Weird Facts About YOU

[phillybeth]

I didn’t have a cavity until I was 25. 10 years later I still only have one.
I put sugar in my hot tea but I drink my iced tea unsweetened.
I don’t drink regular coffee but I love espresso and cappuccino. I also love anything coffee flavored- yogurt, ice cream etc.
My left leg is shorter than my right. So is my right arm.
I was a twin but my mom miscarried my twin at 3 months.
My eyes have changed color since I was a kid. They used to be very dark brown, now they are a very light greenish-brown hazel.
The only foods I refuse to eat are lentils and liver. There are several foods I can’t eat due to allergies and some I can only tolerate, but those are the only 2 I REFUSE to eat under any circumstances.
I’m not afraid of heights but I hate standing on ladders, especially at the very top.
I can’t jump in a swimming pool, I have to walk in, slowly, until the water is up to my shoulders. Only then can I stick my head under. Once I’m wet all over I have no problems with diving, cannonballs, or anything like that.
I can’t sleep without hugging a pillow.

Wow, lots of stuff to read here.

Well, I have to have my sheet tucked in tightly at the bottom of the bed. I can't stand to feel a loose sheet on my feet! I'll even get up in the middle of the night to fix it.

I can't sleep with less than 3 pillows, one of them being my long body pillow.

Can't drink Pepsi. Only Coke!

Can't go in water if I can't see the bottom!

I hate shoes and socks too. But when I'm on vacation (WDW!) I have to wear socks with my sandals. Sorry guys, but if I don't my feet break out.

The first thing that comes off when I get home from work is my bra! I hate those things!!!!

Speaking of teeth, I lost my last baby tooth when I was 19... and the adult tooth grew in on its own.

I have never had braces... never needed them.

 

[JC2]

I absolutely love this thread!

I have to sleep with a pillow, but I sleep with my head barely on the edge of the bottom of it.

 

[WishingStar]

These are really fun, here goes...

I like FLAT pillows, I can't sleep in hotels because their pillows are too fluffy.

I eat popcorn one piece at a time, just can't do a handful, drives DH nuts.

Love peanut butter and jelly, but not together, have to eat them seperately.

Like to dip dorritos in cottage cheese.

I too am not a big fan of the socks and shoes.

That's all I can think of (or am willing to admit).

Boy the tag fairy is having a field day with this thread!

 

[Kitty 34]

Great thread!!! I won't have to worry about the Tag fairy, tho 'cause I've had the SAME tag since the fairy started tagging!!!


Here goes my weird facts:

1. I will only drink water at room temp.

2. Love peanut butter until it's baked in anything

3. Favorite condiment is catsup but I won't go near a tomato!

4. I only raise tomato plants for those cute caterpillars....really! Just ask my family and friends!

5. I'm a closet country music listener.

6. Wherever my DH and I go.....I drive.

7. I love wearing shoes and socks and will wear them up til I go to bed.

8. Sleep with a fan next to my bed but it can't blow on me.

9. I hum in my sleep but never when I'm awake.

10. I'm addicted to Disney......oh wait that's normal here isn't it!!!

This was fun. I feel like I just had a session with a therapist!!!

I was double dared to put my picture on a site where people rate you from 1-10. It has only been there a few days.............

I can't stand the sound of people chewing-eating noises is what my kids call it. Crunching is the worst! (There is a girl who sits in the office next to mine and crunches all day, I want to ring her neck)

OMG me too! I can't stand the sound of someone chewing, crunching, smacking gum, or swallowing (ESPECIALLY swallowing!). It's just disgusting! Last Christmas my dad even bought me a pair of earplugs as a joke present...at least I think it was a joke!

Here are some of my other quirks:
- I can't stand tomatoes but LOVE ketchup...when I go to a restaurant, I seriously go through half of the bottle on the table when I order just fries and chicken tenders

- I HAVE to sleep with covers on up to my neck (thanks to a horror movie I saw when I was 12 - some girl in it had her throat and wrists slit while she was in bed, sleeping...I've never been able to sleep the same way since!)

- I have ADD

- I HAVE to read something while I eat at home...I can't just sit down and eat, I have to be doing something else as well...however, I refuse to read in restaurants

- I can't go out in public without makeup (but it's probably just teeange vanity )

That's all I can think of right now...I'm sure I have more quirks that I just consider normal!

 

[The Tag Fairy]

I just flew in to thank ILUVDXL for starting this wonderful thread. It has been a great source of inspiration for me.

Ta ta,

 

[ASFCurly]

lets see...

I grind my teeth, people have said that I woke them up from across the room doing it, I have a bit gaurd so that I don't grind them, but I forget to put it in sometimes.

I have always been fairly shy, better than I was, but still not very loud or outspoked that often, but I have worked at the movie theater so long, and I know what I am doing, and don't really care what others think of me that I am totally opposite there than I am most other places, in fact, when my family and friends talk to the people at work, they think the people at work are talking about someone else when they say I talk all the time.

