This is a question Bizarre habits

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "Until I pointed it out, my other half use to hang out the washing making sure that both pegs were the same colour. Now she goes out of her way to make sure they never match." Tell us about bizarre rituals, habits and OCD-like behaviour.

Internet speak....
Further to my post below with regard to surfing the internet incessantly I have now developed some interesting side effects on the way I conduct my internal dialogue. Pre internet days I would walk around and have normal conversations in my head about everyday stuff. You know the ones. You're in the supermarket and you see something you like. Your brain says to your conscience, 'Hey, that's a good deal. Get it'. You have the briefest of arguments with the part of thoughts trying to justify why you should spend 50 pence more on muesli that has "10% more fruit" and "Contains no dust".

However these days when I see something that surprises me I exclain 'ZOMG111'. And I'll actually say it like this 'Zo my God one eleven'. Then almost immediately a picture of a startled cat will play out in my mind. Similarly the other day a fat chick got stuck in the doors of the train. Comically the doors stayed closed for much longer than they should of and she ended up screaming at the top of her voice to be released. All I could think to say to myself was "lolcats". As if any comical situation was in someway related to lolcats.

.
I sometimes find myself wanting to click an undo button, when I drop something or whatever. Not just a 'I wish there was an undo button' thought, but a fraction of a second where I really do reach for a mouse.

My brain also sometimes tries to photoshop things. An ugly pile of rubbish somewhere, I'll be looking to cover it up by cloning 3 feet of the bush next to it. It's quite real in my head - the realisation comes quite quickly, but until it does, these things make perfect sense. :D

*Should have
I've never read it like "zo my god one eleven" before but this is much more amusing! I shall do this from now on and be less annoyed with it. =D
