<p>All girls do that...</p>
<p>sheesh.-->Yes, yes, I'm saying this purposely, since we just had a useless discussion about it.</p>
<p>I'm now wondering if you realize that your location should factor into this discussion. I'll bring it up. I think the fact that you even used "sheesh" to describe your location shows how very entwined your psyche is with that word. </p>
<p>And not all girls do that. I explained to you why I type it. I don't say that in real life because people understand when things are supposed to be jokes or not. I only type it out. If I said that in real life, I'd probably slap myself in the face to snap out it. Either people get it or they don't. If they don't understand inflection, then I don't need to talk to them anyway. </p>
<p>A slight joke. Sheesh...</p>
<p>I say "Jeez" a lot more than I say "Sheesh". Just thought you should know. Jeez.</p>
<p>I associate feelings with time. For example, I associate 5:31 P.M. with a feeling. But, 5:32 P.M.'s "feel" is different from 5:31 P.M. Generally, I associate "good" times with lower numbers [less than 20]. Thus, 7:05 A.M. is much better than 6:55 A.M.</p>
<p>@Sunshineyday: Right then. I can certainly stop saying the word sheesh, if you really want me to, it's not really anything subconcious, I really think about it when I type it or say it. The location thing, I just added sheesh in there to add the humor of someone who is frustrated, I think it fits in nicely. Sheesh is a very versatile word.</p>
<p>Hmmmm.....benefits of Jeez v. Sheesh.
Jeez is more common and nyjunior has described "sheesh" as a word that helped him attract and score w/ members of the opposite sex. (Actually, he didn't really say that. I just made it up.)
Sheesh is blasphemous and so is jeez.
Sheesh is versatile. </p>
<p>Sheesh/Jeez. My head hurts from all this thinking. I'll be back in a little while.</p>
<p>EDIT: No, don't stop saying it!!!! I don't really want you to!!!!! Let me add versatility to the pro sheesh list.</p>
<p>if my ponytail isn't high enough, i feel gross.</p>
<p>i think about food 24/7. but i'm not fat.</p>
<p>im obsessed with college confidential.</p>
<p>i smile whenever i feel uncomfortable, which is often.</p>
<p>whenever people talk about anything....sexual (gah i have trouble typing that word) i feel extremely uncomfortable.</p>
<p>i wish the whole world was in perfect order.</p>
<p>I can never look at someone performing. Vestiges left from my dancing days, I guess. I just get all nervous and embarrassed for them. Watching American Idol is quite a challenge.</p>
<p>I havn't had any appetite since Prom night ended. I dont know why, but I had to force myself to eat 1-2 meals a day. I'm just not hungry anymore.</p>
<p>i come up with awesome ideas that relate to all my theories, but i don't write them down.</p>
<p>and then i promise myself i will buy a mini-notebook for my pocket.</p>
<p>but i forget :(</p>
<p>^^ Me too--It's so irritating at times but there's only myself to blame for it. </p>
<p>Another quirk: I cannot cross my legs or sit cross-legged but instead find comfortable positions that others usually find uncomfortable. Like I'll sit on a chair with one leg on the chair normally and the other kneeling on the floor. And I'll feel completely normal and comfortable.</p>
<p>I smile when I'm nervous or in an awkward situation. I also sometimes feel like smiling randomly in really serious situations, just because the atmospehre is so tense!</p>
<p>I smile all the time. Practically literally.
It gets awkward if I'm relating a particularly sad story but then everyone thinks I'm really happy about it and it just makes things weird.</p>
<p>I cannot stand watching piano recitals. I think it's because one time I messed up big time (completely forgot how to start the song) in front of a huge audience in 5th grade; I just went back to my seat with the audience still clapping. I've stopped taking piano lessons since. :(</p>
<p>I don't really have a quirk 'cause all I have done this year is sleep --> and when I am not doing that (most times) I am half dead :confused:</p>
<p>Here are my Top 10... that I remember right now... in no particular order:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>I have to sit in the corner at a restaurant, or the seat at the table that is most "corner-like" because I don't want people behind me.</p></li>
<li><p>When I get really nervous, I just start counting everything. Like if I'm in a car, I'll just start counting every other car I can see.</p></li>
<li><p>I only eat finger foods with two fingers - thumb and index... like pinchers.</p></li>
<li><p>Sometimes I'll start a pattern like "abba" and I'll have to balance it (abba-baab) and keep balancing that until it gets to long to remember (abba-baab-baab-abba--baab-abba-abba-baab--...)</p></li>
<li><p>Instead of that razor-arm car thing, I sometimes imagine this rope with a hook on the end coming out of the side of the car to wrap around a pole to help the car turn... like the Batmobile.</p></li>
<li><p>I do that thing where I think of a comeback 15 minutes too late, and then I'm ready for next time! lol.</p></li>
<li><p>I can only eat Skittles/M&Ms etc. of the same color - never mixed. And I save the best flavor (in the case of Skittles) for last every time.</p></li>
<li><p>I'm also paranoid that I'm going to get hearing loss/damage and am constantly turning down the volume on my gadgets... and when we have fire drills at school I look like a dork because I put my fingers in my ears and almost nobody else does.</p></li>
<li><p>I cope with really awkward and/or sad situations by cracking up into hysterics. Like at funerals.</p></li>
<li><p>I used to do the laser/corner thing and the don't-step-on-a-crack thing all the time when I was younger.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>I remember this thread. lol. I made up some bizarre quirks and no one even commented on them.</p>
<p>I don't want to do anything that will hurt me. Things like:</p>
<p>-Wearing heels or even standing on tippytoe, or having my heel at a higher level than my toes.</p>
<p>-I don't straighten my hair at all.</p>
<p>-I avoid trans fat, even in foods I love.</p>
<p>"8. I'm also paranoid that I'm going to get hearing loss/damage and am constantly turning down the volume on my gadgets... and when we have fire drills at school I look like a dork because I put my fingers in my ears and almost nobody else does."</p>
<p>-Me too. I plug my ears all the time and don't go into loud dances.</p>
<p>Also:</p>
<p>"i often time enact complete and perfect conversations in my head, can think up all sorts of witty things, rhyme, rap, invent, whatever, but when it comes time to actually speak to other people i lose all my profundity."</p>
<p>"20 minutes or sometimes more after i need a funny/witty/humerous/scathing remark/comeback, ill come up with a PERFECT one and hope to God that the situation arises again, cuz now im prepared"</p>
<p>I do that too!!</p>
<p>The door always has to be closed if I'm going to be away from my room longer than a short period, because of spiders.</p>
<p>haha i too make up witty conversations in my head, but then i take about 10 minutes to decide whether i'll speak or not, and if i do speak, it comes out as "uhhhhh" :(.
my main quirk is long fingernails. i need to clip my fingernails as soon as they grow, and i have to clip them down to the quick. and when my friends (especially musicians) have long fingernails, i have to tell them to clip their nails.</p>
<p>Mine:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>I can take two 3-hour exams in 20 minutes :cool: Yup. Drives everyone else crazy.</p></li>
<li><p>I don't EVER read, I skim --> so I get really annoyed when people read terribly slowly...</p></li>
<li><p>I can't stand it when someone has incorrect grammer in a formal document :eek:</p></li>
<li><p>Angers me very much when I see people getting hit or slapped --> don't really know why :confused:</p></li>
</ul>
