Odd and Unimportant Quirks I Have

Nothing fancy today. There are a bunch of things I do that are fairly unique but probably wouldn’t ever come up on this site. Maybe some of them will give you ideas, or maybe you’ll just think I’m weird.

• To shave I use an old fashioned safety razor and a brush made of the neck hair of badgers.
• I NEVER cook with a microwave. Everything the microwave can do can be done better with another appliance.
• I’m left handed.
• I sleep with my eyes in the crook of my arm because for a year I had messed up automated lights that would randomly turn on at night.
• I’ve never been in a fistfight.
• I used to be a very picky eater. I ate no meat and only four vegetables.
• When I was 13 I flew to Taiwan with my best friend at the time and learned Mandarin Chinese. I really want a Chinese girlfriend so that I can practice.
• I almost never swear. I think it’s a bad habit.
• In sixth grade I voluntarily joined a church without my family. I was kicked out of confirmation class because I argued too much. I don’t think I ever really believed in god.
• I’m ticklish.
• I have poor vision but I don’t wear contacts because they’re too much trouble. When I try on someone’s glasses it seems like super vision because I’m so used to my vision.
• I’m scared of bugs.
• I’ve never swallowed a pill before. I think medicine is almost always the wrong choice.
• I practice freestyling (rapping) every single day. I started this 8 years ago because I couldn’t come up with a single line. Now I can go on indefinitely.
• I only have one scar. I got it from boiling sugar splattering and sticking to my thumb while I was making flan.
• I was most popular in third grade. I was one of three boys invited to a popular girl’s pool party. Things went downhill from there.
• I have an awful sense of direction.
• I’ve never been to Europe. It never seems like the most interesting option, even though there are a lot of cool places there.
• I started this blog to keep track of my polyphasic sleeping. I didn’t really expect that it would become popular.
• I know 100 digits of pi or so. I used to know more.
• I flew a plane twice.
• I don’t really feel bad for homeless people, but I feel awful for average people.
