Finally enjoying peace
Say things about self-harm that would get me committed, and masturbate in ways that (most) society would never accept.
Like, upside-down?
Definitely done it standing on my head once, just to see if I could.
Experience Tourette's-like symptoms. If I remember a painful memory, usually to do with regret or embarrassment, I shout a string of unrelated words. Luckily this doesn't happen in company
Similar - I don't say anything coherent, just contort my face and say things like Patrick from Spongebob (i.e. leedle leedle leedle lee)
I do something similar. But it's usually just weird noises or saying stuff like "fuck ass cunt removed" for really no apparent reason. I'm guessing it has something to do with "stimming" and my ADHD. Might be related to that for you as well?
Seems likely. Got nearly 30 years of pretty regular alcohol, cannabinoids and occasional disco biscuits under me belt
I do that too, I think it's a symptom of my OCD
I'm not an OCD kinda guy meself, so I couldn't be definitive about it
All the fun stuff that "society" and "etiquette" denies us:
- Make weird noises with my mouth and imitate cartoon characters
- Fart, burp, pick my nose, and pick eye boogers
- Listen to the same song out loud on repeat
- Laugh maniacally at funny videos
Make weird noises with my mouth
The amount of beatboxing I do while alone is staggering.
Be depressed
Read the biology of belief
Fart in comically obnoxious ways. Examples include the Doggy Leg Lift, the Goatse, the Modified Goatse, and one I simply call βThe Hamburglerβs Revenge.β
Look up Jimmy Carr's laugh it's Umm... Unique.
Dude laughs like a sociopath. He also does most other things like a sociopath though.
Loudly say what I really think of certain people.
My God, the one time I wasn't on mute almost ended my career
I feel this. A few weeks ago I was having problems with the headset I normally use for meetings, so I had to dial into the call on my phone while still watching the screenshare on my computer. When the meeting was over, I forgot I was still connected to the audio call on my phone, and I made a huge loud sigh followed by βugggghhhh fuck this shit.β Everyone heard me and cracked up. I passed it off as me cursing out a different technical issue, but the people that knew, knew.
I KNEW IT
just kidding, I've never seen you before
the one time I wasn't on mute almost ended my career
Sounds juicy af, please tell us the story!
My mind goes ``Hey buddy, what if we started doing that negative self talk out loud?"
I repeat the negative talk out loud imagining I'm SpongeBob doing the meme. It helps put that voice into perspective.
I sing songs to my cat, usually remixes involving "my wittle kitty" or "monkey monkey cat."
I'm a "grown" man almost 40 I swear. Lol
I sing random shit to my dog and cat a the time. I also baby talk my dog in public. I'm a near a 40yr old man too. There's dozens of us!
Masturbate.
Take a shit.
Beyond washing my hands pretty much all personal hygiene.
I like to sneak blueberries into people's pockets.
I feel like this is a reference to something...
Stalin did something similar with tomatoes
I hope not. I hope it's just for pure chaos.
Like imagine going to the store, everything is normal and you pay like normal. Then you leave and stop to get gas and grab your wallet and somehow there is a blueberry in your pocket. I'd start questioning reality...
It may not be a reference directly, but it's a common enough thing that it's been included in pop media, usually in a comedy setting of course. Can't imagine a drama with sticking random food like hot dogs in people's pockets lol
Dance like nobody's watching. Get that stanky leg goin
Play the edgy music.
Beat up a pillow.
#justice for pillows
or the cringy music
I wonder if anyone even remembers. Try bullet heaven, count of darkness
Wear women's lingerie.
hmu
Hey, you leave her majesty's undies alone!
Eat unhealthily.
relax
I do that too. With my arms out to the side. Sufi style
Sing out loud.
I'm not a cruel man, so I don't do it in company.
