well, it could be a little both,Lisa..I like to do that in elevators. There was a hospital we used to go to and i had the timing down to where I coud announce the floor and "going up (or down) in perfect harmony.

I think I misunderstood the question Jim, I thought you meant what do we do in general for fun, not the silly crazy things..
Let's see, I talk to myself alot, not because I am nuts, but it relieves my tension to correct myself out loud or tell mylself I am messing up or that I need to relax. My BF and camryn think I am crazy, lol. But they never dare talk back to me when I am talking to myself nor do they ever interrupt my conversations with myself,lol. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to press all the buttons on the elevator when I am getting out on my floor, which is 6 and my office building goes up to the 20th floor. The one time I did it as soon as I got on, I pressed every floor from 6-20 and a guy got on at the 4th floor. It was just me in there, so the only logical choice would have been to apologize, but I decided to tell him some young kid just did it and got out on the 3rd floor,lol. I do it all the time, just not that many floors..lol.
I tap dance at inappropriate times.. and the secret is I dont really know how to tap dance, but I love to do it. Waiting in line at the grocery store, everyone is meanfaced, I tap dance. Late for a meeting tap dance your way to the conference table.
I am also obssesed with commercials and their jingles.. I cannot prevent myself from couch dancing to a commercial.."free credit report.come lets go!"
See -funny stuff. Now you'll pay even more attention to those signs won't you? lol
I moved from MA to KY last year and realized how little these states new about winter weather as there were signs that read "bridge slippery when frozen" at those little bridges on the highway....
I live in NH and go through Andover frequently and noticed a sign that said "Do not crosswalk block"
LOL beargizmo ur hilarious.
I like funny street signs of any kind... for instance - it's normal to see crosswalk signs for humans but to see a "CAUTION: Chicken crossing" sign in Massachusetts of all places is just awesomely silly. Sometimes I take a picture - more often than not I take the actual sign.... lol
I like to stare down my dogs until they whine in fear.... (LOL) more likely anticipation but humor me - then I randomly break into odd techno-b-boy-carlton-type dancing while singing whatever hit song is popular at the moment. Lately it's been "Blame It" by Jamie Foxx. Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol..... My dogs LOVE it!! If they could laugh hysterically - I just know they would.
I walk on my toes. Not on my tip toes like a ballerina but on my third joint with my toes completely flat on the ground so it looks like I have no toes.... it's hard to capture the full stupidness of this act unless you can see it in person. But I normally get "holy cr@p - doesn't that hurt?" I love that shock & horror reaction from people!
We all have a lot of odd habits don't we? :)
Heh heh...I told the doctor after he took my gall bladder out he should give it to me in a jar in case I missed it and wanted to have it put back in (seperation anxiety???). :-)
i'm a grown up now. i don't do stupid things anymore.
(if you believe that, you'll believe anything).
speaking of peanuts, my youngest daughter asked me last week where they come from..
"peanut trees" I said....they have seprart growing areas for salted an unsalted..helicopters fly over and spray salt on them..she was ok with that , but "what about honey roasted peanuts?", she inquired.. "well they have guy hat walk around with sprayers and they spray the honey on the, and the use defices in the grovers to put heat out...puse Georgia is not in the summer and that helps...she was satified until my wife spoke up.
Did you know gullible is not in the dictionary??? Go look for yourself
used a line I heard a talk show guy use one time just to get things going.."when I go out of town, I have all my pets put down, then get new ones when I get home" He had 2 hours of hate phone calls. People actually believe him. I used it on someone at work.
told a woman at work that when I lived in phoenix I got a flat tire (true)...it was 114 degrees out (true) and a nice cop stopped by and let me sit in his car and stay cool while HE changed the tire (also true)....
I told her there were a lot of flat tires out there because of the heat...people driving on the hot roads creates a magnetic field which draws nails to the tires, thus causing flats...she believed me.
My youngest daughter is very gullible and despite all the times I've fooled her, she still believes me..I love it
Jim
I was standing in line for a ride one time and just chit chatting with my wife...actually we weren't married then....told her I had my appendix out when I was 15, but I didn't like being without it, so I had them put it back in.
I took a picture of my dentures sitting on the counter with my phone camera and sent it to my daughters..I love to take them part way out of my mouth and make faces at them when my wife isn't looking.
Jim
I've started watching "Is it a good idea to microwave this?" on youtube.
I can't help it, it's totally stupid but I just HAVE to know what happens when you put an xbox360 in a microwave!!
I love acting a little crazy in public..while with family..they never know what to expect...Love ALL Madea movies..
OK now for the big question, do we do these things becuz we were using, or did we use becuz we did these things. I LOVE BEING CRAZY!!! I can get away with anything, kinda like old people they can fart anytime they want and nobody says anything cuz there old LOL
I make up songs about my dogs and sing them to them. I bet we have a lot of dog singers here......... I love folding laundry, only the white wash though. I guess I'm prejudice. lol
i "burp" my little chihuahua after she eats :)
me too jim...i honk my car horn in tunnels.
ya know those lighted reindeer made of vines that ppl put out at christmas? we go around and "mount" one on the back of the other...lol...looks like they are mating.
we also go around and collect "for sale" signs out of ppl's yards and cover our friend's front yards with them.
when i see someone letting their dog poop in my yard...i scoop it up and take it and put it at their front door. (i dont let my dogs poop in their yards...they owe me the same respect)
Man oh man we are a odd bunch lol! I talk to my cats keeps me sane. I by 40lbs of raw peanuts every week just to feed the birds squirrels, chipmonks.
I love ghost movies and paranormal shows!!! Oh and elfs, dragons,knights, movies like that.
Terry
You did say silly, well im 45 and I still shake my mirrors on my car with my Southern Fried Rock, dont have enough hair to shake now but i would if i could. And I like to take canned food outside and shoot it with my high powered rifles. Brown beans are the best.
You should hear the comments on the other end of the drive thru!!! Jibberish is a requirement too by the way!!!! LOL We love the couples that are fighting and come thru the drive thru. We can hear them but they cant hear us until we hit that little black button!!! I need to get a life!!!
I have a pair of mallard ducks that come into my yard everyday and i go out and throw them bird seed and chat with them........
Lisa...I used to be the same with cooking shows but I think I got bored with them (except those with Giada...she cooks so well)..now it's nature shows and reality TV like what's on TRUTV
i love my tv programmes, er, two and a half men, holby city and casuality (the last two some of you probably havent heard of) jim, i also love talking to my dogs and my cat, my husband thinks i am crazy!!!
Ya know how you can never understand the people at the fast food drive thru? They sound like they're talking gibrish(must be job requirment), well, I like to talk that way back at them, so they keep saying what?, excuse me?, could you repeat that?
I also talk to my dog, MiMi and she talks back.
Catfish'n at night, hunting camping, shooting bow even tho I had to stop after I got hurt just now able to start bow shooting again, and history. and anything ww2
