Weird Me

By P.B. Masdal |

Posted In : Personal and Family

Sam over at Cogito Ergo Sam tagged me for this theme, “Six Weird Things About Myself”. This actually sounds like a gargantuan irony since I feel like most of myself is weird in the first place and I should have been tagged for the “Six Normal Things About Myself” kind of theme. When I was in college, I always hear my close companies uttering to me “Gee, you’re really weird” or “How weird you are!”. When she’s mad at me, my wife use to shout at me, “You’re not normal, you’re abnormal”. Or “weird” for that matter.

But you know I had mostly felt good or just okay being “weird” because that implies that I am outside the ordinary, that I go against the grain, that I am aiming to buck the establishment, that I am radical and that essentially, I am a unique individual and there’s no one else like me. Einstein was weird. Van Gogh was weird. Even Bill Gates is weird…or maybe he is just trapped in that nerdy look.

But let’s get on with the tagging game.

Six Weird Things About Me:

1. I can go for hours without talking to somebody….like 24 hours if you ask me.

2. I listen to Metallica with the soundbox blasting so hard and in a moment I’d switch to Maria Callas.

3. I never drank softdrinks with plastic straws. I always gulp them straight from the bottle or pour them into a glass.

4. I always want to eat my meal in complete silence that I often ate after everybody had done their fill.

5. I work best when I am left alone.

6. I sing Italian love songs when I am in the shower.

For this, I had to see why these bloggers are sometimes weird:

1. Snglguy
2. Eric
3. Buffwings
4. Bing
5. RudyMan
6. Atticus

Please note that anyone who will bite this tag had to tag six other persons. See the complete rules at Cogito Ergo Sam.

   I’ll gladly do this, Major Tom. It should be fun, especially on this horribly rainy Tuesday.

   But what’s strange is that I was tagged by Jairam this morning and I had tagged you in turn. You don’t have to do it, if too much for now

2. Major Tom says; July 25, 2006 @ 7:38 am

   To eric: I’ll do that tag anytime eric…thanks for responding so positively…

3. eric says; July 25, 2006 @ 7:45 am

   Thanks, Major Tom. Having problems right now with my blogger site. Will post it as soon as able.

   wow i feel like i dnt hav to answer the question anymore, my blog and my posts are proof enough. but ill do it n besides i hav nothing else to blog about nowadays tnx

5. Sam says; July 25, 2006 @ 8:36 am

   Correct Major Tom, dapat nga sana ang itanong sa atin, yung normal things that we do. Parehas tayo na halos parang abnormal para sa iba ang normal para sa atin hehehe…. thanks for responding the tag.

6. snglguy says; July 25, 2006 @ 12:47 pm

   Hmmm, I think I’ve done this meme last year. But anyways, I’ll do it again. There might be other ‘weirdness’ about myself that I haven’t discovered yet…

   Oh, just like you, I never use straws when drinking softdrinks.

7. Major Tom says; July 26, 2006 @ 6:34 am

   To eric: Take your time eric….

   To rudyman: Can’t wait to see how you can get much weirder than now…

   To Sam: Yeah, maybe normal people ain’t the general rule after all for each of us could be weird in our own way…

   To sngl: I am sure there’d be more weird stuff somewhere tuck in your treasury…I’ll be watching out for that…

   2 is just amazing. Such flexibility!

9. Major Tom says; July 31, 2006 @ 7:01 am

   To Abaniko: It sometimes amazes me but my music preference for one moment often shifts that way. This might be one big result of music being played in computers where by just one click, we can play our sounds, unlike before when we have to rewind and unwind tapes just to get that right music for the right time…

    Hey Major Tom – i’ll respond to the tag a bit later on. I haven’t blogged for some time.

    Sounds like you’re a little bit of an introvert which isn’t bad at all. Some people get recharged when they are left alone, minu sthe disturbances.

11. Major Tom says; August 1, 2006 @ 5:37 am

    Introvert is a word often used by some of my colleagues to describe me in the past but I think that’s too steep a description…Maybe just introspective. I’d be highly anticipating your version of this, I am sure it’d be so interesting..

12. Toe says; August 4, 2006 @ 8:28 am

    Haha… that’s funny… changing the meme to “6 normal things about me.”

    I love ED Hardy T Shirts, and ED Hardy Shirts, but once again the brand that is notorious for it’s amazing tattoo art work has disappointed me yet again. Ed hardy has basically took the Louis Vuitton Speedy design and made a different yet horrific version. It seems thatCheap ED Hardy was trying to reach new heights with this style of bag, but in reality made a handbag that looks tacky.
