As a kid, I always counted seconds as "one one-hundred, two one-hundred, etc.", instead of the common "one one-thousand, two one-thousand, etc."

I've always worn my watch on my right hand, even though I'm right-handed.

I roll dice to decide how to spend my free time.

I don't know how to socialize, or even really properly converse with people face to face. Yet, I'm a semi-successful actor. Explain that, cuz I can't. o_0
Footnote: defining semi-successful as having done really well in acting school, and since then gotten a few roles from auditions, and even managed to score an agent. Which I guess isn't really that much success at all. :V

I enjoy writing essays and reading books I was made to read in school.

I hate the selfishness of the human race but I fall in love with the selflessness of humanity.

I've been known to disagree with myself.

I'm a pretty big oxymoron, most of the time.

I like being called weird.

That one isn't really all that weird, what with traditional acting and natural conversation being about as far removed from each other as possible while still resulting in the exchange of words. It comes down to the fact you've either memorized a script and are swapping lines with someone else reading a script (not an actual conversation by any means) or, if you are ad-libbing, selecting conversation from an exceptionally small pool of potential topics (once again unlike an actual conversation).

Basically you're great so long as you can control the conversation (or at least be sure the conversation won't become divergent from the topics you expect.).

I sometimes think I have no natural inclination toward socializing, but managed to crack the code, so to speak through brute mental force. I can socialize well, but have no real inclination to do so. I've also been told I'd make a great actor.

So if I sum up, you have a lot of breaths and you can hold your breath for a long time under water.

I use WASD for camera controls in dota 2 and QERT instead of QWER for spells.

My lung capacity isn't affected. My sense of smell is optional, that's all.

It wasn't until high school that I learned you're supposed to snap with the thumb and middle finger. I still can't whistle.
