Default Tedow's QOTD #6: What's weird about you?

I have a confession to make: I'm a weirdo. I'm sure there's many reasons other would say that, but here's two that I find particularly abnormal:

1) I am a photic sneezer. What's that mean, you ask? It means when I walk outside into sunlight or bright glare without sunglasses on, I will sneeze. Regular as clockwork. I remember reading an article about this a couple years ago in Discover magazine. Apparently, 10% of the population (of the US?) are photic sneezers. Scientists still (at that time) had no idea why sunlight would cause someone to sneeze. I mean, WTF? That's weird.

2) After I eat, my nose runs. Every time I eat a meal, for the next hour or two I'm wiping my nose all the time. What the hell is that all about? It only started about a year ago too. Coincidentally, it started about the time I grew a mustache, so I thought maybe the whiskers were pre-warming air going into my nose causing condensation, or something silly like that. But then my grandmother mentioned that my great-grandmother was the same way. So apparently it's genetic.

So there you have it...that's why I'm a screwball. What makes you a little, um....strange? Don't worry, we're all friends here!

What's weird about me? hmmmm....

When I sneeze, I don't stop... I mean, I've sneezed about 25 times in a row once.... painful as hell, but kinda funny too

I think it's soooooooo cute when a guy has "standing-off-ears"... Of course they have to be nice ears that stand off!

And all my friends tell me that that's veeeeeeeery weird

I only have 3 bottom front teeth (not total).... normal people have 4 right in a row.... somehow I was inbred into having just 3.

I sneeze after eating a mint or chocolate..... it happens about 95% of the time...... so.. I don't eat chocolate or mints.

o ya.. and my cock is like 15" long!

I'm not weird at all (yeah, right) but I have a client that sneezes every time we discuss money. Explain that one.
