Weird personal habits - Page 8

Kate, does that really count as unusual? I do it now and then but it depends on who I'm with. Otherwise, you'd sound like Avery Brooks all the time (not necessarily a bad thing). "BusT some caPS" and China Chow are the only things I remember from The Hitman.

I honestly have no idea if it's weird or not. I'd imagine I don't do it all the time (I'd have to listen to recordings of myself in conversation to be 100% sure), but I am fond of rustic sounding declarations (Whenever it's gloomy out, I'll announce "There's a storm a brewin' ") and my mom felt that I do it frequently enough that it was worthy of further investigation. I think it's harmless and kind of funny, so it seemed like the perfect anecdote to add to the thread.

EDIT: I guess it's slightly odd because no one here besides myself really talks that way. It's more a Maine thing than Western Massachusetts (though of course Maine used to be part of Massachusetts and it's the goal of The Massachusetts Reclamation Project to restore the Bay State to it's original majesty as the founders intended )

Sushi is a goddamn crime against my tastebuds.

I agree if you mean one of those awesome crimes, like when that mega-hot woman teacher had sex with one of her male students.

No shit. I can understand no liking sushi, but it's not "weird".

Looks like you'll have to drink piss to be more interesting, Merriweather.

Whenever I have a black guy behind me at an ATM I shit my pants.

Wait, that's someone else.

Sushi's not weird at all, it just has the same affect on me as it has on Old Man Singer. I'm sure there's stuff I love that makes other people want to vomit (toasted bacon and jam sandwiches, anyone?).

It's not a weird habit to hate sushi, it's a lack of taste. Same as any other dish or food item. It's not a weird personal habit, it's a preference.

If you like like assfucking midgets between 8 and 9am during a solar eclipse, you might have one.

Have you read the thread? There's been like a two-page discussion about this very subject. My sushi comment wasn't out of the blue. And no, having a strong aversion to sushi isn't a "lack of taste".

In fairness, he never said "black guy." He just said if you're at the ATM at the low rise, be aware of spinning rims, baggy jeans and/or sports apparel and/or daishikis (HINT HINT), or the joyful sounds of Ladysmith Black Mambazo unless you wanna get jacked.

You forgot the cloying scent of KFC and watermelons.

Still love that. I even wrote a joke about it to eventually use in a routine.

You're not going to tell us the joke?

It still isn't a weird personal habit, even if Singer started a 2 page discussion on it. Is it that hard to understand?

Carlos Mencia didn't plagiarize, he instinctively told the same jokes other guys did before him. Big difference.

I still need to listen Marc Maron's podcast where he calls Mencia out on it.

It's like he's not even aware he's a copycat.

Mencia, Ralphie May, and the blue collar guys all have the same preamble they recite before each of their racist rants. It goes something like this:

"Man, everybody's so damned PC in this world. I'm just too real for that. We all have differences, and poking fun of those differences can bring us together. Besides - black, asian, jew, whatever - we're all American, and that's what counts."

And then they let'er rip with a litany of the most vile, ignorant stereotypes imaginable. God do I hate most stand up.

Yeah, it's an ocean of diarrhea with a handful of gems floating here and there. I'm just in it to do comedy/something that scares the living hell out of me.

At the very least, I hope I get a chance to fuck the same Comedy Central executive that they did. Or at least catch them strangling a child.

Forgot about this thread for a bit. My, hasn't she grown.

When I said "everyone" before, I wasn't referring to literally every person on the planet. I meant every person blasting the nuts of those actively involved in this thread. So, a few at the most, probably. Of course, there's a reason why the "extremer" habits on show in here are deemed "weird" (those aren't your bog standard quirks and no one could deny that.) However, the whole reason I threw my two cents into this thread was because I was interested in the looser, lighter sense of "weird personal habits", in the quirks ballpark.

I didn't know you did stand-up, Jake. Where do you perform? How long have you been writing?

I wipe my arse botton to top. My workmate wipes his top to bottom. He calls me weird, I call him weird. Anyone have the definitive word on an arse wiping style?
