Wearing rubber gloves to look at a paper because I didn't want to get ink all over my hands and then get it on my face. One lady gave me flak about it after I have explained to her why I had on gloves.

Riding my bike with my fanny hanging off the seat because I didn't like how it felt on my bottom.

Smelling things.

Socks in sandals because I don't like how they feel on my bare feet and I used to wear my socks pulled up because I didn't like them down.

when I was army-poor and couldn't afford a decent SLR with a wide-angle lens and was stuck with el cheapo sears 40mm lens camera [basically a snapshot only type of lens with no width to it], I took all my pictures diagonally so I could at least have some side information and not just all in front of me. I still have those ridiculous pics in a scrapbook.

I cannot drink from a bottle that someone already had in his/her mouth. But I guess thats also pretty common with NT folks.

Edit: I dont mix up sauce in my plate and I sometimes take a seperate plate for them. Same goes for the salad.

I find it gross when people drink straight out of a bottle or a milk carton. Ick!

This would be much more bizarre if you were British instead of American.
