Mine is that I pour the milk before the cereal. people are always extremely confused by that.
I set my clocks on 24 hour time. Usually gets a comment when they see it.
waiting in line when there are self checkouts available. I just dont like doing it.
I eat kiwis with the peel
Australians are next
You’re going to eat Australians with the peel??
I too eat kiwis with skin, but apparently stranger is that I eat the whole apple, starting from the bottom working up, core and all.
You what to a kiwi?
It’s self-evident. I’m not attracted to people without skin, regardless of nationality.
Apple seeds contain cyanide and amygdalin.

Brits seem to really love when I heavily salt tea and heat it in the microwave. I top it off by saying “Cheerio! Pip pip!” in my best southern drawl.
Don’t know why…
I open bananas by pinching the bottom instead of ripping at the top (because it works better) and people act like I’m insane.
That is how apes open bananas too.
Not that I’m implying anything of course.
Technically, humans or homo sapiens sapiens are apes.
I use flatware when eating everything, including finger food. My friends only made fun of me when I ate crisps with a fork.
I will remove the top bun from hamburgers and use a knife & fork to cut little wedges out of them. Fewer carbs & no sloppiness!
chopsticks are awesome for messy snacks
Yup, (non-slippery) chop sticks are the absolute best for most crisps or cheesey-sticky-powder related snacks.
Lacking chop sticks, wooden tooth picks or barbecue sticks will do in a pinch (or stab).
I should keep some toothpicks in my portable flatware case!
Neuroqueering! It gives you fun situations everyday for sure.
What does this mean? I’ve never heard the term before.
To keep it too simple, it’s neurodivergent people not adapting themselves to the constructed social norms.
In a more elaborated definition: it’s subverting, defying, disrupting, liberating oneself from neuronormativity and heteronormativity simultaneously.
When people have a brain functioning differently from the majority, you will have different behaviors not matching the heteronormativity and the neuronormativity —even if you’re heterosexual. The most obvious examples are not making eyes contact, not shaking hands, stimming in public.
Wait, what does being heterosexual or not have to do with this?

I’ve had several people comment on the way I tie my shoelaces. I can’t even remember how to do it the “normal” way, but I use that knot that takes about half a second where you make both loops at once and pull them through each other.
I did that knot in front of a shoe saleswoman and she commented she had never seen anyone do that before. Asked me to show her again how I did it.
Microwave ice cream that was scooped in a bowl for 8 seconds to soften it.
I just heard of that for the first time like 2 days ago and this is the second time.
Is it a new thing? Or is it just coincidence? Lol
I have been doing it for decades.
