Signs that you are comfortably out of the norm.

[Crysuko]

I am a massive reactionary. Possibly the most reactionary person on Nationstates.

Muscovite might challenge you for that. You just need to be an edgy depressive and he'll actively hunt you down.

I'm not that edgy, I just have intense moments of self-hatred due to unbearable loneliness which I can't escape even in my sleep.

[Xmara]

I just thought of some more.

I became really interested in deduction a while back (I know it's technically a misnomer but bear with me).

I also can remember other people's passcodes to their phones just by watching them type it in once (then again, most people I know have simple ones like 123456, so maybe not that weird).

I can bend the joints at the ends of my fingers without bending the other joints.

I didn't learn how to ride a bike until I was 14. I also had a lot of trouble learning to drive and I didn't get my license until I was 18.

Also when I was 14 I discovered I was allergic to a particular brand of allergy medicine, which I thought was pretty ironic.

I really wish I would have just listed all of my quirks and other weirdness in one post, but I keep forgetting some so I have to go back and add them.

You see, dor? He's challenging you now.

I'm not even a reactionary anymore though. Just because my life sucks doesn't make me a reactionary.

[Cantelo]

I feel like the fact that I play nationstates already puts me out of the norm, not to mention that demographically I'm probably even more of a minority on this site.

[Stellar Colonies]

The biggest thing I currently do with my free time is create clay maps and act out versions of world history with them.

[Heloin]

I was stopped from joining the International Battalion in Syria back in 2017 only because I missed my flight and couldn't afford another plane ticket.

How does one have that many encounters with quicksand?

I spent a lot of time exploring swamps and estuaries; often with friends that share an unspoken rule that if there are open pools of mud nearby, someone must be pushed/tackled into them.

I once had to get a coworkers truck out of quicksand because he though he could gun it across the marsh.

[The Free Joy State]

I've been interested in reading about religious cults since I was a child.

My hair is hip-length (it was longer, but I kept sitting on it). Which is outside the average at my age.

[Rojava Free State]

My favorite food is a Palestinian dish, and I'm not even palestinian. It's got rice, beef gravy and chicken in it

Also my favorite music genre is oi

Oh, you're a woman?

I mean, otherwise I'd also expect an "outside the average for my gender" as well. Because while some men do have long hair, it usually doesn't go much past the shoulders.

[Dumb Ideologies]

I'm a perfectly ordinary trans cryptofascist weeb thank you very much. Weirdos get out.

[Rost Dreadnorramus]

I hate myself and wish I would die in the most brutal way that humanity could ever come up with.

[Thasse]

I see time as a physical concept in my mind. Like the year is arranged in a certain way and different days/weeks/months feel like a different position on the map I see of a year.

[Cantelo]

I've come to think that I spend far too much time making the graphics for my factbooks, then hating them after a few days but being too stressed out to redo it because I'm an insanely tedious person with obsessive levels of attention to detail.

[Europa Undivided]

Hmmm...

I am very inclined towards world building and lore making when it comes to fleshing out the universe of the RP I am playing, that's one. Another is that I am not afraid of cuddling my guy friends (especially when we have a sleepover, lol)... which is often seen as a sign of being gay year in the Philippines, at least by the older generation. Buuuut I am much more open minded than most of my countrymen, so IDC lol

[Skyhooked]

Guess, if I describe my quirks, folks on this thread would say: "This dude gotta be locked up in a mental asylum."

[The Sapmi]

Am I the only one who likes milk straight from the fridge? I hate cream, and I love the cold that the fridge and the lack of cream that the red-cap provides.

I thought this was a pretty normal thing? I like cold milk at least. Room temperature is gross but warm is alright too.

I can barely stand drinking liquids that cold or colder...

SENSITIVE TEETH GANG

[Vetalia]

I like my coffee room temperature, neither hot or cold.

When I'm bored at work and have nothing to do I have recently started modeling the impacts of the change in air pressure on Mars during terraforming and draw little landscapes in an Excel spreadsheet with the melting ice caps, clouds, and progressively bluer skies due to increased Rayleigh scattering and less dust, and vegetation! I did it the other way showing the impact of Mars' atmospheric loss from its glory days in the Noachian era to the present but that got rather depressing after a while.

I have a lot of fun with the RANDBETWEEN function as well; sometimes it's a simulation of currency issuance and debasement under a series of fictional Roman emperors, other times it's a fictional stock market with some surprising speculative bubbles that pop up, other times it's colonization of a new land. When other people are reading articles online when they're bored, I'm calculating the fiscal excess of Emperor Gaius XII as a result of financing the Marcommanic Wars and projecting out just how much of his currency was still circulating at the time of the fall of the Empire (the dreaded 0 roll).

you're my spirit animal

I guess the signs for me would be that I don't particularly enjoy the degenerate hedonism of the modern world and I also have insane attachment issues also just my beliefs in general
as well as the fact I was suicidal at one point I guess

[Vetalia]

Pics?

Trust me, these are not impressive landscapes. I set the column width to 2 on Excel for a dozen rows and draw blocky images, slowly shading the sky based on expected RGB values over time in a Martian atmosphere without dust.

The other simulations are just numbers and Microsoft line charts, but the world behind them is in my head. Nothing clears the early afternoon brain fog quite like the numerical expansion of Amnian colonists into Maztica and an alliance with the shield dwarves to protect against the attacks from the jungles on the other side.
