What’s the quirkiest / most eccentric thing you do ?

[TinselAngel]

My only quirk is that I like our mugs to be grouped by type in the cupboard - and one particular set have to go on the left side of the cupboard. DH and DSs think that’s odd, but they all do the TV volume thing so who is weird here 🤪

I do so many of the things already mentioned.

If I eat a packet of crisps I have to tie the bag in a knot when I’m done. No idea where I got that one from 🤷

[MillyMoo]

I do loads of the things that have been mentioned on here, you've made me feel so much better!
One thing I do that drives DH mad is, when I dish up our evening meal I have to put everyone's plate in the same place each night. Dh is left, mine top middle, dd1 bottom middle and dd2 right. It can only be that way - he doesnt do this and if we are out there at the same time it makes me so annoyed that our plates aren't where they should be!

I’ve remembered another food one .
If I have a bag of wotsits, I essentially pour them from the bag into my mouth . So no picking them out with my hands . Nice clean fingers afterwards

When eating something toasted, I have to mop up the crumbs with my finger off the plate.

Done it all my life and no idea why...

I do loads of weird things. I count things, I must rinse my mug 5 times with cold water before use even though its already been cleaned. I count whilst washing my hands, hair etc i count whilst doing most things, 1,2,3,4..1,2,3,4... I never go above 10 😬
I also strip off before washing up so I am naked apart from my slippers, my family think I am mad, but I hate wet clothes and sleeves. I splash so much it’s easier to strip 😊

Reading this I sound like a nut job 🙈

Wait, so you are naked whilst doing the washing up?

That must cause a bit of a, erm, discussion during the after-dinner drinks when guests come round to yours for a meal.

I cannot sleep if one foot is touching the other. Bit weird but it actually makes me really a claustrophobic even though nothing else does.

I also salute magpies and have to salute if the word general is used in a sentence.

Exactly the same here, ALWAYS leave some at the bottom and drive DH mad. Thinking about it, I used to drink tea at mammas who always used tea leaves, so I think you are right as to why👍
