A weird fact about yourself

[YankeeVol]

Aren’t you in the service? My brother in law is in the Air Force, and he can too. I think you learn to get sleep wherever you can.

I am. It’s true

 

[YankeeVol]

Have you ever slept standing up in a closet? That would fall under the category of anywhere.

Can’t say that I’ve had the requirement to do so, but could I’m sure if it came to it.

Do you flip out if stuff touches? Like if the green beans touch the potatoes you can’t eat them?

I don't worry about stuff like that. I figure it will all get mixed together in my stomach, and come out as a pile of steaming sh!t.

 

[LouderVol]

God, I always wanted to do that so bad. That is so cool.

Break your left hand? Come on over, I have a hammer here somewhere.

I can't stand prime numbers for such things as thermostat settings. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard. So I can't handle having the thermostat on 67 or 71. (Same for cruise control, passwords requiring numerals, etc.)

I also assign attributes like temperatures and textures to names of colors, and they vary if the spelling varies. So "gray" is a deep velvety red and somewhat warm, like a towel just out of the dryer, while "grey" is silvery cool and damp, like rain.

In America its grAy. In England its grEy.

Not sure if that's 100% true. But its simple.enough for an idiot like me to remember.

my mom had a hair stylist who did this.

lol, that's normal for stylists

Ever since college I have become partially OCD when it comes to patterns on the payment. If I see the pattern and notice how my feet land vs the pattern I subconsciously keep it up. Even skipping steps, long steps, short steps, whatever. Even if I notice I do it it's hard to break off. So if I step on the crack with my left foot I have to step on every crack with my left foot. Never had the issue as a kid, I guess architecture school broke me somehow.

If the pattern is broken, change of pavement or whatever, I dont feel the urge to keep doing it.

Right handed, but left eye dominant (so I shoot left handed). I also kick with my left foot.

Welcome to the club.

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

I eat one thing on my plate at a time

I di the same thing

 

[volfanbill]

I’ve never been able to snap my fingers.

I can’t snap my fingers either. I also can’t wink.

 

[utvolpj]

I count and add almost everything I see. Number of letters in the words on a sign, numbers of words, different colors, shapes, etc. Each punctuation mark had its own value too.

Not that OCD, I just don’t like mixing them together

I had to take growth hormone shots for 8 years to be able to grow.

I can't touch pinky to thumb on either hand.

 

[joevol33]

I go to sleep with the tv on. I can't sleep when it's completely quiet or dark.

My wife does this too. She has gone through 2 TV sets where they didn't work anymore.

I have trouble making the number three sign w/my right hand. Thumb to pinky has never worked right.

When I first started to write, I liked using my left hand. Back then, schools tried to teach all children to be right-handed, so I learned to write with both. I would get poor penmanship grades, because as my right hand tired, I would switch to my left. Breaking my left arm in Pop Warner football practice would get me used to writing with my right hand, and I've done so since. I shoot, fish, et al left-handed.

Fast forward to 2000. As a skydiver, I've always landed leading with my left foot. After breaking my left femur, I've had to adjust to leading with my right foot when landing. Deja vu...

Redhead named Tiffany?

 

[McDad]

Redhead named Tiffany?

No. Mom's name was Anna and her hair was salt n pepper.

Kind of an odd question. Creeper.

 

[volwindy]

I'm ambidextrous, but can't write good left handed, or hit a golf ball good right handed.
I've posted this before, but when eating I never swallow the last bite of anything. I don't know why, and hardly ever notice, but I'll spit it out when I'm done.

Think of how much ribeye you are wasting!

 

[volwindy]

I'm a right-handed person but eat food left handed w/a fork.

I am sometimes the same way. Just depends on what I'm eating. If it requires the use of a knife, I eat left handed with the fork.

Did that make for some awkward moments when you were invited over to someone's house for dinner?

I am. It’s true

Service. You. Thanks man.

May life give you nothing but the best and may God bless you and yours.
