To ask what things you do, that you think are completely normal, that have caused others to be shocked/disgusted?

[HappilyChatterly]

Sat in the staff room tucking into a kiwi, like you do, or rather like I do...chomping it like an apple. Everyone was horrified! Apparently you eat it with a spoon like a boiled egg... I can see why, the skin is minging but I alwa?s thought it was worth it for the delicious flesh. My family all eat it that way, never occurred to me there was anything odd about, I thought it was just the way it had to be done.

I'm really paranoid now there are other things I'm doing that are weird and disgusting. Please post your own experiences so I can tick them off the list.

oh and I've just skipped/galloped to the kitchen, tripped over said cat and stubbed my toe on f'ing washing machine!!

Crisps in all sandwiches

I add vinegar to egg yolk and baked bean juice and mop it all up with a slice of bread and butter

Put potato waffles in pitta bread and smother with salt and vinegar before wolfing it down

Put burger cheese between fried ham and egg on toast so it melts

I read on the loo all time. And I couldn't bear to read the ending before the rest of the book. I also usually have 2-3 books on the go at the same time, very occasionally more.

all the time

Leaving my baby outside in the bram if I am sitting at a cafe or at home... Apparently people in the uk thinks it's horrible. Where I come from, everybody does it, it's good for the baby to get fresh air

The smell of my dog just behind his ears is heaven, but also love the smell of my Lo smelly feet especially when they are still damp

I got into the habit of putting things in my bra strap, but this went onto putting things into my waistband, especially in the summer when I go on walks without a coat. Luckily I was shocked into stopping this when a poo bag had wondered down to my fanjo and was discovered by my OH who wanted to get down and dirrrrty later that day I use a bum bag now

I love the smell of wet towels.

I'm allergic to kiwi fruit :(

I always put my lighter in my bra strap when I've nipped out for a sneaky cig at work. I occasionally take my bra off to put my pyjamas on and a lighter will drop out.

Banana and crisp sandwiches are ace.

Apologies if this has already been said, but don't keep your mobile in your bra!!!

To those who keep things in their bras:

1. Keys?! Don't they hurt?
2. How do you get enough space?

3.Don't your breasts get a very funny shape.

1. To answer your phone in public, do you casually jam your hand down your cleavage and look for it?

Looks like I am on my own with running up the stairs holding my boobs! It more common on here to go up the stairs on all fours !

I wee in the shower. Urine is sterile (unless you have a bladder infection, which I don't) and goes straight down the plughole. Shower rinses it thouroughly afterwards. My DH would be mortified if he knew.

Chewing food for my toddlers.

My mother did if or me and my gran for her when we were little, so seemed very natural to pre-chew tough food for my Los if they couldn't manage.
Seemed perfectly normal to me and my toodlers would ask if they needed abit of chewing help. OH got used to it but I suspect others may be grossed out.

Frankie I hold my boobs too going up the stairs, it's not just you

ItalianWiking84 - leaving a baby in the street in a pram while yo are in a cafe- isn't that a bit risky?

I eat ice like others eat sweets, it is really relaxing!
DH and I love jam and cheese on toast
I add sour cream dip to anything I can get away with.
Non food related, DH had psoriasis and I find it relaxing to peel away the loose skin

Frankie, don't worry I do it too. I think I'm trying to stop gravity

I drink strong black coffee at any time of day and night (just finished a lovely large mug) and then sleep like a log. Apparently this is very wrong.

GigiDarcy - I like to pop DFiance's spots on his back. Or legs. (Even a couple of times on his bum). I don't get many and it's therapeutic!

He doesn't understand

Remembering my wonderful granny.

Granny ate the kiwi with the skin on, every time wrinkling her nose in disgust and saying "it's just like eating a mouse".

YY Frankie...me too. No bra on in the house, so yes, need some 'help' going up and downstairs.

Also use bra as a bag when I have got one on. Tuck things into the armpit side...tissue, phone, not keys though..uncomfy.

Eat crisps dipped in salad cream. Or buttered white bread dipped in (packet) of bread sauce. Comfort food on a rainy day.

Another one for cereal cocktail here.

atthestrokeoftwelve- why should it be risky? I am from Denmark and it's perfectly normal to do there and I can honestly not see the risk in it.

tampons in bra is genius

no more surrupticious trips to loo at work with giant handbag that basically declares IM MENSTRUATING
