I usually do that too, unless I'm very tired and done with rude freeloaders, then I just log off and finish listening to the song off cam.When it's time for me to log off, I usually wait for the current song to finish playing.
On cam or just in regular everyday life?
In regular everyday life: The clothes I have hanging in my closet...I arrange them in order of the ROYGBIV colors (the colors of the rainbow).
At the store when I'm grabbing an item from the shelf, instead of taking the one that's up front (Let's say...a bottle of lotion), I'll reach behind that one to grab the one that's second or third...because I figure other people have probably had their hands all over it, and may have been squeezing it onto their hands...which is emptying the contents from the bottle. Lol.

I have ADHD and in order to focus on a conversation I often grab anything that is close to my hands and mindlessly play with it, grope it, shake it around. The thing is, during streams it usually ends up being a sex toy. So I often catch myself talking about something completely non-sexual while vigorously jerking my dildo or performing CBT on it.
Whichever you like.
Imagining myself in front of my closet hanging clothes, red and yellow and green and blue and cursing as a blue shirt slips off its hangar and drops to the back!
I hang up the halter tops and tank tops so that they come before the short-sleeve shirts...followed by the long-sleeve shirts...then the dresses...then the pajamas. Lol. I have a blue-green shirt with stars on it, and you should've seen me standing there trying to decide whether to put it in with the blues or with the greens.
A ridiculous thing I do is...like if I have all $1 bills in my purse...I arrange them in alphabetical order of the serial number on the bills. Yes, I'm aware that that shit isn't normal at all. It's weird as fuck...to put it bluntly.
Is this not a normal thing? I thought literally everyone did this because the items at the front may as well be free sample'sAt the store when I'm grabbing an item from the shelf, instead of taking the one that's up front (Let's say...a bottle of lotion), I'll reach behind that one to grab the one that's second or third...because I figure other people have probably had their hands all over it, and may have been squeezing it onto their hands...which is emptying the contents from the bottle.

I had a part-time job working in a supermarket while in high school; we were always taught when restocking the shelves that you filled from the rear, moving the oldest items forward from the back to the front to sell it before use by date. So as a customer, taking the first in line can often mean you're getting the oldest stock. High volume items not so much of an issue, but worth looking at a few use-by dates to see the difference by shelf position.Is this not a normal thing?

I pull the bathroom light switch on/off twice before entering. Always have. Don’t know why? :/
Some of the lazier kids would just fill new items from the front, rather than rotate it, so the stuff at the back could get pretty old. Then when someone did it *properly*, the really old stuff appeared and sometimes was well past UBD. Bit of a lottery what you got if you didn't check!FIFO (first in, first out)
Oh yeah, we used to see a lot of chilled/frozen stuff getting left elsewhere at ambient temp, and then put back for sale.Also, go backs are usually put in the very front when employees return items customers leave on random shelves. It only takes one moldy frozen pizza to stop grabbing the first one in line.
I saw a carton of eggs left on a bread shelf that were well past room temp. I threw them away in the floral department garbage bin as I walked by, no way I was trusting an employee to destroy them and shrink it.Some of the lazier kids would just fill new items from the front, rather than rotate it, so the stuff at the back could get pretty old.

Wait what? Why would you throw away eggs because they’re room temp? Were they out of date? So confusedI saw a carton of eggs left on a bread shelf that were well past room temp.

I also check the dates on dry goods/canned goods.
Here in the US, we have to refrigerate (store-bought) eggs or they go bad. Some pasteurization something somethingWait what? Why would you throw away eggs because they’re room temp? Were they out of date? So confused
I'll add (just because I have watched episodes of Dirty Jobs about commercial hens laying). Eggs in the US are washed, removing the protective barrier for bacteria growth that naturally occurs when an egg is laid. If you had a chicken and it laid an egg you could keep it at room temp for up to a week.Here in the US, we have to refrigerate (store-bought) eggs or they go bad.

Wow I had no idea, that seems counter productive then I wonder why they wash them!I'll add (just because I have watched episodes of Dirty Jobs about commercial hens laying).

It has to do with cross contamination regulations in the United States. Chickens produce eggs through a cloaca. They also poop through that opening and chicken poop carries salmonella and other bacteria. Millions of unwashed chicken eggs could create a massive outbreak of salmonella poisiong, also known as food poisoning which can be deadly if fluids can't be retained through IV or other medical interventions.Wow I had no idea, that seems counter productive then I wonder why they wash them!
Yeah me too! I have always done this.Is this not a normal thing? I thought literally everyone did this because the items at the front may as well be free sample's
Only need roosters if you want (new) chickensAlso had chickens when I was a kid at my dad's place. No rooster needed for egg production, btw.
Wow is that Coles or Woolies that refrigerates eggs? I shop at IGA and they're not chilled, at least my local store!once they have been refrigerated (in the supermarket)
Both I suspect. But yes once refrigerated it is adivsed to conrtinue that method of storage, for the reason you staetd I expect.Wow is that Coles or Woolies that refrigerates eggs? I shop at IGA and they're not chilled, at least my local store!
