18 "Weird" But Harmless Things That People Love To Do
Recently, u/Mountain-Taro-123 asked r/AskReddit"What's something weird, but harmless and non-NSFW that you're into?" And we thought we'd share some of the most popular responses.
1. "I had a girlfriend when I was 16 give me a stuffed frog. We broke up shortly after and that frog got tossed in the trunk of my car for some reason. The frog stayed in the trunk until I bought a new car, and it moved to that new trunk. I've had that same stuffed frog live in every vehicle I've ever owned for 27 years now. Never seen, never really even touched, just tucked away somewhere in my vehicle."

2. "Collecting rocks and giving my favourite ones to my wife who does not collect or want rocks."

3. "I really really enjoy picking up little creatures. I cannot help myself. If I see a misplaced worm or a beetle? I have to pick it up. I just I can't fight those demons. God forbid if it's a frog or a snail."

4. "I love Loomis armoured trucks. I never had friends all my life and when I used to carpool with my mom to college (she was a professor), our schedule matched perfectly with a Loomis truck and I would wave at it as it went by. Six years later I still cheer whenever I drive past one and if I see one while walking I'll go over and touch it. Every time I see Brinks or LaGuardia trucks I scowl at them since they take business away from Loomis trucks."

5. "I have a 'good luck dragon' Beanie Baby in my office that when I'm stuck on a development project, I explain the problem to in detail, and usually start to see things a bit differently or at least brainstorm solutions. He's blue with sparkles and he has a solid black brother. I occasionally switch them out."

6. "Went to a Renaissance festival with some friends and I finally bought a sword the way I've wanted since I was a kid. Do I need it for any reason? No. But I got a big fucking sword now."
– Ferris-7
New Line Cinema
7. "When I'm out for my daily walk, I like to pretend that all of my friends and loved one's are out there walking with me, both deceased and living. I pretend that I can see it as if it's a movie scene, and we're all walking together silently like we fuckin' know something the world doesn't. Used to really help when I was going through some stuff. Still helps now a bit."

8. "Vulture culture, I collect naturally cleaned bones/antlers/sheds, etc."

9. "When I use to work on the 10th floor at this company. I would fart in the elevator and send it down."
– DazzlingProfession24
10. "I like to take my Lego BB8 places and take pictures of it. I don't really have a lot of friends and I usually don't have the self esteem to take pictures of myself so BB8 comes with me and we have a great time adventuring."
– BasketOfBagels
Warner Bros. Pictures
12. "Cemetery walks. It's peaceful. There are interesting things to look at/read. I usually take a plastic grocery bag with me and pick up any trash I see."
– _procrastinatrix_
13. "Dancing in the grocery store when a really good song is playing. People look at me like I'm from Mars or something but I don't care. When I hear a good song, I groove to it."

15. "I love computer mice and collect them and learn about them and write reviews on them I'm weird."

16. "Pimple popping videos. Even worse, I have branched out to videos featuring pilonidal abscesses, pedicures, cow hoof draining, hair braiding, and dog grooming."

17. "I talk to myself. Normally I wouldn't even notice but as I run a conversation through my mind I'd end up saying the words, especially if I'm really concentrating on something, didn't even know I do it until my wife told me. Other than that I'm a fairly normal dude."

18. "I love grocery shopping in heels. Pushing the cart provides enough balance and the aisles are made for strutting. I feel so cool when I do this lol."
