Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

Whenever I get into an interest which/whose creator has an extensive history, I end up feeling a sense of loneliness/disconnect with other fans who have been following it/them for a long time.

For example, I became a fan of Vivienne Medrano through Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss, but I'm aware that there's people who have been following her since her Zoophobia days. I'm currently correcting this by reading the comic via the Internet Archive.

When I played Dragon Quest 3 I had a female Wizard and a Priest. My Plan was to make them a Priest and a Wizard, switching their roles once I had learned all the Spells... But since I was impatient and didnt want to NOT miss learning any spells I simply turned them into Sages.

To D Jcody: Thanks for suggesting ArrowVortex to me. For the right songs (such as most of the eurobeat tracks I've tried), I get a good sync almost instantly. Sadly there are still songs I have trouble getting right... I guess they have some quirks that make them more difficult to sync, and I should just try something else for now...

I found Deadpool and Wolverine offensive and forgettable. The dog that played Dogpool won an award for its performance despite being disabled. Sure, it’s just a dog and the movie isn’t good but knowing this feels reassuring.

I use a swivel chair, and sometimes I find it relaxing to move from side to side in a rocking motion when I'm sitting in it.

I used to not like it but The Gunheart made me realize I love mecha stuff. I used not to, but his love for the genre and him kindly elaborating on why he liked it changed my mind.

For some reason, I sometimes get a runny nose during the twilight hours (so early morning and late evening). My mother does too; she thinks it has something to do with our sinuses.

Sometimes my nose gets weird and itchy when I eat, but I have no idea what triggers it because it seems very sporadic; I can eat that exact same food the next day and have no issues. -shrug-

When I was reading the trope page for Fire Emblem: Three Houses before I actually played the game, I had no idea what any character except Byleth, Sothis, the three house leaders, and of all people Petra looked like, so I pictured every female character as Petra until I actually played the game.

When bored, I'll basically make mental fanfics. That's not the odd part; the odd part is that I feel the need to explain in the daydream how all the events are happening. Like, why is this canonically dead character here? How did everyone end up in this weird crossover? I'm literally the only one with knowledge of these stories and yet I still can't just be silly with it. Idk why, it's not like these will ever be written down or anything, they're solely kept to my imagination

For some reason, whenever I see a word with "super-" prefixed to it (like "supermodel" or "supercomputer" or such), I tend to imagine the "base" word (in the two cases, "model" or "computer") with capes. ;-;"

Thread tax: I have some weird aversion to drinking water out of glasses. I can drink anything else from a glass — but I need water to be in a bottle or else I'm weirded out by it (I'll still drink it but it's somehow less enjoyable). I have no explanation for this.

I don't know if it's just me, but the smaller the unit of time used, the less time it feels like.

For example, 3650 days feels like less time than 10 years, and 315,569,520 seconds feels like even less time... even though they're all the same amount of time.

I think The Sims 4 is aware of my tendency to romance the married ladies.

I play that game in a weird way by ignoring established townies and instead just filling the world with sim versions of characters I like from other media, having them have babies, and then making families with those babies. That or rando families / townies. IDK. Just find it more fun ig lol

I still play The Sims 3 and have no interest in ever trying The Sims 4, in big part because I like the fantasy/supernatural/sci-fi content in the former (well, also open world, create-a-style tool etc.) and I dislike the art style in the latter (too cartoony for my taste — and male Sims generally look better in TS3, especially if we're going for Pretty Boys). Some fantastic mods and custom content (such as custom worlds) ensure TS3's longevity for me. I've been procrastinating playing that game for months because I've complex storylines and original characters in my head and executive dysfunction but sshhhh

That said, I still am jealous of TS4's gender customization and the City Living singing skill. I wish TS3 had that instead of that "Simport" thing. (Kind of waiting for when someone mods the skill into TS3, it might take an eternity but there are some pretty impressive mods around...)

I can never give my essays or other school projects ridiculous Working Titles because I know there's too much of a chance I'll end up accidentally submitting it with that title and now I have to explain why I submitted an essay called "fart ass" or something.

Besides, most of the time an assignment title is pretty much already given to the class (like "Themes in (book title)" or "Career Essay"), so I tend to already have something that works fine, even if it's not particularly interesting.

Cold turkey's getting stale. Tonight I'm eating crow.
