Mental hygiene should be practiced after every meal
- reads a lot about corpses, murder cases, psychological profiling of violent offenders, and unethical medical experiments

Not that there's anything wrong with that. They might just find those things interesting and morbid. They might also be a serial killer.

- does not know how to use modern technology or understand pop culture references despite living in modern technological times

Unless they're Captain America.

- finds weirdness to be endearing

Definitely a strong sign of weirdness is finding weirdos pleasant and normality boring. No judgment as to whether weirdness is good or bad. Like many things, that depends on the exact kind of weirdness.

actually, doing this about any "type" of person is a pretty big tipoff as it means people are basing their opinions about society on dumb memes and chain-letter stories about friends of friends instead of lived experiences

probably because they don't get out much, but are trying to seem like they do

actually, a lot of the posts in this thread are probably this

nah i'm pretty chill about making fun of types of people, it's making fun of types of people you've never actually met that's weird

it just reeks of bandwagoning and trying to fit into the in crowd

like if ten cool kids started making fun of all the old timey unicyclists riding around with their gayass purple tuxedos, you just know there'd be that one kid saying "yeah, they're the worst. i hate them."

I had a girlfriend a few years ago who owned a pet axolotl she named Mr Axolotl Head.

Also in her apartment, on one wall, was a framed yard-high picture of her own head. A weird narcissistic trait, that one.

I didn't buy that girlfriend a drink once and she responded by stabbing my bicycle tires with a knife when I wasn't looking. I didn't realise at the time that both of us drank like fish.

It's a good, non-weird feeling to be rid of her (and off the booze). I won't say more about her here in case she reads this and sues or stalks me.

You joke but this dude basically no poo poo did that one time. He'd sprayed and dropped a ton of really potent poo poo in the dining hall crawlspaces and was like "absolutely nobody is allowed to go in there for the next 48 hours without a mask". The very next morning, not even 24 hours later, he goes down there and crawls around with literally no protective gear and comes out with his nose and eyes streaming.

Don't huff industrial bug killer people, it makes you believe all kinds of weird poo poo and makes you act and talk like every criminal investigation TV show serial killer ever.

I have a good friend who was an exterminator for a while and before that was a real-deal, gun-shootin type of soldier in both Afghanistan and Iraq and got exposed to lots of fun stuff at that job too. He's good at keeping it together dealing with strangers but boy oh boy once he likes you, you're gonna hear some ideas about what's really going on. Great guy on the balance but I don't think we've agreed about anything yet (books and liquor and music and movies and games aside of course) in about five years of knowing each other.

To contribute to the thread, I'd say people that insist on hugs. It's okay to enjoy a hug with a loved one, but "I don't shake hands, I hug" guy is a guy that knows the only tits he'll be touching in this life will be with his chest through several layers of textiles

Somebody at College is trying real hard to be friends with me right now and they've totally tipped a bunch of these signs.
Still trying to figure out how to let them down without outright saying "Look, just gently caress off."

Believes in Shields / Powers and that they have shields and powers to help them

Real life advice: you have an opportunity to learn how to opt out of bad social situations with no real repercussions right now. Practice. The fact that you met someone doesn't mean you have to keep knowing them or even be nice about not wanting to. People that don't learn these skills are basically 100% of cult followers, people that do are basically 100% of cult leaders. Which of those has more fun?

yeah letting someone think you're their friend for months when you really can't stand them and want them to leave you alone is way worse than just telling them to gently caress off in the first place

e: most people don't learn that lesson until their mid-twenties though
