Things you do when no one is looking

Sometimes I think I’m strange or childish because I do these things when no one is around but surely people do things when no ones looking either šŸ˜‚

Dance in the house
Make all sorts of expressions in the mirror
Lay on the floor after a long day
Put the bread knife back in the draw because bread is ā€˜clean’ 😳

your turn.

Pull my knickers out my bum šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

SheWoreYellow · 22/06/2022 19:09

Pull the face that the character in my book would be doing.

Talk to myself. Masks were great because I could do it in public. Have had to retrain myself not to do it.

Skinnermarink · 22/06/2022 19:10

Run up the stairs on all fours like a dog.
But we don’t have stairs anymore. So I have to do it when no one is watching when I visit my parent’s house 🤣 my DH saw me do it once but it was too late as we were married by then.

PlanetNormal · 22/06/2022 19:11

Post shite like this on Mumsnet.

I do this both up and down!

Offandonagain · 22/06/2022 19:12

Picking my nose.
Eating peanut butter out of the jar.

OP I also put the bread knife back

PissPotPourri · 22/06/2022 19:13

Make rude gestures behind dh’s back when he’s annoyed me.

Oh my god I’ve never tried it going down šŸ¤”šŸ¤£

Skinnermarink · 22/06/2022 19:14

yep bread is clean, a little dust off with a tea towel is all you need for the knife.

Definitely do this on a daily or pulling it out of my front bumšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

EmbroidedFlowers · 22/06/2022 19:18

Smile at myself when I catch my reflection in a mirror šŸ¤“
And I sing broadway songs a lot

Puffalicious · 22/06/2022 19:25

I roll my eyes at people who think it's a draw. In public I would never dream of correcting anyone. Perhaps because in my accent you would never get them confused as we use a hard r.

Otherwise- pick my nose (one of the most glorious things on Earth), fart really loudly, drink juice with a tea spoon!

StrictlyAFemaleFemale · 22/06/2022 20:56

Pick my nose.

Sylaby · 22/06/2022 21:06

Lick the left over nutella off the knife.

Furrbabymama1987 · 22/06/2022 21:08

Fart. Eat chocolate spread out the jar. Scratch my bum and sniff. Tmi but you asked šŸ˜‚

Heytheredeliah · 22/06/2022 21:26

I run up the stairs on all fours too!
I scratch my head
Sing songs to myself
I sniff my underarms

Bonjovispjs · 22/06/2022 21:32

Pick my nose and scratch my bum (doesn't everyone?😜) I also talk to objects, the other day I told a saucepan lid off for falling on the flooršŸ˜‚

XenoBitch · 22/06/2022 21:34

Have a full on treasure hunt in my nostrils.

🤣🤣🤢 my 6yo does this! I fortunately grew out of it šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Adeleskirts · 22/06/2022 22:38

You need to be really careful you are alone. A few weeks ago I got up, popped the kettle on, went out the back, let off a loud fart, made a sort of weird open legged squatting gesture as I pulled my knickers out my back side then turned round to go back in the house and realised the window cleaner was up his ladder next door and watching me.

honestly I couldn’t even style it out. It was so so bad.

pushingpoppies · 22/06/2022 22:39

Sit there with my hands in my pants like (some) blokes do

ChagSameachDoreen · 22/06/2022 22:40

Suck my thumb and twiddle my Lala (a grimy old ribbon) on my nose.

polkadotneedsachange · 22/06/2022 22:41

Knickers cannot be left wedged in
Bread knife wiping is not a crime in my book

I do this - such a comfy way to relax - my friend caught me doing this once and thought it was hilarious.
