eSports Chaebol posted:i occasionally check my fly to make sure its zipped when i have no reason to expect it isnt and it's entirely because it was an intrusive though from reading about the scientist who did it in Contact. i'll go months or years at a time forgetting about it/to do it then it comes back. it just did come back again because of this thread. it's my version of losing The Game Same! Not because of Contact, but because I have a fear of having my fly open at work. I'll be in an empty hall and tap my zipper and wonder if the security cameras caught it.

I sorta put my hands in my front pockets and spread em apart a little bit, if I'm unzipped there will be a little more give.

The moment I'm home I have to unpack my bag and unburden my pockets, hang stuff up, all that, before I do anything else. My bag will have at least five things that go into specific places, often in some other bag. Everything else can be in utter chaos, but those things absolutely must be put into their places or I'm not actually home yet.

Typically when going around a corner, work or home, I'll give the corner or beam a quick double slap. Dunno why.

As soon as I get back from a trip I unpack. Unless I need to pee or something. But pretty much as soon as I walk in the door I unpack everything. I make the bed every morning. Not because it is routine but because it's a good way to get your day going and it's nicer getting in a made bed at night then a mess. If there are dishes in the sink before bed, I either wash them or put them in the dishwasher. It's no fun making food in the morning when the kitchen is already dirty. For the most part, I think this is just stuff that grown ups do. Nothing weird about it. What is weird is being an adult and not doing these things. Well, the unpacking thing is odd, I'll give you that. But the other stuff is just maturity.

When I’m at work- I manage a government fleet of cars, my office is in a large mechanic’s shop, so there are always cars and trucks everywhere - I find myself rapping once lightly with my knuckles on a fender or bed as I walk by. Like you would if you were checking for Bondo in a car you were interested in buying. I don’t know why I do this, and worst of all, it’s catching, some of the mechanics do it too. Probably all those years of inhaling solvents.

Even found myself doing it to the forklifts. Which had solid tires.

I always rinsed out beer cans before tossing them in the recycling. Well my city discontinued it's recycling service but here I am still rinsing out my beer cans before I toss them in the trash. For some reason.

I rinse out my glass of water three times when filling it from the tap. Yes, it’s already a clean glass. I think it comes from having a weird fear of the water being stagnant in the pipes, and therefore potentially bad somehow. No, it doesn’t make sense. I’ve been doing this since I was a kid.

As a kid, my older sister told me the tails on goldfish crackers were poisonous. I don't remember if I genuinely believed it or it was just a fun game, but for my entire childhood, I'd have a bowl full of tails that got trashed when I was done. As an adult, my brain has allowed me a compromise - I can eat one cracker at a time, biting the tail off and storing it in my cheek while I chew and swallow the rest of the cracker, then I can eat the tail.

I've been writing in a journal every day since 1994. I've missed some days to be sure, but I've mostly stuck with it. Lots of journals now. I used to have grand plans, but they're all gone, and now the journals are just for me. They often provide me small insights, or just clever ideas or turns of phrases, or what the gently caress was that dream last night? I almost never go back and read something I wrote previously.

I also habitually check my fly and just had an incident the other week that is gonna make me do it even if I haven’t used the bathroom recently. Was talking with some coworkers when one of them gave me the silent “check your fly dude” signal. Looked down and there was AN ENTIRE POTATO CHIP hanging from a thread on the fly of my pants. It had been at least 45 minutes since I’d eaten. I had been all over my job site talking to at least a dozen people with this loving thing dangling there. I wish it had just been my fly.

Walking past a tabletop or desk with nothing on it, I have to run my pinkie tip across the surface as I walk by. Fingernails get the clippers, toenails get torn off. "Go paperless!" no thanks I love the shredder, I guess.

Jelqing. Didn't know what it was until many years later, all I knew is it felt good at the time. Long story short, all those years of practice have really paid off. Or maybe it's genetic, I have no way to really know.
