Things you find weird that everybody else doesn't. - General

[QUOTE=greeley;48219487]Farting being "vile" Its a natural thing, why is it considered disgusting and rude. 50-60 years ago it was considered praise for a good meal. Same with belching.[/QUOTE] Because it smells bad maybe?

I understand obviously don't do a massive stink bomb of a fart whilst eating and shit, thats just common courtesy. But i mean just like sitting down, watching TV and you feel uncomfortable because of it. Its a natural thing and people shouldn't get pissy with it. I bet if it was made such a social norm and not bad by TV and Radio and a running joke then it would be natural and people would just fart whenever.

Obviously i'm one of those people that fart alot and loudly, thus why i say that lol.

And if they do, it's almost if I can just hear that the caus is their unhealthy diet.

p sure the frequency of farting and belching has more to do with gas intake into your digestive system than anything to do directly with diet. Like, if you chug water or drink a lot of carbonated drinks you're swallowing a lot of air/CO2, which leads to that. Food does play a role, but it's not caused by "unhealthy foods", it's just certain hard-to-digest starches that increase the frequency of it. Food that cause this include cauliflower, beans, and cabbage. It's not "unhealthy" foods that cause it. You've probably just inadvertently cut down on some foods that cause flatulence when improving your diet, and associated less farts with a better diet.

congratulating people with other people's birthday. like for example, you're at a birthday party of your nephew and you and your grandpa congratulate each other like why? what did we contribute/accomplish? you should only congratulate the person that is celebrating!

Why does the Nobel Peace Prize always seem to end up in the hands of warmongers and people who cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people?

[QUOTE=Rangergxi;48227197]Why does the Nobel Peace Prize always seem to end up in the hands of warmongers and people who cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people?[/QUOTE] Because the people who decide are a bit weird and like causing controversy, it seems.

Go figure As for me, tight jeans on dudes. I don't know how they do it but my dick is destroyed if I even try to put them on, and I just don't see the appeal of nearly having my blood circulation cut off every time I crouch.

I tried to wear a pair when i was a teen and oh my fucking god. i thought i was getting castrated. i could barely even sit down and they are not comfortable at all. They might aswell just not have pockets either because you can fit shit in them.

Other than that it's not uncomfortable. It's just not very practical.

(Then again, a lot of carbonated drinks are unhealthy, right?)

[QUOTE=GastricTank;48195239]Having an automotive hobby. I mean it has its use(s), like being more knowledgeable about how to fix your car if something broke, but most of the time, it's just gawking at cars, posting them on facebook and saying "wow look at this beauty wish i had it". And then what? You drive your "special" car out and about, feeling proud of yourself, when my dad's hilariously shitty 2000 Dodge Caravan can do the same thing. No one truly has the money or space to support this hobby unless you're super crazy rich. It's not like you can build a collection to show off your hobby.[/QUOTE] You know what's weird? Having a sports car and doing nothing more than driving your kids to school and then to work. It's useless. It's a waste. It's stupid. It's vanity.

If you got the legs to show off you should do so. As for the whole snug fit on the genitals part its not bad if you don't have elephant balls or whatever. Also higher quality ones usually have better/deeper pockets so as long as you are not trying to carry your entire life's possessions they are great. I easily carry keys, a phone, wallet, passport, gum/cigarette case without any problem whatsoever (although carrying a bunch of shit usually is not advised because it looks weird having outlines of all that on your jeans.)

Pokémon. I don't see the appeal

I got a moose knuckle problem even with loose jeans, I don't wanna know how bad it would be with skinny ones

Football (or soccer). Why does everyone love it? It's just some silly sports game where people go mad when a team lose.

Bandwagoning over social justice issues ie the ridiculous confederate flag hatetrain

Speaking of jeans: I don't get women's fashion. No pockets, thin shirts, high heels, random holes, etc. I know some of the problems are due to the fashion industry being greedy and putting out arbitrary "new styles" as much as possible, and trying to squeeze out as much money as they can (such as with that durable pantyhose patent that was bought and never used), but for some things, I don't know why women put up with it. There's also that current style of a shirt and shorts that have the exact same color and pattern. It just looks silly. I guess they're called "playsuits" or something? And they really [I]are[/I] one piece of clothing? They don't look nice. There were also those dresses with the waistband/whatever-you-call-it right under the breasts. Sure, it accentuated your boobs, but it also made your belly look fat. I haven't seen those for a while, though. I don't understand belly button piercings, either.

[QUOTE=WrathOfCat;48237630]ie the ridiculous confederate flag hatetrain[/QUOTE] Tell me if I'm wrong but the confederate stuff is part of the US history. Denying it is just like saying it nevet happened. People get mad over the smallest shit they shouldn't care about.

parties/celebrations where food isn't involved

Online Piracy, I just find it strange how people can go to such lengths to download something only worth 10 bucks or less from a sketchy site

Automatic doors are incredible to me. Just the fact that they're so... ordinary. It's really the one thing that makes me feel like I'm living in the future.

I asked him what he was using his computer for, and he said, "gaming". He doesn't model. He doesn't do any crazy technical work. He's not a programmer. He's not a video editor. He's a gamer.

[QUOTE=Taloc111;48240091]Online Piracy, I just find it strange how people can go to such lengths to download something only worth 10 bucks or less from a sketchy site[/QUOTE] Sometimes it's literally more convenient to pirate shit than to buy it and get it legitimately, however things like Netflix, Steam and Spotify combat this by making the honest option the most convenient option.

[QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;48166476]Feet I fucking hate feet, I find them weird and absolutely repulsing, if I didn't need my feet to survive I'd cut them off.
