I myself am known for wearing only red, black and white, my cigarette habit, being smart (a good quirk), rambling off topic or getting obsessed with things, those are my main eccentricities.
I think I have more but that’s enough lol
What about you?

The sz is a quirk. Got a lot of mental quirks that no one sees. One the surface I’m just a regular dude. I do pace a lot when I’m bored, maybe that counts.
I’m 34 and I like Old School music. I’m picky about which songs go into my collection. I’m not a fan of the majority of music out these days.

Hmmm I almost never wear matching socks. I have strange sense of humour. I tend to refer to things,people, myself in 3rd person. I like to give animals or objects human characteristics (part of my odd sense of humour)
Example. I sent a message to this girl on pof that had a picture with her cat.
Message : So your cat sent me a video on Skype last night of you snoring… he thought you were gonna wake up the whole town!!! He was laughing pretty hard about it. I was too
She loved it

I also pace around a lot. It means I’m thinking hard. I usually pace for a bit while smoking and then get to work with an idea

I have the curtains pulled at all times and electric lights or I freak out.
I have to watch the same tvprogramme every night before I go tosleep, have to heave mp3 player and headphones on whenerv I leave the house. sometimes I think im a witch.
Yeah I’ve been called out on it. I probably have other behaviors that people notice.
“You pace around for a while then you leave.” Something I do a lot.
staring at the back of peoples heads…
not washing
talking to myself
not walking on the cracks in the pavement
turning the switches " on " and " off " and " on " and " off “…you get the picture
taking down the number plates of every red car ( they are MI5 ! )
wearing a black cloak
running down the main street of town shouting …” the jedi are coming "
pretty normal stuff…
take care

Turning my head like a dog when I’m considering something.
Taking people’s keys that look like mine when they are laying on a counter (did this at the vet’s last weekend, the woman was not amused)
Sitting in chairs oddly, either sideways or with one leg tucked under.
Hesitating on people’s names that I have trouble remembering.

I love good wild rain, wind, thunder storms. I love rainy days… I love warm sunny days… I freak out during chewy fog. Thick fog that you can taste… really gets to me. I’ve had some very wobbly days in the fog.
I get people confused with others all the time… I always think I see someone I know. So I find myself chasing down strangers sometimes.
I’m told people who know me can tell when I’m nervous… I play with my hair and start bouncing/ rocking/ pacing… a bit.
One thing that some people say is really weird… I like kids. I dote on my niece and nephews, I think the kids my sister babysits are cool, and babies are pretty amazing. I’ve been told often that being an unmarried guy and valuing the opinion of kids is very weird.

Working hard and fast. I didn’t notice I was doing anything out of the ordinary until my gung-ho co-worker who I thought was a good worker asked me in exasperation, “Why do you work so hard”?
Dieting. My sister gets frustrated at me for sticking to my diet because it’s hard to fix meals for me that are on my diet.
Drinking a lot of diet soda at work. My co-workers always comment about it. There’s a few soda machines scattered throughout the office building I work in and I often take a few minutes to chug one down . I drink at least 4 a day on a 8 hour shift.
I also am in the habit of taking my breaks alone to wind down from-being around so many people all day. No one has EVER said anything about it in 3 years but they obviously notice.

I think other people can probably notice my quirks that I’m blind to.

Im known for opinions outside of normal. That’s just not a schiz thing. I was always this way , I looked at things differently , my professional life was in software and had a unique way of approaching problems. It was not blind beligerance , more often than not my work (software design & implementation) was fool proof and never broke. that is what I was most proud of. Developing software , can be hodge podge activity but as anyone will tell you in the software industry producing something that ‘works’ full stop, can be underappreciated.
Quirks?
What quirks?
What makes you think I’m not a “regular”?
It’s not weird, it’s nice. You’re kind to children, that’s a good thing.
Yeah, children need people to be kind to them. Because I’m not. And they’re not kind to me. But good for you Surprised. I would actually not mind getting along with them but the little buggers play me for a fool.
Strike that. They’re just kids. I lived with both my nephews for years. It was OK a lot of the time.
