what's something you do that you get called weird/strange/"off" for? me? Well, im always cold. My temperature is always a balmy 99.6degrees, and yet i shiver if it's below 76 outside. Layers of clothing dont help. So....i do high knees or jumping jacks to get warm. In line at the theater, in a parking lot, even in the freezer section at walmart. It leads to some pretty hard stares, but i get warm and life goes on :) oh, i also brush my teeth in the shower. People think thats odd. what about you?

    Lol. I've also been really cold as of lately
    everyone has contributed it with the weight loss thing. Oh and also.. I brush my teeth in the shower too. Saves time and water and if it's weird, I don't wanna be ..err normal? Is that the opposite of weird?

    I get weird stares and stuff also because I looooove the smell of books. Even in public (especially places like Books-a-Million), if I find a book with freshly laminated pages, I'll take a big ol' whiff. Same thing goes with letters in the mail, but I've been warned not to sniff those.. y'know.. in case someone has laced a letter with anthrax.

    How does brushing your teeth in the shower save time or water? Are you soaping yourself with the other hand?

    I drink my coffee through a straw. I don't really see it as that weird because I drive a lot and it's just easier... but I am always asked about it and given odd expressions when people notice.

    It doesn't do either, however it keeps you in the hot water instead of doing it when you are standing outside the shower naked or wrapped in a towel and are cold.

    Nice...I like the feeling of the paper in books especially bibles.

    Oh - and I smell EVERYTHING new.... even when I'm still in the store.

    (My daughter feels most awkward when I start smelling new panties or shoes.)

    Have you had your thyroid checked. Being old all the time is a symptom of a goofy thyroid.

    I'm always freezing too. My boyfriend HATES it. And I get called weird not so much for a behavior, but for this fear I have. I'm scared of horses. Not because they're big and muscular, but because i'm afraid they are going to bite my Achilles tendon. Yes, my fear is that specific. And it's weird. And I know it.

    Me too! I'll run my fingers all across the pages just to hear the little crinkle noise or sometimes that slight squeak that comes from messing with laminated paper.

    Those get me too---not much as paper.. but I always sniff new clothes and shoes.

    What makes me weird?? Where shall I start....Well, I am a 35 year old female and still enjoy fart jokes and potty humor. I have a language specifically to use with my dogs. I hate face tattoos but have this weird celebrity crush on Lil' Wayne. I am sure that will get me started, but I will probably come up with more.

    I don't clear the snow off of my hood then drive fast so it feels like I am in a blizzard (when there is an actual blizzard, I don't go outside).

    I have this strange obsession with getting the timing of my windshield wipers optimized for the rain.

    I'm with you on the cold. Typically, if I'm comfortable, everyone else in the room is sweating. I wear layers all summer because it's so cold inside restaurants, stores, and my office. Strangely enough, I get really hot when I sleep and often have to shed all of my blankets and always sleep under a fan.

    Other than that, I have about 1,000 quirks that make me special. The only absolute rule I live by is the right to change my mind about anything at anytime. I don't know if that makes me annoying or fun. :)

    I brush my teeth in the shower too because I prefer warm water. My ex also nicknamed me Butterball since I'm eternally cold. He said snuggling up to me was like snuggling up to a frozen turkey. So....not that weird!

    I like to set my clocks one hour and ten minutes ahead...
    I've been known to drink pickle juice and vinegar...
    I listen to ganster rap when I work out...
    I find Snoop Dogg unbelievably sexy...
    I think stereotypes have *some* validity...
