Day 28 - That's weird

As I've addressed previously, I'm not very good at meeting new people. And so when I can, I like to use certain socializing tools that I've learned over the years, like asking questions about the other person. I feel that "tell me something interesting about yourself" is a great conversation starter because you never know what to expect.

When I am asked this question I tend to default to "I make YouTube videos." I tend to get a lot of questions out of that one. "What kind of videos do you make?" "You just talk to your camera in your room?" "Can I be in one of your videos?" etc.

And here are some of my other "interesting facts".

When I record videos I tend to finish with anywhere from 10 - 20 minutes of footage, which then get's edited down into a 2 - 3 minute video. I've got epic editing skillz. haha.

When I was in high school I was told dark soda ruins your voice, and so I gave it up for a few years. And now whenever I try to drink Pepsi, Coke, or Dr. Pepper it burns my throat going down. So I tend to shy away from dark sodas, which I suppose is a good habit. It's definitely a lot healthier, especially since a majority of what I drink is water.

I cannot stand kidney beans. I'm pretty sure it's a texture and taste thing. I find them very unappetizing, and will pick them out of whatever I'm eating. I actually don't like to eat whole beans at all. And I've never tried mashed kidney beans, so that could be it.

I eat my pizza, crust first. I have no idea when this start or why, but I don't care if you think it's backwards! haha.

I have a hard time keeping anything on my wrists other than hair bands because when I use my hands to type or write, I rest my wrists on the surface area of my computer or desk. And if I have something on my wrists it makes it uncomfortable.

I eat Peanut M&M's, peanuts first. I bite them in half, eat the peanut, and then eat the outside chocolate shell I won't eat them whole. #weirdiknow

I seldom watch television. Most of the shows I watch are no longer on air, and if they are I watch them on Hulu and Netflix. I just never really have time for TV.