They only type of movie that scares me are movies where people are stuck on a boat in the middle of the ocean and can't get out and ghosts or something are coming after them, sort of like ghost ship, there are actually quite a few movies like that out, I like to watch them occasionally because other movies that scare everyone (like the ring) don't scare me at all. and on that note, I like to see movies by myself, and actually go alone more often then I go with others.

I like Michael Jackson's music! I love the 80's, I eat A1 steaksauce with my scrambled eggs, my capri pants go all the way down to my ankles, I love bowling, I HATE it when I am working and people put their money on the counter, or fling it on the counter instead of handing it to me!

I love my job, I just recently had a chambord margarita! OOOOh those are good. I honestly think I live for stress, it drives me.

I don't like the bouncy thingies that you can put in your replies

gotta go, my ride to the airport is here!!!! Yay, Disney here we come!

 

[kazzie]

I have enjoyed reading this thread so much.....thanks for sharing Many of my 'weird' things are other peoples too,how reassuring!

I love coffee but nothing coffee flavoured,ice-cream,chocolates etc.

If my family (or anyone else) make noises when they eat it makes me feel sick.

Since seeing the film 'The Birds' as a child I have a phobia about pigeons (thanks Alfred )

I love cheese and strawberry jam (I think you call it jelly?) sandwiches together.

I have to look away and put my fingers in my ears when couples on TV/films have noisy slobbering kisses,its mostly the noises they make but also how they slobber too........yeuch!

I won't drive anywhere I don't know where I'm going as I'm afraid to get lost.My DH has to go out on a recce with me beforehand if it's somewhere new.

I straighten up my money in my purse too! All notes facing the same way lowest denomination first.........how sad

I'd better stop now

 

[Angelrose]

I hate shoes too. I'm always barefoot at home except in the winter when I wear socks. I have to have my feel out of the covers when I first go to bed. But after an hour or two they have to get under the covers with the rest of me. I make up words, which drives my husband crazy. I'll say oh FRIBBLE! instead of an expletive. Some of my other words are fnarfle, grotchy and gnarf. Honest, I do know what they mean. I just can't understand why nobody else does.

 

[Flyfly_Eclipse]

LOL Angelrose!!!

Please define them...I need to expand my vocabulary. My teacher would love to see me use more variety of words. I'm sure she'd be impressed if I used words even SHE didn't know the meaning of!!

PS - some of the words remind me of The Sims....lol

 

[Angelrose]

welllllllll, a Gnarf is a mischievious monster. Fnarfle is a kind of mess. Grotchy is something really nasty. Then there is Ronkle which means I'm not a happy camper.

Oh I do need help, don't I?

 

[bumcat]

I have to have my milk in a glass but all other drinks have to be in a plastic cup.
I cant stand eating with a fork unless it's a small one, I prefer a spoon.
Both feet must be sticking out of the covers at all times and while in the hospital I wish I had a dollar for every nurse that tucked the sheet back under thinking it came out by accident, they were so nice so I didn't say anything but it drove me nuts.
If someone at work starts getting on my last nerve, I cross one eye only and they always leave me alone afterwards.
I hate bananas but love banana pudding or bananas in the baby food jars.
When I read a book, I read the first chapter and then the last chapter, I dont know why but boy does it ruin a good book, LOL!

 

[ASFCurly]

More for me...

I like Michael Jackson's music too,

I can't stand it when rooms are messy except my own, it usually takes a while before I can bring myself to clean it, and it is usually when it can't get much worse.

My ears are really sensitive and the littlest noises can bother me, and I am very sensitive to smoke and perfumes and cleaners, I guess those two senses working overtime make up for the fact that I don't like very many kinds of food and I have poor eye sight. My nose is sensitive some times and not at all at others.

I am not worried about the TF either, I haven't been tagged since the beginning,

 

[BCVOwner2002]

Wow! Very interesting thread. Now where do I begin . . .

I also sort my money and it has to be in the same direction and facing the same way.

I crack my toes (which drives my family absolutely nuts)!

I do math problems in my sleep - including adding, subtracting and dividing!

My son recently informed me that I move my head back and forth as I type.

Whenever I sign my name or write a check it takes a long time because I have to do it perfectly. (DH was so mad when we refinanced our house!!)

I'm sure other things will come to me but this should be enough.

 

[tinaw]

I speed read so I read 3-4 books a week.
I HATE when people are eating and their teeth hit the silverware and make that metal screech sound.
I have the strangest sneeze. I get teased about it all the time. It is very quiet and sounds like "choo". Never sneeze more than once.
I can only sleep on the right side of the bed facing the right. DH MUST sleep facing the left. I can't stand to feel him breathing on me while I'm sleeping.
I always wear socks at home. I hate to go barefoot. I will even walk around outside with just socks on.
My house must be clean and tidy but my bedroom is a disaster area.
It annoys me when DH sneaks in and makes the bed. I like to be able to just crawl in. I hate moving all those foo-foo pillows, BUT I make my daughter make her bed every day. "Do as I say not as I do!!"
I like my O.J. with ice. Can't stand warm orange juice.
