Animal Crackers and other odd rituals
So today I wrote my sister an email asking her how she ate her animal crackers. We have many of the same little crazy quirks, so I was interested to know if she ate the head off before she devoured the rest of the cookie.
You're thinking about it...you might as well go ahead and answer...how do you eat your animal cookies?
Please leave a comment.
She gave me her response as well as the response from other people in her office. One very interesting ritual(and I do mean ritual) was disclosed. I will post all the replies later, but don't want to post them now for fear of them manipulating other people's answers.
You should think about some other things that make you pretty much crazy, and post them too.
I'll give you an example of a few of mine.
I always shave the same way...the left "outside" of my face, then the right "outside", then my upper lip, the middle part, and then my neck. Then I re-lather up, and do it the exact same way again. I've tried to do different, but I really have to sit and try to accomplish a difference. I think this might be why I hate shaving so much.
If there are two different light switches in a room that control the same light...it drives me crazy for one of them to be flipped up to turn off the light. My sister made me aware of this one.
Open doors or drawers drive me crazy!!! I can't stand to see an open door...I am constantly closing a fellow workers bottom drawer when she leaves it open...drives me nuts. I've only recently been able to sleep with an open door in my room, and that was so that Poon Tang could get in. If you haven't read any of my earlier post, you may want to catch up on that.
I eat all the skin off of fried chicken before I eat the chicken. I mean all the skin...if I buy a two piece, then I eat the skin off the two pieces before I even eat one bite of chicken...same with a three piece.
I haven't been very political the last week or so, and I won't get in too deep now...but I will tell you what Freedom is to me right now.
Freedom is the fact we can all be a little crazy, and not be ashamed to show it. We can all be a little different, and that's what makes us normal. We don't have to conform to our government's schedule. So whether you're way out left, or way out in right, You're still a fucking nut job...and that's okay! That's what Freedom means!

One should always eat the head off of the animal cracker first. The whole head. Otherwise its just inhumane. - M
Head first on animal crackers, always. it's just the way it is and should be.
other quirks:
eat all fries before eating burger. always.
That's the beauty of the US - you are free to be as obsessive compulsive as you desire. And I take full advantage of that...
Heck, I eat the entire animal cracker at the same time. I'm sure next time I get them, I'll eat it limb by limb though. :)
I eat the edges of things first: cookies, hamburgers, chocolate bars. Eat the fringe then balance things back and forth eating from all sides. I can't just bite into it.
