Useless (so far) habit #12

Everytime I hear something that sounds like it could be a gunshot, I look at my watch. You know, just in case anybody asks later on.

Everytime I hear a door slam I look down at my foot to make sure it’s not in the door


“Do or do not, there is no try” - Yoda

i look both ways before crossing a one way street


I’m pink therefore I’m Spam

I keep all receipts, convenient stores, gas stations, everything. just in case i need an aliby for a specified time and date.

I print out, analyze, and index all of Phaedrus’ postings to this message board. Then I smear myself in vaseline and squirm around for a while.

That’s not strange is it?

Personally, I like to check for snipers on the tops of buildings as I walk down the street.

I always watch squirells so they don’t get the jump on me!

i keep on opening the door to let the cats in/let the cats out. don’t know why i bother. there’s a rule written down somewhere that ‘cats are always on the wrong side of the door.’

I always double check the iron before I leave the house. I even do it when I haven’t used the iron, just to make sure I didn’t forget the last time I used it.

I almost got hit by a car going the wrong way on a one way street.


It is too clear, and so it is hard to see.

I always have to bury my victims face-down.

I dunno, I’m funny that way.

I keep a wary eye cocked at overhead seagulls at the beach. You don’t want to get hit with that!

When driving on highways right next to airport runways (like in Minnesota Hwy 5 - planes seem about 50yds altitude maximum when they fly over the highway coming in to land), I always speed up or slow down so that if it landed suddenly it would miss me.

Not one airplane has landed on my car this year. :slight_smile:

I always double check that my keys are in my pocket before stepping outside and locking the door.

O.K., Psycat,

Where/how do you keep all of those receipts? I need to save more receipts, but their such a pain to deal with. Especially after they’ve been crumpled in my wallet.

Enright-I keep a box-think hat box but square with winnie the pooh- near my computer. I need to go through most of my receipts to enter them in my budget spreadsheet, then i just toss them in. I usually dump the box(keep big ticket stuff elsewhere) after a couple months. I figure by then I’m in the clear… :slight_smile:

Oh, I’ve got a good one. Sometimes if I’m wondering what day it is, I’ll look at my wrist. I haven’t worn a watch for years. And even then, it didn’t have a date on it.


It is too clear, and so it is hard to see.

I’m almost obsessive-compulsive about my wallet. After I take out my wallet to buy something, I’ll check it 4-5 times as I leave the store, just to make sure I have everything I came in with (except the money, natch). This means I’ll stop, take out my wallet, check, put it back, walk twenty feet and check again. Drives people nuts.

On the plus side, the one time I did leave my wallet on the counter I found out right away, so maybe it’s not that useless. . . but c’mon, checking four times?

I don’t have an evil side. Just a really, really apathetic one.

I always check to be sure I have my keys just before I lock them in my car.


That’ll do, pig. That’ll do.

You don’t want to know what I’m really obsessive-compulsive about. Trust me.

Besides it would spoil my pristine reputation on this board. (Upper 70s on the purity test.)


That’ll do, pig. That’ll do.
