Name banal things you do that give you great pleasure

Affable

For me, it's dipping my finger in the bottom of a milkshake where the mix is thick and stuck in the bottom. Then licking it. I'm doing that nowish funnily enough.

Is there something feminine about sticking one's finger in a milkshake?

So I have to give each banal thing that gives me pleasure a name?

Making tea- Trevor
Taking a dump- Malcolm
Lighting a fag- Simon
Going to bed- Oliver

Will that do?

Well, I've never had a guy looking to stick his fingers in my thick milkshake and then taste it. Known a couple of girls who liked it though ... ¬_¬

I could play with my laptop for hours. I like to poke the screen with a pen, and eject the DVD drive over and over again, take out keys and put them back to spell out naughty words, turn the bluetooth switch on and off again and again and try to balance it on one finger.

I once spent a ridiculous amount of time sat on my couch seeing how long I could balance a lighter on my nose a couple of hours after I received some mail from Amsterdam...

Unfortunately, the couch was situated in the living room of my ground floor apartment which had a great big patio door that looked out onto the main street of the village I was living in at the time.

I only realised what I was doing when one member of the large gathering of schoolchildren from the school down the road that had amassed outside said window, knocked on the aforementioned patio door.

Good times.

BTW, before any of you ask, it was one of them mini Homestead lighters... and I can't remember what my best time was...

I love taking a messy dump in a pristine public lavatory and leaving her there.

Get me up and running for the day thinking of the reaction of the next patron or attendant "Uuuuurgh,that barster fairly cleaned out his guts sho' 'nuff , filthy fecker".

Must be like marking one's territory or sommat.

Watching gulls stamp on the ground to convince worms that it's raining, so they can eat them when they come to the surface. Suckers!

Is that code for something? If not then it should be.

Walking downhill with the right shoes and socks combination. I don't know why but you can feel it in the back of your teeth if you get it right.

Organising my things....that might be more obsessive compulsive than banal...

Like, organising my comic books, making sure they're all in bags and boards, in the right order, and making sure I have the different titles in the right order i.e: Green Lantern and Green Lantern Corps in the same section, all the 5 and 6 part stories in the same section etc

Then arranging my books on a book shelf so they look asthetically pleasing to me, Big books on the left, small ones in the middle and big ones on the right

Folding up my bus tickets in certain ways and leaving them on the bus...I have no idea why I like doing it!!

KBarry

Having a good root out around in my ears. If there are no cotton buds available then hairclips (think they are called Kirby clips) are excellent. I also sometimes use the non-pointy end of a pen or toothpick. Mmmmm, clean ears....

biko

Taking a big dump after when I have had to wait a long time (driving, movies, etcetera).

JangoFett

Thats really dangerous...the ear thing, not the dumping thing

Removing the "b" in the title of this thread makes it SO wrong.

The dump thing, which isn't dangerous, I once had constipation for *ages* and it did nothing to me but mild discomfort...

Also finding sites in work that aren't blocked by Websense. Wait, thats not banal, its extremely important!

I'll see your arse-scratching, and raise you one sack-scratching. No matter how much you scratch, there's still more! Hours of entertainment.

I also enjoy repeatedly hitting myself on the forehead with solid objects. I have no idea why (and I can hit pretty hard before it gets too sore), but it's good fun.
