Stupid Quirks?

[gizzy32]

We all have our dumb little things we do that to others would seem weird or annoying. I can't think of anything major I do, but there are some little quirks I have done since I can remember. For one, I microwave my meals after they are cooked. It does not matter if it came right out of the oven, once I make my dinner or anything hot i still put it in the microwave till it has steam coming, ya that is weird i guess, lol. I don't know if this is a quirk, but when I watch sports and I am alone I sit or lay on the floor instead of the chair, I have no idea why, it's like a superstition or something. Ok these are not that good, but I wanted to hear some of your little quirks, we wont' laugh, haha.

Flmagi, you'd NEVER get a picture straight in my house. My house is over 100 years old and none of the rooms are square. I just have to "visually" straighten them. I won a bet with a neighbor that you CAN put a ceiling border up in an extremely crooked house and make it look good. I've done it in 2 rooms. Hey vic, my best friend's female dog humps the female cat all the time. How's that for some comical action?...=)

Sunny:
I'm glad I gave you a chuckle! I laugh now, but at the time I was not so happy being woken that way!  LOL!!!!

[Sunnyd210]

OMG helpin that is wayyyyy tooo funny!!!

[HelpinUtah]

My cat, Daisy, has to bite my chin in the middle of the night to get my attention so I'll pet her!  UGH!  That's her quirk!  LOL!!!

I used to always have to have a glass of ice water by my bed.  Well, one night a few years ago, my baby, Robear (cat who passed away at 17), decided he had to drink from my cup.  Well, my cup was on my headboard and he stuck his whole head in the cup to get a drink and I guess got stuck and so he freaked and I ended up with ice cold water all over my head!  It woke me so fast!  Man, that was cold!  Since then, I now have a water bottle next to my bed instead!  LOL!!!!

omg giz dont get me going on humping dogs, lmao! Our male shepherd "puppy" is about 10 or 11 months old now......and....omg he humps EVERYTHING. Your leg, the table leg, his OWN leg, LOL.  Ive had to actually throw out a bunch of large stuffed animals because he had dragged them into his big dog cage and had a lovely night with them, LOL. The worst was this HUGE sttuffed gorilla i had. OMG i thought I was gonna have to BURN that thing after he was done with it, out of fear the garbage man might even vomit on himself after seeing what the dog did to it, rofl.  This dog needs NEUTERED soon!!!

I have a golden retriever (male) best dog I ever had...everytime we "go for a ride" he has to take a toy with him...he'll run all over the house looking for one, then stand by the door, then pace around the house til I'm ready..if I'm not ready he'll start barking (toy in mouth) and stand by the door..I open the door and he dashes out to my truck, waits for me to open the door..(I have a 4 door truck)..and goes right to sleep...sometimes he'll do the stick the head out the window thing...if we go to any place that's a drive up (drug store, etc...he expects a treat from them and is very polite when he gets it..funny when I go to the drive up ATM...he doesn't get anything and is very disappointed.

On the other hand...he follows me all over the house, sleeps next to me and while he loves everyone in the house, seems to be very attached to me...I don't know what I'd do without him

Actually Giz it is quite normal =) sometimes they do that out of excitement and sometimes its a dominance thing!! Mollie went through that little phase but I think she was just excited she stopped that now thank god!!

[gizzy32]

LMAO! Ok so this is normal I guess, it is funny to see. I guess I don't need therapy for Xena then, whew

[VicUser]

Gizzy, I have two Golden Retrievers that are female and they hump each other frequently. It is funny in a way, we yell at them and they look at us like WHAT.

NG, Mollie does the same thing with her toys. We got them new babies the other day that were on clearance from V-Day. Suzie stole Mollies and pulled all the hair off of it's head, it was a lion, now it looks like a monkey, and we have hair clumps everywhere.

[gizzy32]

My female dog has quirks and has some serious issues I think. Every single time I empty the dishwasher or make noise with dishes she will run the same laps over and over, i have never seen anything like it. She will run downstairs, back up behind couch then outside and goes full throttle in the same circle for 5 minutes around the yard, it's like she's in another world. If someone comes to the door she will get on fergus and start trying to hump him, WTF. Has anyone had a female dog that tried to hump, maybe she is a lesbian? LOL

[lonewolf07]

Sarah - I have to tuck mine in too.  The names of their favorite toys are too embarrassing to type but tucking in an 80 lbs dog is quite an experience.

Newgirl - your dogs are probably working with the cats for world domination group.  If she has logged onto a website about exploding kitty litter boxes you'll know your dog has sold out to the cats.

I need a hobby too or maybe a life ....

[newgirl2708]

hey...i think my dog has a 'quirk'....

When i get my house "President" ready..I also have to pick up her toys and bones. I put them in her bed. Done for the night...well...I think her 'quirk' is...she's got to get them all back out again...so now I have to wait until she's asleep, then put it all away..

Do you guys think she's typing on her doggie computer about how she CAN'T stand it when that woman puts her stuff away...???

I think while I'm at work, she's logged onto some website and complaining about how when she finally gets her stuff right where she wants it...that dreadful woman comes along and packs it all up again..

Just a thought...hmmm...I gotta get a hobby...

[PromisedLand]

I never pull into a gas station when I see a tanker unloading.  I'll drive 5 miles out of my way.

[rue10]

If I'm driving an the car in front of me flicks a cigarette out and I roll over it I think my car will explode!

[rue10]

I had a really rough day....I don't normally come to the social side.  I got in "trouble" the last time I did with Naughty.  Remember Naughty???? ;o)

But I am just about peeing in my pants reading all of these wonderful quirky things.

Thanks a bunch.

Oh, I have to straighten EVERY crooked picture I see also.

[dominosarah]

Thanks for bringing up the toilet paper and paper towels!!!

Lonewolf........oh i forgot about the tucking in of the pets!!!!!!  I hate dog and cat hair too on the steps....it collects on the sides and out comes the broom!!!!

[lonewolf07]

Can't stand having dog hair on the stairs or stairs that aren't polished so I sweep them, clean them and polish them to the point where the dogs slide down the stairs boom boom boom boom.

I can't sleep if the dogs aren't "tucked in" with their favorite toys (these are 80 lb dogs),  Have even gotten out of bed to make sure they have their "toy toys".  Never did that for my kids  = (

[troubleinohio]

Nauty- YES you can watch movies with the playstation (at least the PS2 you can for sure, but i think you can with the old one too?!) I know for certain movies you have to set the security code /override it or it wont let you see them if its like R rated. Try it once and see!

[newgirl2708]

...lol!!!
I'm on my way!!! My house is Presidential ready and the sink is wiped out!!!!

[NautyOne]

LoL.....I don't have a DVD player either, just a vCR ...and a bunch of  World War ll movies......oh, and my favorite movie "CARRIE"......oiy!

I have to watch movies on my computer.  I do have a playstation.  Can you really watch movies with it?......I'm such a Tard.!.......can you!.....I a clueless.....

nauty....

[refusingbondage]

LOL.. GTMI - this applies to all liquids.. *diet* soda, juice, water.. I'm like the little girl from the movie "Signs" with cups of liquid all over the house..they really DONT taste right after the first few sips..

[Sunnyd210]

OMG you guys are killing me!! Im pretty OCD about the fire thing too. But its when Im driving. One of my cars went on fire and now all these years later if there is a smell I dont reconize I will keep asking everyone "Do you smell something burning?" its so bad that my kids just roll their eyes at me and say NO MOM!! LOL and if there is no one in the car with me I will call my boyfriend and tell him I smell something burning lol.
