most random obsessions!

Post Reply New Topic

My major obsessions are:

1. Orthodox Judaism
2. Medical TV Shows; particularly ER
3. Asperger's Syndrome in Teens (NOT in adults or small children)

I have several random obsessions but my silliest one is Christmas decorating with lighted reindeer. I know it's silly but I my dad bought me 3 of them when I was 5 years old and I have been collecting them ever since. I have maybe 15 lighted reindeer now. Pointless hobby is pointless.

Well, this is the one my family members found the most amusing. From the time I was 8-10, I was obsessed with the weather, and every day I'd recite to my family the entire two week forecast for each major city on the continent, and my family found it hilarious. The only TV I'd watch was the weather channel and I'd watch it for hours. The one I personally find to be the strangest is my obsession with fonts, because I don't even like graphic design that much. It seems pretty strange especially considering the few other things I really like. And then when I was 6, I was obsessed with the Spanish Inquisition. I've also been obsessed with polynomials, which my math teacher found amusing.

Iteration of functions

Some of my other random obsessions are wolves and genetics. I buy a lot of wolf figurines and I love drawing them. I have wolf drawings/figurines all over my room. That also reminds me that I love drawing. I have loved drawing from the time I was young and I just got into digital art within the last year. I also love genetics. I love learning about it and want to find out the different genes behind cancer, autism, and diabetes. I'm going to study genetics once I graduate from high school.

I have a friend who's obsessed with football schedules...

I like those too , they result in complex behavior

I was obsessed with it years before I even knew the name for it, it started the moment I learned about exponents, which was a LONG time ago. After I learned about functions in general my interest was strengthened, and using the notation I created a notation for iteration, which happened to be nearly identical to the standard notation, and I also created something that ended up being surprisingly similar to knuff's up arrow notation. It took me a while to notice the connection between the iteration of unary functions and binary functions, after I had already investageted the iteration of binary functions in quite a bit of depth and came to many a conclusion on the iteration and composition of binary functions, and once I saw the connection every just clicked, and now all the mystery in math is just....gone. Everything suddenly made perfect sense and was far too simple. After that I moved more onto investigating the iteration of unary functions, there is lots of interesting stuff to discover there and I made a lot of discoveries.

A few years ago, I was obsessed with the story "Carrie." The Stephen King book, the Sissy Spacek movie, the sequel, the remake, the failed Broadway adaptation, I read and watched everything I could related to that story. I was her for Halloween that year, I'll have to see if I can find a picture I can post.

Im currently obsessed with cats, rabbit color genetics, and bonsais

Last year I was so obsessed with bonsais too! Right now I'm obsessed with living fossils and endangered animals, contact lenses and archaeology.

Penguins and lucid dreaming

Japanese pop culture - present
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis - This month, still going strong
Ancient Egypt - Up until I was ten (still wanted to be an egyptologist until I was 11)
Model rockets - 11 till Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconosis.
The rest, I can't remember.

I too, am obsessed with lucid dreaming; I try to do it every night and I recreate the same dream over and over again, making sure every detail is perfect. I've always done it- even before I knew what it was. Also, whenever I asked others if they'dd ever done it before, they all said "No"...apparently it's a really hard skill to learn, so that makes both you and I talented.

Ethnic groups and tribes of Europe and the Near and Middle East before about 1000 AD.

I was obsessed with ducks for four years.

And I had a brief spell of being obsessed on how a toaster worked. I can now tell you the correct temperature to cook the bread at and for how long to cause a scientific reaction that makes all the sugar in the bread caremalise and that it's all caused by a thermocouple and some nichrome.

I was also interested in edietics, or the ability to live off the sun's rays, like a plant.

Now, I have obsessions with Sherlock Holmes, Vincent van Gogh, and colouring.

It changes quite a lot, but I think Sherlock Holmes is going to last. And Vincent. I like people who were/are Aspie.

Some of those are quite random.
