Ill share some:

1. I always drive with the windows down, unless its raining. Yet I tinted the windows because of the heat.

2. I always sleep with a blanket and the fan as to be on.

3. I never use my ac or heater in the car.

4. I build some really sick custom computers for other people, but yet mine is a POS.

5. My car must always be clean, but my house is a mess most of the time.

6. When am ____ed off, I clean the house like there is no tomorrow.

7. When am driving alone I sometimes talk to myself about what I could do better in something I see.

8. I get really ____ed off when a bug crashes on my windshield.

9. When am mad or just bored I always go on a long cruise anywhere.

10. I always plan my trip somewhere to take the less or none bumpy roads.

11. I must always park my car as far away possible when going out, no matter how far I must walk. My passengers never like this lol

12. I have to eat or drink something if am watching tv or a movie.

Thats all for now

Whenever I see a thread titled "pls lock", I have to go into it to see why the OP is requesting a lock.

I often go back into threads that I just responded to because it has the showing, despite the fact that it says I made the most recent post.

Let's keep it going peoples...

I just realized one more for myself:

1. I most ALWAYS have on a white t-shirt. Regardless of whether it is my only shirt or I have one on top of it.

- Before i go to sleep, i walk into my garage and say good night to my tc P

- During exams and quizzes, i have a bead bracelet that i use to meditate like monks do. it really helps me concentrate!

- The volume level on my tc stereo always has to be two digits that add up to 9 (lucky asian number haha)

- Something that my parents do but i dont do....set the clocks 10 min ahead so that we think we're late but we're not... -_- we call this "asian time"

- sometimes, even when im 10 minutes away from my car, i always go back to check on my windows, sunroof, locks, and handbrake (when you're a newbie at stick, you become so paranoid haha)

- i like to play around with my stickshifter at a redlight (even though i think this is bad)

- i park where there are no cars on either side

- when on dates, i always tickle my date at one point

Re-read my posts and then get angry if nobody answers them in like an hour-what did I say?

Want people to know about scionlife so I make copies of threads like introduce yourself (regional) and put them on windshields but don't have much free time so I only do it when the owner isn't near the car (so I don't end up talking to them and having to leave)

I suck at ending conversations-when they just sort of fade out I don't know what to say especially at work or something where I will see them in like 10 minutes again.

I love to cook and sew yet am 6'2" and weigh 275 (natural bodybuilder) and so people just do not see me in any way like I am inside (they all think I should drive a big truck too-like WTH)

People that burp loud and don't try to cover their mouth or say excuse me just ____ me off-that is like the rudest thing there is.

I was on a japanese website earlier-getting into the photos of over there and then when I snapped back and starting doing my work on the computer again I felt like I was in my office but my office was in Japan-expected to go outside and see snow

Haha me too- I just kind of end it with that smile and nod thing cause I don’t know what to say haha


And another thing about me—after every time I drive my integra, I clean my rims. I never used to do this, but then I got Volks and I felt it would be ludicrous to have dirty volks so I wipe them down after every drive!

1. If I am walking and bump into something or trip, I always say "Ouch" even if I barely felt it. I don't know why, but I've done this for years.
2. I absolutely MUST lock the door when I go inside, even if I am going right back out the same door in a few seconds.
3. If I am nervous about something and am in the car by myself, I will carry on short conversations with myself as though I were two different people, answering both sides of the conversation. I don't do this anywhere else but the car.
4. If I see a tiny smudge on one of my wheels, I will wash the ENTIRE CAR!
5. I will walk all the way back across a parking lot, even in the pouring rain, to verify that I locked my doors, even if I am SURE I pushed the lock button on my keyfob. I have to SEE that my doors are locked or it will haunt me.
6. If I spill anything on my shirt, even a tiny bit of water, I have to change my shirt. I won't wear it, even if it will dry and no longer be visible. It will bother me immensely until I change. The strange part to this is that I have no problems wearing shorts or jeans that have stains all over the place! ...even ones with crusty holes from drops of fiberglass resin! I just can't have on a dirty shirt.
7. I talk to my snakes as though they understand everything I am saying. The strangest part to this is that I know they do not have the physical ability to hear airborne sounds such as speech, yet I do it anyway. To take it even one strange step further, I am still waiting for the day that one of my snakes replies. Who knows? Maybe one day...

If I get woken up and have stuff to do for like 5 minutes and then can go back to bed I get to sleep faster if I roll over the bed and onto my side instead of walking around the end of it.

I get sleepy by laying on my back but I can't sleep that way-otherwise I fall asleep for like 5 minutes and wake up rested and can't get back to sleep

If I have coffee too close to bed time (like 4 hours before) I sleep just fine for about 3-4 hours but than cannot get back to sleep.

I will spend hours detailing my car, but when someone comments about how clean it is, I'll always disagree and say it could be cleaner. I don't know why I do it. I think I may just like seeing confused looks on peoples faces.

I do the lock thing too. Doesn't everybody?

I live on a corner lot and I have this hang-up about real estate agents putting signs by the stop sign in the corner of my yard. When they do it, I'll take the sign and relocate it in front of a school or a church or maybe a gas station or some other random place. They usually will come by later and ask me if I know what happened to their sign and I see if I can keep a straight face while telling them no.

My front seats have to be in the same position. If a passenger gets in and adjusts the seat position, I'll adjust mine to match it and when they leave the car, I'll put them back like they where to begin with.

Seriously, I'm getting sick and tired of having passengers in my car...
Why are you avoiding bumps?...Why is your car always clean?...Why do you drive slow?...
