I just saw this thread.
Victor, Did your office requirement leave you with a few screws loose? ;^)

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

TP has to be over the top

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Over the top, from the front, and do-si-do.

Toothpaste just squeeze until it gets low then roll from the bottom.

When you load the dishwasher, are there certain places for certain dishes? Do you move them around if someone else loads it (wrong)? Yes, and I do.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

ooohh that's a Randy one.. he always moves stuff after I put it in.. if he hears me loading the dishwasher he has to come step in.. now if I can just get him to close a cabinet after he opens it.. life would be better!

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

WoW! I never pay attention to which way the TP is on the holder. Sometimes it doesnt get put on there at all:-)

Maybe my quirk is that I use so much of it, I need the roll free so I can wind it around my hand a bunch of times and make a big thick pad out of it. It doesnt stay around long enough to need a holder:-0 (too much information?) lol

I also microwave my ice cream. I like it soft and creamy, not icey.

North Augusta, ON

I think my biggest quirk is my pillows. I MUST have 2. A feather one underneath and a foam one on top. They have to be fluffed and positioned just so or I just can not sleep.If I go anywhere overnight I take them with me.
DH thought he was helping one day by washing my pillows. He put the foam one in the dryer and it melted...I didn't sleep right for 3 nights until I found a suitable replacement...

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

DH also mics his ice cream just for a few seconds.

Pillows definitely need to be correct.

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

Yes! Pillows are very important. I need 4:-)

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

o the poor eggs :( I put the empty shells back in the carton so they know whose next.

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

I use egg beaters. They are already doomed:-)

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Hee hee - Dave, I cam in with a few already loose!

Joyce, Sheryl Crowe would have real issues with you.

One pillow for me.

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

2 pillows, the foam one on the bottom and the feather on top. I don't travel often but if I do they go with me!

I can't go shoe less...never bare feet and barely sandals. I could sleep in my shoes with no problem

North Augusta, ON

In the summer I'm the opposite, can't stand to wear shoes!!

DH sleeps fully dressed.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

I hope everyone leaves the tags on their pillows as required by the Pillow Police. I am always in dahliafeets except when its snowfull. Then I wear my trusty gumboots inside and out. This year though I am wearing special handmade sockies with stripes that were a present.

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

I would be more comfortable sleeping in my clothes!! LOL then I'm ready if anything happens in the middle of the night...which it has and I had to get changed!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

I remembered one that drives me crazy! When someone (usually women who don't like sports at all) says a score backwards! Yesterday my wife said the Jets won 14-17. I cringed!

Huron, OH(Zone 5b)

I've learned to walk away when DH is loading the dishwasher. I figure it's getting cleaned anyway, even if it's loaded wrong.
I'm never without shoes too. Feet get cold easily, always have.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

I'm not barefoot too often. Only in summer on nice soft grass.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

And the Cowboys lost 3-34 too! Darn shame!

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

Never get the scores right and will admit other than hockey I am a sports boo hoo to say the least. To many over paid under educated people that still get millions for spraining an ankle and not playing or should I say working. I promise I won't get on my soapbox!! LOL

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

What do you really feel?

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

Ha! Sheryl Crowe?

I cant sleep with the TV on. I think it gives subliminal messages.

I'm never barefoot except at the beach.

I sleep with a lot of clothes too. And always have clean underwear in case something happens, like mom always warned.

North Augusta, ON

Hubby sleeps with his day clothes on...jeans, belt, socks, shirt...that's different than sleeping with a lot of sleep type clothes. I need my flannel jammies.

I have to have a fan running to sleep...

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

Red satin jammies for sleeps. They aremy fav gardening outfit too. Threegardeners be careful not to have flannel sheets if you wear flannel jammies. They do the velcro thing and you will have to worm wiggle your way out (which can be an emergency if you have to pee and start to giggle at the same time as you are worm wiggling)

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

I'm always barefooted or just socks, no one is allowed to wear shoes inside my house.

I have to rearrange if hubby puts stuff in the dishwasher.

Drives me nuts if someone chews hard candy as soon as the put it in their mouth.

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

Dnut! Thats too funny. Silk on silk is just as bad:-)

Sorry Jen, guilty, I cant help chewing instead of sucking:-)

North Augusta, ON

Drives me insane when DH, or anybody really, wears socks with his shorts or with sandals on...

I got a funny visual with the worm wiggling dnut! I have to do that to get out of bed with both dogs under the covers with me.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

So true jadajoy. The commercials with ladies sleeping in silk on silk are way too funny. No wonder they need sleep drugs; they are always sliding out of bed.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Joyce - Sheryl said we should use one square.

I like wearing underwear outside my pants.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

or on your head at parties like lampshades, but not neckties. I just recently learned what a necktie party was :O

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

LOL. Victor that reminds me of that older woman office worker in the movie 'Splash". She came to work with her bra outside her blouse! Funniest scene in the movie.

Oh Sheryl, one square? Might as well use your hand...lol.

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

I'm clueless...necktie party???

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Quoting:
or on your head


You mean like this???

Jadajoy apparently a necktie party is a hanging. They used that expression when they hung train robbers in the 1800s. I heard it when we were discussing lampshades-on-your-head partys and I thought it was a party where everyone wore neckties DUH!

flowerjen that is the cutest!

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

Gotcha dnut. A Marie Antionette get together ;-)

Cuyahoga Falls, OH(Zone 5a)

Jan23 - The dishwasher - I do load it in a particular order, and if anyone else puts dishes in it (yeah, right !) I rearrange them.

jadajoy - I got a chuckle out of the clean underwear comment. My grandma always told me to wear clean underwear in case I was in an accident. When I was in my early 30's, I was in a motorcycle accident. While I was laying in the street, my first thought was "Grandma was right !"

South Hamilton, MA

I load dishwasher back to front (easier to see I say). DH front to back. How do these people get it wrong? :o

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

Too cute FJ!

Country Mom-- LOL! And she said, no matter what, keep a quarter tucked in somewhere, to make a phone call home, just in case :-)

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

3g if it is cold or at night and the bugs are out - i will wear hiking socks with my teva's - wife says i look dorky as do my sister and her boy friend we go camping with - i could care less, i am a mosquito magnet and rather them not bit me on my feet - i would not put on white socks though - usually blue or green hiking socks
