Weird things you do

[Francis's Hairpiece]

When I'm in a movie theatre, no matter what movie is playing or how much I'm enjoying it, I find my mind drawn to the speakers on the wall, and the beams on the ceiling, and I imagine crawling around from beam to beam, and how I would get down. I usually lose 10 minutes, give or take, per movie.

I usually watch a movie 6or7 times minimum due to the lapses, and I will see a new scene
every time. It pisses me off but I can't help myself.

Lately when I am bouncing on the weekends I try to use as many phrases from Skyrim as possible.

Bar Fly: So, do you have another job besides this one?
Me: I work for Belethor at the General Goods store.

Whenever I see a small metal panel on a wall I think of R2D2 using his arm to open the door in Star Wars.

[Caged Great]

When walking on tile floors I try to avoid the grout lines if possible

[Ashasx]

When I watch movies at home, I seem to pause them every 5-10 minutes when I see an actor and think "where do I know him from!?" or "is that X?". So I go over to IMDB, figure out who the actor is, and then continue scrolling through movies I haven't seen for 10 years.

It takes me a while to get through one movie.

[To Be Quite Honest]

When I am in a conversation, with a group or just one individual, I'll sometimes use the topics as we are discussing them and turn them into a movie scene in my head. Then I start to giggle at the great funny scene. Then people stare at me and think I'm crazy. I'm not crazy. I'm not.

I meow at my cat, basically every time I see him.

[Bork]

I constantly type words out in my head. For example, I'll be watching a Flames game and hear the announcer say a player's name. I will then type the name out in my head as I would on a keyboard multiple times. Back before I could type I would handwrite the words. Incidentally, this compulsion greatly improved my typing skills!

When I poop at home, I take my shirt off.

I poke my cat in the nose constantly; in fact I am doing it now as I type.

Weirdly, I find this hilarious.

I lock the bathroom for even if I'm home alone

[Flames_Gimp]

when cruising around I sometimes dodge ants, for some reason I try not to run them over.

[PowerPlayoffs06]

I "drum" with my teeth when I'm listening to music. Basically click them to the beat and do fills and stuff. I've been doing it so long that my dentist commented on the weird wear to my teeth and asked if I grind them, but nope, it's from the clicking.


When I'm a passenger in a car I'll watch out the window and imagine a stick man who runs alongside the car, jumping and dodging obstacles that we pass or skating along on power lines and doing tricks when they slope up to connect to a pole and he gets some good air time. Essentially like a real life side-scroller video game.

[Ben_in_Canada]

I usually substitute now with meow. (have been since the 1st time I saw Super Troopers).
I tend to get away with it because of my accent

[MrMastodonFarm]

Anytime there is an automatic sliding door I put my hand forward and make a Jedi motion.

Pretty much, every time.

[parch]

Whenever I'm watching a movie or TV show, I inhale while a character I like is on the screen, and exhale when a character I don't like is on the screen. I don't do it subconsciously, but as soon as I think about it, I can't help it. Then I get kind of frustrated when either one of the characters is on the screen for too long and I have to do the opposite.

[Regulator75]

When removing the sponsored ads on facebook, I'll always choose 'sexually explicit' as the reason why I'm removing them.

Everytime I see a dog in a car by himself (the owner has run into a store or something), I bark a couple times at the dog.

I used to do this all the time, but it has seemingly gone away.

When I'm a passenger in a car on the highway and I'm bored, sometimes if I see a chip or some other mark on the window I play a game where I have to move my head slightly back and forth so that the mark/chip dodges in and out of the centre "dash line".

I do this too.
I also pick up my cat so that she can sit flatly across my two hands and fly her around the room like a spaceship, holding her up to objects that she can't usually reach so that she can smell new things. I narrate these actions as I refer to her as "hovercat". We both seem to enjoy this.
