| | BATON PASSING: WIERDEST BEHAVIOUR
I've seen this 'baton passing' many times on other people's
blog, but I never thought it will come to me. Nevermind that some
batons are actually a series of specific questions to be answered, but
no... this specific baton ask me to specify my five wierdest habits!
That's such an open question! Thank you to HappyLagenda or Legendria for it.
Since my england is getting badder all the time, I've decided to look up the definition of 'habit', and it says: -
a. An unconscious pattern of behavior that is acquired through frequent repetition
b. An established disposition of the mind or character.
Alright then, it's either actions or even mental disposition. Meaning,
thinking of KFC all the time can be considered a habit, no? Aish...
england already badding, now have to use my brain pulak. Before I
start, I will have to say that I DO NOT have a weird habit. It's
totally natural to me, only weird to others. So I will write what I
think would seem weird to others.
1. I like to remember, advice or apply life and motivation quotes from
movies. While most good quotes should come from well-known people like
Steven Covey, Theodore Roosevelt, Dr Mahathir or bin Laden, I totally
still prefer to bring out quotes from movies or books, such as what
I've written in previous posts before. "Freedoommmm.... - Braveheart"
Haha.. no lar! Actually it's more to "Don't dwelve on the past, lest
you forget to live. - Harry Potter 1" or "I love my life, I love my
wife, and I wish you my kind of life. - Jerry Maguire's boss" and
others lah, I malas to think of them now!
2. Walking while talking on the handphone. My Executive
Chairman also does it, but not the other two directors of my company.
My wife hates this habit of mine.  Somehow or rather, walking
aimlessly while talking on the handphone stimulates nerves and motors,
thus pumping more blood to the brain for faster processing of data and
making my england badder. 
3. Eat, Drink, Eat, Drink, Eat. There are tons of articles and studies
saying that one should eat their meal first, and then wash it down with
their drink. I have this colleague who only orders food during lunches, and later
drinks when she gets back to the office. I cannot! These people must
have oily throats for all their food to go down easily. I need my drink
to help the peristalsis.
4. Read in the toilet... eh wait, more than 50% of the world population
does this. It's not a weird habit. CANCEL.... Again... Singing old
nursery rhymes or old catchy songs in my head. Few months ago was "Loo
loo, skip to my loo... skip to my loo my darling." Belardy weird song!
Last month was "How much is that doggie in the window? woof woof." And last week it was
"Kain Pelikat... la.la.la.la", and this week it's "This is the song
that doesn't end... yes, it goes on and on my friend.... some people
started singing not knowing what it was.... and they'll continue
singing it forever just because.... This is the song that doesn't
end... yes, it goes on and on my friend... some people started singing
not knowing what it was... and they'll continue singing it forever just
because... [repeat]". This song is a classic I tell you!! The best song
to irritate your parents during a long journey in the car.
5. Lastly, I don't follow instructions. Yes, this is a habit, because I
don't follow instructions very often. Be it electrical good's manuals,
rules and guidelines of doing something... and even this email. I will
NOT send this baton to five persons because I have not seen anyone
running the 4x400meters where the runner breaks the baton into five and
passing it to five different people. Think about it. Runner one passes
to five others. The other five becomes twenty-five. Then the last
runners will be 125 people. Just to run in the 4x400, each country
would need to send a contingent of 156 runners. Also, the final lap of
the 4x400 finals of the olympics will have 500 people running. Cwazee....
So.... this baton will only be passed to one person. Why I chose this
person is because she have been hardworking enough to answer all batons
passed to her. Not sure if she's done this, coz' if she has, then well,
pass it back, I'll find another victim. The person in mind is KookyCookie
who will jump with glee and prance around knowing that she gets this
baton. She will prance around like the Prancing Whores in her Screw-Dia
Cookierarie.
But wait!!! Being the long-winded fella that I am, I'm continuing this
post. Gasp! I now will state THREE habits that I do find weird in others.
1. Eating Dhal. No... not Sophie Dahl! I'm sure many of you would love
to see someone eating Sophie Dahl, but what I'm talking about is the
roti canai and dhal. I have one friend who, after finishing his roti
canai, will drink all the leftover dhal from the bowl. On another end
of the spectrum, I have one friend who dips only 1mm x 1mm of his cebisan
roti canai into his dhal. I can bet that even after eating 50 roti
canai, there'll be more than 75% of dhal left.
2. Touching or caressing their shoes. Not many do this at all, but
they exist. And usually you can find them at cafe's during lunches,
where most business talks happen. What am I trying to say?!? Imagine this (because
it really happens!!), two dudes in long-sleeves with ties sitting at
the cafe chairs chatting. One dude crosses his legs (guy version of
crossing legs please), and one of his hand rests at the sock area of
that leg. Slowly, his hands will go towards his shoes, starts to rub it
as if it's dirty, and then touch at the bottom of his shoes, not
realising what he's doing. Unconsciously, he's CLEANING his shoes! And
then he'll bring that same hand to his mouth to pull away some meat
between his teeth, or brush his hair. Eeeewww... but hey, it happens!
3. Strangers looking at the food you're eating! This is not a weird habit, but a
superbly irritating one! Try eating at any foodcourts in shopping
complexes or restaurants, and you'll meet some people who just love
staring at the food you ordered. They will stare from the moment the
food leaves the waiter's hand, up until you put your first bite into
it. Hello! People eating lah. Look somewhere else can or not?!
Watchoo lookin'at, foo?! Aku bagi kang! Terajang kang, telanjang!
p/s: Please pray that my england will get gooder.
