People with PhD's are usually eccentric in some way. I'm working on getting one myself, and I know I have a lot eccentricities.
I can't even think about leaving the house without a shower.
I tend to accentuate what I'm saying with intense hand gestures that sometimes get a little out there. I've had looks.
When I drink cider I get intensely aggressive. Last weekend, I was completely sloshed on the stuff and was playing pool. The owner came up and told me to take my beer off the pool table. To me, he said it in the most condescending way possible (though my friends say he didn't really say it that bad). Still, I got REALLY pissed and wanted to punch the guy. I had to leave and calm myself with a cheeseburger. This may seem like a small incident, but if you knew me you would know I am one of the least aggressive people around.
When I was little:
Once I decided it would be cool to melt one of my sister's dolls in the microwave. It wasn't that cool.
I practiced making out with a Styrofoam head once.
Ah, I forgot a good one:
A couple years ago I was taking a 20 hour road trip by myself and tried to finish it all in one go without stopping. I think that is the closest I got to going insane because I started making funny noises to myself and singing along to my music in the weirdest voice I could make and I was cracking myself up. I mean, I was really laughing hard...I started having trouble breathing I was laughing so hard, so that's when I decided to stop and rest.
