I will only eat blue and red M & M s, I dont know why.... I know they taste the same as all the other ones. I give the others to my wife. And I will not eat purple skittles either.

I have to hang my pants on one side of the closet and my shirts on the other. The hangers have to all be facing the same way (ie, collars all facing left). The pants all have to be hanging with fronts out.

Yeesh, that's weird. :-/

Ok - here are a few:

1. I love metal rabbits

2. Airplane fuel is my favorite smell

3. I'm afraid of butterflies

4. People with long toenails cannot be my friend or lover

5. I can't sleep in a bed with anything yellow - such as sheets, blankets, etc.

There is more - believe me.

-I have to have all the hangars in my closets hung the same way with all the clothes facing the same way
-I cannot drink hot liquids from a clear glass, I cannot drink cold liquids from a mug or cup
-I hate the taste of water that comes from the bathroom tap even though it is the same water that comes from the kitchen tap. I have been like this my entire life and I always knew what water was bathroom water when my sister did a blind taste test on me
-I have to put dishes in the dishwasher in a certain way and if someone else loads the dishwasher for me I will rearrange it
-bills in my wallet go from smallest to largest denomination all facing the same way
-I like mustard and sugar on buttered bread. I don't know anyone else who likes this, I got it from my mom

Chicks dig me, because I rarely wear underwear and when I do it's usually something unusual.

Wait, that's Bill Murray in the movie Stripes.

Here are some of mine:
1. I can't stand dirty bathroom. I rather drive home than going to the public washroom.
2. I don't watch TV.
3. The only time when I'm not reading is when I'm sleeping (I read in the bathroom too). I have small library in my bathroom.
4. I have to make sure my bedroom is neat and clean before I sleep at night.
5. I hate balloons (childhood trauma).
6. Occasionally making "meoooww" sounds or "purrrrsss"....

Reminds me of weird things about my cats. One is afraid of flowers and the other is afraid of butter. :-)

I can use a right-handed mouse right-handed, or a left handed mouse left-handed, but I can't 'cross over'.

It bothers me far more than it should when other drivers don't use turn signals, or hover in the left/center lanes when they're not passing (I'm a very patient driver otherwise).

I can't stand to touch foam rubber.

I have to wipe my fingers in between each hotwing or piece of BBQ that I eat. I actually will use a knife and fork(if available) to avoid getting any kind of sauce on my fingers. I get made fun of all the time for using utensils on little chicken wings. I, also, have gone through almost an entire roll of paper towels while eating a batch of chicken wings when I didn't have any utensils to use.

Ha! Go eat a slice of buttered bread with mustard and sugar on it and then we'll know.

I can't stand drivers who don't use the merge lane

I have shaken leg syndrom (or restess leg syndrom). When sitting still I can't sit still, usually a leg will be bouncing.

Little jobs/tasks left undone bug the crap out of me, yet putting off big jobs is no problem?

And I hate talking on the phone.

I couldn't figure out anything odd about myself til I saw this post. I absolutely will not sit and eat without a view of the main entrance and knowledge of all exits. Of course this may not be odd, just prudent. ;)

My wife I go to the movies a lot, same deal every time for me:

Gummy Bears and a Diet Coke

Never start eating or drinking before the movie actually starts

Hold up each gummy bear to the screen so I know what color it is before putting in into my mouth, even though i eat all the bears regardless of color

:)

i have more, but i'll stop there

The only odd thing about me is that I'm really, really average.
Average height, weight, middle-aged, middle income, average intelligence, and I take average photos.

Otherwise:
1. I put salt on melon
2. I sort jelly beans by flavor before eating
3. I can't stand the sound of chewing crunchy foods, even when I'm the one chewing
4. I can hear florescent lights and it bothers me immensely
5. My house is usually clean except for my office which is buried under paper and memorabilia

Now I've got to go get some M&Ms. I can't make up my mind: peanut, or plain?

My friend was the same way with Jujubes. We even gave what he was doing a name; Jujuspection.

I don't know if it's that odd, but I won't drink a glass of milk unless it has an ice cube in it. Just one ice cube.

Also, if the expiration date is 2 days away, I won't drink it at all.

And, I like Milk toast. :)

My oddliness:

1. I am the same as someone else mentioned. I have to have the bed made before I go to sleep, and in the middle of the night I might even re-make it up, if the sheets and blanket is not even.

2. When eating chips (especially doritos) I always have to see the chip to tell which side is cheesier, and that is the side I put on my tounge.

3. I eat salt and vinegar chips with mustard.

Those are just to name a few for now. I know I am weird, but it's better than being like everyone else. : )

Freshly ground pepper on orange slices or on top of orange juice is good.

1.I've only been to about 3 sleepovers in my entire life

2.I have severe insectophobia [fear of bugs]

3.I named my guitar connor after a guy i liked [he dont know it]

4. I'm afraid of public bathrooms [not the stalls kind, but the kind where everythings in one room]

I also have really sensitive hearing, but it is usually the annoying sounds...a ticking clock will drive me totally INSANE! When we are in a restraunt or store, I am always asking my family "ok what song is playing?" and the answer is usually ..."what song? I don't hear anything."

I will usually avoid buying products or seeing movies that are over hyped...I'm getting better about it though, I've bought two Ipods, (for the family though.)

I can't stand stupid people...(people that know they shouldn't be doing something but still do and have no problem with it)

And one thing I have just recently noticed...my temper is getting EXTREMELY short. Little stuff has started just driving me nuts, I yelled at the cable company cause I missed them twice because I couldn't be home between their 8am-noon time and I never got the call I was supposed to get. If I can't do something the way I know it should be done or something doesn't work like it should, it usually gets beat and cussed at...maybe anger management classes are in my future.

eta: about eating the candies...what do you do if you have colors that have the same number of candies in them? How do you choose which set goes first?

1. I like dorito and miracle whip sandwiches

2. I always do the dishes in the same order, glasses & silverware, bowls & plates, and then lastly pans.

3. I can't eat steak or stuff with any bits of fat on it, the textures make me gag, or chicken with veins...eewwww (I have been known to tear my chicken apart before I eat it.)

4. I always like to hang my coats on the same hangers each time I put them away. I have moved coats to other hangers so that I could use "my" hanger for jackets.

5. I can't skip parts of a book. I have to read it from front cover to back cover.

I really am a freak...lol

I know there are more I just can't think of anything else right now.
