Ok, sometimes I do weird things and i don't know why. Maybe I'm messed up in the head. I don't know to be honest. But this thread is to describe our weird things we do each day. After 10 pages, it'll boil doen into a collection of random crap, but hey, that's fun :D and I'm pretty sure our oh-so-eccentric prog community can do many weird things. OK, I go first;

Pancake drumming. I was makeing a pancake and I started drumming on it. No syrup though, but it'd be a fun experiment lofl.

Sometimes when I'm sitting in my room really bored, I flick small pieces of food at my wall.


EmbarrassedLOL    

Oh, and speaking of drumming I ALWAYS drum with my feet, even in class....I can't help it.
Of course I use double bass, and often complex/strange beats, sometimes with the front and back of my foot.

I have a tendency of walking through the house for no reason.

I'll walk into the kitchen, a room, sometimes halfway into a hallway and just stop. Turn around.

I seriously don't know what's wrong with meLOL

When I type my rambling comments on Progarchives, I do it so fast some are labeled as spam. When that happens and I lose a long pretzel rant, I cry and bang my head against the air. Seriously.

This may be very common, but sometimes I just say things. I don't have Tourettes (spelling?) or anything, it's free will, but I still do it. Like I'll be talking to someone about music, and I'll suddenly voice that I think llamas are cute.

I heard about someone like that: she can stop talking and singing a lullaby. Then, she does the normal talking again.
Or, sometimes, she begins raving about how cute a bunny can be.
She frightens my brothers and I understand them.

And my obsession with pretzels is not unfounded. For almost all my life, I've been a pretzel farmer. I know all the nuances of this job, it's like a dance, making those things grow. You need to sow the salt into the ground juuuust right, and you need to show love... and the positioning is critical, you need to get it right down to the inch. It's a difficult, demanding job, and as a result, it's consumed my whole life. But, the reward is a field of pure pretzel and a winter of pure slacking. However, I've retried, but without my farming, I have nothing to do, but pretzels still occupy my mind. Even when looking at this thread, I think of the best places to plant pretzel seeds in my lawn. But yeah, it's gonna take awhile before this wears off.

Neuro's seriousity wears off finally

Don't worry, they make the things differently now, they hardly ever turn into massive, disgusting, horrible beasts and rip your head off. That's relatively rare with the new ones.

Hide it in Narnia. If you don't have a wardrobe, steal another person's. And if all else fails, call the bomb squad to keep you company. That's what I do when I'm lonely.

Anyway, back to the topic. When I take a bath in my stolen tub, if I'm not reading anything at the time, I sometimes make cannons or volcanoes or submarines out of empty shampoo bottles. Which reminds me, I've cut an empty shampoo bottle in half to keep paint brushes in it, just in case that if an attractive and fairly wealthy woman happened to invite herself to my place it would be easier for me to pose as an artist.

Well, not exactly a weird endevour but something similar perhaps:

I'm one of those people that continuously have music playing in their heads. It's completely out of my control and it doesn't bother me, it's rather pleasant actually. I mean every waking second this goes on, and I've had it for years.

I never know what it's going to be but 99% of the time it's somewhere in my album collection.

So now and again it bugs me that I can't place it and tend to just stop what I'm doing and stare into space just trying to place the tune playing up there.

Must look really strange to the outside world.

I'm currently listening to The Power And The Glory by Gentle Giant in my head.
I can also usually stop the music if I want to.

@Neurotarkus: In a way, but they're never complete songs, just segments of up to 20 seconds on a loop for a while before being replaced with the next one.
I suppose I'm lucky in the way that it never happens that something annoying comes along.

^Heh heh did it hit anyone?

I don't like the fact that I'm really musically tolerant. I always either 1) don't like an artist, but don't see anything to passionately hate about them or 2) I haven't heard enough to make a good judgment. Then again, why listen to bad songs just so you can criticize those who made them? Or maybe there's no reason to hate anyone. However, having something to hate is nice, I guess it's just psychology. But I really want a band to hate and a good reason to do so.

Nope. I made sure no one was around at the time.
Besides it was at the "drunkard" time of night. I could've just yelled "HEY! YOU ON A BOAT!" and they would've laughed and forgotten I hit them. No joke there.

THAT reminds me of another weird endeavor!
Late at night my roommate and I would go around town and mess with the drunkards. We would randomly point to a person, stare them down and say "hey! are you on a boat!"

Usual response was a pause, followed by laughter or  HELL YEAH IM ON A BOAT MOTHERF*CKER!!!

How did everyone get the idea that I don't shower? It's just that one needs to shower very often to stay perfectly clean. This is even more true for me with a long hair: sometimes I just don't have the time. I feel like I'm wasting my life away standing in the shower when I could be comparing race horses, playing online poker or writing a short story about a man who couldn't get a can of beans open. So sometimes, I admit it, I do give the shower a miss. Then, if I go to town, I feel people looking at me thinking, "Oh dear, that fellow sure hasn't taken a shower today!" I know it's my own fault, but sometimes I can't help thinking that all those judging gazes may eventually be too much for me to bear. And I keep wondering, "Oh, will I ever be one of those good people who are clean all the time?" And how clean exactly must I be for Winona to accept me? For I know Winona herself is extraordinarily clean, she probably takes a shower every day. How could I even approach her pure presence when I myself am such a mess? How could I show my appreciation to her knowing that I wore these very socks yesterday? How could I let her know that my love for her is much grander than what shines from my sweat-stained face? How could I do that? How?

