Has anyone here adopted strange little habits similar to those of the Master? I, for one, keep my pipe tobacco in a Persian slipper, work better bedded down in a nest of pillows than at a desk, and make a habit of being as cryptic as possible for the sake of seeing people's faces...

Anyone else do odd stuff like that, or am I all alone in that regard?

I live in an apartment that looks like Martha Stewart's vision of the ninth circle of Hell. Does that count? mrgreen
Piles & piles of books, magazines, DVDs, art projects, a 15-ft. scarf I'm in progress knitting into about 18-20 ft.... rolleyes

I'm forced to wonder whether you and I might possibly live in similar nuclear-disaster zones, Eirwyn... My wife actually set on me with a broom the other day.

And my elder cousin has moved in with me, and he's rather Watsonish. (Watsonish? *goes to locate dictionary*) And I used the chem lab at school to make tea the other day. It was more than slightly chlorinic. gonk

'Least I don't have ancient cans of beans under my sink like Erik. And if I did, I wouldn't eat them. He's lucky to be alive. xp

I eat what I must to survive. It was either that or the can of haggis Cork sent me as a joke... I thought I might be safer going with the beans.

...Maybe Margaret would've let you nibble on one of her less important fridge critters. Sounds better than the beans.

Sure, you could've pan-fried you some frog legs! mrgreen
I have a friend from Louisiana who says that frog legs twitch & kick in the pan when you fry them. lol gonk

I've heard that formaldehyde isn't all that tasty, though. Not to mention it being lethal. *pokes foetal pig with scalpel* stressed

Maybe if he fried it long enough...? Aw, hell! Preschoolers are lethal too, and I've come out of four weeks with 'em more or less alright! -currently has some random ambiguous rash from one kid whose mother decided to send her to camp with spots and claim that it was only mild eczema- Eczema my a**...

*boils freeze-dried frog with tomatos and large onion chunks* Doesn't look too bad...

I so totally got a 'Consulting Detective' mug from the Baker Street museum. Now I can chug down caffeinated beverages in style.

I thought you were cutting down on the caffeine? Bad Erik! Drop the coffee, now!

Or tea. Ah, caffeine. What a college student lives by.

College students and teachers both. And, to judge from popular media, so do journallists, most scientists and a good percentage of the pencil-pushing community.
