When buying potions/antidotes etc in RPG games I always top up to the nearest number ending in 5 or 0 even if this leaves me completely broke.
Sort of related, when I play any RPG, the first thing I do when I get enough money is buy 99 potions. Don't know why. Helps for when I don't have any tents though.
 
Whenever I make a post/thread I seem to always overlook at least 1 mistake, whether it be spelling, grammar, or wording especially when I wake up or when I'm about to go to sleep or when I'm typing on my phone.

I'm the king of typos.
And I enjoy fighting arguments I can't win
 
ITT we post things you do that you think no one else does.

I take cereal and put it in a ziplock baggie, then open it slightly and just pour the cereal in my mouth. I hate having dirty or sticky fingers, so if I'm eating like...Cinnamon Toast Crunch or something nothing gets on my hands. Plus it saves a bowl, too. And it's easy to save for days!

Whenever I'm thirsty and I pour myself a glass of something, I'll either take a quick drink from the container to temporarily quench my thirst or I'll take a drink from the glass and then just fill it up again.

that cereal thing you do is gross, what if you tip it too far all the milk will go on your face, i admit i do the drink thing though i live alone so i don't care :D.


 
I scan rooms for skulltulas, my only fear in a Zelda game. (Wind Waker FTW)
And whenever I see a mosquito, I kill it ASAP with a blunt object. I do this because of being stung by about 4, getting covered in hives, going to the hospital, being diagnosed with a severe allergic reaction, and staying at the hospital for the night. When I was 3. In CANADA!
And just in case, I no longer get hives, I just get these bites that last for 2 months or so.
 
Whenever somebody takes a GBAtemp screenshot, it feels weird seeing someone else's username on the top-right part.

When I play RPGs, I never buy potions. In fact I never buy anything until the enemies kill me in one hit :blink:

I do the same thing, except I'll usually upgrade weapons/armor. Usually weapons first, than armor later.
 
I love odd numbers.

I've been having this issue with my air con. At 25, it's too warm. At 23 it's too cold.
It's taken me 6 month to even entertain the possibility that 24 might be just the right temperature. Even having confirmed this to be the case, I still usually do the "25 23 Shuffle" rather than set it to 24.

I've got mild paranoia. I always think to myself in early game: "Damn, if I buy gear now, they'll be entirely useless in the next 10 level ups and I'll be too broke then to buy better equipment.". So for the first quarter of the game, my character, an epic hero, runs about in rags and swinging sticks like a pauper :rofl:

If i pour a glass of something and there's less than a full glass left in the bottle, I'll drink the rest out of the bottle real quick and then take my glass and go sit down.

I order pizza and then bake it on my pizza stone in the oven for another 10 minutes or so to crisp up the bottom crust without burning it...
 
Got another one.

I absolutely hate sticky/filthy hands.

I wash mine atleast 20 times a day when I'm at home and I'm always rubbing them clean when I'm somewhere.


I can't even touch filthy things like filthy controllers or steeringwheels filled with grease etc.

I don't wash my hands unusually often but I always have to have hand sanitizer on my desk, nightstand, in my purse.
But I also have to keep microfiber cloths everywhere (it's easy to get them in bulk if you look in the dish towel or car care section at a dollar store) to keep the things I touch with my hands spotlessly clean. Though I also settle for paper towels.


edit: ALSO
When I prepare a bowl of something hot, I usually put it in a second (CLEAN) bowl, so that I can hold it without burning myself and eat it where I wish inside the house. There's rarely any space on our tables so I've been doing this for a long time.

Y'know, I never thought to do something like that before...genius, lol.

I just run my hands under really cold water for like 20 seconds and then i'm able to carry hot things to my destination with ease.
