Something you do, or used to do, that people think is gross...

Compulsive nail-chomper.

 

Seriously dated a lawyer.

 

I once had to knock down an old outhouse, redig the pit and build a new one.

Smart people just dig a hole in a new location.

But, this was in the Colorado mountains, and my grandmother wanted the new one where the old one was.

The digging wasn't so bad, after the first couple of feet.

I built the new one with a lined pit, so that it can be pumped, if necessary.

 

As a 7-year-old and a 17-year-old, they were!

 

When I was in college, we made coffee with Mountain Dew. It was surprisingly not bad.

 

Not really gross, just weird: I make a sammich, but I eat it in layers (as in, eat one piece of bread then whatever is on the sammich) instead of eating it normally.

 

Pop my kneecaps.

 

Why not just eat everything separately then? Think of all the hours you've wasted in your life assembling sandwiches, only to disassemble them layer by layer to eat the items individually.

 

I get major callous from the sandals I wear, my heels are cracked and gray. I will sit at home and pick at the cracked parts and peel off the callouses bit by bit.

I also peel off the dead skin on my lips (usually with my teeth) and eat it.

 

When I was a kid I used to bite my toenails.

 

I've always loved buffalo chicken and various hot foods.

Point being, I used to be able to empty out a room like nobody's business.

I still could, except no one wants to be in a room with me anymore.

 

God, I was in Peace Corps. In Morocco. My answers would frighten most.
