Foibles

Mrs.MM and I were having a laugh at the weekend with some friends of ours and she was taking the pish out of me for those silly things I do, my lil' foibles. According to her they are.....

1. I never eat the very bottom of a banana - In my defence, I was told by a friend when I was about 9 that the end of a banana, where there's a little black bit, was poisonous and I've never eaten it since.

2. At the end of a meal I've always got a little bit of each foodstuff left for one last fork-full of everything - I don't see what's wrong with that at all.

3. I have a weird thing about what socks I wear on what day - I can't defend that, it's just plain weird.

So am I a freak or not? and more's the point, what are your foibles. 😄

yeah you are a freak all right. No fobles that I cant think off, maybe I have to open the beer bottles before I drink them 😄 🤣

hmm...well I dont eat bananas at all simply on the grounds that they boost oestrogen production in men and stimulate male breasts to grow and I never ride a bike as I was told at an early age that improper continuous bike riding or horses can cause impotence...

hmmmmm...you don't eat bananas because you fear for your manhood..iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinteresting.

I pull the chocolate skin off my Swiss Cake Rolls and unroll them as I eat it....it's better that way.

Mech, point 2 is very valid actually. It's very good etiquette to leave food on your plate. It's a form of respect to your host (or the one who makes your food) for it means that you've had more than enough. Eating it all COULD mean you didn't have enough and that's basically an insult to your host.

Now what about those socks? 😄

Who cares about etiquette, shuffel all the food in and end it with a loud burp! 😄 (have I read to much Calvin and Hobbes?????)

Burping is also etiquette in some countries btw

I always leave a drop of tea in my beaker
I leave a little drop of beer in my pints (not too much though)
When I say "touch wood" i touch my head
If the Wolves (my football team)win a match i try and follow the exact same events for the next match.
I never listen to albums, just one song on repeat
i always turn the radio on in the car before i start it
i have to fall too sleep with the tv on

if you needed any more evidence that i'm a freak, here it is!!!

I turn the car on, and wait five minutes before I put it in drive. People waiting to get my parking spot get really pissed 🙄

😂 🤣

Every time I go into a bathroom, I put the toilet seat up, even if I don't go pee.

Good thing you put the lid up before you got to pee though 😄

queeq, I think you mis-understood point no.2, I don't leave the little bit of food on the plate. I leave a little bit of everything so that my last mouthfull has a bit of everything. Now the socks thing may sound weird but theres a logic there...

Monday - Cartoon socks (Simpsons)

Tuesday - Grey warm socks cus I go to college on Tuesdays and I don't want silly socks on but I need warm ones as college is
usually freezing

Wednesday - Cartoon sock (South Park ones if possible)

Thursday - Grey warm cus college again

Friday - Thin black ones cus errrrr, I dunno I just do.

Weekend - Best socks opportunity so it's either Hugo Boss or CK's

FRRRRRRRRRRRRREAAAK. 🤣

What the hells happened to my sig? Oh no, a computer related problem and no RC about - I'm doomed for sure. 🙁

You need some help Mech 😄

I am fully aware, see "Drowning in my own ignorance" for conformation though if you please. 😛

I was talking about hte sock thing of yours 🙂

Oh that! 😮

I don't see anything wrong with it myself, but leaving a bit of tea left gets me angry, Mrs.MM is the same. She always leaves about 5mm of tea/coffee left every time (thats 0.196" for you Americans).

You have some weird hangups man..
