28 People Share Their 'Weird' Things And Ask If Others Do Them As Well

Every time I get up and leave a place, I quickly glance back a second time just to be sure I didn’t forget something where I was sitting. I also talk to my cat constantly, and I’ll never walk out of a store without purchasing anything without getting a pang of guilt because the employees might think I’m stealing. And as it turns out, these are all perfectly normal human habits!

Redditors have been discussing those odd things that we do instinctively but don’t often talk about, and they’ve confirmed that many of our “weird” behaviors are totally normal. Enjoy scrolling through this list, and be sure to upvote the not-so-strange little things you do too!

Person with short hair and large hoop earrings sitting by a window, reflecting on weird things people do.

I daydream constantly. I'll sit there and be imagining I'm the hero of some story, or I just won a billion dollars and how I'm spending it. I just have an imagination I get lost in when nothing is happening.

Person using a calculator and writing numbers on paper, illustrating weird things people do and asking if others do them too.

When I add 7 + 4, I break up the 4 into 3+1. 7+3 is obviously 10, 10+1=11.

There is probably several other examples of math problems I break up in my head to make solving easier.

Young woman eating cereal in a bright kitchen, illustrating weird things people do shared in a social discussion.

When I eat cereal (or other small separate food like corn or peas) I'll split it evenly in my mouth so I chew evenly on both sides. If one scoop has an odd number in it, I'll keep a tally of which "side is up" to know to put the next on bit on the other side.

I really thought this was normal until I told my wife that I do this and she has assured me that it isn't, along with making sure everyone else knows that I do this abnormal thing.

Person with red nail polish holding a glass of water, illustrating weird things people do and asking if others do them too.

The amount of water I can consume. I know they say you should drink when you are thirsty, but I can be thirsty a lot, especially during warm weather / summer days.

I can easily drink 100oz (or about 3L) of water a day.
