I hate children.  I'm not just saying that, I really hate them.  My first instinct when I see one is to kick it out of my way.

I see I am not alone.

In truth, I am very misanthropic and I really don't feel the need to interact with the majority of people I encounter. I usually get my wife to do any talking on the phone or when we go out, simply because most people annoy the sh*t out of me.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

I tend to blow my nose in public,like in parking lots and such,by covering one nostril with my finger and blowing snot out the other nostril.

Here in Iowa we call that the "Farmer Blow"!
I've done it several times myself and yes, it is disgusting.  But sometimes it just has to be done.

As for my own personal quirks...
Like Derf, I sometimes get accused of being arrogant.
I remember one time several years ago at a get together among friends, there was this new girl hanging out with us. (a friend of a friend)
I was blabbering on about something and she looked me straight in the eyes and said, "You're kinda stuck up aren't you?"
That threw me for a loop because I never think of myself that way. 
And it made for an awkward moment.

Ever since that night, I'll catch myself saying arrogant things and feel somewhat ashamed.

I've definitely mellowed since then.  Especially here on this forum.
Dig up old posts of mine from years back and you can clearly see that I'm not even close to the same person I once was.  I get embarrassed reading some of the junk I wrote.
Well, every now & then I can become ornery, but I usually keep it in check.

---------------------

I am also called "cheap" by my friends and family members!
I don't think I'm cheap.  I believe I'm thrifty or frugal.

For example, I do not buy napkins.
Instead, when I go through the McDonalds drive-thru, I ask for a huge stack of napkins.
Why buy napkins at the store when I can get them from McDonalds for free?
McDonalds is a multi-billion dollar corporation.  They can afford it.
To me, that's not cheap...that's smart.
Only a sucker pays for napkins when he or she could get them for free.
Same goes for any other product.
(if you recently bought or currently buy napkins, please accept my apologies)   Smile

I must get the "cheapness" from my father because my mother constantly tells me, "Jeez Jamey, you're just like your father!  He was cheap too!  That's one of the reasons I divorced him!"

Thanks Mom.   Smile

So I guess my "cheapness" is hereditary.    TongueOut

Bratty kids (as RC mentioned earlier) get on my nerves.  Don't get me near a crying and loud kid in a restaurant.  The best part is when my 2 year old son (who is usually well behaved) gives those brats a dirty look.  Parents have a lot to do with their kid's behavior.  I generally hate parents who don't seem to give a sh*t.

Let's have a little fun with this one.

(1) McDonald's is a multi-billion corporation, true, but that does NOT mean they will "afford" any waste.  Any costs they see in their operation are defered to the customer.  Or, they could even impose a "napkin limit" on customers to keep that cost in check.

(2) We don't eat at McDonald's - period.  I have not eaten at McDonald's in over 11 years.  We only very RARELY eat ANY fast food.  A couple of years ago, we went almost a whole year without eating at ANY restaurant (in the whole year, I think we ate out only 2 or 3 times). Your method would not work for us.

(3) You could avoid buying paper napkins by using cloth napkins.

Sorry...just one of those "let's be contrarian" moods.  It's one of my quirks.

People have said my sense of humor is annoying.

I might on a rare occassion go through a drive-thru and order through a speaker and after placing the order mention that I'd like that "to go". You have to be careful doing this because they could tamper with your food if they take it the wrong way.

Or go to the supermarket and tell people while waiting at check out that "Tommorrow is free food day at __________".

Or may suggest to someone that I'm an anarchist and spend my days off slowing down the economy by driving purposely below the speed limit causing deliveries nationally to be delayed which would cause a slow down in the economy and potentially a reccession. While also stating that this is why they have increased the speed limit to 65 mph in many place to boost the economy. I'd say this with a straight face. People don't know how to take it till I snicker for a moment. Then they realise I'm joking.

As far as napkins go.............How do you feel about this Ash?

First of all, I love the first one.  That's one we would pull on people in high school.  Whoever was driving/ordering at the drive through would always be told by one us in the car to say "to go".  They would then do so without realizing.

The second one is fantastic Scott.  It's one of those ideas that is just so insane that it actually sounds like something someone would say.  Karma!

  ASH-I understand the 'thrifty' thing...

 I grab more than I need in the way of 'toppings' if I get a samwich  from a party store...as in little packs of hot sauce,mustard,catsup,etc...I also used to nab TP from public bathrooms....comes from times of being -on the balls of my ass -broke in the past. Also used to take empty soda pop bottles to work and fill 'em with soft soap to do my dishes and laundry. Used it to wash my hair too.
 I lived outside in NYC for about 3 months with my pal Joey...we used to order pizza fon take out...at closing time the pizzareia would toss all orders not picked up...we would watch and when the pizza was dumped into the bin...we would climb in and get our food! Nasty...yeah..but we we're starving.

It's crazy enough to actually work if you had enough people doing it. The U.S. could also use the technique against foriegn enemies.

I have the world's weakest bladder.

Even elderly relatives of mine who have bladder control problems, prostate problems & adult diapers tend to complain about how I'm always having to go, even when we're not driving anywhere.

It's been that way my whole life. Even when I was a kid, the teachers would always call my mom to complain that I had to go more than anybody else.

There are times when... EXCUSE ME A MOMENT!!!

Nasty...yeah..but we we're starving.

Most supermarkets discount their prices right before closing time.  I"ve heard of people buying bread for less than $1 per loaf.

As for the napkins thing, they're not free.  Their purchase is built into the cost of your meal when you buy it.  It's a pet peeve of mine when retailers say "spend $200 and get this doovalackey for free!!!!"  And the sheeple think, "what a bargain!".  And there is nothing wrong with being cheap/frugal/thrifty whatever.  If it works for you, go with it.

When I grocery shop, I buy double of everything and put one away for a rainy day.  I consider it part of my "income protection plan" in case something happens to me and I can't work for a while.  At least my son and I will have food until I could get myself back on my feet.
