Part 3

Two previous parts were, let's say, focused on human behaviors. But it only involved some of the social groups. In this part I would like to concentrate on general public. It doesn't matter if it's about fans of techno music, pop or rock, people who drink coffee at home or in Starbucks. What do people do? My subjective review of 9 least interesting behaviours. ;)

  1. Not going to toilet, when you have to. Maybe it's weird, but who of you had more than once something more important to do than usual physiologic need?

  2. Taking photos from vacation of surroundings with a mascot in the foreground. Mainly by adults..

  3. Talking out loud with yourself when you're alone. Strange? But everyone does it.

  4. Constant coming back to the kitchen and checking the fridge, when you're hungry. Maybe somehow something appears in there?

  5. Playing farmville on Facebook. There's no easier way to show everyone, that you don't have a life. And it's a waste of time...

  6. Avoiding unlucky numbers. Missing floors in hotels, not existing seats in aeroplanes..Is there anything more insane?

  7. Taking photos of yourself from hand. The worst pictures ever, which are later uploaded on Facebook.

  8. Informing people on Facebook about EVERY single activity 24/7..and pretending, that you're not at home.

  1. Beautiful comic! I simply love it. "There are people who talk to themselves and learn a lot from the conversation" - brilliant :)

    I'm sure people do many silly things and it's hard to mention any of them, because thy are so common. One may be having TV turn on in every room and not watching it. I know people who do it and heard about many more.

    Reasons can be different, it depends on an activity and a person. Sometimes people heal their fears this way or they don't want to feel lonely.

    I do many stupid things. One of them is "multitasking". I do plenty of things in the same time because I'm obsessed with having not enough time. As a result I have many small accidents, like loosing tomato from my sandwich or falling at the closed door. Terrible.

    Sometimes I do first thing from the list. I noticed that plenty of children do it. They are so concentrated on things they do, that they simply have no time to go to toilet. I'm an adult, but my inner child is still alive ;)

  2. Do you know any other weird or stupid things people do That?
    1. Continuous checking email on different sites, over and over again ...
    2. Viewing in every glass on the road, usually in the windows of shops ...
    3. Closing before sleeping drawers, wardrobe ...

    - Have you ever done anything things listed from above?
    Of course, and which one? I do not confess: P

    - Why to people of all These Things?
    Just because ... Maybe habits from childhood, maybe some mental problems, who knows ...

  3. First situation happens to me very often :D I just have to finish something I am currently working on, and there is no time to go to WC as I can lost my thread etc. It always ends the same way - running to WC in very last moment.
    I am not talking to myself even when I am alone, may happen that I am thinking this way but not talking. I have not played farmiville due to lack of time and fact that I am not visiting facebook very often.
    It happens also very often to me that I check the drawer in which there should be some sweets, or fridge for food (even that I know that there will be nothing because I checked it hour before).
    I hate those "śłitaśne foteczki z dziubkiem"... - no comment here
    One more strange behaviour I can tell is that there are some people that watch some programme on TV, they comment it how they do not like it, complain on it - but they will not switch the channel. This is quite annoying

  5. Perfect point of view.
    I do really like all of those freaky things. And actually I'm addicted to few of them.
    I use to talk to my self. I don't why. Maybe I want to talk with somebody smart? Somebody who is at the same level of knowledge.

    Also I really like to observe the people and find something new (new freaks). By the way... can you tell me, what is the common people habit when they staying in a traffic jam, driving alone?

    - nose picking.
    Just observe next time when you'll be traveling.

    About cartoons and wired things. I love Garfield. Everybody knows him, I'm hundred percent sure. That's a short episodic cartoon about fatty, lazy cat witch identified all wired topical human behaviors and habits. Created many years ago by Jim Davis. What is characteristic? We have one cartoon for every day.

  6. Facebook and another social portals are the great place for developing a narcissism. Everyone can be a star and show himself in any way even if they are unreal. I know that for thinking people it is just a convenient medium of communication but at the same time it is showing and increasing a social disease. I don't have Facebook and I am sure that around me there is hardly no one in my age (24)who also resigned something so popular and modest. I know what that choice feels like. I am a little bit pushed aside the fellowship and I have to make a bigger effort to keep an acquaintance. It is not that I think that Facebook is an evil and that is why I don't want to have it. Frankly speaking I really loathe such a mass things. I don't want to participate in something that makes from our life a catalogue of friends, passions, things we like... I don't want to count my friends and I don't want to be counted. I know that for many people it sounds stupid and irrational but it is just me.
    I know that I am writing irrelevant but due to your presentation I just have made that reflection:)

  7. I think that most of the absurdities can be traced back with us throughout the country. For me it is strange that, for example, a mechanic, cheating the customer, does not fix the vulnerability as it should, do not buy new parts - so you do not respect the law. It's probably weirder than checking the fridge, when I'm hungry.

  8. What else can I mention? Maybe looking at the mirror, anywhere you find it, washing hands in every half hour...

    From the things above, I have caught my self on coming back to the kitchen and checking the fridge, even if I know that there is nothing there. It happen more often when I was single;)

    About 2 years ago, I used to play poker on Facebook and loosing many hours on it. I quit it when I stopped use Facebook..

    Why people do this weird things? I have no idea, probably because they like to involve in something...

  9. I think this presentation contains everything and nothing else come into my head. Each person is different, that's human nature.
    Personally, I try not to be superstitious and do not waste time on unnecessary things.

  10. hmmm... number 4 sounds familiar ;]

    ReplyDelete
  11. I have to admint that number 4 is really close to me ;). It is uncontrolled behaviour. When i am in kitchen I allways look into fridge, nobody knows what am I looking for there. I thing it is the same like with swithing off the light going out from toilet, even in someone else is still inside ;).

    This one with farville and facebook can be translated other way. There are milion of people working in front of the monitor. Every kind of entertanment is for them like a miracle. In my opinion this is why farmville was so popular not so long ago. To be honest, when i was in work, I was playing too ;).

    There is many other wird human behaviours you did not mention. Like singing in shower or stamping feet. This is just a human nature. Every one is different and the same every one is special, and we have to accept it :)

  12. Another thing is to constantly check the who, what he wrote on Facebook. I know that many people can spend the whole day, of course, without any effect.
    Personally, I do not do any of these things. I can not even recall the situation, which can be wired. I do not know how someone can go to the refrigerator and just look if there is something new. Yes, I happen to walk into the refrigerator when I'm hungry, but it's in search of "inspiration" what to eat.
    The reason why people are doing may be habit, or their nature.

  13. I love that "Talking out loud with yourself when you're alone. Strange? But everyone does it." !! :D
    I don't make any thing that you showed here, but i did many other ;) that sometimes I fell ashamed!
    I agree with Jan about "The reason why people are doing may be habit, or their nature." It's our simply nature ;)

  14. I think I do such thing I collect 10zł bill. I iron each one from both sides and than smash them in special created by myself box that has the same size as the bill. And there is one more thing each bill must be a change after schopping.
