I recently saw an ad for biscoff and I was surprised that people would eat them randomly. The only time I ever eat biscoff is on a plane when the flight attendant gives me some. Don't get me wrong I absolutely love them but I rarely think about it as something I can just go buy in a store. Seeing the ad was so jarring because to me it doesn't feel like something I should eat a lower altitudes

My dad's and I both occasional partake in a specific ritual that goes as follows:

  1. Crack open an ice cold Coke Zero (also works with coke. And probably other colas).

Take a few sips while you either pull fresh from the garden or out of the fridge:

  1. Radishes

Wash them up. You can slice, quarter or leave whole.

Get snacking.

Enjoy your fresh, slightly spicy (or really spicy depending!) radishes with your cold bubbly coke.

  1. Wait.

  2. Burp

  3. Transcend this mortal plane, bask in the glory of the radish and coke burps that follow.

A few years ago I decided I wanted to improve my hand flute skills and began consciously practicing daily. Since then, I have developed the habit of playing the hand flute automatically when my hands are not busy.

While lounging, I will interlink my big toes. I honestly didn't know I did it until my wife saw it and with a look of horror asked what I was doing ๐Ÿ˜†

Pick some fresh berries from my balcony planter. Do a little happy dance while eating them.

I'm a 50+ y/o man.

I like barking and do it well enough that some dogs bark back to me. Most won't, but some also have funny reactions.

When I pour Pepsi into a glass I put my nose over it and feel the bubbles fizz on my nose. Iโ€™ve done this since I was about 7 years old.

I like to grab door handles with my just my index and pinky fingers. I don't know why. I've been doing it since I was a kid. It just amuses me a little. I think I started doing it pretending to be an alien.

Biscoff and tea pair well!

Tapping the top of a beer can before opening it.

It's polite to knock first.
