I hate cucumbers. I don’t want them in my salad or in my cocktail. I definitely don’t want cucumbers in my ice water. Beyond the taste, I get heartburn just thinking about cucumbers.

I like cake. I love ice cream. I loathe ice cream cake. It represents the best of neither.
I have never seen Star Wars. Or the original Footloose.
Star Wars was released in 1977, before I turned four years old so I can understand them not taking me to see it when released. But later? Someone please explain.
Footloose came out in 1984, a few months after I turned ten. The film was rated PG so I guess I can understand if they thought I was too young, but I was an avid dancer who loved music. Why didn’t my rebel godmother take me???
I have never owned nail clippers.
Maybe if my parents had, I wouldn’t have resorted to biting my nails. Huh, Mom??
Mint chocolate anything is, to me, an abomination.
NO to mint Oreos, mint M&Ms and most definitely NO to mint chocolate ice cream.
I’m allergic to pink eyeshadow.
When I was a kid, no one read “Where The Wild Things Are” or “The Giving Tree” or “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” to me. It’s like I was raised by wolves.
I have never played basketball. Not even one time. If you know what I do for a living, you understand how strange this is.
Harry Potter? Nope, I haven’t read any of the books or seen any of the films.
I like the smell of skunks. Growing up in small town Pennsylvania, I guess the scent reminds me of playing outdoors in the neighborhood.
I love the smell of chlorine. It reminds me of swimming. I started taking swimming lessons at the YMCA when I was just two years old because my mother didn’t want me to be afraid of the water. Fat chance.
I LOVE swimming. Just not in lakes. I hate lakes. Pools, oceans and seas for me only.
Let me know how you’re weird. Don’t leave me hanging.
Updated:
I have never watched an entire James Bond film. Or a Dirty Harry movie.
I have also never seen any of the American Pie movies.
I can never have enough lemonade. When I was about twelve, I drank so much VeryFine that the lining of my mouth started shedding in big pieces. No, I didn’t stop drinking lemonade then–I just cut back.
I have never seen the movie Titanic in its entirety…I also think mint and chocolate is one of the worst flavor combinations ever created…I have never eaten bologna.
I’m so grateful to hear about the quirks of others
I do not like honey or mustard but I love honey mustard.
My long, short list of quirks includes:
-I will not eat meat off the bone. No ribs, no wings.
-I will not go on a cruise. Ever.
-I have never seen any Indiana Jones movie.
-I have to sleep with a sound machine on.
-I don’t love chocolate.
-I don’t like sandwiches.
I’m 100% with you. No wait, I love chocolate. You’re right: you’re weird!
(just kidding. ILY.)
1. I need noise to go to sleep. I blame that on having hamsters years ago. When they were silent, it scared me.
2. I don’t drink coffee.
3. It’s not that I never watched Star Wars but I never watched a movie fully other when I was forced to go watch Episode 1 with friends. The ironic thing is that if I were born a girl, I would’ve been named Leia.
4. I don’t eat desserts unless it’s all chocolate. And even then I can only eat so much of it.
5. I listen to boy bands (wait, everyone that knows me knows that).
I’m weird in tons of ways. I also hate swimming in lakes or rivers (fear of snakes, gators from growing up in Florida), but oceans (sharks, rays, fish…) no problem.
My most hated food as a kid was asparagus. I had only had it canned until a few years ago. Now, it’s one of my favorites. Fresh. Local. Grilled.
I was voted Most Unique in high school. I’m not altogether certain that’s a compliment. But, the guy who was my counterpart looked like Robert Smith from The Cure and I thought that was the coolest.
Fistbump to Kathleen: I also hate eating anything off the bone. Wings gross me out.
When I was on a cruise (once) my friend asked me what I was thinking about. I replied, “rogue waves and terrorists”
PS. Sweet bathing suit. I had the Wonder Woman underoos and LOVED em.
Awesome across the board. I had those underoos and desperately wanted to wear them outside the house.
I have never eaten a chicken wing. Bones plus ligaments, tendons and more. NO!
You should add “Most Unique” to your twitter bio right now.
1. I have never eaten at Five Guys, Chipotle, and I have never had a McDonalds hamburger.
2. We didn’t get a microwave until I was in 5th grade, and we never had an answering machine. The phone just keeps ringing (STILL) if you call my parent’s house.
3. I can’t eat white condiments such as mayo or sour cream. Totally makes me want to vomit.
4. I don’t like eating a bowl of just one cereal. I have to mix cereals. My favorite combo is Crispix and Honey Nut Cheerios.
5. I have never seen Casablanca, A Christmas Story, or One Flew Over the Cukoo’s Nest.
Pretty sure there is so much more but this is all I can think of at the moment.
I struggle to imagine life without Chipotle but the world can have Five Guys.
Like you I mix cereals. Right now it’s Cinnamon Chex (got hooked when I though I had celiac disease) and raisin bran.
I saw One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest as a child somehow (excellent parenting) but like you, haven’t seen the others.
