    I am into the most gory and scary things ... All people who are grossed out by gushing blood, surgery, and other things that terrify you, i will most likely think it is "Awesome!" or say "That's Soo Cool!"
    Horror movies are my favorite (especially all the SAW movies!)!

    I have used the word "Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicavolcanoconiosis" to win a pub quiz. The tie-breaker question was "what is the longest word in the english dictionary? the answer was not "antidisestablishmentarianism" as the other team thought :-)

    I love symmetry. I try to position myself at spots where my environment is symmetrical - the center of a room, where certain diagonals intersect etc. Hard to describe.

    Here's a weird fact - not about me: If you bite your fingernails and swallow them, a hand grows in your stomach. True!
  • Lol, Im the same way. Especially going down, gaaah :noway:

    I have to have the volume and thermostat on even numbers



    I have this type of OCD as well. I even do cardio to even numbers either by cals or minutes.

    When I pump my gas, I can not leave it on odd numbers...

    Due to a plate-glass window incident years ago, and having had no insurance at that time to afford the needed corrective surgery, when the little finger on my right hand gets touched, I feel the touch right below my right elbow. If that area near my elbow gets touched, I feel it in my little finger.

    I have the same issue with the little finger on my left hand;; its like the nerve is directly connected to the finger. My trauma was due to a chain link fence though, not plate glass (although, I have gone through a plate glass window also).

    I cannot whistle.
    I've known how to whistle since I was 3.

    I always thought it would have been hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia.... Which just happens to be my favorite word to say out loud.. Ever.
    Though I see your word definitely trumps my favorite in length.

    I have a fear of bugs....i know, most people do....but I seriously become incapacitated around bugs. I had a panic attack in the car over the summer , got in a fetal position covered my head with my hands and screamed at the top of my lungs b/c my mom said she saw a spider. I wish I could get over the phobia, b/c it really hinders alot of things I do...if I see one I become frozen with fear, I won't even go in my basement b/c my husband saw a cricket down there over the summer.

    I have mild OCD, so I do many things that seem odd to other people.

    One weird fact: I have broken my right pinkie toe so many times that it no longer moves. Yay for pointe shoes =)

    I count things constantly. When I run I count to 8 over and over. I set my alarm to have a 3 as the last digit. I don't know why.

    My cat must think it's a dog too, it always has its tongue out, hates catnip, and drools way too much. Oh, Chairman Meow, you kinda rule.
    Chairman Meow? I LOVE IT! :laugh:

    Yeah, she's cool like that.
  • I can visualize and remember strings of numbers, but I cannot remember what my wife wants me to pick up at the store on the way home from work. I can tell you the numbers on every credit card in my wallet, I can tell you every number of every credit card/ID in my wife's purse, her SSI number, and those of my children. I'm screwed, however, if I am asked to stop at the store and get three things. If I don't write them down, I cannot remember what I was supposed to get. It is a 1/2 blessing, 1/2 curse!

    I'm terrified of butterflies. I'm not sure why and they always seem to want to land on me.

    I used to be OCD about washing my hands......100's of times a day I'd do it, lotion made me feel "dirty" and quite often my knuckles would just bleed from being so dry......I got over it though, but it was a year or so of my life that I did that.

    I have noticed that in a public bathroom I will use the same stall every time I need to potty. Missing chunks of paint, familiar writings on the wall, and crude graphics were what made me notice.
  • I still have hard time in English (especially in speaking) even if I studied it for more than 10 years.

    Many people's whose native language is English have a difficult time speaking English. You're doing a great job!

    Haha! See? I wrote "people's whose" which is entirely incorrect! **distracted by Project Runway**

    Thanks :smile:

    What is the correct way to put it then? I even don't know the difference of which, whom and whose. :embarassed:

    All my movies have to be in alphabetical order, but not mixing videos and dvds.
    Books in a series have to be in order.
    I turn the tv sound level to 0 before turning it off. If I turn it off before doing that, I will turn it back on to do so. This doesn't apply to the iPod dock though.
    Everything in the car needs to be turned off, before switching off the ignition (fan, wipers, demister, radio).

    My pinky toe is an inch shorter than my ring finger toe. I can't fall asleep without music playing. I hate the quiet, it drives me crazy.

    When I was younger, I had to always start walking with my left foot, and if the flooring surface changed, my left foot always had to be the first one to step on the new floor. After years, I've mostly broken myself of this habit, but every now and then I'll stop short so that my left foot can take the first step on a new floor.

    I found out I see the world of colors differently and some not at all. Example the only number I can see in this test is #25. The rest just looks like colored dots in a circle :frown:

    I like washing clothes, I like folding clothes, but I HATE putting them away. There's a pile of folded clothes sitting on my dresser right now....
