When I used to spend a lot of time on buses, I would look out of the window for the entire journey, imagining how I would traverse the landscape on a super-duper skateboard type device. For example, imagine looking out of your bus/car window and seeing the landscape transformed into a Super Mario type 2D constantly scrolling platform game landscape. If you had a skateboard (just like in Wonderboy) you could skate along a rail, ollie up onto a telegraph pole, bounce of successive signs or car rooftops and so on. I still do this if I find myself a passenger on a long journey. How bloody bizarre.
you are exactly the same as me, if i know im going to have a bus journey i have a few pints if i have time though, whatever time of day it is, because i really hate bus journeys. if im a passenger in a car i always do this, unless the person driving makes the journey more enjoyable than the normal boring journey, or theres a chick in the car distracting me
When I'm home alone I never walk up the stairs, I run at full pelt, sometimes jumping several steps at one time. Should I need to traverse the living room I actually sprint in, jump over the footstool and do a sideways "heelclick" in mid air. When I get to the bottom 3 or 4 steps I put my palm on the banister nob and jump in a 180 degree arc onto the hallway floor. I constanly throw knives/forks/tools/whatever I have to hand in the air like a majorette would with a baton and catch them. If you ever speak to me in real life you'll notice I do it with my mobile, keys, pens, whatever I have to hand.
i do all of that, i think the throwing thing for me comes from working with knifes all the time, i always catch them, same with stuff like hot soldering irons, screwdrivers, anything. keys and mobile too
one thing that really annoys me is that although my room is a mess i will know where everything is, and if someone moves something, after i have turned off light to go to bed i will literally sprint half way accross room and dive into bed
if someone moves something this can hurt a lot when i end up falling head first into the wall behind the bed.
I always remember funny things at inapropriate times and laugh really loudly at them (makes me look very weird). Also anything i hear i always hear it in a sexual way.
If im not using the right tool for a job i get so stressed i either:
a) wont be able to finish the job. or
b) will end up doing it wrong.
I always have a song in my head and will be tapping my foot to it, this really annoys some people.
Im a complete perfectionist when it comes to food (again from being a chef i think) when my mum or dad is cooking at home and i often see my mum use her fingers on everything, it makes me feel physically sick.
Whenever i see a fit chick i always within seconds have worked out what underwear she is wearing, although i can have entire conversations etc without ending up looking at her body once.
I hate having anything in my wallet smaller than a 10p, 5p i can just live with, but pennies and 2ps i hate to the extent i throw them away if theres no charity box for them by the till i get them from as change. When i can i like to always pay with the exact change if i have it (i dont do it slowly, but this always seems to annoy some people, who think i should carry around the change from a fiver instead of getting rid of some of the change i have).
I hate the new breed of childrens TV programs, and really cant see how they are meant to help children learn (teletubbies, and some others i cant think of) what happened to all the classics like magic roundabout, sessamy street, etc.
It really annoys me being stuck behind anything when im driving, i dont nessessarilarly like to drive quickly, but i like to drive at my own speed not what someone infront of me is doing.
If someone ever speaks to a woman like shes a piece of **** it annoys me so much that sometimes i have to leave the bar im at etc, because i know that if i stay there the person talking like that likely woudlnt walk away.
I feel so tired i dont concentrate well all day, then come 11pm or so i feel completely awake and cannot sleep.
I pay for my own phoneline at home, and my sister is too lazy to walk upstairs to talk to me, and instead she will phone me from the other phone line, this annoys me and sometimes i end up swearing at her, which i would never do otherwise. - i dont mind just been pranked once which is what my mum will often do if my meals ready, but anything more than that annoys me.
I go out most nights, and people who sit at college and claim they went out last night to whereever i was and i know for a fact they werent there, it gets me agro, they will almost always claim to of gone there and then got layed etc, and i know they were never even there - why do people think they have to lie just because they dont want to go out in the evenings, or enjoy just watching TV or whatever.
I also cant stand it when i see someone on a motorbike wearing a turban, this is the one of the stupidest thigns i see, and i cant believe that the country allows this to happen.
The last thing im going to bother posting for now, is that i hate it when safeways decide they want to send me the same leaflet 4 days in a row every week.
think this must be the biggest post i have ever posted tbh, might edit it later but i've got to cook.
