I talk to myself all the time! Mutual awkwardness high five!

Not all the water goes down the drain. The floor is wet afterward. Likewise, people will be standing in your pee.

OT:

I'm a socialist, which is socially unacceptable here in the states

I don't eat meat, which people interrogate me about

I agree with George Carlin that "there are no bad words, only bad intentions". Most people tend to see that as flawed, as they accept the social pretext that words like "fuck" are inherently bad.

I have a Rube Goldberg way of describing things, which basically means I use big words to describe simple things. For example, if someone says "I'm a girl , it's okay for me to be loud" I respond with something like "So your lack of a Y-chromosome completely justifies the discomfort you cause with an unnaturally high decibel level during regular conversation?"

I'm not trying to confuse people to make them feel stupid (with one exception, my crazy foreigner math teacher, who is a crazy foreigner in the least entertaining way) I just do it to make things a little more interesting.

I'm a communist atheist in a family filled with Christians and businessmen. Christmas and Thanksgiving are awwwwkkwaaaaard.

In order to actually contribute to the thread, I also make ridiculous faces when I doodle or draw, which is fine when I'm doodling in my room, not so when I look like I'm having a stroke in the middle of math class.

Sometimes, on long road trips, I pretend there is a little man running alongside the car, jumping over obstacles.

This is weird yes?
Holy shit. I do the exact same thing. Sometimes he slays imaginary monsters and chops down scenery with an axe though...
Haha, awesome BOTH of those! Mine also has a rocket skateboard for grinding on power lines :)
I also talk to inanimate objects. Lifts, computers, food, air...

EDIT: Also when I write notes and reminders on my hands or post-its they are written to me.

Like "You need to remember to book train tickets for tomorrow" people tell me thats weird.

Same. Do it all the time during Maths. I also eat strawberries together with noodles, a fact which draws weird looks from all around me.

I line up my money in my wallet from small to big bills. Not so weird, except that I HAVE to line them facing the same way.
Anyone who has ever worked a cash register does this.

Edit: I've also been known to eat onions like apples, after I peel them... sometimes with a little mustard.

I'm a socialist agnostic

You're a communist atheist

I'm just a somewhat less extreme version of you it would seem hahaha.

That norm is a first kiss at 11 I think (maybe 13) and that I haven't even been hugged by a non family related girl as of yet
=D yay
Yeah this confuses me too. I haven't been kissed my a girl and I'm being told that I'm missing out, oh yeah dating at 14 big fun. I had nobody to hug in the hallways or to tell my baww stories to boo hoo.
I too am in the same boat as you, and I'm 15. Too busy with school work anyways.

I keep track of how much I eat, and the carbs/protein/fat of what I eat. I have dozens of spreadsheets for daily eating plans (example: Monday - Work and Boxing, Cutting weight, or Saturday - MMA Class, Bulking up).

I also weigh myself every day, measure my waist, check a body fat calculator on the internet, and type the results in a Wordpad file on my computer.

I live in a college residence, and I don't smoke, and rarely drink.

I eat canned tomato beans, take some of it and put it in a sandwich, then add spinach, chicken, and cheese.

I pour about a cup and a half of Vector cereal into a cup, throw in a few teaspoons of yogurt, then mash the two together and eat it.

I've been eating pasta with bananas ever since I had teeth, its so natural to me, yet weird to everyone else. Do you have something, cultural or personal, that is second nature to you but nobody understands?
I totally need to try that the next time I have pasta.

I do that, too.

People find it weird that I have a USB drink warmer and a USB drink cooler. People are always, in that accusing or suspicious tone of voice, asking me if I'm a nerd/geek. I am, but how is it so weird that a man likes to keep his coffee hot and his other drinks nice and cool at work?

Another thing that people find weird is my collection of outerwear. I have more coats, jackets and hoodies than I have any other kind of clothing. It's a mild OCD thing where I hate overstuffing my pockets, and so invest in different kinds of outer layers to add new pockets, while meeting needs for different numbers of extra pockets, different levels of temperature and different levels of dress.
