I enjoy eating cheese after having eaten something chocolate. No idea why, no idea when I started doing it but I've been doing it for about as long as I can remember.
Pickles* after ice cream for me. A sweet flavor doesn't really feel like the best ending for me.
*With chile powder

I don't find it weird, but people around me sure seem to: pizza sauce that isn't tomato-based. Just simple stuff like basil pesto, or garlic and olive oil, or Alfredo sauce.
Beets.
I genuinely enjoy being in countries or communities where I don't speak the dominant language well- or at all. It forces me to actually pay attention.
I love (and I mean love) reading scholarly articles on emergency policy, think-tank papers on systems theory, and post-mortems of disaster events and cyberattacks.
I like it when the air is so cold I can feel the hairs inside my nose freezing when I inhale (reminds me of my childhood). Similarly, I have a perverse appreciation for blizzards.
I vastly prefer worldbuilding to telling stories in the worlds I create- whether by gaming, writing, you name it.

I confess that I really like chocolate-covered raisins. I like the local supermarket brand best, because the chocolate Nestle uses on their Raisinets has taken a noticeable drop in quality.
Chocolate raisins are the best. Though, to be fair, I’ll eat raisins with any type of outer coating. Chocolate, vanilla, yogurt, any and all are foodstuffs fit for the gods.
I’ve never had peanut butter covered raisins, though . . . are those even a thing?

As a kid, we made what they called "ants on a log."

I really dig watching YouTube channels like Dr. Pimple Popper and The Toe Bro. Based on the sheer number of subs they each have I know I'm not alone in my enjoyment but my husband keeps telling me it's super gross and weird.
Oh well :3
I have a friend who truly enjoys such things after a stressful day, she says there is nothing more relaxing other than a bottle of wine and a hot bath.

Throughout the '80s I bought vinyl hard rock and metal albums (this dwindled to almost nothing after CDs became the most popular medium and I also got married in 1993. Other things began to take priority). Anyway, I used to spend hours and hours making mix tapes of my favorite songs from the new LPs I'd purchased. I still have them, over 200 in total. And they still play. But I don't own a working cassette player anymore so, using Spotify, I've begun building playlists of each of those old cassettes. It's oddly relaxing and I am thoroughly enjoying going back through the soundtracks of my youth.

I was borrowing my mom's old 2002 Buick for a few months recently, and it only has a tape deck in the car. I had to go find some of my old mix tapes and try them out. Most of the songs carried over pretty well, whether they were songs that I had completely forgotten about or they were songs that I could smugly think about how I liked them before they became popular. And then there were the songs that I was strangely interested in for some reason I can no longer fathom....

"old 2002 Buick..."
Its true, but man as a lifelong GM owner its weird hearing something from the oughts being "old". Speaking of which, I miss my Olds Tornado. That was a classic ride.
About 2002 in fact, I was driving a box truck for the retail chain I was working for. Myself and about 2-3 others took shifts driving. The truck had a cassette player. I pulled out an old copy of the Singles soundtrack I had. Nobody ever took it out and raved about how great an album it was (it still is).

There is nothing edible in this world that I love more than peppermint. While I cannot mentally grasp the concept of hating mint, I do accept your choice and promise not to attempt to convert you. If you like white chocolate, we may have to setup some white chocolate for peppermint exchange program.
Tis the season for almond and peppermint bark!
Wait, wait, WAIT!!! Peppermint grows on the outside of trees?!?! {runs outside, starts biting trees and shrubbery}

White chocolate, while not my favorite form of chocolate, is acceptable. I accept your terms.

I love a good pun or witty turn of phrase, but only when attention isn't called out to it specifically. This means I adore shows like Mystery Science Theater 3000, where they don't stop the bus to explain to the children in the back where the funny is. The people for whom the joke is meant will get it, and I appreciate when people have confidence in their audience. On a similar note, sitcoms without laugh tracks are my jam.

Almost 17 years ago. Speaking of which, I love it when people find creative ways to mark unexpected passages of time.
Speaking of which, I miss my Olds Tornado. That was a classic ride.
I didn't know what that looked like until I looked it up, and I recognized it instantly. Definitely a classic.

Speaking of autos, anybody remember the Plymouth Rampage? This bad boy was like a mini cooper version of the El Camino. I have only seen one in person, but it always made me laugh becasue of the name. You wouldnt be on much of a rampage at all in that thing!

My 7 year-old explains to me why "Jingle Bells, Batman Smells" is funny. Every time he sings it. Every time.
Man, my 7- and 4-year-olds cannot stop saying "b@$! w!#+s" and laughing like maniacs.
I don't tell them how much this amuses me, however, because they say it in all sorts of inappropriate times.

Can I say "assassinated"?
What about "buttbuttinated"?
Wet wipes for your tush? For your bum? For your bottom part (that's found in the middle)? Crevasse between the lower cheeks region? Place upon which you sit?
It's literally the name of a product...

I can't make out what was filtered out. The first word seems to be "ball," though.
I have a seven and a four year old, also! Seven year old will be eight this month, though.
EDIT: Oh, wait. Probably "but" with two Ts.

You are correct, sir! "Butt" followed by the word "wipes"!
EDIT: see? SEE! I know the word isn't censored! It's not censored! Why was I censoooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrred?!

I remember those. I think they were competing with the Subaru Brat.

I like turkey bacon more than bacon, ground turkey more than ground beef, and so on...I'm told this is weird.
I also like to put hot sauce on anything without enough flavor. I put it on mac n cheese, and once in a while, mashed potatoes.
I prefer oatmeal raw in milk like cereal rather than cooked. I don't like oatmeal consistency, but love oat flavor.

The fact that Paizo swears a new post by quibblemuch is here, me it’s entirely invisible.
I mean, this should also go in that other thread, but it amuses me, too. Did he make the post and delete it? Is it still present? What is the meaning of a post being new? Seems appropriate, really. (Tha could just be the flu medicine talking, though.)
