    I was thinking, yeah I'm pretty normal, no one has ever called me weird. But then I remembered that I'm a complete bag of cats in my head. I checked a few times and it turns out some of the stuff is really best kept to myself.

    I don't mind though. Normal wouldn't suit me.

    I was told by my mates people thought I was weird after one night out someone asked what was wrong with me and I said with a straight face "I've no willy" and "I can have you killed" apparantly these great Irish people had never seen Father Ted before, so maybe my sense of humour is just weird.

    Well, this is awkward. Maybe we just bypass your one?

    I'm a guy, but I'm sure there's plenty other weird and female fish in the sea

    I guess I don't watch Game of Thrones that doesn't make me hip or down with the kids.

    I have never watched Game of Thrones, and I like Smithwicks.
    Is that weird enough?

    Where Im from in rural kerry they consider me weird as I'm not into the holy triumvirate of church, gaa and alcohol. Sure people thought I was gay for having long hair and being into books and music. Its funny how people are suspicious of the ones who read there.

    Same- no interest in any of the above. It definitely scares or unsettles people for some reason!

    I was the same, I'd always get "what do you mean you don't like pizza, everyone likes pizza". No, no they don't.

    I've grown to like the sizzler from dominos but I need a half gallon of garlic and herb dip and lots of jalapenos or I won't eat it.

    Looks like we've got a reader here.

    If they haven't seen an episode of Father Ted then they're the weird ones.

    I hardly ever drink alcohol.
    I hate football, rugby and GAA (and all other sports).
    I like spending a lot of time alone.
    I don't talk much, unless I have something to say.
    Every time I sneeze, I simultaneously shout "fuck".
    Oh, and I have a third nipple, which is more rare than weird.

    I don't have a sweet tooth and I never order dessert in restaurants. Much to the chagrin of friends who like to 'share' dessert in order to assuage their guilt! This has lead to many accusations of weirdness.

    Since I'm in secondary school I can basically list a whole pile.
    • I don't talk a lot during class (been the same way for all my life). They expect 6th years to be all loud mouth and stuff apparently shouting "GURL GURL" every time they see, well, a girl.
    • Don't like social events, to prove this I'm willing to say I actually went to bed early after the graduation ceremony last week rather than going out with anyone.
    • Don't like tea/coffee or pretty much any other hot drink.
    • My friend and I spend most of our time discussing politics, video games or current science topics over sports and girls. We were discussing how Trump could win the general when no teacher turned up to religion class and the messers behind us just started saying "ooooo politics". All they were discussing at the time was the "ses" they were going to have after graduation.
    • The four people who admit they are atheists in my year are considered "weird" even though most of the people who think it's weird couldn't stop giggling through the "graduation mass".
    • I hate PE class and pretty much any sport that requires me to play with "teammates", gym classes were the only thing I enjoyed.

    Yeah I know some of these don't really count in adult life but this is only a taster of why I am considered "weird" to the "normal" sixth years.

    I used to despise apple tart as a kid as my mother would put cloves in it....now plenty of sugar makes it edible!

    Your third nipple reminded me of my heterochromatism. I'd forgotten about it.
    Whether people find it weird, I don't know.

    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...
    Sheldon is that you ?

    I like to eat a Chocolate digestive with a easy single on top, delicious, but people find it weird for some reason....

    I think it's because I don't trim the corners.

    People may think I'm weird because:

    I don't like tea or coffee (although this seems more common on here than in the 'real world', so maybe this isn't so weird after all)

    I prefer cats to dogs. Actually, I'm not a fan of dogs at all.

    I hate small talk and am no good at it. Parties are my idea of hell.

    I haven't got a smartphone and have no intention of ever owning one.

    I prefer classical music and opera to modern music.

    I don't like ice cream.
