Mine is that I pour the milk before the cereal. people are always extremely confused by that.
I eat cereal with a fork. No I will not explain further
As I have seen cereals the size of biscuits be sold to be used as cereal, I can perfectly understand.
When eating pizza at a restaurant with a fork and a knife I start cutting bite size triangles from the center of the pizza, it’s pure chaos and people lose their mind when they see me haha
I love this. I hope you also do it in an ever widening spiral?
Chaotic-natural !
I read the second half of this in Heath Ledger’s joker voice
I eat the entire apple, starting at the top and going in circles to the bottom.
Are you a horse?
Neigh :P
Unless you eat the stem and core, how else would you eat it?
When I eat pie, I eat it in layers: 1st the top crust or topping, then the filling, then the crust.
Sock shoe sock shoe.
I have to test if the pants/sock/shoe combo works before committing to the whole process a second time.
What kind of incompatibilties have you experienced?
Sock is too exposed at the top of the shoe, leading to an unexpected clash of color or style, sock is squashed up the leg by the boot and disrupts the natural fit of the pant, slouch sock (the worst), and sometimes the shoe makes the sock seam really obvious around my toenails for no apparent reason.
I microwave rice or noodles with water to make them perfect.
That isn’t normal? I thought that was common leftovers knowledge, lol
Leftovers maybe, but I’m referring to the first time cooking it. I’ve had lots of strange looks for it.
The bag of medium grain rice i have had microwave instructions on it. I hate using a microwave so I’ve never done it but seems like you aren’t alone
I need some more info on this. So you have uncooked rice and put it with with water in the microwave to cook it?
Yeah so I take a microwave safe bowl. Two cups of rice, and four cups of water. Microwave on high for ten minutes, stir it. Another ten minutes depending on how it looks. Comes out perfect most of the time. I have the best results with Jasmine rice but it works with regular too.
It only takes me 18 minutes on the stove top. How can the microwave take longer?
microwace ovens come in a variety of wattages some are low power and some are heavy duty. Think a college dorm small microwave vs the 7-11 nuke. all about the wattage.
I do five minutes on high, 12-15 on medium.
using a microwave is the only way I can actually cook rice perfectly. I don’t own a rice cooker and stovetop is just a sticky mess
Biking instead of driving places, especially in the winter.
I like eating lemons, I’ve had a few today
Your dentist will love you.
How do you eat them? Like orange wedges?
waiting in line when there are self checkouts available. I just dont like doing it.
abandoning self checkouts because the machine is yelling at you and the workers are busy elsewhere. they say self-checkout lane 7 is still blinking to this day.
“Remove item from bagging area!”
"Please wait, help is on the way… "Funnily enough I tend to find that if you just pick up your bags and walk away a member of staff is arrives pretty quickly. Wild, right?
yo I fucking hate that rude robot lady
I like the interaction.
I use the self checkouts specifically to avoid interaction.
Exist
My odd habbit that I hope one day someone will call me out on is that I only scoop half a jar of peanut butter or any other sandwich spread from one half of the container. Ill dig and clean our the entire side of the container and then try to scoop the rest out from the bottom of the other side to leave the pristine untouched top-side of the jar as the last part of the food that is used.
This is a reference to Calvin & Hobbs, but ive been doing it for 20 years… So… Yah…
I eat kiwis with the peel
Australians are next
You’re going to eat Australians with the peel??
You seem confused (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
Do you remove the feathers?
Of course not, that’s where most of the fibre is found. I’d avoid the beak though.
The skin is also delicious, like a concentration of sourness mixed with satisfying resistance to my bite.
I use my indicators when reversing out of a parking spot. It’s the way I was taught, and it makes sense to me, but apparently it’s weird.
Even better… reverse park.
Yeah I hate having easy access to my boot as well
Yeah, everybody loves it when you clog up the lane slowly backing your car in.
Kind of like the way you do while backing out?
No, since there’s much more room while backing out.
It’s the exact same parking slot no matter which way you’re driving in/out.
I disagree that it overall takes any more time no matter which way you park but one thing is for sure and it’s that backing in is safer. It’s way more common for people to get hit by a car that’s backing out of parking slot that by one backing in. You can’t see your surroundings when backing out because of the cars on your both sides but I can see the entire parking slot when I’m backing in.
It’s faster to drive forward into a parking spot than to back into one. It’s also faster to back out of a parking spot to back into one. Therefore, it’s never faster to back into a parking spot.
Skill issue
How’s that work?
A driving lane has significantly more length and width than a parking spot.
But that length and width doesn’t change whether you’re gong forwards or backwards.
Whether you back in or out the space is the same.
Fuck 'em.
I do too. It makes sense I think, that flashing light could be the difference between a car noticing you or not if the timing is otherwise perfect for a crash.
You know what I hate? People using their hazards to indicate that they’re loading/unloading. You can already indicate towards the pavement to do the same thing and it actually says “hey I’m just pulled in here” instead of using the “something’s gone wrong” lights.
Eh, I can understand it though. Say you pull over to the right, have your right blinker on, someone behind you will not see the left light lit up, and if you are already stopped your brake lights aren’t on.
With hazards, the full car is displayed.
If it’s coming from a place of safety I think it’s sensible. I so don’t see it as particularly dangerous to adopt, other drivers slow down at most and see you and ignore you at least
That said, if we’re coming from the place of safety, usually these instances the person should just fully park instead of pulling over with hazards.
I can understand it, it still bothers me though. I think it’s mainly because most of the time it’s taxi drivers parking in the worst spots.
Brits seem to really love when I heavily salt tea and heat it in the microwave. I top it off by saying “Cheerio! Pip pip!” in my best southern drawl.
Don’t know why…
I think they’re amused at the person rather than the action. There’s a better chance of finding rocking horse shit than a Brit truly saying “Pip, Pip”, unless they’re from the US or an actor in a 1950’s black and white WW2 themed budget film.
I had a friend who used to say “pip pip”. I also think you missed the joke.
I sigh loudly. Not vocally, but I take in a deep breath and then release it quickly. It’s a tension release to me kinda like yawning but everyone around me seems to think I’m upset or frustrated when I do it.
Me too!
I hate it!
I do the exact same thing. Back in highschool people used to point it out or look at me weird or assume I was upset. My boyfriend asks me “What’s wrong?” and I respond with “Uhh…nothing?”
I’ve done it for as long as I can remember and it feels like it relaxes my nerves.
I sigh normally for the same reason, and people react similarly.
Ever since we were graced with COVID-19, I frequently find myself taking deep breaths and exhaling as you described just to see if my lung function feels right. Realizing now that I don’t even need to be infected with COVID-19 for it to have a significant impact on my mental health.
