What’s something you do that would make other people think WTF?
Eat fries first, main dish later, always. Good reason though: usually the main dish holds heat much longer than fries do, and it probably won't get as gross as fries do.
Cold fries are tasteless and soggy. A warm burger is still good.
I wander around at weird hours with food and drinks on me, offering them to homeless people. A lot of them are initially (understandably) suspicious because they might think I'm trying to grift them into attending some church or exploiting them in some startup scheme, but with some patience and established trust they often get used to you when you come around the next time.
There's lifetimes lived out there and people that will share their stories with you if you brought some pizza.
I meticulously eat all the whites off my fried eggs then shove the intact yolk into my mouth. Mostly because I hate yolking the other food on the plate and fried eggs are best hot. I have converted my husband. Everyone else seems to think it's weird.

I'm the opposite then, I guess. I don't need ketchup for my fries if I have egg yolk is all I'm gonna say.
Yes yes yes! I knew I wasn't alone! We can start our own community now!
Thank God I'm not the only one who does this. I want to eat all the yolk, thank you very much. The stuff left on the plate is a waste.
I do this but eat the intact and nearly raw yolk first. Then maybe I'll eat the pedestrian whites with lots of Parmesan and butter.
One day I saw advertised these birdhouses with little accordion-like appendages, the same kind most air conditioners have that allow them to fit into windows, and I bought several of these, one per window. On the side facing the outdoors, birds find a little hole and can venture inside, as is typical of a birdhouse. On the side facing the inside of my home, the same birdhouses have tiny windows, like those one-way viewers hotel doors have, that allow anyone to see into the birdhouses, as well as the secretly built option to open it like a door, either while no bird is inside (makes cleaning them easy) or, if someone for some reason felt devious (I wouldn't, and would never give anyone the key to said birdhouse doors), while a bird was in there, which would force it to honor the will of the owner of the home with all the said birdhouses (again, I would never use this feature, unless maybe a bird was injured or something and needed help).
Alright, with all that said... while I have no plans to ditch any of the birdhouses, I will admit I've received complaints that the combination of a few dozen birdhouses in unison is noisy in the morning, like you wake up at six in the morning and it sounds like the birdie house of commons. People say such bird hospitality is unbecoming of an inn attendant. Is it though? Is it? That said, this is usually when the noise cancellers aren't working.
I don't mow my lawn.
Fully invested in the no lawn movement, I've been slowly replacing my grass with "no-mow" fine fescue grasses that fall over when they grow long instead of standing up straight. They grow slowly and are meant to not be mowed most of the summer season, just a couple times in the spring and cut down low in the fall.
Between that and using shredded leaves as mulch in my flower beds or lasagna mulching to create a new flower bed, my neighbors definitely think I'm a bit off.
I, uh... I shave hair like 5 cm around my bumhole. Paired with a bidet, you wouldn't guess how much easier it made it to wipe. I used to use 30-50 squares of toilet paper per wiping session, today I can manage with just 10
More people should do this, honestly. Getting a hairy bumhole to be clean after a big dump is annoying as all hell.
However... 10 squares of toilet paper? Even with a shaved and hosed down bussy? That still seems like a lot to me
a bidet and a waxed butthole are the pandora's box of the bathroom. once you open them you can never go back
A hairless butthole makes farts really interesting. Someone's they bubble up under your balls
As a dude with very sparse body hair, threads like these always make me feel like I won the genetic lottery.
When I type on the keyboard I often always type F at the end and immediately backspace. I don’t understand why I do it and I can’t stop doing it.
If it really bothers you, every time you realise you did this, delete the previous word before the F and retype it, maybe even a few times, while paying attention to every movement. Slowing down helps too.
This is wild I picked up this quirk like 4 years ago, F key even. I code so a lot of the times I'm already ending something with a semicolon, but then the line gets an extra temporary F just to be sure
cI used to start messages with 'c' because I learned to type by playing Minecraft and had rebound the chat button to C.
I do the same thing with a space.
I have no idea why I do that and when I started
I shave the parts of my chest within 10cm of my nipples, so that suction toys stay on properly.
I tend to do that also. It makes me horrible at logistics and I also consider myself a horrible driver because I expect everyone to hit me.
No, you're supposed to do that, aren't you? When I was learning to drive they taught us to be defensive drivers.
When I feel very bored, I go to the Wikipedia page of a movie that I do not intend to watch anytime soon and just read the entire plot write-up, as well as the "Critical Response" subsection.
Why is it so much easier to read about a movie for like 15 minutes than to spend that 15 minutes watching the intro?
That's OK. I want to get into comic books, but their information density is that of foam. I start to read and get bored. But I love the stories, so I just find a synopsis on Wikipedia or some other site and read it in prose.
I got a spectrum diagnosis as a kid, but worked really, really hard to get good at socializing. Part of that, and something I still do to this day, is to run lines like an actor when I'm alone, or think I'm alone. I'll say the same thing again and again in different ways, until i've found the "performance" i like.
I just realised that I probably wouldn’t realise it was strange, I might have to ask someone who knows me
I always read out loud. Always. And I do most of my readings while walking. So I imagine hearing me waking around taking to myself make other people think 'wtf?'.
