I can identify quite a fair few songs within seconds.

This might call for an "obscure skills" thread!

I can twist my hand 360 degrees; it creeps ppl out and funny thing is, I saw it on a magic show, tried it and did it, so it's not really magic
How do you mean? I'm struggling to conceptualise this haha.

Also, is it just me or does anyone enjoy eating ice cream/cold beverages in winter and hot beverages in summer? My mum gives me weird looks but I think it's normal...

For some reason I'm flexible, i.e. I can do the splits and the bridge, and I've never had any formal training in dancing or gymnastics. Another strange physical-related thing I can do is that I can plank up to 8 minutes. Again, never stepped my foot in the gym or had a personal trainer (and I still have some tummy flab lmao).ice cream/cold beverages in winter yes

Family dinner at my place nearly always involve ice-cream for dessert. Big fan ^-^

Now, I can only get it to 90 degrees. I think I probably lost the ability when I was about 16.

I reckon I sleep on the floor about three times per week. I'm not really sure why - it must be more comfortable at some points.Holy shit.
Consider a Z-lite .
My thing: I do Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Not that strange or unusual, just thought I'd take the cheeky chance to plug the sport. Great for your mental and physical health, and always great to learn an *effective* martial art!

Over the last few months I’ve always had a song playing in the back of my head, not like the lyrics being stuck in my head, it’s more like hearing music from far away. It’s more the beat than the lyrics, it’s sort of just always there. It’s actually come really distracting because it’s hard to focus on what I’m supposed to be doing when I’m too busy trying to listen to whatever song is in my head
I think it’s probably because I’ve been listening to music almost constantly lately. Even through most of my classes I’m allowed to have at least one headphone in (it’s just fish and outdoor Ed when I don’t listen to music).
Should probably cut back on the music because I can’t have music in exams and it’s gonna be hard to focus without it haha
I can’t really tell whether things I do aren’t strange - I tend to just assume it’s normal until someone points it out.
Oh actually I just thought of something! I don’t really have time for it these days, but I used to listen to songs to memorise things. Like I know about 25 numbers of Pi and I can sing the alphabet backwards because I went looking for songs to help me memorise them lol
Also @insanipi I’m pretty good at identifying songs a second in too! Although only if it’s music I listen to (or the pop songs I hear at work haha)

I always always listen to Disney songs when I'm stressed about something. It never fully hits me that I've got a deadline due until I go on a Disney song marathon- especially High School Musical songs.
As I am listening to Hannah Montana, it hits me that I have three film shoots in 1.5 weeks ahhhhhh

Whenever I am on an excursion or something, or in a strange place, I start planning how to escape from different things.
Like, if I am in a Bus, I start analyzing the various merits of different emergency exits in response to different types of emergencies.
Does anyone else do this?

I just kinda remembered this...nope.... but i just laughed out loud reading that! ;D

Yep.
I also analyse things like how a crowd might respond to if there was an emergency
(Interesting fact: In an emergency situation, people will leave a room quicker if the exit is in the corner of a room rather than the middle of a wall (assuming same exit size, number of people etc))

Btw you should try it if you haven't, it tastes good.

All my friends think it's weird that I eat yoghurt on my toast. I don't think it's that weird, it's sort of just milky jam! ;D

Well, this definitely qualifies for the thread. Haha.

You might like drinking ayran! Equal parts yoghurt and water, pinch of salt
Update: yeah sorry that's weird :D

I always think a number if someone says a colour (or vice-versa) (eg. white=1, yellow=2, green=3, orange=4, red=5, pink=6, purple=7, blue=8, brown=9, black=10) also - the colours of the numbers which equal up to 10 are usually complementary! I don't know if this makes any sense/ anyone else does it? ??? :-\
