I have a bit of an obsession with Feng Shui, Tarot, and other occult practices with strong cultural roots. I'm also a perfectionist when it comes to stacking things, despite being very disorganized.
The need I have to get a nose bleed. I thought I got one today, but a pimple there just popped. It wasn't even that big, tons of blood though.
I remember awesome quotes perfectly, but not who said them. I also have a tendancy to correct people if they misquote something.

I can play the tuba. Has anyone seen the movie 'Brassed Off'? You know the Whitbread Marches where they march through the different villages? I did that!
Not only do I have the entire ending theme of Final Fantasy VI memorized, I can play it on a synthesizer.
I'm also a pretty good shot. Hoping to go into professional shooting sometime. Pictures of targets available on request!

Oh, now, well, if we're just going to start making stuff UP....shatnershaman said:
You know that quirk that Jack Nicholson has in As Good as it Gets- the one with the cracks in pavement? I have a psycho version of that: instead of simply avoiding cracks I try to even out the number that I step on and with what part of what foot. Example: If I've stood on a crack with my front left foot I now have to step on one with my fron right by varying my stride. But now my back left touched a crack! Must balance out with back right... It started as a much younger me doing something as a personal joke but now I'm so hopelessly addicted I can't help it. I can even feel when my crack count is unbalanced.
I also have a habit of, without meaning to, discovering how weird a common word sounds, like "sky" for instance. I spent five minutes thinking about how each letter went together to create a word that only now sounded bizarre.

If my vision drifts down to the point where I start to notice the cracks in the side walk, I start to car if I step on them or not.Saskwach said:

I can correctly guess a person's astrological sign after casually talking with them for a while. Accurate about 85% of the time. As a sort of derivative, I'm better than most at astrology and other forms of divination.
I have a very large vocabulary and an exceptional memory. I'm also exceptionally well spoken.
Oh, and I will own you at SSBB. Meta Knight all the way.

I have annoying habit of reading graffiti out loud. It makes for embarrassing scenarios in a public toilet.
Let's see... I'm a grammar Nazi, I've written a novel, I like to read the labels of condiment bottles, I go to a fairly prestigious tech school, and I have no superstitions.PurpleRain said:
Also, I don't know what mother jokes, that last sentence needs punctuation including at least one question mark and an accent mark, and you shouldn't randomly switch languages in the middle of a sentence. ;p
Hmm..I think about weird stuff all of the time, my mind wanders to places others wouldn't connect to, I'm capable of taking a step back and making incredibly unbiased statements about almost anything, although there are a few subjects (most of them about certain people) which I cannot do this with. I'm incredibly flexible (can you pull your foot behind your back and then touch your chest with it like that? I doubt it.) I would say I'm ambidextrous but that isn't that unique. I have no pressure points, at all. My voice projects and carries, it is loud, I don't like that because I can't control it very well which leads me to bothering people I don't mean to, plus it's hard for me to whisper to others without having everyone within 10 feet hear me.
After reading most of everyone elses replies i don't feel all that unique and individual anymore
I'm an amalgamation of most of what you guys can do and more.
-I can remember numbers after having only heard them once, that comes in handy whenever someone needs a PLU for a product, they mostly just ask me because I'm sure to have it stored somewhere in my head lol. It also gets irritating though when I'm giving out my mobile number, since I've had several phone numbers and can still remember them all I sometimes have to stop myself and make sure I've got the right one before I give it out.
-My voice is very much like Barry Whites'(shame I can't sing though), I'm not sure if his voice was that deep when he was talking normally but my voice is a monotone of deep vocals lol, and like Kovash i find it extremely hard to whisper, I've had my friends on my case about plenty of times, it's like I'm talking normally when I'm trying my hardest to be quiet.
-I will correct people out of the blue if something they say does not make sense or they mispronounce something, but then that's more their preference how they pronounce it but i still correct them regardless, suffice to say it gets on most peoples' nerves.
-Lol Duck Sandwich, I've actually had the same accusation thrown at me(that i study the dictionary), except it was a true accusation, that doesn't make sense, but anyway yeah, believe it or not i actually used to "study" the dictionary when i was younger. I would pick a word each day and try to use it as many times as i could before that day was up. I didn't get all the way through the dictionary though, I got bored, only got upto about "J" before i stopped but when I'm talking to my friends i will just toss out random words that are right in that context but my friends will all have "WTF" written on their faces lol.
-If i say a word that sounds funny(not funny HAHA), like "awkward" then i will say it over and over again in different tones and pitches. I did that once with the word awkward and couldn't spell it after I'd lobotomised the word.
-I get deja vu almost every other day and can recount when something similar may have happened, even if it was several years ago.
-I'm really in tune with my body, i can feel my bones stretching and creaking and know the exact time i should click them back into place, which is always fun, and they make sick snapping noises when they I do crack them, always good to see the looks on peoples faces when i do
-I'm really skilled with my fingers, in and out of the bedroom I train them daily lol, I'm serious.
-I have an extremely high metabolism, I can shovel tons of crap away, sleep it off and still have my flat stomach the next day.

I harbour no illusions of being unique or special, even the unusual things about me aren't that unusual. Well, some people think the frequency that my body is damaged is oddly high, it's due to a weird combination of a body that's susceptible to wounds and a mind that sees pain as a minor annoyance. No caution.
