What are your little quirks?
 

This kind of goes with some of the other topics on the board. What are the little things that you do that people joke around with you about?

Like, I always get cracked on because I ask weird questions. I also watch kiddie shows and movies, like Arthur on PBS, and non-stop Crocodile Hunter. I also make up little sayings, and for awhile, my retort to anyone else's wise crack was "I will so kill you!"

What are everyone elses sayings or quirks that others joke about?

(Please someone reply so I don't feel stupid-this is the first time I've posted a topic! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif)

"To the world I promise temperance and insight and courage...."

Haha yeah - I can be really random sometimes - that my friends are like "Haha you are so goofy Car!" The prob is, is that I don't mean to be funny, that in the end, I'm thinking, "How was that funny?," while all my friends are dying laughing.

I also say "like" and "hella" a lot.

I watch Animal Planet like it is going out of style. I love it. It could be the dumbest show in the world, but if there is some form of animal on it, I will watch it. I also have that random comment problem. I usually say what I am thinking about and sometimes it is really weird, or makes no sense at all, but I say it anyway. I also really enjoy making very strange noises in a crowded mall. When people look at me I give them a look or say, "Hey, what are you looking at. It is legal to make weird noises in a crowded place. Mind you own business!" And then I make another really weird noise. Screwing with peoples minds is really fun. Well pretty much anything that makes me look retarted I enjoy doing. Like the other day, a friend of mine and I pulled into an extreemly busy gas station. We stopped short of the pump and acted like we ran out of gas. We made a huge production about pushing his jeep to the pump. We even had several people help us push. Then when we got to the pump we took the jeep out of neutral and drove off without ever pumping any gas. Ok, I'm weird.

Wow - that's crazy because I do that too. I'll just being thinking about something random - fire off a question - and suddenly everyone is laughing. Oh well, I'm trying to embrace my weirdness. Otherwise the world would be too boring.

Newbie, also I was told while travelling in Europe that their favorite thing to make fun of us for is the way we always say "Like, you know, i mean" over and over.

LOL. Veruca, I say "you know" a lot too http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif . I try to stop, but it's hard!!

I am the king of practical jokes. Two weeks ago I attended a christining at a cathiolic church with my friend beth (it was her niece) Beth is always telling me how we are going to hell for our wickedness. Well, I was ahead of her as we entered the church and I had a small film canister and it had some crushed dry ice I had gotten from the grocery store. As I entered the church, I opened the canister in one hand and dumped the dry ice in the holy water as I dipped my hand in it to do that cross thing you christians do. So by the time beth (who was right behind me) put her fingers inthe holy water, it was smoking and bubbeling. She freaked out and really thought it was something to do with her. I played it up for a bit and then let her off the hook. Everyone keeps telling me I am going to burn in hell for that stunt. I thought it was funny, and no one else really saw. There was only about 20 people at the service. Hahahahhhaha!

I love kiddy shows, too. I used to be into the Teletubbies. I even have stuffed Laa-Laa and Po http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

I have angle-cut bangs that sometimes cover my left eye, and my friends tease me about it. I don't care, I *love* my haircut!

Coming from a roman catholic family and being a rather...ahhh...independent child, I am dying! This is maybe one of the greatest pranks I have ever heard! Man, mad props. If I were there, I would have laughed myself retarded!

I quote movie lines and often recite the lines along with the movies I am watching. This drives my sisters/friends/family crazy!

I say "whatever" and "like" a lot too. I change purses everyday, and when I go to the mall I just end up buying something even though my friends and i are there for a movie or something else.

I like girly movies like Center Stage and the guys at work tease me about it all the time. I also have a thing for cheesy,old love songs. I have like this cd compilation that I put on when I chill...reminds me of childhood!

And I have the biggest addiction to Hello Kitty stuff. WHenever we pass by a Sanrio store I JUST have to come in.

I say "like" a lot and my boyfriend likes to tease me about it. I can also be a bit of an airhead.

Example: We're in a Chinese restaurant, and my big sis reads her fortune. "There are great surprises in store for you." She pauses and then adds, "in bed." Totally being serious, I say, "Does it really say in bed?"

Yeah I really got picked on about that one. I also watched a movie the other day where this guy has flashbacks... some scenes are in the present, but most are in the past. My comment... "Those two women look an awful lot alike" when actually they're the same person.

And my childish addiction is all things Snoopy.

Eghh, that sounds like me a lot too....I tend to take things pretty literally sometimes, which makes for good entertainment, or so I'm told http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif !

My friends alwys tease about brushing my hair. I ALWAYS do it...I can't help it though, I hate when it gets tangly. So whenever any sisters need a brush they ask me first. I have like a million of those cute, small ones in my purse. Also, I am really bad at directions even though I have lived in the same state my whole life...so I always get teased about getting lost. Someone has to be in the car with me if I am going some place new because I'll get lost if someone doesn't tell me where to turn...it can be quite interesting!

Haha-

I take FOREVER to eat. I mean, seriously. I have gotten used to cold food. When we go out to eat, everyone makes me decide and tell the waiter when he takes the drink orders so I can get a head start. I will never hear the end of it. Even though the head table eats first at wedding receptions, I'm sure they'll have to wait on me to finish to cut the cake. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

That is annoying if you have never seen the movie before. After that, it is funny reciting lines in front of people who haven't seen it.
