    Yeah I've been called a weirdo, but I don't get why people get bent out of shape because I'm looking in their window.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,596 ✭✭✭hairyslug


    Better to be weird than boring

    I've seen Requiem for a Dream five times
    There are nights when I'm struck down by the heebiejeebies.
    I sometimes run from the kitchen to my bedroom after turning off the hall light.
    Crumbs in bed don't bother me.
    Keeping my toothbrush in the bathroom makes me feel uncomfortable so I don't.
    For years I could only poo in my own bathroom.
    I send my friend recordings of my voice in scary freaky mode.
    At times I can be quite clumsy and bruise easily. If they are real humdinger I'll take a photo just because.
    I like to save photos of creepy scary ghouls and send them to my friends in the middle of the night.
    When it comes to a particular film genre comedy is my least favourite.

    I know yeah. I mean they were looking out at me, why can't I look in at them


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 140 ✭✭luftmensch


    Yeah, but I consider it a compliment. I'd hate to be ordinary, or the same as everyone else. Be yourself, who cares what anyone else thinks.

    Because I can be very quiet at times. Yes, I MUST be weird for not blabbing every inane thought that comes into my head, just so I can be seen to be saying something.

    Everybody shaddap :p

    I'm getting a strong mental image of Uma Thurman and John Travolta in Jack Rabbit Slim's here!

    I go to the cinema on my own.

    My wife doesn't have the same taste in movies.

    This makes me very weird and a loser apparently.

    I donno but a guy hammering on a roof called me a paranoid little weirdo...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,482 ✭✭✭✭Ush1


    I don't watch TV.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,296 ✭✭✭FortySeven


    I superglue my toenail clippings to the outside of my workboots as a reminder of weeks past.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,994 ✭✭✭sullivlo


    I got called weird today in work.

    Someone was leaving so they left a box of roses. I tipped them out onto the desk and organised them into their own little piles, grouping the same chocolates together and the similar ones beside each other. Oh and symmetrical.

    I see nothing wrong with this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,495 ✭✭✭KatW4


    People think I'm weird because I'm very quiet around people I don't know. I can never get my words out properly either and when I'm talking to other people I turn red!

    I'm also weird because I LOVE the band Busted, I'm obsessed! (Going to see them Tuesday woooohoooo)

    I'm pretty weird but I don't care. It's my life, no one else's so I'll like what I want and act how I want.

    Why on earth would you do that to yourself?!

    Once was enough for me. Freaks me out for so many reasons. Utterly depressing. Though it is a great piece of film making. But still! Weirdo! :D

    I remember when I was about 20 I was at a house party and a few of the "popular" girls I went to school with were there. One of them was like "Lia_lia, you are actually really nice! You were weird in school, and you still are weird, but you're really actually nice and good fun!". No reason for me being weird. Great I say.

    When someone asks me "how are you?", I'll actually tell them how I am. Weird.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Probably because I don't fit in like most others, I like to constantly be learning, my downtime consists of me watching a film/documentary on the financial crash.
    I'm learning up on stocks and how to programme as opposed to going out on the weekends.
    I sleep about 6 hours a day.
    I don't want to be part of a group who just waste time and talk nonsense, I'm also quiet, introverted and analytical.

    Or maybe it's because I communicate in random shrieks and screams.. I'm not sure...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,776 ✭✭✭This Fat Girl Runs


    I have two cats.
    I'd rather read a book than watch tv.
    I can hold my wee for hours if I want to.

    We sound ridiculously similar except I currently have 9 cats!

    Please tell me you're a woman!

    I don't drink tea or coffee. Trying to tell that to an Irish person, is like telling them they have them you have a terminal illness or something!

    I try to hold it but it always runs through my fingers.

    Why would you want to be normal in all fairness

    Keeping your toothbrush where the poo germs is wierd. Never thought of it before

    Why have u been called a weirdo....????
    Because I do. Do you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 702 ✭✭✭Pulsating Star


    People don't say I'm weird, cos I'm good at this pretending game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,709 ✭✭✭thesultan


    I don't like soccer or rugby either but love the Gaa 😉.

    My family think I'm weird because I'm more interested in car engines than buying dresses.

    I buy more dresses than I do look at car engines and thats why people think I am weird too because I like wearing dresses. I don,t really care what they think at this stage. I say do what you want in this life as long as its not harming anyone else.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I like to think for myself which makes me immediately at odds with various groups with specific agendas.

    therefore i am :pac::D

    I also go the cinema on my own its the best way to enjoy it and also when its not busy love having the whole cinema to oneself:)

    I also walk upstairs to my bed with my lights of I know my house like the back of my hand.

    I like to cook all my veg in one pot think its very inefficient to use more than one.
    If I use my oven then I will cook all my dinner in the oven and not use the hop or any other method to cook but as the oven is the most inefficient way of cooking and the hardest on electricity I try to use it as little as possible.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I was walking through a university campus recently and overheard some guy explaining to someone else: "I'm different to most people.."

    This thread just reminded me of that from some reason...
