    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.

    I go to sleep with the TV on...and I can't stand the quiet either....if im home alone, TV is on too, even if im not watching it.

    One that isn't mentioned on this list....The bills in my wallet (or register when I worked at a register) had to be facing the same directions...larger bills first (not that I have many of those)

    Some words will make me seriously squeamish. Just a few that make me quiver are: fleshy, moist and sinewy.

    My buddy hates the word 'girth', so we use it as often as possible.

    I hate the words oozy, ooey, and gooey. I also hated the French word for 'egg'
  • You're not alone... I only see 25 and 56! LOL

    I know words in Russian that I don't know in English.

    I have to check every grape for coloring, hardness, and bruises before I put it in my mouth.

    I hate squishy grapes. :angry:

    I do not use escalators.

    Was pushed from top of escalator as a child, falling...falling...hit hard, on the floor,and i have escalator teeth scars on the front of my leg where it shredded my skin down to the bone as it scraped me on the way down.

    Good thing elevators are everywhere.

    I had early stages of skin cancer before 40
  • I can tie a knot in a cherry stem using my tongue. :tongue:

    Me too! Although now that I'm married and pushing 40, it doesn't get near the response it used to, lol.

    I get nervous getting on/off escalators
    I get anxious almost claustrophobic in elevators withtoo many people in them.

    And I can flip my fingers and make them look like they have no bones. Cool party trick.

    I don't get many responses either. Only one I remember is my brother-in-law said "That can come in handy". lol

    Whenever I read, I count the letters to see if they add up to a multiple of 3. If they don't, I go back and add punctuation and the dots over i and j to get it to a multiple of 3. And I'm a speed reader.

    I sing to my dog. I take "regular" songs and make up words on the spot that include her name or stories about her. I will sometimes catch myself doing this when other people are around. My good friends don't really seem to blink, but it definitely catches people who don't know me very well off guard.

    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 :-)

    My husbands grandpa had Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicavolcanoconiosis, which few people have heard of, so of course my husband likes to challenge people to longest word contests.

    I will only sleep on white sheets.
  • I'm legally blind in my left eye (born this way, not a lazy eye) and have almost superhuman vision in the right eye.

    Me too. I hate any kind of bruised squishy over ripe fruit. yuck.

    I even prefer bananas slightly green so they're firm.

    I will not eat any food even a day past the expiration date.

    I could read and write in cursive when I was 4.

    I'm scared of roaches and Daddy long legs spiders. No other spiders bother me though.

    I have to eat things by color and from lowest amount to highest amount. IE: 1 blue M&M 4 pink M&M's 10 brown M&M'S etc.

    I have a phobia of loose hair. I gag when I see it, unless it's my own hair I am fine.

    I have a tiny pin hole in the roof of my mouth and sometimes I can suck air through it and I squeak and sound like a mouse.

    Loose hair is truly nasty. There's a weirdo woman where i work who collects loose hair in a plastic cup. God only friggin knows why, damned freak. But I can barely go into her office, knowing it's in there.

    I worked in a Meat Department for 7 years. 6 of those I was the only female in my department - I was called 'sir' a lot :/ Oddly, I can tolerate the smell of rotting dead decomposing flesh over the smell of my 4 month old's diapers.

    I grease my feet in my running shoes.

    I am afraid of natural body's of water, I don't want anything alive to touch me.

    I have a thing for guys that can sing, even if they are ugly. lol
