of awesome things. A shrine to the bittercup, for example

I do a lot of stuff only I will see, especially with modding. I do it and then realise "hmmm, nobody else is ever going to see this..." and "I highly doubt any NPCs are scripted to recognise anything i've done..." and finally just become disheartened and wait for Oblivion to crash.

Don't we all.

Yea I do things like that in games as well. Who cares no one will see it, it immerses you into your character. Infact way back when Oblivion first came out, I had a 360 and when I got bored of it, I sold it all on Ebay. The person who won it, wrote me and said how excited she was (yea a female gamer!) to get it and play Oblivion when she had free time at her dorm (man...if I were single right?) So for kicks, I wrote her back and said Id leave a map in the box with info on which character to load and to follow the clues on the map I made to get her into the swing of how to play the game. The riddles ended up leading her to a clam shell in the water just outside the docks in the white city with a gak load of gold and such inside it.

She wrote me back later and told me she had a blast following the riddles. It made my month

The internet is a fabulous, crabulous place.

Crabulous?!

I love Zoidberg, just throwing that out there.

I may be mistaken, but I believe Zoidberg is a lobster...

...Just sayin'...

...Please don't kill me.

I thought Zoidberg was a lesser reflection of Cthulhu.

Seems kind of pink to be Cthulu, don't you think?



Let's see....

When holding my mouse, my middle Finger clicks every so often, without me meaning to.

I can't sleep with my closet closed.

I hold open doors for the ladies, even if it's totally out of my way/I hate them.

I mumble.

I stare STRAIGHT ahead, down a 70* angle, which unfortunately means I am "Staring" at a fair few people's bums.

But he has the squid mouth and he seems somewhat crazy.

I also hold doors open for the ladies. Sometimes for an unreasonable amount of time (walk to where you are going, THEN text!)

And slarg, why would you want your closet open

I agree with the unreasonable time; some ladies are halfway across the store, and I will hold the door open for them if I know they are heading through it.

When I was little, I saw a couple horror movies where something scary came out of the closet. I somehow convinced myself that "If the door isn't closed, they can't come creeping out of it." And after a couple weeks of sleeping like that, when I finally got over my fear of the Closet...... I was too used to sleeping like that, I never could change.

I also hold doors open (although I don't discriminate between men and women ) and it can take an awkwardly long time for the person i'm holding it for to reach the thing.

Then there's the 'let through a long stream of people, and yell "You're welcome." after them when you don't even get recognition, never mind a thanks'...

Sometimes I think it'd be better if I just trolled people and slammed the door at the last second; they'd be all too willing to recognise it when it flattens their nose.

Having the door held open for you is not a right, but people like to damn well behave like it is.

The only people who seem to have manners are older folk, although that's probably because barely anyone cares about them anymore; that said, I dislike the few elderly people who like to try and push the limits of the 'age card', and dismiss all the empty bus seats they've just walked past just so they can stroll up to me and stare, waiting for me to give up my seat; newsflash, walking past empty seats forfeits your moral right to guilt me out of mine.

I get j-pop songs stuck in my head.

I crack a smile when things get too difficult for me.

When I get mad, I start switching my languages mid-sentence from english to russian.

When I go to conventions without my fiancé, I sleep with a plushie in my arms.

I pace when I'm on the phone, and I'm a dedicated Miami Dolphins fan.

I scare people.
Usually without even trying. Without even thinking about it.
When I'm trying I cause terror.

I make people think Im crazy but in reality I am.

I mumble to myself

Talk to myself outload

Space out when people are talking to me (Just like Joey, just worse)

I love cleaning my ears with a.. What the hell is it called on english? Cotton Stick? No, i don't belive it has such a lame name... Hmm nevermind i think you guys know what i mean.

I ehh... I have a weird walk? I don't think so myself but people can see it's me even if i am far, far away just by my walk.

I can't stop myself from eating it if there is chips in arms reach!. My worst weakness...

I think that's it funny thread buddy. Keep it going!

I make references to popular pop music songs accidentally in casual conversation.

It's only really awkward when people get it.

When I talk to people I usually slowly make a cicle around them/ pace in a semi circular fashion if Im thinking about what Im saying a lot

Thats the worst, after that long stream of people, and nobody says thanks
To be honest, I hold it open for everybody, but 'holding it open for the ladies' sounds better

That's not weird, that's manly. Faust didn't expect what her creation would lead to...

Umm...
I say "bless you" to people who sneezes, even if I don't know them.

I make rhyme jokes out of people's names (What would Battle Brothet Lucifer be called if he was a cow? Cattle Brother Lucifer).

I am a word fascist. And despite this, there are words where I cannot accept the way they are pronounced.

I don't like mixing rice with Curry.

I say gesundheit when people sneeze

Battle Brother Lucifer wrote:I say gesundheit when people sneeze

Well, actually I say prosit (swedish version), not bless you, but you get my point.

I was about to say I did this too, but then I realized I don't.

I full on belly laugh.
