Weird friends, have you any?
I once had a friend that wouldn't wash her hands in a public restroom as it was "gross"

alt: tell me about your weird habits, past or present.
I used to knock on wood, only in threes, if I thought something bad about someone else I would tap on wood three times. This could be endless if I was having a shit day.

I'm a larper. I have very few normal friends
I have a friend who wrote a blog about a dream about shagging a cat, another who for some years insisted on running naked into the sea at new year, another who asked a friend if he could have a wank in his tent, said person assumed he was joking, until he walked in on him.

The other week when I went to this fashion freebie thing, I had a go in this body scanner jobby.
The woman said it could only see me if I was wearing white underwear, and what colour underwear was I wearing? I had to tell her I had black on top and nude on the bottom, and she looked disapproving.

Not as disapproving as I looked when she made me wear a lender bra in completely the wrong size.

*And* I looked like a fat munter when I got the scan back, too.