How's about THIS for the ultimate weird endeavor?
I joined and became a frequenter of a prog site with little knowledge/liking of prog!

It wasn't for another year or two that my tastes really expanded to include prog.


Posted By: Neurotarkus
Date Posted: July 02 2009 at 16:13
One of my friends did that. I was saying random crap to all you people, so he was like whoa and he joined the site, even though he has little interest in prog (he likes ELP though, since I introduced him to them Smile). He has a grand total of  maybe 20 posts, though.

speaking of post count, I broke the 1000 mark yay!

I joined as someone who was vaguely, vaguely into prog at all, (my extent was Symphony X and DT (which some wont even take as prog)). So I joined to 1. be an ass   2. talk about metal  3. learn more about prog and help expand my horizons.

All 3 of those were done with great success!


And when I first joined posts were a good thing. The few had topped the 10,000 mark were like Prog-Gods and making 1000 for example was cool.   Now that the archives are, IMO, not as good as they used to be and thanks to the just for fun section it's pretty easy to skyrocket your count.

Speaking of which. How weird is this?  When I am bored I go onto PA, straight to the just for fun section and play these crazy dumb games.

Says Vompatti the random.
I wonder what percentage of everyone's posts are Just for Fun posts. For me... 100% :(

And I don't think post count etc. matters for anything. I'm transforming into an audio sponge, absorbing everything I can get, prog or not, but especially prog. That's what matters; commitment to the greatest musical genre ever.

Oh boy, more weird things I've done/do....
OH! another thing I do when Im really bored is put on Madden '09 and just mess around with rosters. I don't actually play, (the game sucks). I just keep fooling around with team rosters. Whenever I finish, I just turn the game off 


Posted By: Neurotarkus
Date Posted: July 02 2009 at 16:50
Yes, I've done that in Madden. Making every team's people have minimum stats for everything. Just goes to show I need a hobby......

And sometimes, I just go and walk somewhere. No destination. I sometimes think, where am I? It then turns out I'm in San Francisco.

Sometimes I, or my brother, talk with a heavy Scottish accent.

I did once in class, (I never talked before just usually sat there). I actually heard one kid mumble, "wow that kid never talks I cant believe it. He's Scottish??"

That happened to me about 60 times today during my stint around the "Just For Fun" Forum area
Happens to me too. Quite annoying


It really is... More of a nuisance for regular users than a useful tool for blocking spammers

Do people even spam this site?
And just a little note, there was an advertisement for NICKELBACK tickets here. Who tries to sell Nickelback tickets to proggers?

I dont know if this is weird, but has anyone tried tuning their guitars to insanely low levels.

I put mine so low the strings were literally just hanging.
Quite a sound....I should make a recording!

I've found my guitar in such a condition...

Obviously it doesn't play very well in such a state, but for making ambient tracks, it would work very well...

Stickers that won't come off or come off only partly disgust me immensely.

I kinda hate stickers in general, especially those bar code things. Sometimes, they make me want to puke. No clue why. Also applies to tags on mattresses, etc.

Of course I do hate "extremism"
Like PETA for example.

Also, I may be very liberal, love nature/environmental protection but I hate hippies and uber green freaks.

Is this a weird endeavor?

I once tried to explain to some random hippie girl how recycling is bad, (helping my friend with a project).
I shattered her world. Like I saw the expression literally fall off her face.
And she was insanely hippie-ish. Dreads, the tie dye clothes, and all the works.

I always wanted to turn a dumpster into a bedroom. Seriously, I'd like put a mattress in there, and a light or something on the wall, and call it a bedroom.

Resurrected from the grave!


Today I was on PS3 home and I ran around talking in a heavy british accent.
Later I was running around as an old school pirate asking people to discuss socialist democracy
I'd also pick one random person and just follow them, everywhere.

I kept throwing a stuffed pokeball at everyone I could find. I must've caught Freddie like 3,823.09 times.

Oh, and when I have a son, I shall name him Steamroller, force-feed him hot dogs, and then force him to become a football player, an offensive lineman. He shall clog up the whole line, thus making every team want him. Then, I shall take most of the money, spend it on worthless stuff, like gold-plated F-22 fighter jets.

That is my goal in life.

I cure my flu and my colds with jam, honey, sugar and any food which can be "married" with hot milk.
What do you say about... huh, "Medics"?

I think you're being silly now!
You better do all that and nothing less!

And isn't that why all parents force their kids to do sports? To take all the money.

I am completely serious about both. And yes, I am gonna take all of little Steamroller's money. Some may call it cruel, but I call it good parenting. After all, what other purpose do those whiny, moronic toddlers serve? Well, I can't find anything better than football player egg.
