Okay, I'll leave a nice note out tonight for Big Daddy giving him your address... so be on the lookout for one fat dude who has to sit on his rumpus to eat and a smaller version heading your way. I'll pack their bags today.
Yeah, I figured that your evil twin was at it again. Next thing you know she'll be making remarks about my antique hand painted slate collection. Geesh is she ever mean. Hide the keyboard from her already.
No offense at all Twinkie... but weird that you have 50 clocks in your house, but don't wear a watch. Really?

I have spoken to my evil twin who is saving the slate collection comments for another day.

Well it could be worse. Collecting things like invisible dogs or pet rocks.
I just hate changing all the clocks 2x a year. My father collected clocks too. Nothing too fancy though.
The wierdest clock I remember was the one in my first car. It was essentially a wind-up clock that when it ran down an electric solenoid would wind it.
The wierdest telephone is the Zeneth Space Phone which is a TV with a built-in speakerphone in it.
You got me... I counted all the clocks in our home for the last 'change' and we have 37, still a lot, but not 50... :eek:Quote:

(for those visitors who want to know the time of day or the people driving by in their car who wants to know what time it is or the mailman or UPS dude to see if he's ontime or not).
No offense taken MsMew. The real true reason is that when I wear a watch the dagblammed thing whizzes around on my wrist and drives me crazy. Sonny bought me a wonderful gold watch with an expansion band for Mama's Day a few years ago. Just what I wanted. Put it on and within one hour the thing kept whizzing around on my wrist it drove me nuts.Quote:

Oh, I was born during a particularly nasty thunder and lightening storm. Guess that's why.

Yummy, fresh chicken grease! Remember, if he smells like chicken grease it's the same Big Daddy! I promise not to confront him if he is the one and same Lothario. Let me know, OK?
OOooh my... that is strange... :DQuote:

I knew I just wasn't that weird, now if you all will be willing to notarize my normalcy, then I can be on my way. :D
I have so many weird quirks, I thought about which one to post all of yesterday. I have come down to one:
I am obsessed with gumballs. Yep. Gumballs. I have 4 gumball machines in my apartment, one small one that can be on a desk, the other two are full size ones that spins around, one "wall" machine that looks like a picture frame with gumballs in it, but if you turn the knob, the gumball comes out.
I also calculate in "gumball"... When someone says they bought their shoes for $30, I think, "whoa...that's 120 gumballs..."
Or if someone says, "Gas is $2.00?!?!?" I think, "Should I buy 8 gumballs with that...or be able to drive another 30 miles...?"
Ok Sneezy, so far you take the cake!
Wow, never heard of anyone calculating anything in gumballs!
Ok, I have planty of weird things that I do.
Whenever I watch a movie or TV. I have to have the remotes in my possession. I have to hold them or rest them on my stomach.
Another things I hate is my money out of order. I have to have all my bills in my wallet with the biggest bill in the back and the smallest in the front and it all has to be in the same position. The bill can't be upside down or in there backwards.
I will try and think of more.
I have to do that with my bills, and I can't stand when people give me messed up change.
Adam, does that mean your fiancé is not allowed to touch the remotes or change the channel?
Hello again:
It's amazing how you can be on a website with people for years and never know how loony they actually are.
And here, I thought I was the only one.
excon
No Justy, I am not that mean. I let her watch what she wants. I just mainly freak out when I can't see the remotes. If they aren't in sight I freak out. It's mainly OK if she is watching TV. When we are watching a movie though, I have to have the remotes. Period. LolQuote:

Good thing I am not your fiancé Adam, we would be boxing every night!
I bet you are the channel surfer too, never see more than five minutes of any program...
I have some issues with the feel of paper too, Adam.
I CAN NOT touch paper after washing my hands until I have lotioned my hands. It drives me crazy like nails on a blackboard. I must lotion my hands after every single time I wash them. I keep lotion in my bathrooms, purses, and at work.
No, you don't see. She can watch what she wants. I never actually get the chance to watch what I want. I let her pick and it is always that damn reality TV. I deal with it though because I love you. I just like to have to remotes in sight.
Also, I am not really a channel surfer, I do change the channel sometimes on commercial. But I have DVR so I usually pause the TV before a show starts and then come back about 10 minutes later and watch it so I don't have to deal with the commercials. Lol
There seems to be a slip of the tongue in this post Adam...Quote:

NO WAY EX! We have every right to be just a loony my friend, and I don't think that we have even begun yet...Quote:

Since the introduction of the new currency, the newer bills will be arranged upside down such that the value of the currancy with the largest font is facing away from me. It's too difficult to read otherwise.
Sorry Stringer, didn't mean to give you another weirdism. :o Dry hands drive me batty!
Dry lips too! I never lick my lips because they get dry that way, so you got to give me some vaseline, chicken grease, something to moisturize 'em!
So are we all OCD or just plain kooky? :confused:

I eat my food in an order. I can't mix my food. I always eat from least favorite to favorite. So, if I have Steak, mashed potatoes and green beans for say. I would have to eat the green beans, then the potatoes, then the steak. If I eat a burger and fries, always fries first then burger. I used to never drink anything until I got done eating. Now I have improved with that but not by much.
That is so funny because I always do that, my partner and his WHOLE family have told me I am beyond weird for it, but in our family you always ate one item at a time, not jump from food to food. I am getting a little better though, just cause I don't like the weird looks I get.Quote:

Hello again:
I go from item to item, with a bite of bread in between. Got to have bread. I always make sure that I have at least a little piece of everything left for that final tasty mouthful, too.
I NEVER mix things on the plate. On the fork is OK.
excon
If I go back for seconds, I have to get a little of everything not just the one thing. So if I want more mashed potatoes, I have to get more green beans too.
Weird Item #32:
I could eat mashed potatoes and gravy everyday, with every meal, with everything.
Oh goodness, I forgot some clocks. They are on the outside of my shed and on the inside. 1 outside and 3 inside. Also one thermometer outside (that perpetually says 80 degrees) and two in the shed.
Now for my barometer and hygrometer collection...
Okay, is it weird that I'm subscribed to this thread but I haven't posted in it and I don't know why I'm subscribed to it? Am I too young to get alzheimers? Where am I? Who are you? Why are you looking at me funny?
Weird things I do;
1. I can only eat ice cream out of a bowl with a plastic spoon. No metal spoon, only plastic, and not a big spoon, it has to be little. I don't know why. :(
2. I too have a shower routine, everything in order or I forget stuff, and I have lots of stuff. ;)
3. I have the same routine every morning, I can't change it, bad things will happen, I'm sure of it.
Okay, maybe I'm not so weird, it seems that the rest of you are a bit more loony then me. Whew, I'm so relieved. :)
